MK Dons manager Karl Robinson says he will discuss his future with chairman Pete Winkelman after accusing some of his players of being "weak" in the 3-0 home defeat against Southend.

The Dons are just one point and two places above the relegation zone after a seventh loss in 15 League One games.

"I have to be honest - it (me leaving) is what a lot of people want," Robinson told BBC Three Counties Radio.

"It's a decision for the chairman, not for me. I won't walk away."

Robinson, 36, was appointed MK Dons boss in May 2010 and guided them to promotion to the Championship when they finished second in League One in the 2014-15 season.

But since being relegated from the Championship last term, Robinson's side have won just four times in League One and have not recorded a home victory in 13 league games - a record that stretches back to March.

"I share everyone's frustrations, whether it be the chairman or the fans or my family. Everyone is in a low place," Robinson added.

"Certain players are too weak - mentally and physically too weak.

"It affects my life, but I don't think it affects certain players' lives. You have to be responsible for your own actions as well. It is not all about the players.

"Me and the chairman will have a chat on Sunday. If it is to be (leaving the club) then I want to say thank you for everyone who has supported me over the last six and a half years.

"It is a difficult place to be. It is one of the lowest points of my career and my life."
