MarkDevriesScores4 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Does Robinson fit Ann’s “very experienced and high profile” description? slightly experienced and low profile in my opinion. i don’t dislike him but I’m not sure he fits the profile described in her interview.

I wasn't aware he was a shitebag bottle merchant choker? It’s incredible isn’t it? Seems everyone that graces their pish covered strip is seduced by the myth of Hibs having a ‘style’. In fairness to him he did play in one of their better sides and maybe thinks that’s how it should be, but how many have they had in the last 40 odd years? They’ve been utter shite for most part.

Guest ToqueJambo Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 (edited) If we're insisting on looking at managers who had Motherwell punching above their weight, Stuart McCall did a much, much better job than Robinson and has much more experience, including doing much better in England than Robinson did. I really don't get the shouts for Robinson (not just because I get bad flashbacks when I heard that name). There's a very real risk that Robinson is just this year's Tommy Wright, Alan Archibald, etc, etc. Don't want McCall either by the way.

GinRummy Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 (edited) Candidates like Moyes are few and far between. Any big name, experienced guy is likely to be on a downward curve. Even a spent force. Any up and coming manager such as Robinson will be seen as a gamble but could be the next big name. It’s tricky but on balance a young manager with a decent track record so far would probably be the best option.
