White smoke is blasting out of the John Smiths Stadium with the news Mark Robins is our new manager.

So after a pretty decent playing career starting with the guidance of Sir Alex he has done a pretty decent job as manager. He did well at Rotherham under difficult circumstances, saved Barnsley from the drop to League One and this season has turned Coventry City's season around and they are clearly annoyed.
In the recent BBC article on performance of all managers this season he came 16th out of 122 managers. This put him ahead of some very decent managers such as David Moyes, Arsene Wenger and Paulo Di Canio.

So now its official are you happy about the decision and where do you think we will end up this season?
Robins is our Valentine

The next three league matches could manufactere nine points, that could leave Town just outside a playoff place. With that kind of momentum and a few more wins, the season could finish a real high. UTT!
