and getting relegated would've been one, too. Imagine our PPG rate since Man Utd is nailed-on relegation form.

Appointing someone like Bloomfield could be a master stroke. Hard part is we'll have to wait a while to find out.

We weren't going down , we had the opportunity to balance the squad in January and address the fact we had no leaders or experience in the team.

The squad will still be getting players in the door from the same people

Bloomfield who has taken 100 games to get Wycombe playing decent stuff and did shit at Colchester? Great

Staggered by this. He’s made some odd decisions but this one makes no sense at all unless there’s something big behind the scenes or there’s another manager becoming available. Unless Corberan, Edwards, Carrick or Rhol are on their way there’s no one in our league that would have a chance of doing a better job. Wouldn’t be against Lampard but it’s a risk to go there. Completely gobsmacked.

I think this is a mistake.

I know we have been underperforming but I am far from convinced that we can lay all of this at the door of the best manager we have had in a very long time.

We will end up appointing either a young untried manager (who might have performed alright at a lower level) or a more experienced one who has been sacked because his previous club were performing badly.

I appreciate that a new manager might improve things, at least in the short term, but I would rather stick for a while longer with a proven winner.

There will be a long queue of clubs for MR’s services.

Bit of perspective:

- An FA Cup run masked what was a woeful end of last season
- Beating 2 teams with 10 men masked what was really not a major shift in output.

We have just not been good enough in 2024, and although my heart aches at MR leaving, truth is we need change.

Only so much grace you can give to the guy for how far we’ve come. What’s the cut off? How long must we have shit starts to the season and not achieve what we rightly should with this squad before it’s decided it’s time.

King knows the gravity of his call. But he also knows what’s needed to be done to protect his investment and to create the outcome we all want which is promotion.

whether he gets the appointment right remains to be seen. Just look at Sunderland - lost their best player and made very few real stand out signings in summer, but a change of manager has transformed them.

That’s the benchmark for us - and King will know that’s all we will accept for firing MR.

A club legend leaves today, I had the Derby and Luton games pencilled in as must win for Robins to keep his job expecting a loss to Middlesbrough. Looks like winning the boro match wasn't enough to save him.

Bit lost where we go now, King has got rid of the best coaching duo we've had for 20 years in Viveash and Robins and has assembled what looks like a poor squad for over inflated transfer fees. Gonna be a huge appointment to replace him, if he gets it wrong feels like King has effectively destroyed everything we've built in the last 8 years.

I don’t think that time was now, and certainly not to be done in a pretty callous fashion for a man who is deservedly a club legend.

He gave us our club back.

Realistically how would you do it differently?

He’s been sacked, you can hardly announce it before a game.

There’s a right and wrong way of doing it though. You at least allow MR to go on his own terms on Saturday, allow the fans to give him a send off. He’s been robbed of that mostly because Jack Rudoni lost his mind in the first half.

That isn’t right.
