Players are all good footballers. They haven’t a clue what they’re supposed to be doing on the pitch.
Are the not? Simms looking lost again, players not looking up for it. Seems like exactly her side of things.
Great argument. My football knowledge is far superior to yours, the IRA apologist...
Parklife is a comment from people with the attention span of gnats.
We're 4 games inI think we've had great chances last season and also this season but fluffed it by not getting the centre midfield right on both occasions.
No lifePARKLIFE
We’ve spent 45m - the targets are not impossible whatsoever. Top 6 is a progressive target and attainable.Just like I said earlier, in another thread. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". I thought the change of structure at the top was wrong, and AV's going was weird.
I got taken to account by that. It still stands though. No last second Haji goal against Oxford then:
P:4 W:0 D:2 L:2
I now believe Robins will go by Xmas. Not because he will be sacked. But simply because he hasn't got a Offsider yet, and he will reasonably think he can't do this stupid 3/5 top six in the next what have you seasons on his own. He will just FO and we will realise after what a great manager we had.
Even we are starting to believe the impossible that King pushed on Robins. It's insane.
It was pathetic by King and pathetic by us to expect everything at once.
You obviously think money buys anything. And. of course, it doesn't.We’ve spent 45m - the targets are not impossible whatsoever. Top 6 is a progressive target and attainable.
2 years ago Sunderland, Ourselves and Luton didn’t spend anywhere near that and made the play offs.
Just because you’re happy to just be here doesn’t mean the rest of us are. We want to keep progressing. Robins has a target - he’s been given the tools to reach it. He isn’t walking out on a 4 year contract either
You obviously think money buys anything. And. of course, it doesn't.
You could buy 11 of the best players in the world, but it doesn't make a team does it. If you even thought that, then you lose your own argument. Because, in your world, we wouldn't need a manager anyway.
It doesn’t buy anything but it buys better players, but then it would be the manager’s job to get the better players to work together. If he can’t do that he’s not doing his job correctlyYou obviously think money buys anything. And. of course, it doesn't.

His point was that we spent 45m. I struggle to see where you didn't see that considering that was his first words.You’re just backing up his point that the managers job is to gel the side
With 45m spent - the expectation with that goes up. We’re not shopping around in the odds and sods anymore. the players are better.His point was that we spent 45m. I struggle to see where you didn't see that considering that was his first words.
Only if you have a good management team. We are short of one. Geez, this is like Groundhog day.With 45m spent - the expectation with that goes up. We’re not shopping around in the odds and sods anymore. the players are better.
So is Robins good enough or what?Only if you have a good management team. We are short of one. Geez, this is like Groundhog day.

Of course he is, more that enough for us. I mentioned that many pages ago. He needs a new Offsider, and quick.So is Robins good enough or what?
it’s a little more nuanced than that, as you know.
but typically enough SBT lurches to a black or white sensationalist question.
Well if he’s good enough he can take a 45m squad and get them in play offs. I wouldn’t take more than 5 other teams squads in this league.Of course he is, more that enough for us. I mentioned that many pages ago. He needs a new Offsider, and quick.
I agree on the squad, more than good enough despite being left short in midfield. Think Matty James would actually help settle that down a lot and should be easy to do, so lets see what happens.Well if he’s good enough he can take a 45m squad and get them in play offs. I wouldn’t take more than 5 other teams squads in this league.
individual players yes but not squads

To be honest while I don’t robins going anywhere would be fascinated to see who we’d want in as the new manager. Imagine it would be given to a young managerHonestly there’s always been two questions around Robins;”: can he do it without Viveash and can he do it at a higher level with more money. Both are tested this year.
With timescales being what they are, if we fall well short again this year, and with the likely sales in the summer, I think it would make more sense to give the rebuild job to a new manager. Big if though. I’ve got faith he can turn it around. But turn it around he must.
Sort of with you mate. He needs to show up if he decides to go on his own. But his other option is probably easier, given his reputation. He just won't have to wait for a good job.Honestly there’s always been two questions around Robins;”: can he do it without Viveash and can he do it at a higher level with more money.

Wonder if he’d want another one after us to be honest.Sort of with you mate. He needs to show up if he decides to go on his own. But his other option is probably easier, given his reputation. He just won't have to wait for a good job.
100% you’re one of these just happy to stay up this yearI'm guessing you are an Accountant.
100% you weren't even close. Anyway, happy to disagree.100% you’re one of these just happy to stay up this year
Of course he is, more that enough for us. I mentioned that many pages ago. He needs a new Offsider, and quick.
I honestly think he loves Coventry, simply because he came back when he did. He has always spoken of affection toward the club. I think he will stick it out, and wait for a decent left hand man to give him a hand.Wonder if he’d want another one after us to be honest.
Right hand man?Wtf is an Offsider? Is it like a Huckerby or Bellamy?

Robins isn’t going to walk at any point. He has a 4 year contract on probably lucrative termsTo make the playoffs 3 times out of 5 is very challenging for any club without parachute payments. It's essential to have targets in any job but they have to be realistically achievable.
If we were to achieve 3 out of 5 but not get promoted would that then be viewed as failure?
It ultimately depends on MR's relationship with Doug, but I wouldn't be surprised if he decides himself to go at some point in this or next season.
