Averaging conceding 2 goals per match . We won’t progress without fixing that. What is to blame ? Formation, players, or how they are being coached ? For me it’s a combination of the quality of our defensive players and how they are being coached. Positional sense of our defensive players...

Saddle and others had suggested one or two heads had been turned in the summer and people assumed it was MVE, Wright etc ….. sounds like Sheaf was one of them based on his comments today. His tone is disappointing to be honest ….. the whole interview smacks of he’s disappointed to still be here...

If it’s true that the players are finding it confusing with the number of coaches giving information then that is down to Robins. The training ground, changing room, on field instructions is his area of control. He can simplify it if he chooses too. I don’t think the issue is the number of...

Robins “He ( King ) came in and he really wanted to make a strong impact, and still wants to make a strong impact in every aspect of the business. He’s a brilliant, brilliant person. He’s outstanding. I really enjoy working with him and I really like him. He’s head strong and he’s really bright...

Fans thinking they can sit where they want at matches regardless of the seat they have bought. If there is somewhere at a home match you want to sit buy a season ticket there, if it’s an away Match buy the seat that you want. You don’t get on a plane and sit where you fancy or go to a gig and...

I’m old enough t remember the circumstances under which Rob Gurney stopped reporting on CCFC. Getting too close to the thing that you love and seeing its imperfections was too much for him. I don’t doubt that @Saddlebrains or @GIMOC are die hard Cov fans who want the absolute best for the club...

It will be interesting to hear his take on the window now it’s closed. he’s been tight lipped all window but now he can choose not to be … get ready however for a series of statements rather than questions from Clive et al “ please to get the window shut mark” “ delighted to have kept your...

It might be my memory but I’m struggling to remember a player that we have loaned out for a season and they have ripped it up and come back a much much better player. I think Eccles is the last player I can recall being loaned out and going on to progress into the first team but that wasn’t due...

Robin’s said earlier in the season he planned to ensure EMC attended the odd match, met the players etc to ensure he hit the ground running in pre season. Does anyone know if this has happened ? Was he a guest at Wembley for example ?

I think it’s highly likely that Sheaf will move on this summer. Not because DK wants to sell him but because the guy wants a crack at the Premier league. He was explicit in his interview in the Wembley programme. DK will also see COH exit the club on a free this summer, he rightly won’t want to...

Do we know if they are actively recruiting at the minute or waiting until the summer ?

The last few weeks we have heard MR moan about squad size and the number of matches the players are playing etc etc ….. if you are 3-0 up at home to a non league side who have not had a shot on target and you choose to bring on proven players rather than give minutes to young players you have no...

Robin’s got it wrong tonight. we knew Preston would press hard and be physical yet we ignored the more physical and experienced Kitchin and Bidwell in favour of Binks and Da Silva . He waited until half time to alter anything and somehow managed to make us even less effective in the second...

Really poor comments from Ohare. No suggestion he’d like to stay, instead agent talk for I’ll be leaving on a free !. He’s contributed nothing for 12 months and if he intends to walk in the summer we should flush that out now and seek to sell him in January if he won’t sign a new deal. I...

We have drawn 6 matches this season giving us 6 points. We would have been better to have been less cautious, won2, drew 1 and lost 3…. Giving us 7 points. yesterday with Norwich barely getting out of their own half we played 3 centre half’s , even bringing on Binks to freshen up that back 3...

And why Kelly, Eccles, and Sheaf won’t work as a combo ….

We know Robins often says that this is a player we tried to sign previously etc etc so this is a thread for players we think we tried to sign this window … we can then see how they perform between now and January …. Brekalo Swift Dragus

So it’s Friday and Turner and Eakin are sharpening their pencils ready to ask Robins the questions we all want answering with a few days left in the Window …. so what should they ask ( 3 questions only ) What will they ask ( 2 questions only ) I’ll start …. should ask: 1) what are your first...

I think it’s clear that our end game starting front 2 are Haji and Simms. You don’t invest £11m to put one or more on the bench. This is creating an issue for Robins I suspect. Of the 3 Godden is probably the least impactful coming off the bench. When the game is stretched and there is more...

I’ll be totally honest I’d never heard of Tats, Milan, Binks or Haji before this window but I’m super excited at their potential. @Saddlebrains do you know who has been doing the due diligence on these players. They are not the sort that Austin or Johnson would have looked at at previous clubs...
