[cc84cov]

Robins is watching and waiting to pounce

More like trying to nick promotion with 1-0’s mate

 

---

[PVA]

I would go Max for Godden and O'Hare for Shipley.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Relax it's still early

It might be in Canada

 

[CovUpNorth]

That’s more like it, good effort by Godden

 

[cc84cov]

Any chance of some subs robins pal

 

[Grendel]

Depends on the formation, his strength is link play and with two attacking midfielders behind him, it would play to his strengths.

Plus, let’s be honest bar one impressive turn and shot Godden has done nothing at all. You can’t carry your striker when only playing on up there.

He’s not going to ever be good enough for that - we don’t have any forwards he can do that - we have been saved this season by Westbrook whose exceeded al expectations Walsh whose a cut above this level and Shipley goals and assists - we should be out of sight here but are hanging on

Just Bacon egg & beering the 2nd half

 

[CovUpNorth]

Great block by McFadzean

 

[CovUpNorth]

Robins is watching and waiting to pounce

This is when he shows his failings for making positive changes.

 

[Johnnythespider]

What's the point of having a bench like ours and not using it

 

[cc84cov]

What's the point of having a bench like ours and not using it

He’s too stubborn

Think Birmingham own it mate

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Does anyone else remember MR saying last week how he had the opportunity to change things and chose not to and had to learn from that?

Nice to see he's really taken that lesson to heart.

 

[CovUpNorth]

Negative passing again, going backwards, Westbrook this time.

 

[Johnnythespider]

McCallums legs have gone

He’s learnt nothing, he’s always been this way.

 

[CanadianCCFC]

Sounds like things aren’t great, then all of a sudden we get a chance

 

[Johhny Blue]

This should ne a whole thread. So many tactical options compared to the old days when you had one sub for emergencies who often ended up out of position

Those are standalone points, that aren’t linked and miles away from my initial point re bringing on Biamou.

It’s a good debate to have, but not in the middle of a match.

I 100% agree we shouldn’t be holding on. This is where MR massively let’s himself down, it’s crying out for a change and he won’t do it. Godden is isolated, and Westbrooke and Shipley have barely touched the ball the last 10.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

82 minutes, we are 1-0 in front, will we fcuk this up AGAIN?

 

[CovUpNorth]

He’s too stubborn

Or stupid

 

[jordan210]

Make changes.

 

[Johhny Blue]

82 minutes, we are 1-0 in front, will we fcuk this up AGAIN?

No. We'll win 3-0

 

[glasgowfan]

Why is it that those demanding 2 up front, or complaining about Robins' substitute policy are not managers themselves?

 

[Nick]

Biamou coming on

 

[Grendel]

Godden actually has looked better the longer the game has gone on

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Subs coming on it looks like. Godden done a sterling around

 

[Grendel]

Why is it that those demanding 2 up front, or complaining about Robins' substitute policy are not managers themselves?

Well I guess that means you couldn’t criticise Russel Slade either

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Godden actually has looked better the longer the game has gone on

Can’t shoot though

 

[ccfc92]

87 mins and not one sub...

 

[CovUpNorth]

Finally !!!

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Change happening. Second striker on for Shipley.

 

[Gazolba]

Very strange starting line up from us. I wonder if Biamou was carrying a knock.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

He’s too stubborn

He’s so conservative

Just need to be patient, 87th minute is the time for changes.
