OFFICIAL: Mark Robins has been sacked (13 Viewers)

[jto123]

I still firmly believe with the midfield options that no-one could have done better. I’m hoping this is calculated and someone good has been lined up.

I know it’s not a popular take but I think we will improve as a team provided that the manager that comes in is decent and not someone like Lampard etc.

Well obviously we will improve if a better manager comes in, that’s not really a groundbreaking statement

 

[jordan210]

I think we should not get a head manger. Just hire 7 more coaches and they can take turns day by day at being manger

 

[Briles]

Some of our fans wouldn't give a legend like Robins time to turn it around, what they gonna do to a new manager? Shit decision

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

You might be able to take the posters of me off your wall now too. Your obsession is a bit strange

My obsession, what about your obsession crying and bitching about how bad robins is after all he’s done for us?

Never a bad word to say about king and how he's fucked everything up though you melt

 

[Earlsdon-Loyal-Blue]

As a 32 year old, the greatest manager of my lifetime. Taken us from heading to the Conference to the Premier League. Utterly heartbroken.

 

[Frankly_Mr_Shankly]

The timing is a bit strange, almost feels like the relationship between DK and MR completely fractured beyond repair after last night.

Perhaps he should've been given more time, but unfortunately I'm not sure this team's fortunes could be salvaged by MR. He's probably taken us as far as we can. The performances were awful and the results are looking far too difficult to come by.

Will always be grateful for everything he's done for the club.

Agreed, he hit a big brick wall, and there was no consistency

 

[mmttww]

The season

and why? Feel like that's important.

 

[pusbccfc]

He should have had until Christmas but ultimately Doug doesn't want to wait until we are sat in the bottom 3.

Forget the two wins this week against 10 men. The team and club has been heading into a relegation battle. We've been very poor, FA Cup aside since Feb/March time.

It's truly heartbreaking because this man saved our club. He owes us nothing. We need to give him a send off.

I said on this forum 4 weeks ago, the decision to sack Robins will divide this fan base and club more than any other decision besides the move to Northampton. Unless we pick up a win Saturday, it will be extremely toxic.

 

[KenilworthSkyBlue]

Til January. And because he has been brilliant for us and has turned it round before

Would've been a terrible and short sighted decision to leave it until then if performances and results had stayed the same. Making the decision now at least gives a club a chance to bring in players that will suit the new 'Head Coach's' style of play and system once he's appointed.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

and why? Feel like that's important.

He’s always produced the goods over the course of a season

 

[skyblueiom]

Lets not forget that the coaching staff seem to still be in place - lets hope the new manager brings in his own team - I cant see what these have added to the club other than this fucking disaster

I've said plenty about King, that's the funny thing.

"melt". Get back to football factory.

 

[fatso]

According to Sky Sports news DK will attend a supporters forum next week regarding this.

Lynch the c**t!

 

[Chris1987]

He should at least have had the Sunderland game as a last hurrah. That game is now a write off.

And what if we had got walloped in that with MR in charge ?
Makes no difference

 

[Sky Blue Heaven]

Absolutely gutted, no words really. Thank you Mark Robins for the memories, a true legend and the best manager in the history of this football club. Let’s sing “There’s only one Mark Robins” load and proud on Saturday. PUSB

 

[Pete in Portugal]

King is a fcking idiot. Disgraceful.

 

[fatso]

We are gonna end up with Fat Frank Fucking Lampard ain't we

Please God no!

 

[TomRad85]

Lynch the c**t!

Blimey

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

And what if we had got walloped in that with MR in charge ?

We have gone from chances of a result to none. We may well have lost anyway but this guarantees it.

You’ve said fuck all about king, then whenever anybody tries to call you out you just ban them anyway because your a twat

 

[jto123]

He was openly critical of the players last night. I do wonder if he had lost the dressing room. In which case that would be on the players imo.

 

[ccfcricoh]

he's already confirmed there isnt anyone lined up

Yeah. Gutted here too.

I find it a madness.

 

[SBT]

I’m sad, but it was time - the club clearly has ambitions beyond those that Robins himself can deliver, and if he wasn’t willing/able to get on board with a modernised/post-L2 coaching system, then he would have to be smashing it on the pitch to stay in the job. He isn’t.

He deserves a better farewell than this (the statement is a shoddy and typo-strewn mess) but that’s the business - it’s on King’s head now.

 

[BlueSkiesForever]

Well obviously we will improve if a better manager comes in, that’s not really a groundbreaking statement

Yeah fair enough but I mean I don’t think losing Robins is the worst thing ever, I think something hasn’t been right for a while and losing at home to Derby just topped it off. I really like Robins but since March time we’ve been lacking in nearly every department. I just think we will be a better team provided the manager is someone who can manage properly

 

[Domo]

Absolutely appalling. I'm so disappointed in my club.

 

[Otis]

he's already confirmed there isnt anyone lined up

So, who's in charge for Saturday? Boateng?

 

[Tomh111]

Stupid decision and stupid timing.

About to go into a horror run of games, there's an international break in 2 weeks - do it then if you must.

Last night was disappointing but was unlucky. We've just beaten Middlesbrough away and performed well against Luton.

I can't understand it at all.

I have heard that Dean Smith has been lined up to replace him, don’t know how true that is

 

[Osullivan18]

Genuinely a bit shocked as thought he deserved more time. There have been games, (Sheffield Wed and a few others I cannot think now) where I thought he has had his day, but I know it's just being emotional in the moment. The next appointment has a very difficult job in winning over many fans now and please don't let it be Frank Lampard (*unless he get's us promoted, then I always knew he was a great coach and deserved the chance). PUSB

 

[fatso]

Blimey

Bit excessive I know, but I'll roll with it while I get my head around this shit.

 

[letsallsingtogether]

Hope all the Robins outers are happy.
They are probably knocking one out in bogs.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

honestly feels like a family member has died. The stability Robins brought our club has now vanished.

We are Coventry City. We will never be a top 15 Premier League Club. Robins brought us the happiest times of my life watching Coventry.

2 Promotions. 1 FA Cup Semi Final and some outstanding football

We are all a victim of our own fickle expectations. Absolutely disgraceful decision.

I also hope our players are happy this morning. Their shambolic performances have brought this on.

I’m glad you said that first line because I felt the same, it just seemed dramatic to me to make the comparison.

To hear that we haven’t got someone lined up because ‘we’re taking our time’ making a decision is genuinely infuriating.

My ‘bet’ is that we’ll get an absolute blagger in as the person to take over Robins and it won’t last long.

 

[Nick]

Now you're just making things up.

Have a day off, weirdo.
