As much as I love and appreciate what Mark Robins has done for the club, I reckon he's found his level at the club. Would be interesting to see what he would do with better financial backing, but it might be a more cost-effective option to appoint a manager like Chris Wilder who has proven that he can do 'more with less'.

Personally I would prefer Pep, but Wilder would be a close second.

I would have to agree with the G. Not a chance. Besides, we’ve got Robins, that’ll do.

Yeah, the only reason Robins achieved a cup win and 2 promotions was the amazing squad and hefty budget he inherited

No thanks, engineered his way out of his home town club because he couldn't cope. Demanded 4 million to resign and was refused so purposefully tried to get himself sacked to get a big pay off.

Took over in September with Barnsley bottom of the league.. Lead them to an 18th place finish. Seems like he did pretty well.

Could he achieve more than 2 Wembley victories and 2 promotions in 3 seasons on fuck all money while playing home games away in Birmingham for owners who are embroiled in legal battles?

We have been punching well above our weight with Robins. Some of these fans are clueless.

Didn’t robins say he felt with better away form we were a mid table team ? He doesn’t seem to think we’re punching then

First thought is Robins won’t be sacked.
Second thought is Wilder wouldn’t come here.

We have. When he took over we were on the verge of being relegated to league two.

And not only have we won a playoff final and league one title, but we have won the Checkatrade. That is an incredible record. I know I am stating the obvious, but these are simply the facts and you seem ignorant to these. How I have no idea. If Pep had come in he probably wouldn't have got us up the leagues any quicker on our budget!

Not interested in what one individual fan from Barnsley felt. His record at Barnsley speaks for itself. Fans at this club know much more about Robins as he has been here far longer. The fact is he took over at possibly the lowest point in our history and has achieved two promotions and a Wembley win. For the last two seasons we haven’t had a home game and yet he achieved promotion playing a sublime brand of attacking possession football and this season has us in with a chance of staying up despite having the second lowest budget. He has proved that he knows what he is doing. We have a plan. Now that may not save us this season ( although I think we will stay up). Even if we do go down he he deserves the chance to bring us back up again.
