Love your enthusiasm!Just home from the game...i take it no point reading this thread as its all negative?
I was proud of the lads today, nothing to realistically play for yet the the way they fought to the bitter end with 10 men ifought was really commendable given they are literally out on their feet.
Will be champions next season. Mark my words.
Genuinely think will be us and Burnley vying for the title next season. We havent yet seen the best of this team, and at times we have looked unplayable so next season id think we will be alot better.Love your enthusiasm!
I’d have been happy if today was game 46. It’s so glaringly obvious that we’ve burnt out.
Will only happen if we have a stronger squad. Robins is a very good manager but not a miracle worker.
Erm, thanks for that. Just City or all of his clubs. Huddersfied and Rotherham?…not according to the ‘stats’ he’s not
So, were the

Don't mind Godden Kelly and Allen going but Bidwell is still more than useful, would rather Da Silva go but some fool gave him a longer contractNot sure if anyone else mentioned it but..
Godden, Kelly, Allen and Bidwell stood together after game and said goodbye to fans. Shocked by Bidwell.
Fadz did as well !
Have you dumped your god Kenny.Best get Steve Evans in then
You’re simply not getting the point. I haven’t said he’s a bad player, just that I think that the statistical evidence of what impact he has on the team (overall, result-wise) would be interesting to see.check what? I’m not saying the stat is made up, I’m saying that it’s a nonsense to say that Sheaf is bad based on what was quoted, whether true or not it doesn’t really make a difference
…and you still haven’t checked the validity of the original point made, by cross checking Sheafs involvement with overall team form, before making another petulant outburst.not sure, suggests city because of the badge but it could well be all clubs
I’m assuming you’ve not read the posts on this thread regarding ‘stats’ then…
someone’s opinion is always ‘clouded by’ personal opinion you plonker, that’s why it’s a personal opinion….You’re simply not getting the point. I haven’t said he’s a bad player, just that I think that the statistical evidence of what impact he has on the team (overall, result-wise) would be interesting to see.
I was trying to illustrate that, like someone else mentioned, someone’s opinion or view can often be clouded by a personal view.

by the way, having now checked this stat I’m not sure how you can take anything from it….
Ben Sheaf In - W11, D8, L10
Ben Sheaf Out - W6, D5, L4
So this season (roughly)…
we’ve won over a third of games with him in, and over a third with him out
and we’ve lost a third with him in, and a quarter with him out
which tells us…?
Maybe 1 pulled out late onWhy did Robins have 2 keepers in the bench ??
a wasted opportunity for another outfield academy player.
if he wanted to give the young keeper some match day experience put him in the bench instead of Wilson.
Exactly my thinking. Must have been a.late decision, or illness.Maybe 1 pulled out late on
Man City have done this today. It happens quite a lot.Exactly my thinking. Must have been a.late decision, or illness.
Stated the other day that Kitching isnt the level expected from within the club let alone us fans
Another example..
Just out of curiosity, why has Robins not really dropped Kitching? Especially given that we’d ideally make Binks a permanent signing.
I’m not doubting the info, but it just seems strange they have these concerns and continued playing him.
Can’t argue with any of that to be fair and it’s a real pity about Binks.2 fold really. Even though we would like Binks, and Binks wants to stay, Bologna seem to think he deserves a huge joke price tag so the chances are minimal
Secondly, with the outlay on him, the club dont want to throw 4.5 million away without working as much as possible with him.
The frustration seems to be his pace on the turn back towards goal, he is slow to react on players making a curved well timed run (eg Stansfield for blues 3rd, and a few times before) and fitness levels are not where they need to be, which after 8 months here isn't great
We wont be selling him, and we will still be working to have him and Thomas as our starting partnership come August with a full pre season behind them and a proper rest
well he failed miserably with Da Silva although to be fair to the lad he has played ok in the last couple of gamesYeah, think it’s safe to say he rates Bidwell but he always tries to improve on him
I think Bidwell is sound to be honest more pressing positions to sort
To be absolutely fair to him its match fitness he wants and he wasn't played regularly so we probably haven't seen him at his absolute best2 fold really. Even though we would like Binks, and Binks wants to stay, Bologna seem to think he deserves a huge joke price tag so the chances are minimal

Need more than just Bidwell at LB for a minimum 48 game season though.Yeah, think it’s safe to say he rates Bidwell but he always tries to improve on him

We'll have to stick with Dasilva as he's on a long contract.Need more than just Bidwell at LB for a minimum 48 game season though.
Would prefer to avoid another 3 seasons of teams hoofing it over to his side of the pitch all gameWe'll have to stick with Dasilva as he's on a long contract.

Presumably to be filed in the same drawer as the "none of the squad rate any of the new signings" stuff from early on in the seasonJust out of curiosity, why has Robins not really dropped Kitching? Especially given that we’d ideally make Binks a permanent signing.

We can't be paying silly money for him, so may have to look elsewhereCan’t argue with any of that to be fair and it’s a real pity about Binks.

Not quite on the Rhian Brewster scale of silly, but a bit on the high side for us; that said, the higher we try to progress, these type of outlays will have to happen, and we won't get every one right (not writing Kitching off yet, though)We paid silly money for Kitching
Might not prove to be the case in time, though it has seemed high so far.We paid silly money for Kitching

I’ll check the stats myself and get back to you, as I prefer to find out firsthand. However, getting the time to do so is rare.by the way, having now checked this stat I’m not sure how you can take anything from it….

Dasilva has been excellent last few. Has a higher ceiling than Bidwell and suits our attacking play more IMO.
