When the going was good king was on Talksport, cwr and alike
when the going is bad he’s nowhere to be seen.
speaks volumes of his persona
Politicians have a public duty to respond to the publi, and a vested interest in that at some point they will require votes from that public.
Private business owners, even of football clubs, have the right to remain silent. It may not help their cause but that’s a gamble they have to take.
Not really. She came in - they stated winning,Dennis Lawrence goes we start losing.proves the point exactly
she came in in January. Started to implement changes and since those changes it’s gone downhill
To repeat myselfWhat do you think her role is? And to be honest the performance has fell off a cliff since Dennis Lawrence left…
Incidentally - there was another poster on here that states we were class between Jan 2024 and April 2024… she was appointed in Jan 2024.
Ok you really didn't understand that did you.“The performance director is the person inside a club or a federation in charge of overseeing the different performance departments of the club such as sports science, medical, nutrition, S&C or analytics, in order to ensure the players’ optimal fitness and performance on the game day, following the coaching philosophy and requirement of the Head Coach.”
As I said, performance has fallen off a cliff and she should go. Taking her iPads with her.

People just want someone else to blame. Tactically Robins got things wrong. It’s not the PD who was saying “fuck it play Rudoni at left back” or “Sakamoto is definitely a no10”He can't read
Perhaps you could help me? What precisely is meant by ensuring optimal performance on the game day?Ok you really didn't understand that did you.
The PD gives the players the best chance from a sports science view. The football operations department i.e the manager/head coach then sets them up to play the game. She is not responsible for on field performance
So you should fuck off and learn what something is before talking
Fuck offHe can't read
She’s the one looking at what they’re eating to make sure on game time they’re not lethargic.Perhaps you could help me? What precisely is meant by ensuring optimal performance on the game day?
Do you think the players have appeared to be performing optimally on a game day?
If you can’t help then fuck off yourself.
What you have said suggests sacking Robins was exactly the right thing to do.People just want someone else to blame. Tactically Robins got things wrong. It’s not the PD who was saying “fuck it play Rudoni at left back” or “Sakamoto is definitely a no10”
ultimately the players should get the brunt - but you don’t fuck off 25 people.

the performance director looks at the overall fitness and psychology of the team.
when they talk about Performance they don’t mean how Haji Wright is playing, they talk about performance as to how the body is going. Are the players at their optimal levels
It’s weird, there seems to be a consensus that’s the timeline for form dropping yet every chooses causation which doesn’t fit the timeline, main one AV and the PD.What do you think her role is? And to be honest the performance has fell off a cliff since Dennis Lawrence left…
Well, they have hardly looked super awake and “on it” in most games this season, have they?She’s the one looking at what they’re eating to make sure on game time they’re not lethargic.
she’s the one who’s looking at played vitals to make sure we can reduce injuries and that the players go into to the game 100% fit.
she doesn’t determine whether Rudoni thinks fuck it - I’ll back pass to The goalkeeper
That will only be determined at the end of the season won’t it.What you have said suggests sacking Robins was exactly the right thing to do.
Would be great if there was a thread tracking response for those not on every platform.Players social media blackout lifted after training this morning apparently
It's mad, I think he should of been given to at least Xmas to turn it around but to think the PD is responsible for tactics, team selection and on field performance is mad.People just want someone else to blame.

I just hope that isn’t the performance chef’s staple diet,All that pad Thai slowing them dow ?
In what game did they look close to injury or lacked fitness?Well, they have hardly looked super awake and “on it” in most games this season, have they?
I was under the impression that was Dean Austin’s jobIt's mad, I think he should of been given to at least Xmas to turn it around but to think the PD is responsible for tactics, team selection and on field performance is mad.
It maybe confused as we don't have a SD/DOF as the football operations team i.e. the head coach etc would fall under them and not the PD which would make it clearer what the PDs remit is
He's head of recruitment?In what game did they look close to injury or lacked fitness?
I was under the impression that was Dean Austin’s job
Dennis Lawrence left because he got a better job offer?When someone comes in, it takes months for that person to implement changes.
We didn’t offer Lawerence a new contract, that’s why he left. whose decision was that? Certainly not robins
she’s been in the job for 11 months and in those 11 months this side has gone backwards.
coincidence?

I thought they upgraded Jamie Johnson to that and Austin took on a wider role.He's head of recruitment?
It's not morally right though is it? It's a subjective view. A player commenting on it dismissal of his boss would have to accept some culpability and that is unlikely to happen.It's completely normal practice for players to be told not to post anything on social media during a time like this or risk a fine.
What I would have liked to see however is a player have the bollocks to stand up and say fuck it, I will take the fine to do what's morally right. But, that's where we are in this day and age.
The effectively head of sport science is not going to be undermining the managers position.PD not responsible for tactics and team selection but has responsibility to ensure optimal performance on the game day.
We don’t know what impact that role has had on day to day training or if there has been an undermining of the manager’s position.
Dennis Lawrence left because he got a better job offer?
We’d actually been going backwards since we lost the play off final… we’ve probably had a 3 month spell between them and now where we’ve played well.
To be fair I reckon it would - whilst it’s a common position in football it’s new to Coventry City. There’s a severe lack of understanding of the roleI wonder if some of the absolute drivel posted on this thread would be the same if we had a male performance director?
She worked in the back office for the league, she's got no experience working for an actual football team.No experience in football?
She played for Villa and worked for the PL for 7 fucking years.
Wolves away.. would that be Lawrence’s last game?no he didn’t. He left because he wasn’t offered a new contract
as for the form. it’s not been consistent granted but it certainly gone downhill since wolves away. poor form and since all the changes came into play
like I said coincidence?
The effectively head of sport science is not going to be undermining the managers position.
she may have A say in what players would be fully fit to play though. She’d have been behind the data that showed Callum O’Hare needing a rest after the United game
Yet every successful side uses it ?and after that game, ohare was the never the same player
data driven decision making is bullshit in a football world. it’s all bullshit. Data can be read and manipulated in many ways
Wolves away.. would that be Lawrence’s last game?
Lawrence was offered a job in the US and took it, his choice?Not really. She came in - they stated winning,Dennis Lawrence goes we start losing.
