Because I’ve been around a while i remember a Huddersfield fan coming on here when we hired Robins for a second time saying that Robins needed a good number 2 to be at his best and that he wasn’t convinced that Taylor was that man. Someone with better search skills than me could probably find...

I think we are ignoring the fact by championship standards we have spent a tonne of money on incoming players of our own. Most teams don’t have that luxury and have to use loans to supplement their starting eleven.

One thing is consistent …. DK felt the new coaches were not yet experienced enough to guide us to promotion, players were telling their friends etc that the coaching standards had dropped, too many voices etc. DK gave Mark 3 choices bring in a proven assistant Make of the existing your...

Pure speculation on my part but it maybe that Mark was tired of the challenge of managing a strong and vocal assistant and / or nervous of appointing someone who may even become his successor and therefore felt that a young group of hungry but less challenging coaches was the answer that worked...

I think Rob G was poor last night. He obviously practiced and executed a really good and emotional first question and Doug’s response totally flawed him. It didn’t suit the narrative he had told himself. He then largely came across as a confused fan not a BBC reporter. Rob saying he didn’t...

Not as high a risk as leaving fans to believe all of the made up stories as to why the owner isolated Robins, forced Adi out, imposed the wrong back room staff, to stubborn to allow MR to bring in an assistant, banned experienced players and loans etc etc etc I listened. I was pleased with the...

You keep avoiding the point that doesn’t suit your narrative …. why is it not acceptable for King to blame Robins for Robins own actions but it is ok for Robins to allow Adi and King to be damaged for decisions Robns took ?

Im not suggesting that Robns was poor, Adi was great or King is faultless. im suggesting the story is much more complex than the Robins blind faith supporters will allow themselves to believe. Mark was happy for Adi and Kings reputations to be damaged to protect his own. It’s not a good look...

He’s stayed silent on the reasons for Adi leaving and the sub standard coaching set up for months whilst fans on here, podcasts, phone ins claimed it was a secret DK plot to undermine and isolate Mark. He’s got battered for 4 days on the back of misinformation being spread …. Who can blame him...

King can’t win with fans like you. prior to the forum fans were expecting him to be political, avoid questions, reveal a new manager to distract etc etc on the day he’s the exact opposite now the criticism DK’s too open …. Jesus wept.

Agreed. I don’t think DK says too much he doesn’t plan to normally my only caveat would be he did seem more emotional than normal. It’s possible it was not calculated.

Admit it your sources were wrong. You therefore unintentionally misled fans.

Rob Gurney, bless him, but by Christ he’s coming across as muddled fan not a professional presenter.

Conspiracy theories: 1) King deliberately got rid of Adi to isolate MR 2) MR didn’t want the new coaching set up 3) MR didn’t sign off on incoming players 4) Loans are banned 5) Older players with no resale value are banned 6) the new manager is al;ready agreed and DK was working behind MR’s...

DK has handed the conspiracy theorists their arse on a plate.

Your missing my point I’m saying a section of our fan base are over reacting to the decision. The same fans who were criticising Robins week in week out now can find no reason to explain why he would be sacked.

We’ve been Mark Robins Coventry City for a number of years. It didn’t bother us then why should it bother us now.

It is possible to think that Mark was fabulous for the club over many years and be open minded about whether he had reached his ceiling or not as a manager. Read this forum over the last 12 months, listen to the CWR phone in or podcasts and they are full of critique on what Robins was getting...

The is moronic Mark would be the first to say the club is bigger than any individual.
