Oh for ffs ....get Ben Stevenson on....this is what this game needs .midfield at the moment are not bossing it

Not sure what help he will be. He had his chance Saturday and didn’t take it

Might as well throw Vincenti into the middle, and Ponticelli up top! Throw two more attacking players into the mix but continue to invite pressure on ourselves!

I'd do that or push Kelly right up

Get Ponti on. Biamou off. There can't be that much difference in ability can there, surely?

Also, Stokes and Kelly off. Beavon and Vincenti on. Change formation. Go 3-5-2. Or 1 -11. I don't care.

Losing to these at home is not acceptable.

I have been saying this since the start of the season - we are a winger light. I'd bring Devon on in that role second half.

As have I - I’ve been banging on about the importance of pace. Although I wouldn’t bring Devon on, I’d prefer to hope McNulty wakes us.

Serious questions need to be asked if we lose this. FGR are conceding nearly 3 a game.
Starting with, Mr Robins, having not scored for 2 games, why do you feel the need to play 6 at the back against shite like this?
He's not changed a fucking thing all season, just shifted his players around in his bullshit formation. You could land a fucking helicopter in the circle between our midfield and forwards.
Can't believe people are blaming the strikers again.

Awful first half. Only grimmer doing well. Doyle and Kelly playing more sideways passes than clingan did. Biamou not a league player...two free headers...no direction or power.

I think we all agree we need to change something, but does anyone have a feasible suggestion for what/who?

JP is the obvious one, but we play hoofball to Biamou so take him off and we have nobody to aim for.

We need creativity and/or pace - we have neither on the bench.

Poor half. We look dangerous when we actually get a cross in the box but we don't do it often enough. McNulty looks lost on the wing, biamou should have buried that header from McDonalds cross and le duck has been poor, not even doing the basics.

Awful by burge.

Playing three forwards with big gaps between each of them is just strange.

McNulty is a forward but is drifting wide. Biamou is just poor. Against a weak team do you really need Doyle and Kelly.

33 minutes before one shot at goal and no sustained activity until the last 10 minutes of the half.

It's a big 45 for Robins

Or Jones could periodically switch sides like Arjen Robben does.

As usual, they have a much better goal-keeper than us.

He needs to sort things out quickly otherwise it may be time to try someone different.

Beavon on. He moves the opposition around and opens gaps up

Footballing ability and tactic the masses won't appreciate unless he scores a goal.
