Robinson declared that he is unmoved as a new vacancy opened up at Pittodrie after Aberdeen, who are two spots above Robinson’s 10th-placed Buddies in the League table, sacked manager Jimmy Thelin on Sunday.
Instead, the seven-times-capped former international’s full focus is on steering St Mirren away from the relegation places as they face a crunch trip to bottom side Livingston on Tuesday.
“It doesn’t turn my head. I’ve been linked with every job in Scotland, England, Ireland,” Robinson stated.
“I’ve been in the game a long, long time now, so you just get used to getting linked with stuff.
“I’ve got a big enough job to concentrate on Tuesday night than concentrating on anybody else, and what you also have to remember is somebody’s lost their job, which is horrible.
“It’s a horrible industry. It’s certainly not for me to talk about anybody else’s job.
“At the minute, we’re in a relegation battle. If we win our two games in hand, you’re on the verge of the top six again and that’s how tight this League is.”
St Mirren manager Stephen Robinson celebrates winning the Scottish League Cup
Robinson was the toast of Paisley in December after St Mirren stunned Celtic 3-1 to win the Scottish League Cup courtesy of a Marcus Fraser goal and a Jonah Ayunga brace.
However, his full focus is now on the League and, amid the icy conditions across the UK and Ireland, admitted his players were unable to train ahead of the clash with Livi.
But the former Oldham Athletic, Morecambe and Motherwell boss is refusing to use that as an excuse for his players not to perform in West Lothian.
We didn’t train before we went to Aberdeen, if you remember the storm, and we were brilliant and won.
“We couldn’t train before the Motherwell game, we had no facility to train,” he admitted.
“The astroturf was completely frozen as well, which is a shame because the club have invested a lot of money into covers on the grass pitch, which we thought would work. It didn’t work at all for us, unfortunately.
“But that’s no excuse. We didn’t train before we went to Aberdeen, if you remember the storm, and we were brilliant and won. So, there’s no rhyme or reason sometimes in football.
“So, again, it’ll be very, very minimal what we’re able to do in terms of our preparation. But that’s not an excuse.
“We’re well-versed in what we’re good at and we need to get back to doing that again on Tuesday.”
