Saved us a few times being so quick off his line.

From what I recall he only had one touch? It was a bit frustrating that he had clearly come on to run into balls over the top but then players seemed reluctant to release any for him to chase. I guess it’s against the ethos of how we play which is generally to patiently build but then Gyro had...

Do you know what, I saw the torrential rain in the morning and I thought I’ll bet they’ll still water the pitch.

I don’t suppose we’ve got any hope of getting Swift post season, think his contract is up.

Watching the replays last night a defender went to clear it and sliced it but got some contact I think.

Sheaf I think, everyone started groaning when the ball went back to him then he played it in.

I stand corrected! Maybe we will see Taveres

I doubt we will start 2 up front with so few options and I suspect we will end up in a tense holding on situation.

Not feeling confident today with the lack of midfield options. Hopefully we have enough to put a poor team to the sword.

Yes, possibly, but as I said we have a thin squad and need to get everything out of what we have. Who would you replace Gyro with? Tavares?

Yeah, agreed. But we are where we are.

Sure, but my original point was about Gyro in league games, who isn’t playing through an injury. If you’re making a general point that Robins over used players and causes injuries then I think you need more examples and I would point you back to my original point about risk management, medical...

Yes agreed, but that echoes what I said about risk management and trying to keep our best players on the pitch in a thin squad.

No, my original point, to which you answered with a tangentially related question which I obviously can’t answer because I have no knowledge of what the conversation was between the staff which resulted in Dabo playing while injured.

Yes but how can I answer that question and what does it have to do with my point?

Alright Grendel

To play in the U23 and to make up the numbers?

Too many students in the city centre? Wokeness? Sure, throw them all in.

Hugely more likely than it being anything to do with vaccines but not nearly as exciting for fact seekers.

There are staff to asses players and advise against playing players when too tired. It’s risk management isn’t it? We’re trying to win the game so need our best players on the pitch as much as possible.
