    Dean Austin position untenable

    My bad then, I didn’t have that impression.

    Dean Austin position untenable

    Fixating on the start of season to transfer window. It’s not like Robins got 5 months.

    Dean Austin position untenable

    He was complicit in that he got Dean Austin his post. Beyond that I don’t know, how easy is it to bring quite a few new players up to speed in a new team, with new culture, new play practices. If it was a business they’d get longer than 5 months, unless they were actively disruptive. And you...

    Dean Austin position untenable

    Could it be DK has over-extended club finances and can’t commit further funds to squad without sales or risk of financial fair-play penalties? Perhaps a combination of DK over-promising what squad investment would come MR’s way and timing. I seem to remember a CT article referencing Bassette and...

    Robins and King

    Perhaps the plan is to have a greater coaching pool to choose an Assistant Manager from(?)

    The 5 year plan

    Couldn’t they though? Did it have to be even a suitable player, just a player would could win the ball in midfield. Not asking for all of Sheaf’s ability, just enough to stop the centre of the field being owned by the opposition. Are there less than a handful of these players across the globe...

    The 5 year plan

    Struggle to understand how Dean Austin and the recruitment team could continue to close targets other than a no.6, all the way to the close of the transfer window. Especially when there is no cover for Sheaf (his skill set) in another squad player or in the aggregate of our squad. With Sheaf...

    New Assistant Manager

    How much is the PR monthly retainer for the club? Just curious.

    unrest behind the scenes

    Lot’s of fair posts and comments. So many posts, in such a short period of times, addressing fans concerns - feels like a PR exercise to me.

    Viveash gone

    Was the writing on the wall for Adì and Lawrence earlier in the season then?

    Another rumour

    Just saw this reels repost from Josh Eccles’ instagram account. Not sure if it’s from this season or last season pre-pre-season training. But wouldn’t it be something if this was our new LCB.

    Match Thread vs Cardiff (A) 19/09/23

    Nice to see we put it altogether in the International break.

    The Replacement

    Bilal Hussein @ AIK maybe, seems to read the game like Hamer and clinical passing.

    What do we still need?

    Club site quotes the gaffer ““The recruitment has been good so far and we still want another ten. Things will start to drop so people should be excited.”

    What do we still need?

    IMO 3 more CBs (AFTER Madame Latty-Bovary), 2 more strikers (3 if we sell Godden), 2 more right backs (don’t see Tatsu playing that deep), 1 more left back (assuming Bidwell will swap between LB and CB). And one player to challenge or replace Gus… a really tall order. Can’t see Robins getting...

    Transfer targets

    Can any ITKs tell us why Robins isn’t bringing onboard players with the revenue freed from the salary commitments to the outgoing players AND the money available from season ticket sales? Or has Citizen Doug said Robins can’t have coin till Vik is sold?
