Wonderful reaction to see.
Demonstrated sprit in camp.
Interesting to see Dennis and Fabio together at end.

Nothing wrong with a bit of feist. I would rather have it than players collapsing and rolling over at the slightest mistake.
It's not the mistake it's how you recover from it that counts.

Im sure Kitching had Palmer and Tavares in a double headlock celebrating the winner
I think the fact we didn’t make him see out the season was a little odd. Maybe we couldn’t because he worked his full notice ???

I’m afraid the truth was the inevitable with Doug , as he doesn’t realise what he’s got & pay the going rate , therefore off Dennis went .
Another snippet from someone in the know & as we probably all thought at the time …… a very strange time to leave , as he was very well thought of ?

People are clutching at straws.
DL leaving did in no way effect yesterday. That was simply down to players not doing basics - work, clear decision making, hunger - they were 2nd best on every aspect of those things that cost nothing.
was it the SF - we’ll hope so, because that wasn’t acceptable. Was the final nail in coffin of play off hopes - and that’s fine.
Let’s not suggest DL has contributed to that - that is simply a player issue of application.

He got a promotion to Assistant manager and worked his notice period before leaving.
That’s it.
All the bullshit about pay and ‘a strange time to leave’ is just that.

Spot on. File it with-
- CoH only wants parity and he’s signing
- king is Sisu
- hamer wants to stay and only wants to be top earner
could go on…..
No one has said it caused yesterday, it must have an affect on the squad with a leader like that going.

Lawrence was great but I trust the team to get his replacement right. They've got all the backroom staff spot on.
The only person I think we wouldn't be able to replace other than Robins is Viveash.

On Gurney, i like the guy albeit i prefer Clive now but happy to have both with Oggy, but Rob needs to reign some of his comments in as he will p*ss the club off like he ended up doing when Strachan was here. Clive will nit actually give an opinion but put different viewpoints forward for fans to discuss. Rob does the same but then offers his opinions, and that will eventually p*ss the club off. Obviously he is a fan and speaks as a fan but he just needs to reign it in a bit for his own good given he has to deal professionally with the club.

I dunno why they had to even bring him back - he's been the kiss of death for City too since he's returned

I assume as Clive is a fair bit older it is with a view to replacing Clive eventually as i cannot see the budget stretching to having two heavyweight senior reporters every week at the same game.

As we all know, Clive is old enough to remember pulling ballboys off at half time.

Yes not having a coach on a sideline makes players make individual errors or the team just not turn up

He's effectively Clive's boss so that's not the reason at all
Im a superstitious man but it’s a little OTT !
Was that also the reason why Lawrence left ? If Gurneys on comms, I’m off

Geoff Foster did for a number of years before stepping down. Not heard anything about Clive though.
I’m sure Rob has come in as head of sport and therefore boss to Clive

As opposed to pulling them up seconds before full time.

DL leaving will have an effect on the training and will effect certain ways they set up. But generally its a team shape when we haven't got the ball. So certain errors are just individual brian farts as they are still pretty inexperienced group at this level. Probably why Bidwell doesn't really make them, he put himself in good positions and does the basics of his job well.
Robins will get someone in before preseason and new and old players will adapt. Thomas and Kitching will be a better for all the experiences this season.
