I like Pete, Chairman and a fan, quite happy to mix in with the supporters and chat, pretty unique chap I would say in his capacity.

If he were to sell up, I think it’s about time Richard Branson bought a football club, we could be the MK Virgins....


No way, I've seen us getting fucked loads this season.

There was funding, just very badly spent...

..and that ultimately is what cost Robbo his job; more so than the actual results, I'd say. Having heard Pete's comments/quotes over the likes of Benavente, Aguza, Jennings and Matt Upson, I think the wasting of money that previous summer was a bigger factor in his eventual dismissal than results and league position. That's a huge outlay there for players who contributed absolutely nothing.


But the chief scout never gets the blame. Funny that!

all of those players were quite clearly robbo flying solo.


So what did Pete say exactly? Cause I do find it hard to believe his son is not partly responsible for the shit served then and now

Pete has said against his and the recruitment team advice Karl insisted on his choices for Champ season and that back fired because we had a "shit"team

So why not sack him after we went down? Leaving it to him to make another bungle of the transfer window shows a complete lack of sense if that is the reason Robbo was sacked.

PS: We are still a shit team

He got sacked, as do most football managers, because of fan pressure after a run of bad results.

Robbo has admitted he’d ‘lost his way’ over his last four months here.

He was going nuts during the first half at the ref going backwards and forwards in the directors box and when chucks got taken out before half time totally lost the plot, total passion

So was Winkie going mad with passion when Chuks was taken out as he realises that we will have to see him in January, he clearly needs to play at a higher level. So not Winkie out but Chuks will go out in January. We will then be in the mire
