    If I was looking to keep my job I do not think I would be looking to Ben Wilson to help save it

    Depends on the performance - Saturday is the real acid test

    Ellis Simms

    It is totally reasonable to make observations about Simms - he has played in over 50 games and only scored in 12 of them. He is a physically strong player but often does not do enough. He is a highly paid employee and at present is not delivering.

    Ellis Simms

    He wasn't suited to a lone role up front but still did aspects better than Simms who does have the attributes but none of the endeavour

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The rumours of course become bizarre and centre round his contempt for women

    Let’s be honest it doesn’t matter which one plays in terms of results - Dasilva is just so easily caught out of position when the opposition attack and struggles to get back. He was a signing we just could have done without

    Viveash gone

    There are several rumours all with a similar theme. Better Days - a more reliable source on these matters - confirmed Robins and Viveash have not been getting on for some time

    Motivation- Down to the players

    He called him a poof in front of his team mates and destroyed him. I once when living near the City Ground found Clough lying on our front garden pissed. Fortunately the world has moved on from people like him.

    Problems and Solutions

    James played over 30 games last season. Ironically his injury record has improved massively. I don’t have any idea how thin the budget is but there’s no doubt we have room as we didn’t expect Palmer to leave. Sometimes you have to make a pragmatic short term decision to try and improve a...

    Who selected and appointed the coaching staff ?

    Why is everyone obsessed with Claire Robert’s as if she has total control and influence. She specialises is sports psychology and has worked for other clubs and the Olympic Team in psychology motivation and coaching. She has played for Aston Villa. She doesn’t recruit players, train them or...

    Robins had zero clue

    A lot of commentators do think though Ferguson running the whole club was going to cause problems when he left as the structure was totally different to other clubs. It was backward in many ways. Here robins ran it I suspect very differently which does cause issues. Viveash clearly was a major...

    The Players

    Well it wouldn’t if it was Oxford or Derby Fact is the issue identified last season was lack of squad depth. The club has built a squad of players with good experience at this level and supporters have bought into a vision of upward growth. Promotion is hard to achieve but most supporters went...

    His job as a lone striker is to move down the channels, get the ball and hold it, bully and work defenders. He’s doing none of that. He is passive and clumsy. Godden was never a striker suited to one up front but he never shirked it and ran and ran
