One (very) bad game doesn't make Eccles a bad player.

Let's not write him off, he's still young.

Sunderland? He even apologised on Twitter for his performance

You often have said he’s going to be a big player for us this season haven’t you?

What are Liam Kellys Hamstrings made of?

He played v FGR and Wolves last week Howley has done well tbf… even though he’s really an attacking midfielder, he has played CB against Leamington, Forest, FGR and Wolves U23’s. He picked up a knock against Wolves so wasn’t involved at Oxford..still only 18 too…

Think if it was Tuesday we might have seen more of the big guns. Being Wednesday leaves very little recovery before Saturday. Also going to be sweltering on Saturday so need the starting 11 to be at 100%

Ref trying to outdo Eccles terriblenese

 

[Skybluecol]

I'm a massive Robins supporter but he's got this soo wrong it's unreal. He has to change something at half time, at least 3 changes imo. Motivation of this squad is going to be affected with this result and the bollocks off the pitch. Not an important competition but an important game for morale. Poor choice from MR

 

[Nick]

How many bad games did Gyokeres have in his first spell? More than 2.

Yeah, exactly the same player.

He's about 4 seconds behind everybody else.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Still not shooting

 

[theferret]

Resting players that have played 1 competitive game in 3+ months, wtf is that all about? We'll be blowing out of our arse at Millwall.

Wasps are loving this

Don't want a tonking (already getting one) and it would destroy Eccles if he is hooked in the first half. Nobody will give a sh*t about today if we perform at Millwall. Today may help MR make up his mind about one or two players. If we had won today, the cup offers you next to nothing in terms of £££s. Game already forgotten about in my head (barely registered on my annoyance scale, although if you're at the game, I guess you will rightly feel different) - just don't want any injuries.

 

[Wyken Sky Blue]

Fucking 3-0?!

Load of bollocks!

Robins gonna blame the f in pitch?

 

[PVA]

Huh? I'm not saying they're the same player.

I'm saying it's possible for someone to have a few bad games and come good.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

On rare occasions we finally get decent positions they get spaffed

 

[Tommo1993]

Have we given BAFC any money for using their ground?

 

[Liquid Gold]

10 championship teams played L1/& L2 teams yesterday and they all lost. Nobody gives a shit about this competition.

Saying that, our squad depth is piss poor and a couple of key injuries (sales) could really fuck up our season.

Agreed, we're already behind where Millwall will be

It's going to be almost 40 degrees on Saturday. Right decision to rest them tonight

Why? Send him to League 2 on loan then

Because its a nothing cup

 

[Paxman II]

Allen and Eccles were never going to cut it. When I saw the team sheet i was worried it had too many changes too soon. So do we let this go or change the team and go after a draw and pens?

If he brings on Gyo and Hamer and they get injured you'd be fuming (even if we win 4-3)!

 

[Nick]

Should have been 4.

 

[CCFCBat]

Oh I’ve missed the melt downs on this forum during games over the summer. Such entertainment

Losing is one thing but just getting thrashed kicks morale

 

[skybluegod]

This is his second.

Barely League 2 standard.

Oh for fuck sake Nick give it a rest. He's shown more than enough last season to show he can play at the level.

It's so short termist 'drag him off' 'hes fucking shit' 'he's league 2 standard' I hope to god you have never managed people. He's not had a good game yes, but the rest of the team has been dire too. No support from a far more senior player in Allen.

 

[Nick]

When has he shown glimpses? Are you here?

 

[larry_david]

Robins would love us to be out of this cup. He's said for months about the schedule before the break

 

[theferret]

No I wouldn't. They need minutes. It's a competive fixture early in the season and we've had a game postponed. Play them ffs.

Did he? When?

Short term? He's been here years

I wouldn't have the equivalent working for me.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

‘We’ve had a shot’ rings around the ground

Spot on why would Wasps be loving it.

 

[PVA]

No I'm not there and I'm not doubting you saying he's having a shit game.

But he's shown plenty of glimpses. Robins obviously thinks so too.

Plus he's playing next to Allen. He'd look a lot better next to Hamer or Sheaf.

 

[Nick]

Aderamola is the only positive
