Mental. I couldn’t see a foul from the other end and nor can I on any of the replays/angles. BTA doesn’t even jump into the keeper - if anything his own player impedes him. But again, I don’t know what a foul is any more.

Again for me, it’s the inconsistency. Last night and Tamworth today as an example. there doesn’t appear to be any differences between certain incidents yet one is a free kick and one isn’t? I just don’t know what’s a foul now and what isn’t. Last night it just felt like every time a SW player...

Said this before, he was the captain of the England team with foden and co that won the under 17 World Cup. That surely counts for something and shows he had that from a young age and its leadership attributes we could do with even if he isn’t quite in the style of Fadz or Michael Doyle etc

Is this cos they think they’re better than they are Billy Big Bollockses? Just odd because ultimately if they want out the situation is mostly their making cos of what happens on the pitch? Robins warned of this early in the season didn’t he? Saying he only wanted players here who are committed...

Application mainly for me, I think on their day with everyone fit we should be able to compete with anyone in the division. And have shown it at times - but the best teams do it consistently and we simply haven’t but ability should include mentality and football intelligence and we are lacking...

he’s a kid to me 🤣 which is something I was gonna say - if he hasn’t really broken through by now to be a regular it’s not gonna happen is it. The injury him him hard, and he did well against Man Utd but he needs to play football.

I think Tavares will be on his way. Kid needs regular game time and he’s not gonna get it here. Lampard doesn’t fancy him I don’t think. League 1 would suit him I think.

How is Simms expected to get going this year if he’s barely playing? I thought he did ok last game - yet he’s dropped. Earlier in season (Luton I think?) he scores and then dropped for next game. He’s clearly a confidence player and just think he hasn’t been shown any this season, Robins...

I’m not keen on the players doing the whole waving arms thing to the crowd after 10 minutes to get us going. I understand it to a point as it works both ways, but give us something to get excited about, not just winning a throw in.

Mmm, does make you wonder why they’d have let him go as he was their top scorer - his replacement in Maja has been great to be fair so an educated gamble perhaps? I’m not even sure what his best position is - through the middle as part of a 2 with Simms/Wright with him I’d suggest.

And I guess this will always be the issue - we have to go and get players like Sakamoto and van ewijk and wright and hope they pay off and develop like Hamer and Viktor did.

Yeah I only included him cos they’d gone down, but yeah he was from a champ rival. But not one kicking around the top 6-10 etc

forgive me if this has already been said, but I’m pretty confident that Collins and Dasilva (as Kasey Palmer and all previous Chelsea loans would have been) were Viveash players that he had/trusted/wanted from his Chelsea days, albeit would presumably been given the OK by Austin and Robins, so...

I’m trying to find where he said it that he’d instigated it himself - I found a couple of articles where he’s addressed the fact we’ve got new coaches and a new structure and is looking at how it will work etc. Unless it was a spoken interview. anyway, it’s up to me whether I believe what Doug...

Carr was clearly a King/Roberts/Austin appointment (hence him being the caretaker and still here now). Boateng a weird one really.

Without being in the know, my take is that I didn’t believe much of what king said at the forum anyway about what robins wanted in the coaching structure. just seems weird to me that if we take what Doug said as gospel, that MR wanted four ‘flat’ coaches and no assistant or head of coaching, but...

Honeyman second half did it on purpose to get the crowd going down by family zone. It’s that isn’t it - bit of banter. I agree on the Torp song - it’s shit. Reminds me of the one Villa fans sing to hi ho silver lining (hi ho Aston Villa) - can’t just change two words to the player/team name...

He looked like he was still limping when he was walking round the pitch at full time the other day. Looked ‘delicate’. I know he walks a certain way anyway but even so.

It is marimba rhythm in the song.

Yeah pretty much agree. Although the first 20 minutes I felt like there was no way we weren’t going to score at some point - if we got one really clear cut chance then it was going in, and I’d be disappointed if we didn’t get a draw at least. but that never happened did it 🤦🏻‍♂️
