According to STV, Robinson has managed his last game for Eburdeen and a statement is expected as early as today. Cue another foreign coach and another squad rebuild? I wish Robinson well but who would want to work under Cormack?
 
The sheep are skint. I doubt they could afford the type of manager their fans, still misty eyed about the Fergie days, demand
 
The final straw would have been losing 4-0 at home to the bottom of the league team who hadn't won in their last eight league games.
Robinson is a good manager of small clubs with low expectations.
I thought he was bit out his depth at Aberdeen, as was Jim Goodwin who, like Robinson, seems better suited to managing smaller clubs with lower expectations.

Having said all that, John McGlynn would have to be the favourite to take over, with maybe Neil Lennon as the other likely manager in the frame

McGlynn would be mental to leave Falkirk.
Pretty sure Lennon wouldn't make it to the end of the season there.

Is John McGlynn not the epitome of a manager who is good at small clubs with smaller expectations?
 
Any manager who is currently in a decent job, where he is well respected and appreciated, would be off their fucking heads to even entertain the idea of going to that basket case of a club. They will only get someone either out of work or currently working in the lower divisions.

I was snooping about an AFC facebook page and one of the names being thrown around (and they were being serious) was John Hughes…….make of that what you will

Apparently Gary Caldwell is on their shortlist.

I’d say so. If anything, Robinson was far more successful at St Mirren than McGlynn has been at Falkirk in terms of league finishes and winning a trophy.
 
Reports from sheep i know say Pressley is the man they're looking at to replace Robinson?

I think JMcG is a decent manager and the Bairns his level.
 
spare a thought for Robinson who is doubtless all shook up.
Probably holed up in a heartbreak hotel!
