    Apparently, he hasn't been told yet, but Leeds are about to sack him and replace him with Karl Robinson.

    I loathe Robinson, with his smarmy ways. And his little mates like Bullard and Fowler. L**ds just got even more dislikeable... If that's possible.

    He's a good young manager. I can see him doing well at Leeds if they give him more than 10 games.

    Mmm not sure you'd have many local plastics around my way agree. Bit of a loan ranger. When he got Benik Afobe or Bamford, great. Then he got Poyet's lad and Forster Caskey they went down like a stone. They all thought he was tactically one dimensional. I almost glad he's there as well as thinking he's a tool .

    Miss fat Steve though [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

    Hasn't Robinson turned them down?

    Came through the youth. Insanely talented. Even Terry Dolan recognised Deano was good. Doesn't make him Jurgen Klopp.

    Windass was also released by well respected coach or manager Brian Horton. It's the responsibility of the manager to make sure player development matches the clubs expectations.

    Robinson is a bit good for Leeds though isn't he? Hardly surprising. I'm sure I've heard some quite big clubs linked with him.

    To be fair Dele Ali is the best prospect as a centre mid in England in the last 15 years. If Robinson couldn't differentiate between him and Dean Bowditch, he'd be off to Leek... Not wanted by Leeds.

    Either way, he's a highly rated young manager who has despite relegation with MK done a good job.

    Yeh. Like I said there's plenty of the IKEA plastics who think Rotherham surviving, Huddersfield surviving, on similar and even lower budgets, showed him up. The fact that Rotherham rocked up and smashed Larry out may have revealed that he's not exactly the manager for the important game.

    So, using your quote above as a barometer for our performances. Discuss our away performances away at Charlton, Rotherham, Preston, Leeds and Bolton? Our budget, which was probably the biggest in the Championship yet we lost to some of the worst footballing sides in the league.

    Well Bolton was a bit irrelevant but the rest were dreadful and I was at the first 3 on the list. I think we've underachieved hugely this year.

    I'm just telling you the "fans" that I know locally, don't rate him like the national press do. They think he's a one trick pony and played some very one dimensional football. I do think he's overrated too.

    I think Bruce could well be gone after Saturday... I'd hate us to have that smug scouser, I know that...

    Agree with the last sentence. Think Saturday is Bruce's last game in charge come what may. Robinson wouldn't be on my list to replace him
