    Not his team.

    Can't blame him for Slade buying Crofts or Ajose.

    Can blame him for playing Crofts though
    We don't have any other central midfielders that are any better.

    Exactly.
  • Just take a listen to his post match press conferenc at Bradford.The guy is just brimming with confidence and a passion for our club we should all be Proud of .Despite lacking 5or 6 players and playing with some who were obviously not 100% we nearly beat a team unbeaten at home this season.He set his team up to win the game -no disrespect to Slade but he would have played for a draw.I really hope that this could be the start of anew beginning and would ask all of you who have boycotted the club this season to come back to the Valley next week and get right behind the team.They Deserve your support.COYR

    What do you think now?

    I did an interview with Josh Magennis last week for The Sunday Life in Belfast and he said the players are really fired up for Millwall. They know what it means to the fans and maybe Robinson's the kind of manager too who won't get intimidated by going there and that'll rub off on the players. Most of the interview was about Northern Ireland and he even said that during the recent internationals him and Shane Ferguson were talking about the Millwall game.

    Sadly no evidence of this from too many charlatans in red tonight, Magennis excepted - piss taking lightweight jessies

    Maginnis was poor again tonight.

    A shadow of the player we saw V Coventry and Port Vale.

    I wonder how many players know they are going this Jan, by choice or because not wanted and so aren't playing for the manager.

    Am feeling Robinson is a bit Pardew-esque in his patter - and that will never be a good thing.

    Early days, but time to back up the talk by getting more out of the squad despite the injuries etc.

    Not just me that was reminded of Pardew then.

    He's a chancer, just like AllLeftFoot says, very Pardew-esque.

    Said on day one - his blind positivity and arrogance may be refreshing to start with, but it won't wash if the team perform poorly for a prolonged spell.

    Game 5: 0 wins, 2 goals.

    Karl Robinson has failed to win any of his last 9 games as a manager & only won 3 of last 19.

    "It’s not about being desperate to win, it’s about being desperate to bring players in to start winning."

    Good to know we can blame failing to win on not being able to sign players.

    He looked miserable in the pre-match interview.

    He's already ages 5 years in less than a month.

    I'm sure he had the chance to sign players at MKD and where were they when they sacked him!

    What on earth is this man on?

    He bangs on about how much this match means to everyone and how important it is for us to get on a winning streak and to get the fans on board with points.. He bottles the big match, and now..

    KR: “It’s not about being desperate to win, it’s about being desperate to bring players in to start winning.

    “If we won a game, it would be masking an awful lot of problems, to be totally honest."

    Righty-o.

    P.s. where's the fans meetings to hear things about why we are protesting? You still too busy talking on BBC news on the morning of your biggest career match, and bottling it. No respect here pal.

    Listen fellas, I may be in the minority here but personally I think digging Robinson out is wide of the mark, albeit understandable.

    Don't get me wrong, I've never really "liked" him and he has the sort of face you want to smack, but how is this his fault? I mean, really his fault.

    Brussels Slave knew he had a pile of shite for a squad so set us up not to get beat. Karl hasn't worked that out yet, or maybe never will, but he is still limited by the hand he's been dealt.

    Personally I don't think it matters who manages us because we are a busted flush and there's one mighty Fucking turd down there that doesn't look like it's going anywhere anytime soon.

    We be fucked.

    He hasn't been dealt any hand. He accepted the hand out of choice, and clearly ignored all that was wrote on the wall.

    But I agree, it is harsh, but also it is somewhat warranted due to his ignorance. He expected an easier ride, and his own greed, ignorance and cockiness is sticking him in an awkward position, a man with 3 wins in 19 matches I believe. At League One standard. Poor.

    Football is a harsh game these days, harsher on us fans who have no real say in things than it is for players and managers, unfortunately.

    Nothing really matters except RD selling up - so it's almost pointless talking about the passing ships during this all.
  • When will football fans ever learn. lots of people on here getting carried away by few likable soundbites from KR when he was appointed, now lots of people getting carried away by a few mediocre to poor results.

    Short termism is killing this club.

    He seems to be making a rod for his own back - his initial 'meet the protesters/get everyone on board' crap has been forgotten - the last interview I saw (there seem to be so many compared to Slade) he just brushed off a question about that.... now this 'talk to each player tomorrow and find out the truth'... well - if they have it out tomorrow and then they still don't put in a shift at MK on Boxing day, then he's gonna have nowhere to go except out

    Out of work bloke takes job shocker.
    Bloke thinks he can make a difference shocker.
    Bloke sold a pup shocker.

    Happens all the time in just about any industry you care to think of.

    But, again, in no way am I looking to defend him as I've never liked or rated him from way back. But he's not the problem, in my view, just a symptom of the problem.

    What fans say on the internet isn't going to lose him his job. It'll be after RD sacks him either for poor results or falling out with him or KM.

    Let's hope Robinson has seen the CL player mark stats.
