    OFFICIAL: Mark Robins has been sacked

    Shocking. But probably the right decision. Robins seems to be unsure what to do, what his best team or formation is. He seems unable to motivate the squad and the players aren't playing for him. I was expecting it over the summer. Deadly Doug really is deadly. All the best to Mark for his...

    They broke forward and put Rudoni under pressure. That was the plan sit back and break occasionally. It worked.

    That happens when you are chasing games. Especially at home.

    'Our day' is interesting for this team. What sparks us into playing with tempo? Wright being on it and in the mood playing on the left? Saka playing in front of MVE, cutting in with crosses and shots? They're the only real sparks in the team I think. Otherwise it's reacting to being in the...

    They were defending a lead and could just sit back in numbers. They came with a plan and it worked. We didn't have a plan.

    Lack of motivation is a huge problem with this team. Night game, good crowd, winning run and we start flat as a pancake, so slow and lethargic, clueless as to what the plan is. I'm not sure Robin's quiet brooding moody style helps motivate this group. Imagine Sir Alex in with them...

    Who knows. Robins still seems to not know his best 11 and their best positions.

    Robins got done tactically and the team formation was completely wrong. Saka and MVE came to life when Saka was moved wide right. Torp is a much better no 10 where he can pass and shoot. Wright is much better on the left than down the middle. Rudi isn't a wing back JDS is. Why didn't Sheaf...

    Just play players in their best positions. MVE and Saka both came to life and sparked the team when Saka was moved wide right. Play Wright on the left, he does little down the middle. Rudi isn't a wing back. JDS is. Play Torp no 10 where he can pass and shoot.

    Can anyone guess what our plan was today? They were clearly going to defend in numbers and occasionally try and break. And it worked.

    I'd figure that we were chasing the game most the time. You?

    Someone's got to explain to me why Sheaf is so highly regarded.

    Saka and MVE playing together works. Do it.

    What's so hard about MVE playing with Saka wide in front of him, which works, and Torp at no 10. But generally it's been unbelievably slow and hopeless. Something very weird about this teams motivation.

    They are playing Hamer on the wing as per above. Madness.

    The only negative is Robins has added at least 3 permutations to his first 11 spinning wheel .

    I guess with our lopsided squad we were expecting a few 3:2 wins.... Maybe Robins should just let rip and go for it every game. Anywhere anytime.

    2:2 will be seen as a building block....
