"Sky Sources: MK Dons manager Karl Robinson in talks with Sheffield United over vacant managers job"

Like i said this morning on another thread, don't be suprised to see Robinsons' odds tumble in this merry go round of bookies odds.

 

[sitwell]

Will we give him the 5 seasons it took him to take MK up ?

 

[Zanzibar]

Will we give him the 5 seasons it took him to take MK up ?

Of course we won't....he won't need them'

 

[wizadry]

Will we give him the 5 seasons it took him to take MK up ?

If he gets nothing to spend then yes, he can have some time

 

[Ashtonsmashton]

Will we give him the 5 seasons it took him to take MK up ?

Yh but compare mk Dons to where they were when he picked them up, to where we are now

 

[bladesman3]

why woud he leave MK Dons now?

 

[yorkshirecoast]

If he gets us playing like MK Plastics - attacking football with a bit of steel - it would be a step forward

 

[wizadry]

Plus Mk plastics are no where near the size of our club so i'd say he's over achieved.

 

[Barney]

I would be more happy with him than Parkinson, but Adkins would still be my 1st choice.

So Karl Robinson has worked for 6/7 years to get them promoted, has a chairman with a fairly generous cheque book and wants to come to the team who's fans didn't think he was good enough when Clough took over and have doled out a fair bit of abuse to him over the years, with expectation of promotion in season 1 (for him not us obviously)?! One word.... Why?

Fair enough we are a "big club" with a decent budget but why take a step back and have a season to turn a failing club round when he can stay there and reap what he's sown for the last half decade and keep his reputation intact in the process?

Has to be someone either failing or on their way out of a current club if we are pinching someone as it's career suicide if you're in a settled role.

 

[Eggman1889]

Yes please.

If he doesn't disagree with the board when they say we want you to play more attacking football he may get longet than a yeat.

I don't give a shit what league Mk Plastics are in, we would still be a bigger pull than them any day of the week. Ffs, how far have we actually fallen if this isn't the case.

 

[Esablade]

why woud he leave MK Dons now?

His contract is up this summer, might be playing us for more cash (cynical head) or alternately, I believe he's had a rocky relationship with Pete Winkelman over the years and maybe doesn't fancy what's being offered there?

Who could possibly tell...

 

[sitwell]

Has everyone forgot how bad it was to watch MK against us this season ?

 

[Grappler]

That was from ages ago wasn't it?

Could be mate, I am at work and just had it forwarded on email, if anyone is on twitter, they could find it maybe?

I didn't believe it, hence my "?" at the end, I can't imagine he would be looking to leave a promoted club.

 

[yorkshirecoast]

I didn't enjoy being bullied by them - but that said more about us than them.

Seen them several times on tv and they were decent to watch and scored for fun.

 

[wizadry]

They were obviously finding the best way to beat us, i think he said as much in the interview afterwards.

In that case, why start your thread "just seen on Sky Sports News"?

 

[judge]

Would love this fella as our manager
for all the right reasons plus he seems to hate the pigs

 

[mosbolad]

Just seen on Pathe News,
"Prime Minister Chamberlian has declared war on Germany"

 

[Kevincarterversion2.0]

I would be happy with KR - but why would he drop down when just getting himself in the championship with MK Dons?

 

[Caseh]

I wanted him before Clough and I still want him. I just don't see why he would join us, not that I would complain if he did!

 

[sothall blade]

attacking football ? whats that ?

 

[Blade56]

Che Adam is he the new Deli Ali?

 

[Grappler]

Yep, apologies, typing quick at work, was forwarded an email that had a twitter post (tweet) in it, from another Blade, he also sent me a link to a site where Warburton says he has been approached by SUFC but doesn't want to drop back to League One

 

[Blade56]

I read somewhere today that he wants to move north to be near his family! Not sure where they are based.
