    Who is good enough next season?

    The odd thing for me is that Wright and Simms both look like they have some physical potential. Both tall and quick. However both look like they are new to the game and haven't received much coaching in their lives. Compared to Godden who doesn't have the physical attributes but clearly knows...

    Would have been great if we had got some extra players in during January but there is no excuse for the lack of heart and endeavour. Better in the second. Torp and Eccles got closer. For me there was only one player who looked like they were desperate for a win and that was Palmer. I don't...

    Palmer is our only player playing with any intensity and creativity. If Fadz was in the team we wouldn't have conceded the second goal. Thomas not anticipating and not putting in a challenge. O'Hare continues to think he is bigger than the team, moaning. Ben Wilson static for both goals. Surely...

    Hopefully Dasilva has learnt from Preston match to move the ball quicker. Something Bidwell is notably better at. He will need to start well for confidence. They will surely target that area.

    Robins Squad comments

    I agree with you in general. I think there are opportunities missed when he could blood some younger players. At the same time, due to the poor performance on Friday, he may have seen it as an opportunity to regain some confidence. With Dasilva especially, coming on and hearing his song must...

    He did exactly what would be expected for his role and he did it relentlessly. Takes discipline and know-how to play the way he does. Link the team, dictate the pace and let the creative players be creative. He was exceptional considering the little football he has played imo.

    Well done Robins for keeping Tavares on the pitch. He could have easily taken him off early based on performance. However, he stuck with him and he grabs a brace. Will do wonders for his confidence. His first a great finish and his second, perfect poaching. Special moment for him.

    I know the opposition are 6th tier but Kelly was excellent. Covered so much ground, constantly showing for the ball and keeping it moving. Played the simple pass most the time but a couple of quality long passes. Looked knackered at the end but kept showing and pressing. What a professional.

    Very professional half. Palmer set the tone with his endeavour. Great for Simms. Love the Kelly and Torp partnership. Feel sorry for Tavares. An opportunity for him to show his capability and unfortunately he has really struggled. Would like to see Kai Andrews second half and see what he can do...

    I think Godden will start. May even start with Simms alongside.

    Sakamoto Injury

    Awaiting confirmation of the seriousness of his injury is uncomfortable. Sakamoto has been the brightest spark of the season, an absolute delight to watch. Feeling sickened by the prospect of bad news and trying to be hopeful for better.

    Moore (know it isn't going to happen), so Collins Van Ewijk, Latibeudiere, Kitching, Bidwell Kelly, Torp (if fit, if not Eccles), O'Hare Palmer, Simms, Wright

    Hopefully we won't go into Monday's game with any complacency after that shit show. If we do we will be beaten.

    Thomas is reckless. Needs to come off. Van Ewijk and Eccles much improved second half. However still no creativity. Think it is a huge risk bringing Torp on in a winless game.
