Anyone that wants Robin's sacked should delete their fucking account.
I can't believe some of our fans are actually this thick...

Dumb fuck? Jog on you c**t.
Your post implies that you want him gone, which would also explain why you got so defensive then.
The phone in, and facebook groups have been full of people saying 'Robins Out'. Not that you probably know what Facbook is, or actually own a radio.
No doubt you'll be asking for Slade back next.

It's just a bit rich that those who have defended the root cause (Sisu) for years are pricisely the same ones who agressively go after the poor schmucks who end up managing their basket case of a club.

Hahaha you dont know me from Adam. Look i apologise for swearing its bang out of order. Just frustrations after a few just got to my head.
I am a big MR fan.But since our last lucky home win vs Crewe at home end of September.
Its just plainly not good enough. I can actually handle it if we play well and lose like at Cambridge. I clapped players off that game.
We have been on the slippery slope down hill since then.
I just dont think SISU will put up with three consecutive futile months in league two.
While i sit and type this in Morecambe i truly thought i wouldn't be coming here ever again.

Mowbray got worse over time to the point he had no idea what he was doing. The problem here seems to be quite obvious-most of our players couldn't hit a cow's backside with a banjo from 3 yards. If a clinical striker isn't found in January nothing substantial will change.

Only Luton and Mansfield have a bigger budget.
Notts county relying on loans.
Mansfield and Stevenage managers last few weeks have just said we blew them out the water on wages on a few players....

To be fair, 2 league wins in 10 isn't good enough. We can't just give him a pass on everything because of the off field crap.
We have been unlucky with injuries, I'm on the fence at the moment for this reason. The only thing I'd say is that if we are going to change manager let's do it prior to the January window so at least he has the chance to bring in some of his own men. Something has to change one way or another or we'll be stuck in this league.

I saw all 34 top flight seasons. By 1976 our bubble had well and truly burst and 37k attendances were anything but the norm. I certainly don’t accept the dross we are served up at the moment. With good owners we have the potential to do at least as well as say Leicester or Southampton. Saying that Robins should stay is not an acceptance of this situation. It is a recognition that this club cannot keep doing the same thing again and again and again and expect a different result. Robins has as much chance as any of the managers we had in the past or we might have if we sack him of reversing the trend. As I said above, at some stage we have to give a manager time to build, Robins has shown enough in his two spells here plus in his time at Rotherham and Barnsley to suggest that it might as well be him.

It's a difficult one. I agree that you have to give the right manager time to build, the problem is if you give the wrong manager time it could make the situation worse. Which category Robins falls into I don't know.

Personally I think we give him a few more months and let's see what he does on January. 2 ACLs to our best players is an absolute joke.

Yeah, that's pretty bad luck. That said, failings in finding a goalscorer has cost more, along with defensive tactics.

Honest Tim said we had a top eight budget. Now I know the truth and Tim are not comfortable bed fellows but I would have thought he would try and put forward the most positive scenario he could. Therefore the budget is more likely to be eighth downwards rather than upwards. Robins has been ahead of his financial bench mark for most of the season.
The statement “Sisu have backed him big time” I think needs to be challenged. What evidence have you to back this up? Robin’s said at the recent forum that no fee had been paid for any player this summer, that he wanted to go for James Collins but couldn’t compete with Luton. We have had 4K season ticket holders who invested their hard earned cash in the club while Sisu continue with their NOPM policy. Remember the funds from Wembley and the sales of Thomas and Harries. Was he given any or all of this? I cannot see how they have done more than give him the freedom to use what ever budget he had.

Have we really missed that many clear cut chances? I don't think we've been creating them have we? Arguably even more worrying. But then andreu and jones were our most creative players or most likely to create chances anyway.

There’s nothing wrong with the personnel. Clearly got the foundation of a team good enough to win promotion from this league. However, there are some glaringly obvious tactical flaws in this team because we keep getting undone by the same kind of teams. That comes from the management I’m afraid. Even in Robins’ first spell, we struggled to put together winning streaks and this season we’ve failed to build any sort of momentum thus far. Moreover, the complete failure against teams we should be winning - like today, Yeovil and FGR - is irritating me now.
Id rather ya be beating the teams we “should” be beating, and losing the games against the likes of Luton, Notts County, Exeter and Lincoln because then we’d know our team just isn’t good enough. The reverse is happening and it shouldn’t be.
Robins needs to address this or it’ll cost him his job.

When we had McGoldrick people thought MR was the messiah. Now that Jones is injured people think that MR is to blame.
Sooner or later our fans will work out that the performances are down to player quality, and the manager has very little effect.
It’s been obvious to most of us that the problems lie with our so called strikers. But some people on here try to defend the indefensible when it comes to McNulty and Biamou.

I do not advocate getting rid of Robins but that is not to endorse his management.
He needs to address the set up of the team and how we meet the demands of this league. We are now a long way in to the season and we still have one way of playing and if that isn't working it's defeat and on to the next game.
You can't blame him for injuries, you can't blame him for mistakes on the pitch but the buck stops with him for how we are set up.
We are where some big clubs have been from Wolves to Portsmouth to Crystal Palace to Swansea and Hull to Sheffield United to Burnley, we are not unique and a game played in 1975 has no bearing on a game in 2017, we have no devine right to win games.
Big games we win, games where we go in as favorites we are out fought and that is because tactically we are poor. That is down to MR.
I wish that changing the manager was the answer but history that is relevant has shown that is not the solution for us but just an ever decreasing circle.

Which ones stand out for you?
I don’t buy into Robins getting the tick tack but it has been an anti climax this season.
Thought we would be a lot better than this. Some of the signings have been horrors and if they could be let in go in January I’m sure Robins would be he can’t as there is no one stupid enough to take them on.
Brace for a second season in this god awful league. Any signings in the summer need to be a lot better.
I wouldn’t pin your hat on any January loan signings caring enough to put a shift in. Excluding Armstrong and a couple of others most are in it for them self’s and don’t want to be here in the fourth division.

Remarkably we're still in the playoffs...it's hard to believe how badly we do against the lower teams and raise our game against the top runners. Do we get complacent or what? I'll be at the Cheltenham game on Sat and expect a much improved performance after this umpteenth wake up call. But the attendance will probably be the worst of the season and confidence will be low, so who knows. What I don't get most is how this just seems to be something we do, no matter which division or who the manager is or who the players are. We all long for the big turn around where we can string together a succession of wins, or even good performances. Heyho....but sacking MR isn't the answer!
