If he effectively forced a move and downed tools what do you do?

Robins said something transpired over a 24 hour period that he wasn't happy about (basically sounded like Palmers agent was already talking to hull ) and he forced the sale because of it

[Ashdown]

Fuck me. I’m convinced I was watching a different game. He wasn’t at all. This is laughable.

I think we all feel like that at times.
First half Haji was all over them

downed tools? He played 90 mins day before the incident not as though he went on strike

 

[covboy9]

No need to panic robins just not got the team right yet

I will say simms is embarrassingly bad

Gimoc would prefer we gave him a contract for £25k a week

 

[pusbccfc]

Robins pretty much said he downed tools.

 

[shmmeee]

it’s called man management

The only man management Kasey wanted came in foldable bills.

 

[GIMOC]

Robins pretty much said he downed tools.

they had a massive bust up over the way he was subbed Tuesday night

 

[shmmeee]

they had a massive bust up over the way he was subbed Tuesday night

He was subbed cos he was shite.

 

[Evo1883]

they had a massive bust up over the way he was subbed Tuesday night

He had to be subbed because he gave the ball away 3 times in a couple of minutes which directly lead to chances

 

[Grendel]

they had a massive bust up over the way he was subbed Tuesday night

So his agent found him another club the next morning?

 

[pusbccfc]

Palmer had been slated throughout his time at Coventry but you can guarantee everyone will blame him moving on poor performances in the next month.

 

[GIMOC]

He was subbed cos he was shite.

30 secs before the final whistle

 

[GIMOC]

He had to be subbed because he gave the ball away 3 times in a couple of minutes which directly lead to chances

it was last kick of the game

not 10 mins before the end

 

[Evo1883]

it was last kick of the game

not 10 mins before the end

It was the 92nd minute with 8 added on

 

[GIMOC]

So his agent found him another club the next morning?

not hard in todays climate

there was no rumours of hull till the day it was announced

Nobody will, at least nobody with a footballing brain anyway.

 

[Grendel]

it was last kick of the game

not 10 mins before the end

So he suddenly found another club in the morning?

 

[Grendel]

not hard in todays climate

there was no rumours of hull till the day it was announced

There have been many rumours he was on his way

 

[rob9872]

There have been many rumours he was on his way

Yeah but nobody told GIMOC about them so they don't count

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

they had a massive bust up over the way he was subbed Tuesday night

You’re going to have to expand on this

 

[GIMOC]

It was the 92nd minute with 8 added on

There was 5 mins stoppage time and he came off in the 93rd min

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Yeah but nobody told GIMOC about them so they don't count

Honestly compare the way GIMOC posts about his ‘inside info’ with how Jimmy does it. Clearly the latter actually knows more and respects the club enough to not reveal more than appropriate.

 

[jas365]

Missed most of the post match, did they say how long Sheaf is out for?

 

[Covcraig@bury]

Utter dog shit , nothing at all to be positive about . DK needs to buy quality in jan or we will be middle to bottom of the league

 

[GIMOC]

You’re going to have to expand on this

what’s more to expand?

Wednesday they had a fallout and that was that

 

[Evo1883]

There was 5 mins stoppage time and he came off in the 93rd min

Ah right sorry , can see why he left now .

How awful

 

[Ccfcisparks]

There was 5 mins stoppage time and he came off in the 93rd min

So he didn’t come off with a minute to go then

 

[Evo1883]

So he didn’t come off with a minute to go then

Not like thousands of subs aren't made in injury time all over the country every season but whatever

 

[fatso]

For some strange reason Everton being 2-0 up at home against Bournemouth with 4 minutes to go, and managing to lose 2-3 has cheered me up a little.

(Only a little mind)

 

[shmmeee]

If you threaten to down tools or whatever cos you got subbed after playing shite no matter when you were subbed then you can fuck off frankly. Robins has made a lot of mistakes but not putting up with that bullshit isn’t one of them.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

what’s more to expand?

Wednesday they had a fallout and that was that

So Palmer thought with how he was playing and the game state he should have stayed on?

That would be why his career hasn’t progressed from all them years ago at Huddersfield.

Although it’s early days we are already 16th. Although we’ve had slow starts before, there usually were mitigating circumstances. This season we are supposedly favorites for promotion, but look worse than ever. This bad league run stretches back several games into last season and still hasn’t been rectified.

Today throughout the team we looked disjointed and a few times several players chasing a ball that it only needed one . Very little communication and no leadership. Midfield was missing , gaps everywhere.
