It is also worth noting that Adi was only ever here in the first place owing to a freak set of circumstances where MR's original no. 2 had a really serious illness
I don't buy that MR depends on him and has all of a sudden turned into a bad manager overnight now he has gone - He has managed the rest of his career with a different No. 2
That is very harsh tbh, he hasn't hit the heights he has here but he certainly hasn't done a terrible job anywhere in his managerial careerYeah but the rest of his career hasn’t been particularly good.
Didn't know that.He released his farewell statement through his solicitor, which is highly unusual.
Yep the knives are out,we say it's the players letting him down, but perversely their actions could easily against the owner?He looks a lost soul on the touchline now he's without AV and Big Den
Yeah but the rest of his career hasn’t been particularly good.
He took rotherham from -17 points to 58 points , would have finished 5th on 75 points .
Saved Barnsley from relegation
That's pretty good no ?
Rotherham I’ll give you. Barnsley his overall record was pretty poor (lowest win percentage in his managerial career). He’s generally done well in L1 and not so well in the Championship.
What did you expect Barnsley to do they have mostly yo-yo'd between the Championship and L1 in my time watching football keeping their heads above water was an ok jobRotherham I’ll give you. Barnsley his overall record was pretty poor (lowest win percentage in his managerial career). He’s generally done well in L1 and not so well in the Championship.
He seems to thrive when he's got no money to spend. If he is in control then his signings have been poor last couple of years
OK not poor but not worth the money we've spentRobins isn't identifying the players , he's basically saying yes or no to signing them
The scouts are identifying the players
And they aren't poor players are they ?
The fees being paid , well that's entirely up for scrutiny

Well that's yet to be seen isn't it ? Most these players gave us some great moments last season and showed some real potential ..hopefully we can reignite thatOK not poor but not worth the money we've spent
Agreed, we’ve been here before and things turned out alright. Of course, this doesn’t guarantee our form will pick up, it’s a cause for optimism that MR will turn it around.It is also worth noting that Adi was only ever here in the first place owing to a freak set of circumstances where MR's original no. 2 had a really serious illness

We've only won 3 league games since the Wolves ¼ Final. Simply not good enoughWell that's yet to be seen isn't it ? Most these players gave us some great moments last season and showed some real potential ..hopefully we can reignite that
Yes I understand that but it was basically accepted amongst many of the fans that we'd blown out last season because of the cup run (not me ) now they are using the end of season as ammunition , it's nonsense reallyWe've only won 3 league games since the Wolves ¼ Final. Simply not good enough
Not necessarily, we're just not that good and need better players to compete at the topYes I understand that but it was basically accepted amongst many of the fans that we'd blown out last season because of the cup run (not me ) now they are using the end of season as ammunition , it's nonsense really

Our patched up defence plus Ben Wilson got the golden glove in 22/23, which tells me something else is amiss. Midfield, to be specific.Agreed, we’ve been here before and things turned out alright.

On hand, you’ve got people saying AV leaving is a cause of things going badly, conveniently ignoring our bad form in March/April last season. At the same time, using that set of circumstances (poor end of season form), to support the case for sacking MR.
The team still isn’t good enough, the defence and midfield units just aren’t good enough to compete at the top end of the Championship. Even last season, our form against the top half teams (compared to 22/23) shows this clearly.
We lost alot of energy with hamer and we haven't replaced him have weOur patched up defence plus Ben Wilson got the golden glove in 22/23, which tells me something else is amiss. Midfield, to be specific.
Too weak to protect the defence, too ineffective to drive the team forward. The most important part of the pitch and it’s being carried right now by Josh Eccles.
Except your conviently forgetting that Lawrence had gone for want of a better contract,and you have to a lead in to these appointments, they don't just happen do they?Agreed, we’ve been here before and things turned out alright.

Energy has been lost further up the pitch in COH as well, but there hasn’t been an engine room since Hamer went. It’s hurting us at both ends.We lost alot of energy with hamer and we haven't replaced him have we
Going on about others making slurs and then make one yourself.I love how you're all assuming it was gross misconduct on his part. Bit of a slur. From what I understood and I don't claim to be itk, it was a straight choice between him and Robins and they of course favoured the manager based on the previous. That to me says it's a breakdown in their relationship. I was told the reason for that was Adi's mrs, but don't know how much truth there is in it as often these things get embellished.
That’s probably based on the rumour posted on here.I was told it was Adi's response to being introduced to the new Performance Director - "no-one is going to tell me what to do".
Bye Adi.

I'm not protesting about the slur, only that it was all assumed it was on Adi and not Robins, that's why I said slur. Mine hopefully is balancing that opinion as they mostly seem guesses and I'd heard different. Could be the others, mine or none of them that's correct and I did say often embellished.this is just as big a slur as the ones you’re protesting about
Is semi-decent good enough here?Barnsley were a poor side that were way out their depth financially at the time , they finished 17th in 2010-11 under Robins and 21st the 2seasons after he left and relegation the season after that
This would indicate he did a semi decent job there if the 3 managers after did worse
Context matters
Just get it done and pay the compo, it's a bit sick for me, they're never going to recreate the combo we previously had!Is semi-decent good enough here?
