Ex-Staff Karl Robinson

[Grumpy Git]

Isn’t he just the previous manager minus the violence?

Sounds the same…. Talks utter B*****s.

I dislike Bristol Rovers and have done for quite some time and the pussies have even banned me from their forum! But even I wouldn’t wish Robinson on them!

Oh God, I would. I'd laugh my tits off.

Plus a ladies man ......as opposed to the Milky Bar Scouse Kid ..

So three and a half weeks on from removing their manager (of their own volition - i.e. it didn't catch them off guard), and they still haven't appointed a permanent replacement - despite evidently plumbing the absolute depths of the managerial pool?

Compare and contrast with how quickly and professionally (and from such a quality pool of options) we replaced a manager who completely left us in the lurch.

Embarassing for Bristol Rovers and another indication of how we're doing things better than those around us.

Having understood every word of the above, I can confirm with 100% accuracy that that was not KR speaking.
Or, somebody has spent many hours deciphering the normally deranged gibberish.

Of course he's turned it down. He's a very busy man.

If he had a job in management, how would he have the time to ring up isolated, elderly supporters for £5k a week out of the goodness of his heart?

I actually think it’s best that Robinson manages outside of league one, other than one season where he got relegated with MK Dons every other season has been at this level, even with his personal problems I still think he was a bit of a busted flush at this level who was just doing the same things and going through the motions, drop down or try a different country, change is as good as a rest (or in this case on top of a rest.

He obviously applied for the Bristol Rovers job though to get knocked back so see that he is intent on staying at what for him is the highest possible level and wages, not necessarily best for his career in the long run though.

If clubs like Rovers do their due diligence, surely it can't be a suprise he's not getting offered jobs at this level. Would have thought he's severely damaged his reputation with how he finished here

Sentences were finished. Subjects remained consistent.

I call bullshit on that being KR at all.

The same can be said for their deadline dealing with Clarke Harris. Completely amateurish!

Maybe in the running for the Republic of Ireland job..?

That’ll cheer Mark Sykes up no end.

Republic are not giving Robinson the job, he has no chance of it, but obviously he will turn it down despite not getting offered it.

Robinsons always been full of bullshit, if he was Irish it would of been blarney

And still they employed Joey Barton.

 

[notThisWayButThat]

Shirley Rob Page will get the elbow soon...

Edit: He's already turned the job down.
