I fear that Stephen Robinson would be another manager who might be happy to play Taylor Curran. Wonder if he knows Power from his Luton days.
In fairness I don't really know very much about him. Can't get enthused about a manager appointed by Power in the current situation. |

Robinson was on a shortlist of 3 for the Donny job so must be fairly well thought of.
John McGreal’s odds have shortened considerably also. Wouldn’t mind him.

Yes I've just been reading about his time at Motherwell. Sounds much better than I first thought.

Cheers, just wondering why nobody has snapped him up over the past five months |

Bit on McGreal. I quite like the sound of him.
McGreal has a reputation for playing "attacking, free-flowing" football with a "fluid 4–2–3–1 system". He is able to work alongside a director of football or head of recruitment and work with and develop a young squad.
The negative. He signed Luke Norris - for money!

To be fair to Robinson he took Motherwell to 3rd place last season which is as high as they can possibly get
Being an unfortunate casual follower of jock ball, my memory is that he wasn't the sort of manager who took shit from anyone.
He doesn’t seem the sort who would accept being told who to pick, i.e Curran

Robinson lasted 6 months at Oldham before being sacked with them bottom of League 1, and was replaced by some bloke called John Sheridan.
No thanks.

So was Wellens tbf, i think we can all assume Sheridan gets jobs based on who he knows not if he is better or not. I wouldn't judge him on that awful Oldham jon |

Don't know anything about Robinson, but his most recent record at Motherwell seems pretty good.

He may be a decent appointment. Similarly, I don't know enough about his managerial career to offer an informed view.
By the way, I am a big fan of this thread.
