    Maybe Lawrie asked Lawrie if he wanted a coach and he said no?

    Nah Dimi can actually play the game however we do have a player on his 28th club in the A league who would not look out of place on the bench for Valentine.

    Not atm. He is negatively effecting the team IMO. We need to take the risk and see how we go without him

    I would have Dimi on the bench also this weekend or at the very least off corner duty for the rest of his career.

    The player manager Carl Robinson is associated with [David Baldwin] represents Dimi and Fitzgerald, Shepherd, Langlois, Kosta Petratos, and Makis Petratos.

    The real worry though is that Baldwin also represents Bernie Ibini who is without a club after Jeonbuk [K-League] let him go and the club he'd been transferred to Esteghlal [Persian Golf Pro League] rejected him as he failed a medical.

    Ibini also played under Robinson / Baldwin at Vancouver.

    I'd laugh if Ibini was one of the players Ernie was offered but rejected. Who knows - it may have even cost Ernie his job.

    Doesn't concern me anymore as I no longer support the Jets. I'm just here for the laughs. The club is dead to me otherwise.

    To be fair to Ibini, that medical rejection sounds like a load of nonsense. He failed because of a knee operation, or similar, that he had 3 or 4 years ago and has played for several clubs since. I would take Ibini at the club in a heartbeat, he is miles better than the type of player I've been expecting us to sign. I find him extremely overrated but even the level I rate him at is higher than the players I'd imagine we're looking at otherwise.

    I have my reservations about Robinson based on the agency links you mentioned weeks ago, and again today. Examples like how he dropped his certified starting goalkeeper in 2017 the week after he changed agents, it isn't a good look. Robinson was tied in with a big old mess at Vancouver, and I can't help but draw the conclusion that he was heavily involved. If we are throwing all our eggs into the one agency basket, which giving Carl a 3.5 year deal seems to say we are, I'm hoping it goes the way of the current EPL Wolves rather than back to our old conexxion days.
    OK

    Is anyone asking questions on Twitter to Lawrie about appointing Robinson based on his past efforts and controversies in the MLS ?

    The coaching saga has dragged on for too long. How long does it take to pick a coach?

    The club strung this out unnecessarily and still made a terrible decision.
