    Seems a touch arrogant, no? Or maybe just afraid of the competition?

    I'd be telling him to foxtrot oscar if I was Acun, but I highly doubt it's true. He'd made it clear even before Tim was sacked that he was interested

    Looking at the competition he shouldn't be. Get him in!

    Is that really true though? I mean, an interview for a known, respected manager must be a two way thing.. discuss ambitions, budgets, time periods, expectations etc so I couldn't see why he would reject that. Obviously different for a manager with no experience at the level or size of the club.

    I think it was El Tel who famously said I don’t do auditions when asked to apply for a job

    I wonder if Kasey Palmer would be pleased to see Mr Robins rocking up at the MKM as the new manager ?:emoticon-0138-think

    Heard any rumours about the new manager? Robins is 5/1 on Sky bet so tempted to put £50 on it

    Nothing bar Robins is interested, but he was before Tim was sacked and had made it known

    Seems a bit up his own arse, why should he not expect to be interviewed like everybody else. Nothing against the bloke personally or his ability but if you are about to pay someone a stack of cash and back them in the transfer window, surely having an interview is Standard.

    Absolute premium grade bollocks from Nixon. Suggesting Robins doesn’t want to tell the chairman what his vision and demands are. Risible.

    It's a tough game predicting management replacements,more so with our current owner.

    how much for a private detective?

    if the bet pays off, more than covers 24/7 costs right?

    It’s due to our current owner why I’m holding off, Robins seems far too sensible for him <laugh>

    I can relate to that, even I wouldn't want to be interviewed by Acun who has no idea about football.

    I'm thinking the same. Didn't they have a fall out?

    Re Robins, I was all for go and get him, BUT, I would want to know who his coaching staff are. Seems his right hand at Coventry helped him enormously and left which may have led to his demise... I wouldn't want AD as number 2 or 3 or 4..
