Managerial career - Rotherham United
Robins joined Rotherham United in June 2000 as a player and subsequently as assistant manager,[7] under manager Alan Knill. However, by the end of February 2007, the Millers sat 13 points adrift of safety, making the threat of relegation almost inevitable. This resulted in Knill being sacked on 1 March, with Robins becoming caretaker manager.[8] After a spell of three wins in six games while in charge as caretaker manager, and moving the club off the bottom of League One,[9] Robins' position was made permanent on 6 April 2007.[10] Robins gained much praise for his first 2 seasons with the Millers. The first saw Rotherham consistently in the automatic promotion places until a late dip in form, and the second almost brought promotion despite a 17 point deduction imposed by the Football League. Robins also attracted many high calibre players to the Don Valley Stadium, including League 2 player of the season Nicky Law and prolific goalscorer Adam le Fondre.
Barnsley
Robins was appointed as the new manager of Barnsley on 9 September 2009, succeeding Simon Davey. After his first game in charge, the Championship club sat at the bottom of the table looking likely candidates for relegation. By Christmas, Robins had taken them a full nine points clear of the relegation zone and on a run of eight games unbeaten. This was followed by a poor spell towards the end of the season, and Barnsley finished 18th in the table. Robins resigned from his job at the end of the 2010-11 season, because of differences with the board
as ive already pointed out before, i'd be 110% whoever comes in, even if robins
however, i think we can aim higher tbh
his record and the way its described sounds very much like dj's, dips in form and very inconsistent

As a manager you have to utilise what you've got.
Barnsley are skinter than skint so playing defensively/negatively was the only option. We are different biscuits all together. Barnsley were Rich Tea. We are double choc chip cookies.
