Bring Andy Thorn back.

Are in incapable of making changes ?

Why not bring on Reid or someone when we just scored to go for the win.

Because he never does, he is inept when it comes to changing games.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, someone actually texts into the radio asking for us to get Slade back.

I'm actually crying with laughter.

 

[clint van damme]

another idiot who thinks this is acceptable

no. he thinks it's unacceptable when pricks only turn up when the chips are down, I agree with him.

We were all over them after our goal. Total role reversal. Their winner was a Stokes error and an injustice. While it was 1-1 it was like watching the City of recent-ish times - pressing, building, prising away and looking dangerous.

The first half was marginally less bad than Accrington, mostly I suspect because Colchester aren't very good.

This reminds me of two years ago when it all just got thrown away and there seemed to be nothing anyone could do to stop it, nor much sense that anyone especially wanted to.

Absolutely gutted. Another few days ruined until the next match. Sick of this and want a change of upbringing so I could have supported another club.

PUSB - still proud to be a fan of the best team in the world

 

[gspotgaz]

That was just .... pathetic

We have absolutely no tactics. Vincenti and Shipley as wingers is conference standard stuff. Kelly continuously giving ball away yet again. We won’t get near the playoffs

 

[Sick Boy]

Bring Andy Thorn back.

We don't want to get relegated next season.

 

[Adge]

Now Haynes is getting ready

 

[oucho]

Is there anyone who still believes robins shouldn’t be sacked?

Over here.

Thought it doesn't help that a late goal for Wycombe looks like we're 9 points off the autos now.

 

[covmark]

Steady on....

Do you have any hope that we'll get anything from our next 3 games with this clown in charge?

Just glad I never got a Brighton ticket and decided to Manfield a miss.
Pissed off conned into getting a half season ticket for this bunch of shit, might take them to court for misrepresentation of entertainment.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Big shout out to the fans who turned out tonight. I feel bad in my front room - they must feel bad with a zero on the end of it by comparison. Need the footballing gods to smile on us and have an injury or two clear up Just play fit players against Brighton and get some of the wounded recovered before the next league game..

All the managers we have had in past few years have been the same.

Another late winner for them, how many is that now? Their manager isn't a fucking bottle job.

He shouldn’t be.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Bring Andy Thorn back.

 

[Dimi_Konstantflapalot]

First 45 was very poor, but we improved second half. The 2nd goal was so fucking sloppy. Free header, completely unmarked in the middle from the cross back in, such a simple finish. Where is the fucking concentration?! Stick to your men, clear your lines. It's not fucking hard. SO pissed off

 

[clint van damme]

the autos? You've got to be kidding. If we sneak into 7th I'll be fuckin' delighted.

 

[skybluetony176]

Robins it seems.

Shut up you flounce

Scary how many late goals they have got. Don’t leave early.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

I agree with that text get Kwame in the side:emoji_thinking:

 

[lifeskyblue]

Bitterly disappointed. Another season promises so much then drifts away. Why oh why does it happen year after year?
Robbins is an experienced manager he must have realised that the way he set the team up wasn’t going to win it. I can’t believe he hasn’t got the confidence in himself or the players to go out for a win.

Really really poor.

I can now understand why some fans just lose interest tbh. I’m a huge Cov fan but even I’m slowly losing interest, same old every season.

 

[The CableGuy]

Well......I guess that's another season of 4th-tier football then.
Every time I think "this is our season", we blow it. I'd love to be proven wrong but the wheels have fallen off, big time.

 

[CCFC54321]

We paid for a poor first 45 minutes. It’s not good enough having to play catch up.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

[no_loyalty]

He bottled it again, wanted the draw instead of throwing on pace while we were on top.

He needs to have a word with himself.

2 sub's on, 1 in the 90th minute, what's all that about?

that's about a manager who can see it going to shit but doesn't have a clue how to turn things round.

 

[Earlsdon-Loyal-Blue]

Very disappointing night, it's occasions like this that push fans ever further to the edge. Saturday is just a day out, we need to be back winning in the league as a priority. I don't want another year in this god forsaken league - panic button pressed!!!

 

[Evo1883]

IF this club thinks I’m going to put up with another 2-3 years of this until our inevitable decline into non league , they can fuck themselves .

The last few years have been bad enough but I have given it one last shot this year and if we finish mid table , I know the budget cut will come in the summer , I know how it’s going to go , the last 10 years have told me that .

Absolutely fucked off

 

[sw88]

Yes an indirect free kick IF the referee has deemed it as the player trying to con him. If the referee does see it as simulation he has to issue a yellow card. Perhaps he didn’t deem it as a cautionable offence?

Cheers Adge.

That kept me occupied wondering if I was right for all of a few minutes

 

[letsallsingtogether]

Because he never does, he is inept when it comes to changing games.

Funny thing is that is exactly what was said about our last 7 or 8 managers.
Especially after Xmas.
They all supposingly had a great budget but all spent very little loans and youth.
Shit and more shit.

 

[KersleyDigs]

Really showed that we had central players playing in all 4 wide positions today. Lack of delivery into the box from wide areas or any forward endeavour...

Stokes is a centre half at best, offers zero attacking threat as left back.
Willis is a centre half, struggles going forward.
Vincenti, well, I'm not sure he is even a footballer to be honest.
Shipley is a natural centre mid.

We desperately need to sign Baker if he is close to being fit and put him on one flank, Reid on the other and put Haynes at left back.....

 

[oucho]

Who who whoa sweet child of mine - we're only 3 points off the play-offs even after a poor run which is bound to end soon, there's 14 games to go, so a total of 42 points. 3 points more than the team in 7th over that time isn't much now we've got our bad patch out of the way,

 

[dadgad]

If Robins had had a go with the subs this would be easier to take but it’s the sorry lack of ambition typified by settling for a point when three were essential. Season over now, and our continued slide towards the conference....
