exactly my point, we want the team to succeed, but we are villainized when we'e pissed of with shit performances. I'm not sure hat he expects. Serve up shit like we have the last few weeks and still expect everyone to be buzzing. Maybe this cocaone stuff all the kids are taking should be shoved up our nose on arrival.

It’s self defeating though. You booing makes them less likely to play well. So why do it? Especially after just one or two games. If we’d been shit all season then fair enough but losing to Norwich, really?

Come on here and moan all you want, but during the game surely you want them to be their best?

I’ll admit I once shouted loudly at Jamie Allen against Swansea when he lost the ball again, but I’ve never booed my own team. It’s like keying your own car. Certainly at half time. Players know when a game isn’t going well, no player in the history of football has done an after match interview and gone “yeah the boos really brought the best out of us”. It’s just childish acting out.

Robins:
- They sat behind the ball, tried to make it difficult
- Praised their player (missed who)
- Kicking Vik all over and trying to take his shirt
- Didn’t make a good deal of chances first half, they had nothing really
- We got after them and made it difficult for them to play forward
- Ended up winning the ball wide, Hamer showed quality to stick it in the net brought them out
- Brilliant goal for the second, might be the first time Kasey has ever headed the ball
- Brilliant win, been a bit negativity around and that’s not how it’s been. When it’s difficult we need supporters more. Need them vocal. When they get that players will grow, when they don’t the shrink that’s how people are. When it’s difficult we need them (the fans) it’s imperative we’ve got some young players who need that support not just from me but from the standa
- Mich needed win today and gets us back on track and on an even keel
- Was impressed with everybody but specifically about McNally was really strong and didn’t miss a header. Used to playing in a back four which showed at times but majority of things he did everything really well.
- They stayed in shape, it was a bit laboured. When we upped the tempo second half there was only going to be one winner.
- Godden Eccles and Maguire coming on for some game time was the icing on the cake. Maguire needs to do a bit more to get on the pitch same as Wilson Esbrand
- Impossible to improve without selling someone. You can’t keep everyone together and build.

Couldn’t hear for a bit cos was being spoken too 😠

I’ve said before the infrastructure is imperative because you can’t bring better players into an environment that hasn’t had anything spent on it. And that might have to be the first thing you see. Got to be incremental, or the wheels come off. Supporters need to be patient but know that it’s in good hands and it’s moving forward. Dean Austin come in and I’ve had to work with him which I’m not used to doing but once that gets off the ground (missed a bit)
Doug is good, gonna drive things. That’s what we want.

Just watched it on YouTube (and kudos for capturing it pretty much word for word!) and it was Rudoni he spoke about.

'Rudoni I thought was really good for them today. He showed some really good skill, pace, understanding of the game, his position and yeah looked like a decent player.'

If that's not a come a play for me, I don't know what is!

of course i don't boo, you daft twat, i just find it odd that we're expected to be at 100% every week when the players clearly aren't. Awful analogy, it's nothing like keying your own car, its my responsibly to look after that car and make sure it performs, that's not our jobs as football fans, that job is the managers.

I will say that he was very good first half at Burnley aswell which nobody seemes to remember 😂
I'm just not entirely sure it was a signing that we needed , he may get better and better who knows
Click to expand...

I didn't think we needed him either, but I think the fact Robins took the chance to sign him when we had Dabo, Eccles, Burroughs and Kane shows he obviously really rates him (or thinks those 4 are dogshit I guess!)

Goodnight all. Curry and wine demolished and i'm done actually trying to talk sense for once. Back to made up rumours and other general skulduggery from now on. It's amazing how 3 points can change your view on life.

Playoffs is a pipe dream. May only be 4 points but there’s also 7 teams we’d have to overturn.

Surely it's worth a go? You only live once. On my death bed I won't be saying I remember that season we decided not to go after the play offs when 4 points behind in January. I am glad we settled for mid table and let the season fizzle out, because that was fun.

If it’s just a business and you don’t like it take your custom elsewhere. But for most of us it’s a bit more than that and we want the team to succeed so why wouldn’t we want to stop behaviour that makes that less likely?

What if the government used that as an excuse? Blaming criticism/lack of enthusiasm from the people as to why they're no performing well? Especially when that criticism is mild at best?

Fact is one set of people are paying to be there, the other are being paid. So which group should be responsible for motivating the other?

Robins has an issue taking accountability and it's annoying. We've been shit for ages, what does he expect? We lost to a non-league team and have been shite in the league. The fans haven't turned on the team and it's a mutual relationship between the fans and the players. They play better, the crowd get off their seats. Vice versa.

I'm just hoping today is a turning point, cause we've been needing it.

Record breaking season ticket sales despite the economy having gone to pot, strong away followings despite a terrible opening few months too. I would say that is all the backing a manager can ask for from his fans. Yes there will always be a few grumbling in the crowd, losing in the Cup to Conference crap, poor form and up until this week a barebones squad being left to fend for itself tends to do that.

He should be grumbling himself at his former boss for having held the club back for years.

I'd like to see Gus as a 10. That would at least be the end of the 2 or 3 shot totals per game

Me too. Shame Kelly isn't going to step up as for me an ideal set up would be Sheaf/another deep midfielder with Hamer in behind Vik.

You can see with the goal today he has the attributes.

Nah. It’s very simple. Do you want them to do well or not during the game? If you do booing is fucking stupid.

Listen to the Robins clip before commenting. He acknowledges the players have to give the crowd a spark to get them going. He's asking people not to dig out the players, esp. as we have a lot of young players who will not be as consistent and may be vulnerable to negativity during a game. Feels like a fair point. If you have an issue with what he says, feels like you have an axe to grind with Robins, bias against him.

Why can't Eccles play next to Sheaf? He has the potential and needs the game time.

Confused by criticism of BNC. He was pretty good today. One point where they almost got in behind him but he got forward fairly well without creating anything brilliant. Much more solid performance than anything Dabo has created this season
