No hard feelings against the guy in anyway but I don't think he is what we need in the current circumstances. At the start of the season I would have been fully behind it at the moment I'm dubious.
 






What kind of football does he have them playing at MK Dons? Hyppia tried yet ended up utterly decimating our possession football whilst attempting to make us a more attacking side. We desperately need to recapture our style of previous seasons. If Robinson can do that then I am absolutely all for it.

He's just the sort of coach to fit in with TB's preferred structure for the club.

He always seemed like the natural successor to Gus.

Assuming Pulis is not an option, at least Robinson hasn't been tainted by being sacked yet.

He wouldn't be my first choice but could see Bloom and Barber giving him the job.

Unless of course we are going to make changes in our setup.

i hope this is some sort of joke we need someone with expeirence of the championship and hes not that man

It's no joke. Essentially we're looking for a head coach rather than a manager within the current set up. The likes of Pulis & Hughton would want a manager position who leads then delegates on recruitment, that's not the job on offer. Under these conditions, he is actually a good candidate.

Now take those blue and white specs off.

Absolutely not. This is great job for a young manager to come into.

You have a squad that is better than their league position.
You have money to spend
The expectation this year is avoid relegation which if you are a decent manager will be achieved

In effect you have 2 transfer windows and 6 months to get things right before having a tilt at promotion next year. Clearly Brighton is the better prospect, you'd be mad to think otherwise.

If I believed the your reasons for choosing Brighton were correct, I would be mad not to choose them. But I don't believe you reasons are correct, so I must be mad.

Brighton factually.....
Do we want the same tired old failures like Hughton or McDermott or someone like Robinson who is on the up and deserves a crack, MK Dons are playing some terrific attacking football at the moment and he would be a great choice for me

This with bells on...........
