Robins sacking 'a poor decision' - Steve Ogrizovic
Former goalkeeper Steve Ogrizovic thinks Robins should have been given more time

Former Coventry City goalkeeper Steve Ogrizovic says the sacking of manager Mark Robins is a "poor decision".
Ogrizovic, 67, made more than 500 appearances for the Sky Blues and now works as a pundit for ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ CWR.
"Very few things in football shock me but this is a poor decision," said Ogrizovic.
"It's not a knee-jerk decision because I think this is planned and (owner) Doug King has got a plan in the back of his mind, although what that is I don't know."
Coventry had won their previous two Championship matches before Wednesday's 2-1 home defeat by Derby, which proved to be Robins' last game in charge.
"Mark Robins had more to give, look at the club since the day he came in and it's been year-on-year success and progression," added Ogrizovic.
"The sun has been shining on Coventry and they got back into the Championship and along the way there were some great memories for people.
"The stadium is full now and it wasn't when Mark Robins first came to the club."
