Why should King just sit back and take a battering from Cov fans, if this is true?

Mmm... Loan players were used effectively before, under his ward, and led to some significant successes, so this now is beginning to drift away from some kind of logic... Doug, make it make sense...

Robins wanted Wilson Esbrand before Austin came in. He only started 7 games, his agent was dictating what he does.

If we bring players in from high calibre clubs and don't give them game time we don't help with their parent club.

We tried to get an option to buy McNally but they wouldn't do it.

Interesting to hear Robins was desperate to get a deal done for Wilson Esbrand, who let’s face it wasn’t that great. And they thought Doyle would start slow and he didn’t.

Also mentioned trying to get McNally on a permanent but Burnley wouldn’t go for it.

I'm sure the next head coach will be delighted that the owner is happy to throw him under the bus if fans aren't happy with a decision he's made

Good for them. As for people saying it's divisive, why would let people carry on saying you got rid of Adi, you forced new coaches on Robins, if it wasn't true?
He's standing his ground.

Not sure about that, we all know what robins did for the club, that won’t change, he’s just given the reason why he sacked him

No chance.

Some of the players made it clear to Robins and Doug it was him or them. That includes our captain, who is still here.

This is a completely unnecessary exercise and is going to make things far worse. Pretty sure this isn’t to be informative to fans, it’s to service Doug’s ego and pass as much blame off himself as possible. Sacked because he couldn’t get a suitable number 2? Pull the otherfuckingone.
