At least robins is owning it

What's he saying?

[Domo]

robins said that he set the team up wrong

 

[fernandopartridge]

If we want to be more aggressive, play Kelly FFS. If there is one thing he's good at is being aggressive.

Robins on sky

Saying he set the team up wrong.

He is saying we should have been more aggressive.

Don't get it

 

[stupot07]

Can we now put to bed that O'Hare and Palmer can play in the box together.

Doesn’t explain why though. Why do you think we don’t play the same XI each week?

Either something in training that we don't see, or Robins is trying to be too clever in his selections.

@PVA now has PTSD

 

[SkyblueDad]

A really big concern is we have no leader on the pitch whatsoever.

MvE well off the boil.
Torp’s almost consistent piss poor delivery is being ignored.
COH is gone.
Poor January.

More rubbish

He was forced to by the red cards but swapping Collins for Wilson has done nothing to stem the tide

colllins is ill and neither of the goals were down to the keeper

 

[Macca]

Which players made the difference in our resurgence? Callum, Sheaf, Bidwell, Kitching, Saka. 4 absent in body tonight and 1 in mind. There it is

 

[Nick]

Has Collins been ill for weeks?

I’m sure the experts told us that Robins signed them to be played together. Hang on, they also rate Dasilva.

Bidwell and kitching on the bench...

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Robins saying

Key injuries.
Not aggressive
Didn’t play well in 1st half.
2nd half more aggressive.
We kept missing the targets. Too rash.
Not enough time on clock after we scored.
We weren’t clinical.
We were sitting back with 5.
Didn’t play through our attacking midfielders.
2 poor goals.
If we can play like we did in 2nd half we’ve got a chance. Teams are getting away from us. Games running out.

Basically he admits the season is over.

 

[Nick]

He keeps saying about being aggressive.

We were 2-1 down with 5 at the back FFS.

I think there are 3 options:

1. He knows more about the players and their fitness than we do
2. He's incompetent and has been winging it for years
3. He's doing it to annoy us

My money is on 1.

We scored on 73
He chose to keep us 5 at the back

 

[shmmeee]

Either something in training that we don't see, or Robins is trying to be too clever in his selections.

Or the thing he says every week isn’t a cunning ruse and is actually true and we have a small tired squad.

 

[Offhegoes]

We were flying and robins tinkers

Stop tinkering

Collins
Milan
Thomas
Kitching
Bidwell

100%agree.
We have players who can play in a 3 to cover for Sakamoto.
He went back to the WB system at Sheff Weds in the cup and we were shit, and toothless. Same tonight.

No

 

[fatso]

Neither were Wilsons fault

He was woefully out of position on both shots.
The defending was very poor and the shots were enough to challenge any keeper, but his positioning was piss poor on both occasions.

Bold choice. I’m afraid the market says it’s 2 or 3 though.

 

[SBT]

All things being equal I think you’d rather have started Bidwell, Kitching and Wright in tonight’s game rather than on Monday night, but apparently it was imperative that we play full strength against Maidstone no matter what.

 

[AiS86]

He keeps saying about being aggressive.

We were 2-1 down with 5 at the back FFS.

How are they related? We were aggresive when it was 2-1, he's saying we weren't agressive earlier in the game

 

[Domo]

We scored on 73
He chose to keep us 5 at the back

but then sends up wilson for a corner.

 

[PVA]

@PVA now has PTSD

And you're having a few celebratory beers after another defeat

Don't get it

Tell Oggy he’s still defending him

 

[Nick]

Yeah I bet kitching is exhausted.

Can't keep moaning about being tired when he could have brought the kids on against Maidstone but didn't.

He didn't need to bring ohare on and other first teamers.

The actions don't match the words.

That's twice Robins has dropped a player after they have scored a couple of goals in a match. Poor performance and team selection. Play off chances are over.

 

[AiS86]

The defending was very poor and the shots were enough to challenge any keeper, but his positioning was piss poor on both occasions.

Where should he be positioned for the second one with a cross coming from the left?

 

[jay2015]

Whats up with Robins and Goddon sims look like he never score tonight

 

[shmmeee]

Yeah I bet kitching is exhausted.

Can't keep moaning about being tired when he could have brought the kids on against Maidstone but didn't.

Just lying to us then the big liar. Stupid too no doubt.

Da Silva is crap

 

[Tommo1993]

Please point out what is rubbish about it. For once, try and back up your sky blue tinted delusional nonsense

 

[fatso]

You are talking bollox as usual both goals were down to intial poor defending from Cillins

Did you even see the goals?
I often wonder what game you've been watching.

Our defending was shocking, but Wilson was in no position to react to either effort.
