    Frank Lampard Rumours

    We certainly don’t all agree. Rhys Carr should be shown the exit door at the first available opportunity, and take Boateng with him. They are part of the problem, a great example is last night; playing Sakamoto totally out of position for 60+ minutes and standing watching Dasilva get totally...

    Steve Cooper?

    Surely we won’t do another Andy Thorn - that’s worse than Lampard.

    Doug King programme notes

    I hope you are right - personally though, I think Lampard will be too expensive, have too many demands and lose interest quickly. I am actually not disappointed about Robins going, just desperately disappointed that King is focusing on a “friend of a friend” instead of looking for some talent.

    Doug King programme notes

    In my view it is when you act like one in situations you know nothing about.

    Doug King programme notes

    By fiasco, I purely mean appointing Lampard, rather than the time taken.

    Doug King programme notes

    Sadly, in Doug King we have the worst of all worlds, a ruthless businessman (you have to be to get to his position) with no football knowledge who is 100% in charge and is therefore reliant on “advice” from Underling Advisors too afraid to challenge. A great example is the Lampard fiasco: DK...

    Frank Lampard Rumours

    Odds back on SkyBet now. Lampard 1/10 so looks highly likely, but clinging to the tiny hope it may not be him.

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Yep, King owns 100% and I agree, it is more transparent than SISU days.

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Sounds a bit like a SISU-type arrangement. Thats exactly what they did until they realised they weren’t able to acquire the freehold.

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Very different to continually fund an operating loss than put in initial funding in the first year. I do not believe Doug King is a rich man (in football funding terms anyway), so think it will be a challenge to continually fund operating losses - I hope I am wrong and you are right, but I...

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Well, we shall see. I suspect that hole will be plugged by player trading cash surpluses, rather than from Mr King’s pockets.

    Right who's the next manager then?

    Doug King has no cash to splash except that generated from the Club.

    Will we have a new “head coach” in the dugout for the Sheff Utd game?

    My money is on Carsley once the England games are out of the way.

    Eccles suspended

    It’s a bit strange as neither Sky Sports or FootMob Apps show any Cov players as being booked.

    Match Thread Preston vs. Coventry City - Match Thread - Sat 19th Oct

    I think Robins’ time is probably up sadly, but the reality is that we have sold our best players and not replaced the quality. Unfortunately, Doug King is following exactly the same policy as SISU back in the late 2000’s ahead of our Championship relegation in 2012. Without additional...

    They'll be dancing on the streets of Raith

    Let’s hope someone is in the grounds of Balwearie High School is employed on match days to retrieve the ball if he is assigned penalty taker.

    What’s with the trend of ….

    Unfortunately, Covid accelerated poor behaviour by entitled people you think it was a free pass that allowed them to do anything. At football, it was best illustrated at Euro 2020 final, and not much better in Berlin this July. I was at both those games and was ashamed to be an England fan - I...
