Klopp?

Absolutely. Knows that in a highly unstable profession, he has, at age 51, a well paid job for life, working with a senior colleague he likes and a bunch of players he has I assume personally selected.
There are two possible caveats to this.
1. As long as King does not start appointing extra people who diminish his control
2. If the Club does not get to at least play offs next season. Then questions may be asked about having plateaued

He'll be expected to get them in the play offs straight away at the very least or else he'll be sacked.
A backwards step as far as I can see.
A smaller club than us with no time to build it the way he would want

Speaking of Hull, I wouldn’t mind Rosenior as first team coach.
Can’t see Robbings going there, incidentally.

Indeed. And I think there’s even more to it on a personal level , there’s a reason he’s never linked with other jobs and the Sunderland offer was squashed

Is Robins too defensive?

He’s a slow and steady wins the race kind of manager.

He'd have to be mad to go and work for that eejit who was on Sky the other day saying Rosenior was too defensive and they want attacking football
I wouldn’t mind Jurgen Klopp as first team coach, about the same likelihood as Rosenior.

There isn’t a job in this league he’d leave for anyway.

As has been said before (I think by Boddy?), Robins is a very big family man. He doesn't crave the limelight, he enjoys being with his wife and kids.
Robins himself has also said how easy his job has become as he has all his own staff in place who he trusts, and because of that his job is not a stressful 24/7 role. He talked about how stressful it was at the start as he had to put all these things in place.
I really can't see him throwing all that away for the Hull. I think it would take a very big club to lure him from us

I think we're all clever enough to work out this will never happen.
Too defensive of Latibeaudiere.

I agree in fact I think Mark may even become a director in the future he has certainly earned it.

Bit like Poundland saying they are going to compete with Harrods and start selling caviar and Foie gras.

I reckon that’s spot on.
He seems really committed to the Sky Blues “project” and I’m sure we will have him for a few more years to come.

If we don't make the play offs during the next few years he won't be here. Doug has lofty ambitions.

. But Ferguson always defended his players in front of the media. But a bit more caustic on the training ground.The idea of managers lambasting players at half time is old school and out of date. Players know when they are having a bad game they don't need telling. What players need at halftime is advice and solutions. Ferguson never ripped into players when they were losing or playing badly. The time he was critical was in games when they were 3-0 at halftime and flying and getting arrogant.

We will see what dougs ambitions are like in the summer transfer window. No one really knows if he is here to put all the money that the club makes back into the club to buy players etc or to take money out for himself.
only time will tell.

Yeah, his got sky blue blood.I just can’t see Robins leaving us for anyone at this point, even if Man U offered him a pop at the poisoned chalice!
