arbitro Posted November 7, 2024 Share Posted November 7, 2024 Football has come up with a new way to surprise me after Coventry sacked Mark Robins today. He dragged that club up by the bootlaces and gave the club some identity and pride back despite multiple obstacles he had to overcome. He won't be out of work for long. I wonder if Eustace will be on their wanted list? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue blood Posted November 7, 2024 Share Posted November 7, 2024 Stupid, stupid decision by Coventry. First off when you look at what he has done over seven years - he's had them performing really well, and transformed the club's position, with a couple of very near misses on big success. Even looking in the short term,recently they have beaten Boro and Luton, two decent sides, so the signs of recovery this year were there. It's an appalling decision. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry are in an early relegation fight and he has a good track record of keeping clubs up. And he will be cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkBRFC Posted November 7, 2024 Share Posted November 7, 2024 Just now, arbitro said: Ex Coventry player. Coventry are in an early relegation fight and he has a good track record of keeping clubs up. And he will be cheap. I dunno. If Eustace was a free agent I could see someone like a Coventry looking at him, I don't think they would want him enough to pay compensation thought even if he would be fairly cheap.

I'm not aware of too many out of work managers out there so Coventry may well have to pay compensation for most of their targets. As you say Eustace would be cheap even if he has a release clause in his contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverblue Posted November 7, 2024 Share Posted November 7, 2024 Crazy after all he has done for the club. I wonder what the fans feeling is as that's normally a good barometer if its as mental as it looks from the outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbrovers2288 Posted November 7, 2024 Share Posted November 7, 2024 Coventry fans are fuming and rightly so, robins made them relevant again. And they aren’t even that far away in the league. as much as I was happy with eustace and have defended him there still seems to be an issue with making us an attacking side , there is red flags for sure , he hasn’t stamped any identity in this side and any that he had- hard to beat- is currently crumbling id be happy with robins here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHRover Posted November 7, 2024 Share Posted November 7, 2024 Pep Guardiola could offer to walk to Brockhall and work for free and this regime would either turn him away or make the job impossible. Doesn't matter who sits in the dugout or how good they are. A regime with no ambition or interest will demolish and suck the life out of whatever good he gets going. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norbert Rassragr Posted November 9, 2024 Share Posted November 9, 2024 Absolutely right SG. He just has the feel of a colourless, banal guy when being a pundit or a manager. Living in Coventry, I know the fans are livid with this decision. Robins has guided them through some atrocious times and they love him for that. If Frank does get the job, he'll not get long before the fans will want him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roversfan99 Posted November 9, 2024 Share Posted November 9, 2024 Considering that it allowed him to play every game in a Premier League season, to suggest that it was unwise would be wrong. Similar to Szmodics, was probably a last chance to do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
