exactly. A lot of people now calling for Robins to leave.

Its not a great spell, but we are still 8th....

Next week we face Luton who will attack us. Very likely it will give us opportunities to attack

HAHAHAHAHAHA loving your style,

"gave max and stokesy a breather today as things weren't quite right"

 

[oucho]

Great. 1 was a pen and it was completely different side that played and scored the second....

3 players started both games so not COMPLETELY different

Then again this comment shows he is massively clutching at straws....

 

[dongonzalos]

Robins convinced it will come for the strikers .
I still think he will change it January and he just wants us there and there about till then.

Robins

"i believe in the players"

Yhen avain this comment shows he is massively clutching at straws....

Virtually different side then... beacon went off at half time and ponti who replaced him scored the second goal.

Hasn't got the luxury of flip flopping.

Robins

"we are water tight at the back, but need that little bit of quality up front"

Because we were 6 on 1 at the back

 

[ccfcway]

Robins

"we don't score, the supporters get on our backs, we get anxious, supports get on again and then players look at twitter and get more anxious"

 

[oucho]

"we are water tight at the back"

So is a swan's arse, but no fucker wants to sit watching one of those for 90 minutes

 

[Nick]

Robins

"we don't score, the supporters get on our backs, we get anxious, supports get on again and then players look at twitter and get more anxious"

And he still didn't reference his system.

not sure why. I have a pair that was £3 from Primark

Robins

If the players are looking at Twitter during the game then it's no fucking wonder we can't score. What a bellend comment.

The fans' fault, he IS clutching at straws. That's a pathetic excuse. Sorting the formation might help, Mark.

I think that with Jones today we win. Made all the difference him going off.

I am not too disheartened. Strong at the back again and it is just not quite clicking for us.

Any news on Jones' injury?

 

[Gazolba]

9 players back in our box lots of the second half. Robins is stubborn I reckon

Or protecting Burge?

MR hints perhaps he needs a rest

That doesn't add up. You don't rest a player by starting with them then subbing them before halftime. Plus JJ was limping off.

"not saying MR has to go, but he tells us whats wrong, but his job is to sort it out"

sorry, he said he didn't know the extent of the injury, but that perhaps he needed a rest

 

[pusbccfc]

Robins putting some of the blame on the fans moaning on twitter. If it is a problem for the players ban them from going on it after the game.

 

[mark_ccfc]

How did Burge play today?

 

[oucho]

How did Burge play today?

Sounds like he had nothing to do.

 

[ccfcway]

How did Burge play today?

very little to do, kept a clean sheet

 

[Otis]

How did Burge play today?

Okay. Nowt to do really, past one very good punch from a dangerous cross.

His kicking was once again very poor though.

 

[stupot07]

How did Burge play today?

He did about as much as to Colchester Keeper.

Steward not up I don't think. Looked potentially really not good at all

Seen an ambulance near the away end as we left! Hope that’s just precautionary!

 

[Chip Batch]

Remember when we won 3 in a row and everyone was going crazy about how good we are, how good Robins is and how we're certs to go up.

Sooner rather than later we're going to win 3 in a row and everyone is going to be saying the same things. Football fans are so fickle.

I was and am saying neither, buts it's obvious he needs to change things a bit. I still think he's a good manager.

Although he had competition from their keeper when it comes to poor kicking

This division is all about capitalizing on defensive mistakes, but to stand a chance of that you have to get shots on target to start with. Any shot from any distance on target has a chance of leading to something either a goalkeeping error or defensive cock up. To go through a home game with nothing on target at this level is just criminal.

"we don't score, the supporters get on our backs, we get anxious, supports get on again and then players look at twitter and get more anxious"

Blaming the fans is the sign of a manager who is looking for excuses.

The Colchester keeper did make one very good save. Burge had nothing at all to do.

Who says we had nothing on target?

Except the very good punch from the dangerous cross under a lot of pressure.

If the stats are to believed we didn't hit the target in 9 attempts. I can't remember which save you're on about?

Robins needs to go. I can put up with not winning games but when the manager can't see what's going wrong you need to change.

now you want rid of him, who do you suggest we go for ?

 

[Essexrobbie]

Robins is being very poor. 7 hrs without a goal is shit in any league and in this league it's awful. No shots on target. McNulty missing another tap in.

wasn't there but ... no shots on target!
