elvis Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 Hope he doesn't take us back to playing 3 at the back as some are saying over on P&b he did with well .That's if he comes . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott-Leeds Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 Our managerial expectations have to be realistic. Whilst we may wish for a ‘bigger name’ the reality is we are a club run on a tight budget.This is a good candidate at this point in the season. If a deal is concluded ? Then let’s give the guy a chance to get his coat off before we character assassinate him.Welcome to our club is my thoughts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not a chance, before Glass resigned, that we would have spent a second wondering who we would eventually replace him with. As it turns out there's a dearth of realistic, affordable replacements available at this juncture in time. Is Robinson the perfect choice? No, IMO, but his credentials, for the most part, are a good fit for the club. Maybe we are paying over the odds, but I'm sure that Aberdeen paid us over the odds. Only time will tell if he's a success with us. Have to say this is exactly where i am on this. You've summed it up really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithers Jones Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 I would be quite happy with Robinson, considering some of the names linked with us over the past few days. I still can't see the Kibble conspiracy angle yet, but I am sure there are a few who are searching for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portmahomack saint Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 Just had a look at their results since the turn of the year not too shabby, striker Cole Stockton ex Heart's player was top scorer in the league at the end of December seem's to have hit a bit of form suddenly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If JG had moved end of the season i think we would have been appointing better! On your post i very much hope its the latter Anyway glad he's in place for Wed as we have a couple of big games coming in next few days.

Bgsaint Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 If Robinson is appointed hopefully he can bring his assistant sounds an intelligent speaker good at handling the media, more than a little like Goodwin. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmettroll Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 I'd be well pleased if this goes through, he done a great job at Motherwell, and supposedly is a really decent bloke aswell.. He took the loss of form at M'well really badly apparently and quit his post, most managers would have held out for a payoff.... Make it happen Saints.

Be nice to get new manager bounce But JG didn't stay to the end of the season so we are where we are. From what I can see , at this point in time , there isn't a great choice and at least two who we fancied aren't interested in joining us . We are probably getting as good as we can at the present time. He is experienced but still young . We could have done much worse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
