    The more i hear from the new regime, the more i think Robbie was the first cog in the new box, and all players have been chosen by 2 guys who know what each other are looking for. Im sure as part of his consultation process and knowing RN, Asghar put him forward as head coach where Robbie has said from day one, someone is coming in above me. I think after the poor start that the new guys got their man in early!

    MK Dons manager saying he cant wait to see Sow back in first team regularly after injuries. Sounds like a non starter for us then?

    Unless he has heard what has been said about money being made available to Robbie and is trying to strengthen Dons' negotiating position.

    Never know

    Asghar seems to be confirming that Robbie will decide which of the targets the scouts etc identifies that he wants.

    I sincerely hope so, anything else is unacceptable.

    Could well be S71, if they new heid bummers identify talent in the states it could well be that they will bring them over to put them on display. Very similar to Mad Vlad and his Lithuanian project. Robbies job, as first team coach, would be to get the best out of the said player in a successful team as this is what reallly brings along the fitba scouts, and ultimately profit through sales. It’s a tried and trusted formula, but depends on how decent the conveyor belt of talent in the states.

    As an aside, most of the Universities/colleges in the states offer soccer scholarships on a much bigger and grander scale than any of the football academies in the UK, and if Mr O and his team can, or have got a foothold on this then we may be onto something! Time will tell though, just hope it gets us the phukk away from this division and makes us stronger in the future.

    Interesting (& good) points ahlltan

    The 'interference' as you describe it can be acceptable.

    My view is maybe a bit old fashioned.
