Had to have a read. Fucking toxic over there.

Robins has made us look worse... We are just as shit going forward but he has made us worse defensively
Lion's share of possession, no shots on target...sounds familiar

Funnily enough, they are the 2 that I would fancy us most against ( as opposed to Burnley) They may have some stars, but Hamer will be knackered by the end of the season, or will show his love for the Sky Blues. Sunderland haven't won in the last 9 against us.
I think we can defo make playoffs but I wouldn't be very confident of beating sheff utd or Sunderland in the semis

Plymouth away on Easter Monday is looking like a much more daunting task if we are in need of a result all of a sudden, he's got them playing really well to be fair

Judging by what I am reading from their fans on socials, looks like Carrick has used up his credit in the bank at Middlesbrough and patience wearing thin... 3 wins in 13 and heavy investment in Jan (albeit offset by the loss of Latte Lath)

Quite a lot blaming poor recruitment and trying to argue MR needs more time. It's Stoke, he won't get it.

They're a bit of a basket case. I couldn't think of anything worse footballing wise than being the type of club who burn through managers every few months, (again).
Having said that, I'm sure he'll be handsomely rewarded for his troubles.

I would hope so, otherwise it points to poor judgement on his part.

Derby confirm Eustace.

Blackburn must have really let him down with whatever they promised him investment wise.

Middlesbroughs defence is absolutely hideous btw, actually think we might finish ahead of these despite them being a fancied team pretty much all season.

They still have a game in hand but I can't see them finishing in the top 6. Too inconsistent. Beat a decent side one game then fail to beat a lesser side the next. Wouldn't surprise me if they finish mid table or even in the bottom half.

As i said yesterday games in hand only matter if you get points from them.

Love that we’re now reaching into whether Robins retirement planning is sufficient to find faults 🤣
I didn't say that at all, you really find it hard to understand the obvious conclusion. 😁

So just done a very un-scientific look at remaining fixtures (yes I'm bored at work today)
Analysis I have used is
If a team is playing anyone around them or playing performing teams (i.e. Plymouth) then it's a draw
If a team is playing one of the top 4 then it's a loss
If a team is playing anyone else it's a win
As I said not scientific at all and there will be a lot of swings and roundabouts in the games to be played but it gives the following

5th place WBA 71 points
6th place Coventry 71 points
7th place Blackburn 70 points
8th place Middleboro 69 points
9th place Watford 68 points
10th place Sheff Wed 67 points

Fingers crossed and a fair wind and I'll see you all at Wembley PUSB

Nice. But interested to see the landscape once there are 10 games to go. West Brom, Blackburn, Middlesbrough, Watford, all in poor form, with Wednesday not much better. Bristol City and Norwich form pretty good at the moment, but will it hold. West Brom with a relatively decent run in, but can't beat a club in crisis at home.

Watching the Stoke game. They’re in trouble especially with Plymouth looking likely to pick up some points

So Mark Robins continues where he left off with us then.

But people will say he needs time, but can't bring themselves to say the same about Lampard. 🙈
