Luton could be dark horses for a play off place! Watched the highlights of the game, how WBA never scored I don’t know they easily could have been 4 up by half time, but have to say Campbell’s goal was a cracker.

C&A not the shop Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 Saw one of the players in the New Zealand vs USA women's game got a first half hattrick of own goals. Even Stephen Craigen never managed that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
middleeastdave Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 It’s being reported Our old manager Stephen Robinson is in line for the St Mirren job, I would be surprised at that if true, I wonder if he would come and get Lasley as an assistant?

C&A not the shop Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 Makes sense since he already managed half their squad... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 If it wasn't for teams like us thinking outside the box, the Premiership would just be the same 12 managers rotating between clubs until one of them dies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grizzlyg Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 Morecambe 4th bottom in league 1 so not sure why they are so keen. I liked robbo when he first took over and liked him as a person but the signings further down the line cost him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 I like Robbo and I reckon he'd bring a bit of class to St Mirren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfc Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 You never know if there's any other circumstances involved but I'm surprised robbo is coming back up the road so soon after leaving us,I thought he would have been looking at a long stay down south.thats a decent appointment for them considering they had spoke to the likes of brown and naismith.

MJC Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 To be fair his managerial stock was never higher than it was up here with us from 2017 until about 2019. Two Cup Finals in the same season, was in charge when David Turnbull broke into first team football, was linked heavily with the managers jobs at Hearts and Northern Ireland and, regardless of the circumstances, ‘finished 3rd’ and qualified for Europe with us in the curtailed 19/20 season. He’s a good fit for the game up here and vice-versa, I can completely see why he’d be keen to come back to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkyred Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 I can understand why St Mirren would be interested, his record up here is good regardless of what some may think. St Mirren goal every season is staying in the division and Robinson has shown he’s more than capable of doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spit_It_Out Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 The last year he was with us it was brutal won about 8 games or so in the league a couple in the cup he was lucky to be at a club with a decent board cause he would have been sacked! Left us in an utter mess in utter freefall and would have took us down if he stayed. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 He stayed with us a year, possibly two years too long imo. I liked Robinson, he was a breath of fresh air in his first season after the awful era that was McGhee’s second spell and the Cup Final season was one of the most enjoyable we’ve had in the last decade. His transfer business in the subsequent windows let him down badly though, albeit he was hamstrung by our scouting policy. Season 18/19 was eyebleedingly bad for the first part with us basically playing hoofball to a front line of Curtis Main and Conor Sammon, before he eventually brought Turnbull and Hastie into the side which ended up being the bright lights of that season. Had he moved on in summer 2019 or to Hearts when linked in the Autumn of that year it would probably have been best for both parties. I know some will point to ‘a 3rd placed’ finish in 2020 but we were poor for the majority of that season and our form from the winter shutdown to the covid abandonment was dismal and it seemed like a case of who was less likely to cut our own throats between ourselves and Aberdeen as to who would get 3rd. As it was the season was stopped hours before we were due to play Aberdeen and we ended ‘finishing 3rd’ by default. The less said about our 2020 transfer business and form until he left, the better. But all in all, Robinson is a good guy and I wish him well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over the piece SR did a very good job for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saved by the players he coached and helped develop? Sounds like a recommendation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
