    Not a ****ing chance in hell Robins is leaving Coventry to come here. They reinvested about £40m last season and will likely spend big again this summer. Expect them to have a real good go this season

    If that's true we'll never get anywhere with Speakman and co. calling every shot in the book.

    Madness if true. But I don't see the logic in why they would do that.

    I saw another video of him taking time out in pre season last year to speak with the fans and thank them all for coming over to turkey, can’t find it now but I think he will win us all round and get us to buy into him, if he is the one that is

    He is a very good option to be honest but as with every coach he needs support from the club on transfers etc.

    He also must be allowed to get on with tactics and team selection without any influence from elsewhere at the club. This one is the biggest sticking point for me, more so than the transfers.

    As much as I hope it’ll be Cifuentes, there’s no evidence whatsoever apart from some Nixon click bait that we’ve even tried. There are no rumours whatsoever that QPR are looking around for a manager or the expectation he’ll be leaving them.

    Couldn’t agree more, if you don’t trust your head coach to be exactly that then we might aswell give up now

    I keep mentioning team selection etc and it stems from this article in December.

    https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/head-coach-final-say-team-28333230?t=

    That was meant to put to bed the rumours that Speakman influences the team but it done the complete opposite for me. Speakman should have absolutely nothing to do with choosing the squad and I’m betting just his personality and self-confidence (self-importance?) could make some coaches feel like they need to start a certain player.

    His involvement would 100% put some potential coaches off.
