Robins said in his last post match that "they're really good players"

So the reason we are shite is....

He doesn't know how to get the best out of these players.

I'd leave Wright out of the squad altogether, he's non league standard at best.
We could do worse than give one of the young strikers a run out.

What an idiotic comment.

 

[Johhny Blue]

I’d take a draw

Because players have come from different countries or something. So it means they’re allowed to be shit.

 

[fatso]

He's scored goals before he isn't an unknown.

Not at this level.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Generic near post corner unmarked for starters

Great delivery
Good run
Not marked and no one on the post
They missed many more

 

[Martin180]

Back four on Saturday ?

 

[skyblu3sk]

Not at this level.

At any level vs non

 

[duffer]

Stadium evacuated {insert own joke about how can you tell the difference here}

Bring 11 players back to defend and still leave a man free to slot it home.

 

[Fysnkysc]

Anyone defends this season is embarrassing, we're fucjing shit we needed a midfielder and we went and spent 5m on a defender who don't play, we should have got styles over kitchen. And tbh I would of been happy with either Wright or simms not both because we will start playing with 1 striker soon enough.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Godden has been the worst of the three for a few games now.

Godden has touched the ball which automatically makes him better than Wright.

 

[BlueSkiesForever]

Clearly still not working, anyone fancy a formation change yet?

 

[Governmac]

Monday mate.

 

[CCFCSteve]

Eccles wasn’t close to the worst player there today BTW.

He was tidy enough. My concern is defensively. Robins can’t keep chopping and changing as there’s no consistency/learning to play as a unit

 

[fatso]

What an idiotic comment.

Ffs, are you serious, you can't seriously rate him!!!!

He wasn't the only poor player, so I'm not blaming him for the defeat. But he is a poor player at this level.

 

[Johnnythespider]

I think we've become so used to Gyokeres or Hamer dragging us through games we've forgotten that there's no one else to do it, the players all look like they are waiting for someone else to do something special and there's no one, on the bright side O'Hare and Sakamoto looked lively when they came on and I'd play them at the top of the box with one upfront.

 

[Ashdown]

So


Wright did far more in 20 mins than Godden in 75.

What did he do

 

[Martin180]

Monday mate.

Ffs

It’s a soft goal

 

[LastGarrison]

Has anyone thought that the team might just need sometime to gel?

We shouldn't have bought Wright on the evidence so far, but hopefully we won't be still be saying that in a years time.

Not really, Wilson made amazing saves.

They scored 2.

They got 3 points.

He’s got no idea what his best combination is at either end, and is missing two of his star players in the middle, only one of which still plays for us.

And Grendel doesn’t like the wingbacks.

 

[Flying Fokker]

Club in crisis I’m afraid, the spirit has gone

Are you for real , he’s absolute shite you fool

No, not so. Just poor performances on the pitch.

 

[ms639]

We made a very vey intentional decision at the end of the season to sign ‘prospects’ on long term deals instead of using the loan market.

I don’t think the goal was ever to be a promotion competing side in years 1 and 2. The problem is it’s backfiring so spectacularly we might be fighting for league 1 promotion instead.

We went 4 at the back and conceded a pathetic second goal you

Moved faster than my Nan for a start.

We should really have scored tonight , our XG was higher we created better chances .. We are badly letting ourselves down in many areas but especially infront of goal

 

[TomRad85]

Robins will clearly be under pressure if this continues. He's spent a lot of money and this is utter shite. I wouldn't be keen on chucking money at him in January if I'm Doug King right now.

I agree with the first part, but why do you say it's backfiring? Surely we have to wait until at least half way through the season.

 

[Boicey]

We are so poor all over the pitch. Very few goals or threat in the team and always a mistake waiting to happen at the back.
Allen may firm midfield up a bit until he gets injured. Palmer will be given another chance but will be Palmer. It's all on COH to make something happen.
Robin's has made a huge mistake with his summer signings. Doug will be a very trusting man to give him another large wedge to spend in January

 

[Matt smith]

Thanks for incredible memories mark

if something doesn’t change in the next 3 games I’d look at making a change

 

[wingy]

Of those who started only Wilson can be pleased with his performance

Not sure on the long range one tbf

 

[hamertime]

He always makes the wrong subs. The game was crying out for Sakamoto but the changes are always wrong and too late. No desire to win in the team, soft as shit.
