Mark Robins 32% win ratio at Scunthorpe and 33% at Huddersfield was a real indicator on how he was gonna do with us wasn’t it

2bh if he does well enough to jump ship to a prem team, I’m certain we’ll be happy with our season

Yeah - bizarre weekend that was, Slade was sacked Sunday afternoon and I’m sure we announced Robins later on that night

Difference is I think Lampard’s rep can carry us over medium term. Hes gonna butt heads with world class players, lesser players will respect him

Interestingly - Lampard fell out with the recruitment director at Chelsea - Marina Granovskaia but looking into him - he’s used to working within a similar structure we operate and is a big supporter of the data driven ways he’s brought through a fair few youngsters aswell

Did well at Derby, managed Chelsea to a top 4 position whilst under a transfer embargo bringing through Mount, James and Gallagher. And kept Everton up in 2022. would instantly command respect from our players given his reputation and status within the game. Hes been linked with high profile...

Sky are wanking themselves off over Frank Lampard’s Coventry v Wayne Rooney’s Plymouth already

Lampard right now:

Turns out they do exist

He got to the play off final in his one season in the championship. He’d also command the respect instantly of the dressing room

My mates a Reading fan - and can’t believe why he’s still there. Reckon he’s running miracles

He’d probably still get into our central midfield to be honest

2bf - you can be pissed off with the clubs decisions, but you’d still be a fan. Shmmeee can call King a c**t but I’d imagine he’ll still cheer Lampard on if he gets the job. At least he hasn’t said he wants us to lose like some have. That’s bizarre behaviour

He was caretaker manager after Duff, one of their commenters stated he saved their season As you’ve said - would they command the respect though

Lampard isn’t my first choice but 2bh he did a good job at Derby and he managed Chelsea through their transfer embargo. Brought through Mount and Reece James - I think Conor Gallagher come through him. Everton are a basket case and he kept them up there. reputation wise - he’d command the...

Was reading Swanseas forum and they’re really complementary about Alan Sheehan

I’d agree with this - one thing I believe Robins is great at and I’ve pointed this out before - he’s a siege manager. he’ll take average players and drag another 10% out of them. Godden was a journey man striker, McFadzean, Kelly, etc. seems to struggle with more mercurial players - See JCH and...

This is where I’m at, if this is the structure king wants - it’s one I support. But it’s one Robins didn’t fit into.

Yes. But Robins rates Delaney. Someone told me that was behind his promotion (not necessarily to replace AV - but definitely to first team) Robins wasn’t a king man. I have my suspicions that Robins would have gone at the end of last season if we hadn’t made the semi finals of the cup. New...

1) - The Checkatrade Trophy - feel like this was understated as to how important this was. This lifted us off the ground 2) - Middlesbrough away - convinced me we were returning to the Prem (not to be - but I really believed) 3) - beating Sunderland 1-0 to go top of league one. That had me...
