Do you honestly think if promotion dose not come this season things will in prove we will have less supporters which means less cash for Robins to spend (Waste). We will lose the better players, players who we might attract by going up will go elsewhere. If we do not go up I think next season the only way to look will be down the division
Oh and the loans don't seem to have worked .
He gave Burge and Haynes new contracts aswell.The only area of potential waste of funds would for me be Beavon ,Vincenti potentially.
I did wonder If we needed all the CB's but the evidence says I was wrong.
Damn him to hell!!!He gave Burge and Haynes new contracts aswell.
I wouldn't say he's wasted money. His signings have been pretty good on the whole. For me it's purely tactics, and it seems to have been since Steve Taylor was taken ill.
To be fair, looking at it in the cold light of day I was probably a bit harsh. He's had horrendous luck with long term injuries (who rather than how many). We lack creativity at the moment but I'd be willing to bet if we still had Jones & Andreu available we'd be higher up the league and the football would be better. Nazon was the other creative player and with him gone it's left us devoid in that area. The attempts to replace that creativity haven't been successful but the January window is difficult. He's also missing his trusted number 2 which will affect even the best managers.
The stability notion is a myth, most clubs rinse through managers in a two year period , we just need the right manger at the right time
Who? Burge or Haynes?Damn him to hell!!!
He who gave new contracts to Burge and Haynes.Who? Burge or Haynes?
Where do you get when we get next years budget from ? it will be minimal even if we sell a couple of starlets and recieve a windfall from Maddison and/or Callum Wilson and that’s the fundermentle problem we will be selling players like Bayliss possibly McNulty and bringing in freebies in the hope they deliver.I think Robins is doing ok obviously atm we are on a downturn with everyones hopes set to high we are at this moment feeling a little down but as I have said a few times now it takes time to build a team, we appear to have a decent budget but that doesnt mean how much we buy a player for its how much his initial cost is and then wages to get him to play for our team. We missed out on other players probably because we didnt break our wage structure to bring in mercenaries although those mercenaries may have brought us more success but I guess this was more a business decision than calculated risk.
When our budget comes around for next season obviously we have the nucleus of a decent team so we should be able to attract the players needed to compliment what we already have, remember its not great atm to be a Cov fan (may or not be better after today) but Robins has given us more highs in this tenure than many other recent managers lets cut him some slack for those highs ar least

I thought this earlier in the season, very early on in the season Steve Taylor was taken out the picture and I feel it's made a impact. This is MR trusted right hand man. He looked lost for a while without him. Adi Vivesh I don't rate too much for the level were at tho he's played around this level in his playing days.
Maybe a Andy Morrell type of assistant next season would be better than a high level youth team coach should Steve Taylor still be absent.
Things come in three's they say, Taylor, JJ, Andreu all along term victims this season. A curse, bad luck or another season at ccfc.
I'm always curious when people make an assessment of the assistant manager. What do you have to go on? Isn't the assistant ultimately carrying out the will of the manager albeit the manager may listen to his ideas and take them on board occasionally.
I've saw no end of occasions when an assistant manager has taken control of the first team following the managers departure and totally changed the style of play which suggests he wasn't totally on board with his predecessors ideas.
Like I say, not having a go or disagreeing with your assessment but genuinely curious as to how who formed that opinion.
Flash forwards to this exact date 2020.Moan, moan, moan, moan fuckin moan.
Get a grip this is 4th division football, with a 4th division manager.
Flash forwards to this exact date 2020.
'Get a grip, this is non league football, with a non league manager.'
And then again to 2025.
'Get a grip, this is without a league football and we haven't even got a manager.'
Don't start talking about 2 year projects. I'm getting a very worrying dose of déjà vu.Small steps of progress this season is the way to go. Rather than backward which is what it’s been for 18 years.
Robins is laying the building blocks for having a crack at play offs this season. And improving the squad and know how next season.
I think it’s a 2 year project to get out this league. And in saying that we are in with a shout this season even with the injuries we have had.
Is that what they call it nowadaysDon't start talking about 2 year projects. I'm getting a very worrying dose of déjà vu.
Well they probably will tomorrow.Is that what they call it nowadays

Every successful sporting organisation develop a system and infrastructure framework which allows the technical staff to perform effectively. At Our club most Managers have never been time forBut then in turn, if the problem isn't the manager then what difference does it make giving the manager a few years to build something?
Surely the immoveable object that is preventing progression is still there in place.

Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere but according to Wikipedia, MR's second tenure up to 13th Feb has seen him put together a win ration of 48.1% from 52 games. Hardly a sackable offence. If we expect better from ANY manager then we're in for a disappointment.
Three very tough fixtures ahead. We need to come through them unscathed.It will be interesting to see in a few weeks where we are and the comments

Why impossible? Very tough for sure, but surely not impossible.Impossible , Cov will be lucky to get three points
