Yeah what’s actually happened is we’re playing the bottom four. I get how it can be confusing though.

Have you only just started watching us play or something?

Anyone can beat anyone in the Championship

Even under Robins there was plenty of times where we’d lose to the bottom teams and then beat the top ones

Exactly lol

Also 3 wins 3 draws 2 losses

If someone had told us that would be his first 8 games everyone would have said yeh solid start for a new manager.

Would they have told us the opposition it was against too?

"we shouldn't be getting hammered 4-1 by 2nd from bottom and we should be doing better against 3rd from bottom with 10 men"

"OmG wHy Do YoU wAnT cItY tO fAiL"


Fucking get a grip.

43% win rate is very good

Ok so that means we will beat the top teams when we get to our difficult run! I look forward to it

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Didn’t watch the match. Just catching it back but looking at the stats we were unlucky not to win?

 

[clint van damme]

Beyond tactics these players just look spineless. So any instructions probably go on deaf ears anyway.

First half was worse than Pompey.

See this is another conundrum, I agree they're spineless, yet they've shown enough bollocks to turn games around under all 3 managers this season, so there's evidence there for anyone trying to refute it.

For me there's a real mystery around why this group are so shit because they've shown sporadically that they're not.

 

[covmark]

8 and 5 games against the bottom 4


Ffs

Think you'd be better off nipping to Stoke at the weekend.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

We were lucky to not lose

 

[shmmeee]

with the exception of Dovin, Wilson, MVE, Lats, JDS, Bidwell, Allen, Sheaf, EMC, BTA, Rapha, Wright, Simms, Rudoni and Tats

the remaining few are bad apples - attitudes, tantrums, thinking they are better than others or they deserve a place in the team, all sorts - won’t get anywhere as a team when they aren’t playing for each other and there are divides

some players’ heads have dropped because they keep being let down and they don’t enjoy the toxic atmosphere, we’re going to lose some gems soon because of it

ITK or speculation?

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

43% win rate is very good

Fingers crossed the EFL just let us play the bottom 4 over and over again for the rest of the season

 

[bigfatronssba]

Was he not sacked?

Not after 7 games with no window to bring in his own players

 

[Great_Expectations]

what I do find odd is you never made such negative post prior to lampard taking over in any specific game

Touched you remember everyone of my 5500 posts in fairness

Think you'd be better off nipping to Stoke at the weekend.

I think you need to look at our run of fixtures coming up and wonder how we will get on if we are playing so poorly against the bottom sides

 

[Captain Dart]

He's had 7 games ffs

8 games now and one coming up on Saturday.

 

[bigfatronssba]

Ok so that means we will beat the top teams when we get to our difficult run! I look forward to it

Well we’ve done that quite often over the past few years

Just write the remaining few

It depends.

Against Millwall it was the worst performance of the season because we didn't have as many shots on target as against Derby.

Today we had more so should please some people.

They played a half with 10 men and we didn't have the urgency to go for the kill and 3 points.

 

[covmark]

I guess we'll see won't we

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Brilliant, thank goodness we have the manager in charge who pulled off such feats. Oh wait…

 

[napolimp]

Not after 7 games with no window to bring in his own players

That's only relevant if you think there's a problem with this group of players, I personally do not - although I understand there are people who think they are poor.

 

[Nick]

We were lucky to not lose

No we weren't. Was this like Millwall where they had all the best chances?

 

[covcity4life]

It

Would they have told us the opposition it was against too?

Its the championship. Fixation on who you play every week is silly.

 

[Evo1883]

I guess we'll see won't we

Well il still be there in Norwich next week not Stoke, will you ?

 

[Nick]

Brilliant, thank goodness we have the manager in charge who pulled off such feats. Oh wait…

He's gone. Get the fuck over it.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

No we weren't. Was this like Millwall where they had all the best chances?

They absolutely did in the second half. That Meite chance was the best of the half

 

[bigfatronssba]

Just so long as we don’t face the Championship colossal giants of Norwich, Preston, and Sheff Wednesday like we did under Robins. No manager could be expected to beat them

 

[steve101]

Not sure it was a lucky point.

We dropped 2

We certainly didn't do enough to win the game and if it wasn't for a very good one on one stop from Dovin, it could have been worse.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

He's gone. Get the fuck over it.

Fuck off

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

ITK or speculation?

more than just speculation

 

[covmark]

Jesus Christ.

 

[shmmeee]

Not after 7 games with no window to bring in his own players

Are his own players coming in with better tactical ideas too?

He isn’t getting 19 new players in Jan. He needs to get the most out of what’s here. That’s was the literal task as described by King.

"we shouldn't be getting hammered 4-1 by 2nd from bottom and we should be doing better against 3rd from bottom with 10 men"

No agenda here

 

[Nick]

Yeah it was much better than asante missing an open goal.

Why do people make things up because robins isn't our manager?

 

[bigfatronssba]

Mate, Iain Dowie pulled off such feats. It’s called football.

Do you think teams should always beat those below them?
