Because it's relevant to this season , this football club and its recent history

It's a football forum , for coventry fucking city
In one breath you have a go at someone else for mentioning his name and then defend yourself your doing the same thing.
Ultimate hypocrisy

nick was on about me always mentioning robins and I pointed out to him that he was mentioning him all the time too basically.

No hypocrisy there

As you do frequentl

I genuinely don’t understand why anyone shouldn’t mention anyone they want, especially someone who is such a huge part of our history. Why is it so many people get so aggressive and petulant whenever they get the faintest whiff that Mark Robins is being talked about in some capacity?

I was illustrating the hypocrisy of his comment. Nothing else. Dig deeper for context next time

It's the scout that recommends and then it's up to the Manager whether to say, yes or no.

So it isn't just due to him is it

and here’s the problem, clearly going for players who’s wages we can’t afford hoping we can twist their arm into signing ( wish somebody would of twisted Collins arms off ) wer‘e then left with prob the 2nd or even 3rd choice, like robins asked for another centre forward and assante was the best option ? Imagine who the 2nd and 3rd choice were, clearly the scouting isn’t good enough anymore, we’ve gone from hamer and gykores to assante, Thomas, torp and da silva, there’s the problem

No way he gets 3 windows if things don't improve.
Doesn't need to make us world beaters but needs to be much better than so far. If he can't do that by Autumn next year he won't get January 26.
I keep saying it, but if the coaches we have now are as good as we've been told then they should be able to get these players playing to somewhere near the level they were at last winter.

That shouldn't take over a year and 3 windows.

Exactly, don't just after a couple of months but after a January and a full Summer window / preseason there should be noticeable differences.

And of course we are all assuming that the new additions hit the ground running……

So the thread once more is a thinly veiled MR v FL debate, yay

How would you like us to critique our manager without discussing what he’s supposed to be better than? It’s such a bizarre demand. Even if no one mentions Robins he gets brought up by one side or the other.

Whatever you believe at some point you will have to question lampard and his methods .

Let's look at yesterday in isolation , why didn't we shut up shop ? Why after we concede are we still chasing balls in their half and being caught on the counter with a 40 yard pass ?

Why is the team not sat compact and aggressively pressing across the front to cover passing lanes and push them back up the pitch and protect a point ATLEAST

What happened yesterday isn't acceptable when you perform the way we did in that second half

I don't care who is the manager that is not good game management at all

This is where they pass the ball 40 yards down the line and we are left with only defenders in our half with our midfield and forwards all at sea Screenshot_20250105_221530_YouTube.jpg

Why are we so high up the pitch and not trying to protect the point after just conceding

Because they went so hard on 'Robins must be sacked so we can save the season' and then went so hard on 'Lampard has immediately improved us, we look so much better' and now have to stick to their guns.

Can you quote / link to these posts? Yeah you got some likes from people still crying about Robins, but actually quote them.

It's actually quite weird how much shit gets made up because people are still sore about Robins going.
