The team spirit does seem better as well - didn’t Robins allude to something being up with the squad earlier this season but it was now resolved?

I think it was related to players being sold/not being sold/wanting to be sold.

I don't think it is a coincidence that the ITK posters have disappeared into the ether.

I get it, you do get a lot of stick (which you bring on yourself). But at least resist the urge to be smug when we are shit. It’s not healthy.
Tbf, he’s consistent…

Delusional nonsense that we are top 6 material isn’t at all helpful - we aren’t and that’s it.

We need to dig out results and not crow we are a great football team. This season is about survival and that’s it - Paxman thinks we are one of the best teams and that guy thinks we are the best midfield i the league

You have to challenge nonsense and if we have to lose Gyokeres in January it’s really a long hard season ahead

Can I just bump this and reiterate that our squad depth is absolute garbage - days like today show that. We still have to get through January too.

Need at least three additions plus any replacements in Jan and I can’t see that happening. Maybe a couple of loans if were lucky then Vik and O’Hare gone on deadline day for us to spend in the summer.

I agree.

At one point yesterday we were 16th.

We aren't going to get relegated, thankfully worse teams than us.

Yes, we're bottom 3 but there's a lot of factors in play here.
Until yesterday we'd been on a decent run after a poor start. We'd stopped conceding so easily and were 6th or 7th in the form table.

Yesterday was garbage, but it transpires there's been a bug in the camp and we could only play Vik for 20 minutes.
Defensively we were poor, hopefully we go back to what worked so well against Cardiff, Stoke nd Sheff utd.

When you have Rotherham followed by Blackpool at home, im sure robins was hoping for 6pts, minimum 4pts, but to get just the 1 an

Yep, we could quite easily have won it too. (no idea how but the chances we had too).

I'm not overly concerned yet.

I doubt he was expecting to get 9 points from Cardiff and Stoke away and Sheff Utd (2nd in the league at the time iirc) at home.

I agree that we won't be relegated, but two of the worst team's are supposidly Rotherham and Blackpool, how did that go? I think most people were expecting 6 points. We ended up with a lucky 1.

You have to discount yesterday though due to the circumstances.

We aren’t going down.

As things stand it’s entirely fair to say we have a very strong front 5, capable of competing with most, if not all, in this league.

Quite significantly, they haven’t played together once yet. One has been injured until two games ago, one has been suspended twice and one isn’t yet match fit.

Our defence clearly has weaknesses and out wing backs are definitely going to hold us back, but not enough to mean we’re relegated.

Lose Gyokeres and/or COH and things look harder for the second half of the season, but we’ve played without COH and won (albeit ugly) and if Gyokeres goes we’d have to replace.

That MR Out narrative ready to be pushed?
