Totally agree with you however I don't believe we have such a structure as you describe, certainly not in the past anyway.

The structure is there. Certain personalities are targeted as are signings through the recruitment team.

the structure has been in place since Widdrington

I've referred to their touches and average positions.

They are facts. Look them up for yourself if you want.


Stop obsessing about my whereabouts you weirdo.

"Yes we won the league but Leicester sacked Ranieri so we simply must sack Robins. Also we played two defensive midfielders in a game in October. Not good enough"

Those of you who are so obssessed with sacking managers even after spells of success and currently doing well go and fuck off and support Chelsea if that's what you're into

Well I supported ccfc through the 80 and 90 era and oddly sacking managers meant I could watch us at Anfield old Trafford etc every season

Grendel mate we have to put this into context
To show just how much you dislike Mark Robins you've made 3 or 4 threads on his removal since he's been here .

In that time

6th - playoff winner
8th
1st Champions
20th current

You're not one to give chances obviously

I don’t dislike him. The one time I believe he exceeded was last season and I have a specific view on the timeline of football managers

I was very complimentary first time around

Yeah and sacking managers every year since then meant we got to watch us at Forest Green and Barnet, what's your point?

That’s because they didn’t live up to their season’s objectives. We are where we are expected to be. You’re just being a stubborn old fart trying to be all edgy and controversial for attention , it’s pathetic

The funny thing is most on here want a new owner to pump money in and the first thing they’d do is sack Robins

Robins worships at the Sisu temple

Out of interest why do you think a new owner would automatically sack Robins?

He's worshipped by many fans too , because he's given them what we desperately needed ..Good Times

As somebody who follows them everywhere I've never enjoyed following city as much as the last almost 3 years prior to lockdown

The fans love him

We’ve hovered above the drop zone most of the season. I think we will scrape through but Robins isn’t capable at this level to do any better - he’s an old fashioned type of manager really - a good fit for a club who needs a boost in the lower leagues but basically dim when against superior managers who outthink him every time

Most new owners look to bring their own man in. There’s a high chance they would.

a lot of owners come in with contacts Within football who then get their managers mates a job

New owners always want better and he’s not going to be better than what he is. He’d be gone as was Dowie in a heartbeat and his fierce loyalty to sepalla means he’d be gone anyway
