Again I commented because the original comment was he’s due sacked ……

i pointed out he’s not performing much worse than us…..

people’s option is out manager is progressive ( more than happy if that’s ur feeling ) 

my comparison is results 

don’t understand how that’s a struggle why I’ve commented on the comparison regardless of thoughts managers 

win games - keep job

lose games - lose job 

Why comment on the Aberdeen manager's future if your only interest is Motherwell? Unless it was the current Motherwell manager you wanted to comment on, of course.

I had the pleasure of meeting up with Stevie Kirk and his good lady at a local supermarket yesterday. They're in rude health and we had a long chat.

Sounds like Robinson is on the brink of being sacked by Aberdeen.

Personally would take him back here if/when we part company with AJ. He had ran his course by the time he left us but when he initially came in he made us competitive and oversaw two cup runs and a(n albeit default) 3rd place finish. Plus he has improved as a manager now and he wouldn’t have Burrows whispering “we’re only a wee team punching way above our weight” in his ear every other day this time around.

Stephen Robinson was great for Motherwell at the time and I will always be grateful to him for the 2 Cup Finals and making us feel relevant again in Scottish Football.

But the game in this country is moving on. His football/tactics are limited and no longer align with the club philosophy/identity.

I think its a shame its not working out for him at Aberdeen, but not a surprise. We would be mental to consider having him back if it ever got to the stage Alfreds job is under threat (which it isnt).

I’m never happy to see anyone lose their job but I can always modify that rule for a huge ego’d. narky wee twat who spat the dummy out on so many occasions at every club he’s been at and had to be pulled away (by Craigan) at our last game v Aberdeen as he was hurling abuse at the main stand… ok he got a bit that night… but it shows his mental state that he’s unable to control his anger (Wetherspoons Edinburgh being another example of anger issues)

he did well at st Mirren albeit watching that team was eye bleeding and he did ok for us for a period (and got a bit lucky when he HAD to play young players…. When he didn’t want to) until it all past its shelf life but I really do not see him getting another bigger gig up here….. he might get a league 2 or 3 gig down south but he failed down there at that level too.

hes not someone I’d be sad to see drift out the game

When Robinson left us, he openly admitted he had no idea how to turn things around. When he left St Mirren he had no idea how to turn around their slide. He has no idea how turn around Aberdeen's slide.

The game and the players have moved on. He has not.

Then you’d honestly be wrong.

He did well overall with us but stayed on a season too long and he did even better at St.Mirren. Aberdeen is a thankless task because their support won’t tolerate anything less than challenging for trophies every single year. Since McInnes left there they have had six permanent managers who haven’t got them anywhere near the levels of consistency they had under him.
