Why would Robins agree to a "mutual agreement" and a statement saying he's gone as far as he can?Not dissipated my anger that's for sure. If anything its worse!
Am I the only person that has worked for many people who behave exactly like King did last night. Pushing out people they disagree with and blaming everything that's perceived to be wrong on the person who has left while claiming everything they've done themselves is fantastic?
Really surprised me how many people are happy to just accept what King has come out with as 100% fact without any right of reply from Viveash or Robins, both of whom are most likely unable to give any response as part of their exit agreement.
Ultimately for me even if what he is said is the absolute truth he's managed the situation appallingly and that gives me concern for him running the club moving forward.
Its not difficult to arrange an exit for Robins which doesn't throw him under the bus and shit on everything he has achieved, it happens all the time. Could have waiting until after the Sunderland game and had a mutual agreement / gone as far as he can / personal reasons or any manner of other things along with a glowing statement from the club, highlights of what he's achieved, a leaving message from Robins wishing the club well in the future, give Robins his chance to say goodbye to the staff, players and fans etc etc. This was not the way to do it.
Laughable that King claimed he wouldn't speak to anyone before firing Robins out of respect, yet had been waiting to fire him for months, and was quite happy to spend an hour disrespecting him on the radio.
I'm sure Robins believed he was still the man for the job and could turn it around.
Same goes for leaving message etc, the man was sacked, I very much doubt he would've been up for doing all that after being (as he would see it) unfairly sacked by King.
People need to live in the real world. Unless Robins did, at some point, decide to step down, his departure was always going to be awkward because there's no easy way to sack a club legend.
Saying King had been waiting to fire him for months is pure speculation, and based on what we heard last night, probably completely incorrect.
