Does it? I’d be shocked if he joins anywhere higher than a mid table championship club. Hull were in/near the playoffs not too long ago

I don't necessarily mean the current position in the table, I mean stature of club. I would think he could do better than Hull. Just my opinion, of course.

I think hull are a good club , a very good club these days .. the problem is their owner might not give robins time to make his mark
Well, that's what I mean really. Robins has had experience of poor owners, so why would he jump back into the fire again?

He has only succeeded under adversity - thats why - when given tools to achieve and with expectation he fails

Because that's when he had success?

If he went in at a team throwing money about, well you can see what happens.

A penalty kick away from the PL and a poor VAR decision away from an FA Cup final?

Last season wasn't a failure ? Why are fans completely making things up

Without a win against Wolves and an unexpected comeback against Man U it was a failure as it was going backwards in the league

I'd worry more about the delusion that he's going to stroll in at a Top Championship club.

He's more than capable of working at the top end of the division as he's done it for the last 2 years ?

Which is what I said earlier. It's weird. People saying that WE'RE still going on about Robins. The hypocrisy on here is pretty breathtaking.

Oh OK. So without the stuff that WASN'T a failure, it WAS a failure. Gotcha. "Unexpected comeback". LOL.

Lets see who offers him a job shall we?

More internet points at stake, are there? I don't care who offers him a job or if he never gets another job. Lampard is our manager now. I'm just trying to reiterate that I don't think he was a failure at Coventry City. I think if we had a survey of fans then you'd be in the minority. Still, bookmark away.

grendel is just pumping out the lies now, and I don’t know why- he got what he wanted, Robins is gone

I think you missed my question. Do you actually attend games?

9th and a cup semi final is a successful season
The goal for the season was to challenge for the playoffs and we finished nine points short - it was obviously a failure

The cup run was great fun, but it was a literal sideshow and highly unlikely to be repeated given how favourable the draw was

After hull the team had nothing to play for , finishing 9 points off is meaningless may aswell have been 20 .. king wanted a cup run and he got one at the expense of the league .. finishing 9th was one of our best finishes in 25 years

It was a good season

Will always be weird to me that some didn't like the bloke but whatever 🤷

Maybe they just loved the struggle more

it would be ok if they said “he did well but I never took to the bloke”, it’s the making things up and lies I don’t get.

If he was only offered a job by Fleetwood Town that would not change one single thing about what he achieved with us.

The discussion was about if he would or should go to a club better than Hull.

Yet again you jump in on about unrelated nonsense.

Why would it shock you ? He's Achieved more in the last 7 years than almost every manager in the EFL
I think if you’re a club with realistic promotion chances there are probably managers with better CVs at that level you’d go to before Robins.

We had nothing to play for because we’d had a crap start to the season.

King may have wanted a cup run (who doesn’t?) but no-one was under any illusions that the league performance would decide whether Robins stayed in the job. Hence why we had a nice cup run and then sacked Robins a few months later regardless.

You are definitely right in what you say, it’s startling how so many of our fans just haven’t got a clue what they’re on about

I'm not too sure you realise what you are trying to jump in on, are you? Who is saying Hull are a bad club?

Just weird trying to post over and over without really saying anything.

We finished 6 points worse off than the season before , in terms of league performance we practically stalled .. but the cup run was incredible .. it wasn't a bad season at all up until hull we were probably on a better trajectory than the playoff season
