[Ccfc_Addy]

God damn, I'm not really sure how to react. I'm just stunned. This isn't a day I ever thought would happen

Welcome Frank.

How do I post the throwing up emoji

 

[clint van damme]

He's had this planned for a while the c**t

 

[edgy]

It will hurt for a while, but this is for the best. As the statement says and taking emotion out of it, the performances have simply not been good enough.

8 defeats in 11 at home. Dreadful.
Only a handful of wins since last spring.

 

[Evo1883]

People blaming the players? FFS.

The players have to take some blame

 

[BlueSkiesForever]

Can you read? We sacked him.

Yeah I know, absolutely no idea what happened there, for some reason I read that completely wrong

 

[David O'Day]

Bring back Joy

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Massive mistake , Thanks for some great memories

 

[CCFCSteve]

Very surprised by this and guessing there’s more to it (like with Viveash). The players effort and intensity in the first half was poor which was bizarre after two good wins

 

[Grendel]

I don't want someone running my football club to make decisions based on how football fans feel. That's how you get Andy Thorn as your manager.

That is true. The fact is Robins has had a poor end of season and we look like a relegation threatened team.

The statement seems a bit cold but I suppose there is little else that can be said.

I want someone running my club who has an idea on how a football club should be run.

The players have not performed. Everybody has a part to play in it. Players should be ashamed of this outcome.

Bring back Joy

You said he was nowhere near to being sacked didn't you?

 

[TomRad85]

It's been coming not sure why people are pretending it hasn't. Something has to give eventually.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

obsessed

Obsessed with what? Him making thread after thread saying how shit our greatest manager ever has been because of a tough spell?

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

“The Club will take its time to appoint a successor to Mark, although the position will be that of Head Coach working within the new structure set up by the Club over the last two years.”

this is as I predicted. robins was never Doug’s man

 

[harvey098]

Can’t see this ending well. The majority of fans didn’t want this. Going to be a hostile atmosphere unless the new manager gets off to a flier.

MR deserves a fucking statue

 

[lord_garrincha]

This statement has been gathering dust since half time at the Luton game.

 

[Sbarcher]

Surely Doug has someone already lined up. It can't be a knee jerk reaction to last night after 2 previous wins.

 

[SkyBluePower]

Oh no no no.

 

[ajsccfc]

Fuck this club.

It will hurt for a while, but this is for the best. As the statement says and taking emotion out of it, the performances have simply not been good enough.

Yessir.

Only alternative would've been some kind of 'shift upstairs' but I don't see MR being into that. Damn shame.

Great , and now the next appointment is critical and will show how much doug king wants to be a serious club , because if we appoint a gary Rowett then I'm afraid we will be going backwards

 

[Esoterica]

Douglas better get the next decision very very right, or his relationship with the fans will forever be toxic.

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

It was clear something wasn't working but I'm far from certain Robins was the issue. Even if he was, who is there better out there who would want the job.

Feels knee jerk given the slight upturn in form

I wonder if another has been sound out

I really hope you're right about an appointment lined up otherwise this feels like totally the wrong time.

You surely can't deny it

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Gutted

Absolutely

 

[Sky Blue Wozza]

Well, well, well.

Huge decision. Stating the obvious, but the next appointment is huge. Get it right and they can build on the impressive foundations that Robins has instilled. Get it wrong and we’re back to 15k crowds in League One.

Shocked that it’s happened today, but something was definitely amiss last night.

 

[Grendel]

Can’t see this ending well. The majority of fans didn’t want this. Going to be a hostile atmosphere unless the new manager gets off to a flier.

MR deserves a fucking statue

The majority will not care either way

 

[djr8369]

Fuck off. Ridiculous to make that decision after last night.

I’m not sure. Initially agree but then it’s been the same all season and end of last season

 

[Major Tom]

Poor motivation last night after a good result against Luton and a win at the weekend, where in honesty we didn't look good for most of the second half. Equal points bottom 3.. football is ruthless ..Very important now we get the right person regardless of budget.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Awful decision and completely shocked and distraught

 

[TomRad85]

Well I expect us to win every game playing stunning fluid football with this squad now as it was all down to him.

Last night you said you wanted him gone
