    Right who's the next manager then?

    Do we know if he’s taking a salary or dividends from the club ?? If not then he’s equivalently putting in £1m-£2m every year anyway.

    Match Thread Supporter's Meeting with Doug King Match Thread

    I don’t Clint but i also don’t find him confusing either. If i compare the club now to how it was under SISU i think King has done a good job.

    Right who's the next manager then?

    The head coach title is a red herring. It just means that recruitment doesn’t report into them ….. This is common place now ….. Almost all new new appointments are given the title head coach. For some reason some on here and in the Cov Tele have interpreted that incorrectly

    Because he was specifically asked a question on it by Turner and as we all know some fans believe its the lack of midfield strength that cost Robins his job. Not everything in a conspiracy.

    Ruud Van Nistelrooy applies for Coventry Job

    I think the idea of not choosing someone because if they are successful other clubs will tempt them away is folly. This happens at every level of football. If we choose someone who gets us promoted, we then stay in the Premier League, and he then leaves i’m 100% ok with that.

    It was implied through out that Mark was opposed to have a number 2 an experienced assistant,and instead wanted a flat back room set up. DK challenged it in the summer and at their meeting on Sept 30. Robins never put forward an assistant to King. King confirmed it wasn’t about package either...

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Maybe he paused because he was thinking yes I’ll give the new guy more than I was prepared to give Mark because I had reservations about whether he was the right man for us.

    Maybe it was not authorised by Robins, but it was by the club. AV might have thought that OK, Robins might have thought that AV should have asked his permission too. I rather suspect the article was the final straw in a strained relationship rather than the issue in itself. .

    Frank Lampard Rumours

    No it’s certainly possible but it’s not probable otherwise the majority of the teams in the bottom 6 at this stage of the season would end up in play offs and they clearly don‘t. We have a good squad that needs enhancing and we need a new head coach and back room team. Indivs will take a...

    Frank Lampard Rumours

    Not correct. the data tells us that we are averaging 1 point a match over the end of last season and this. He was not confident that our previous track record of turning around poor starts would continue without Adi and Dennis. He mahave picked up the sub standard training feedback from the...

    Frank Lampard Rumours

    There will be a period of adjustment I’m sure but you would hope the last 2 months would see us in top 6 form, however given we will be well behind the top 6 by then i think a top 8-10 finish is more realistic.

    Loans conundrum

    It really is. Often that fee is linked to appearances. The more they play the less the club pays on the basis the player is getting the development the club want. I’m not sure where you get your data from but mine is from a current championship CEO. I have no reason to believe he would mislead me.

    Loans conundrum

    I think that is wishful thinking Cam. The best loans ( young or old ) always come with a loan fee and a % of their salary. The greed of Premier league clubs means than 7 figure loan fees are not unusual. I personally think their is a place for loans but i prefer them with a view to buy...
