I've got to say on Monday, from start to finish, everyone played their part in the day and I'm never going to forget that day out at Wembley. The atmosphere from the train, to the Green Man, to the green park, to the ground, was just sensational. I had numerous texts from people at work, ex-colleagues etc wishing me good luck and congratulations and I was well and truly proud to be a City fan on Monday.
I wanted however to thank the man who I will happily say is the best manager I have seen at CCFC in my lifetime, Mark Robins. Since he's come back to the club, he's beaten our Top 6, Play Off, Promotion and Big Crowd Hoodo, whilst managing to get the most amount of points in our history. He's also managed to achieve this whilst losing his assistant manager to illness and two of his key players, that can change games at this level.
Also, this season, Robins has come out and put his balls on the line and said McNulty could get 20 a season and we were the best footballing team in the league and he's been proved brave and right every-time - despite the backlash he's had from a large number of our fans, calling for a taxi threads etc. The man deserves credit where credits due.
Most importantly though, Robins has got us moving back in the right direction, which no other manager has managed to do since we were relegated in 2001 and he has managed to re-build the connection with the players and the fans. I was desperate for us to win on Monday and considering all the pressure we were under, our second half performance was breathtaking and the lads deserved it. There seems to be something about Robins and CCFC and he's the perfect fit. I went back to Cov rather than Leamington after the game and I really hope that anyone that saw Robins bought him a beer!
Final note, thanks for this season also to everyone on here, I've enjoyed the banter throughout the season and the squabbling about tickets, smoke bombs or who was shitter Slade or Venus! See you all in August. PUSB
