Boss to lay down law, says defender.

COVENTRY defender Jordan Willis has warned that new gaffer Mark Robins will pull no punches with slackers at the Ricoh Arena.

Robins, 42, rejoined the Sky Blues on Monday, four years after leaving the club to become manager of Huddersfield.

But while the team he left lay safely in mid-table, the one he inherits was 13 points adrift of safety at the foot of League One heading into the weekend, all but doomed to relegation.

Yet Robins – who replaces the sacked Russell Slade – has told his young side that they can achieve the impossible, especially with six of their next eight games at home.

Firm

And Willis, an 18-year-old scholar during Robins’ first stint, says that a squad recently described as “mentally weak” by Sky Blues legend Gary McSheffrey will get no sympathy from the former Man United striker.

“I was a first year pro last time Mark was here,” said Willis, Coventry’s club captain prior to the January arrival of veteran centre-half Nathan Clarke.
