Skivingatwork Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 AB needs to take her time and get this one right. She has announced AM as interim manager and that the process will take 4-6 weeks. To announce anything today, or even this week, smacks of panic and desperation. Take the time to conduct a proper process, interview the stand out candidates, and make an inspiring appointment that gets the fans on side. IMO, appointing Robinson is not what the fans are looking for and AB risks a serious backlash following 2 disasters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I agree she needs to take her time, we do not have weeks and weeks to spare. After yesterday's debacle it is obvious for anyone to see that the team is in dire straights it will take considerable time to get it sorted i.e., we do not have a great deal of time if we want to avoid a real relegation battle.

FruitJuice Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 57 minutes ago, Enzo Chiefo said: We had an experienced manager but they can, as we saw be stuck in their ways and revert to methods of old. Imo we need a manager with experience who can adapt. Robinson completely ripped up Mwell's style of play halfway through last season, persevered with the young players and was rewarded with a great run of form. Pretty much what we're looking for right now. I'm not saying he is the best candidate but I would prefer someone like him, on the upward trajectory of his career, someone who knows the Scottish game rather than a big name looking for a last pay day. Having said that, if Davie Moyes was available then it would be a real coup in terms of possibly challenging the OF. I'm genuinely amazed that you would be advocating Robinson. His record over the last couple of seasons I'd similar to leveins. A couple of cup runs and one decent run of league games. I can't see what he would bring that levein didn't. I hope we aren't going for him because if the cup runs. Our boards ambition has to be higher than whatever money a cup run brings in. Robinson hasn't earned the right to manage hearts yet. He hasn't even had a good consistent league season yet. As for unearthing gems from.the lower league in England, has he been that successful at it? For someone so vocal in his criticism of levein, I'm really surprised at you wanting Robinson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
