I think my granny could have kept a clean sheet yesterday, Stoke had one shot on target, they are definitely in a relegation battle.Wilson
MVE - Thomas - Binks - Dasilva
Eccles - Lati
Sakamoto - O'Hare - Wright
Simms
On the assumption that Torp is injured or rested, Sakamoto is back and Wilson/Binks keep their places after a clean sheet.
I’ve read this lots and then heard what he said and it’s nowhere near as negative as you are making outSomething not quite right with our messiah, post match loads of negatives connected to how many games we are playing, with the exception of the Cup, which he probably does not want us to be in, all teams in the EFL will play 46 games! His comment about not having a number 1 keeper, equally strange, Collins is a better keeper than both Moore and Wilson. Cannot imagine Collins was pleased about being dropped. Is he still fed up cos we did not sign more players in January? Something not right, too many negatives, thankfully at this stage not on the pitch. Think it is Robins that needs a break not the players.
Fair enough, my perception is having listened to his last three post match comments he does not seem to be quite right. I am not criticising Robins, although do think not knowing your number keeper is is odd, I just feel he is agitated or a bit fucked.I’ve read this lots and then heard what he said and it’s nowhere near as negative as you are making out
Agree 100%, he ain't a happy bunny and seems to be complaining on an almost daily basis whereas he was strangely silent when Joy and her chums were in charge.Something not quite right with our messiah, post match loads of negatives connected to how many games we are playing, with the exception of the Cup, which he probably does not want us to be in, all teams in the EFL will play 46 games!

He probably is slightly frustrated due to the depth of our squad, and how he wishes he could rotate with “dare I say” better players?Fair enough, my perception is having listened to his last three post match comments he does not seem to be quite right.

Clean sheets are nice but ultimately winning games is what matters, with Collins in goal we lost two games, both away against top 6ish sides, Stoke will possibly get relegated. Collins and Kitching have to start.6 days rest now, everyone should be raring to go for this one (assuming Torp is fit). Be interesting to see what team he goes with here, can you change the back 5 after keeping our first clean sheet in 12?
I had the impression that MR and DK were singing from the same hymn sheet early doors, is DK flexing his business muscles now and making it clear how it is and will be?He probably is slightly frustrated due to the depth of our squad, and how he wishes he could rotate with “dare I say” better players?
He wanted more in the window and DK needs to know that thin squads will always struggle when players get injured or tired.
This. Robins has been put under a bit of pressure by King making the statement he did about reaching the playoffs 3/5. We're in a position to do that this season, but he wasn't given what he felt he needed in January. Obviously the season is not over, but I don't think it's a stretch to say we'd be more likely to make it this year with more players in.He probably is slightly frustrated due to the depth of our squad, and how he wishes he could rotate with “dare I say” better players?

Ultimately, I think on one hand King insisting we compete in the FA Cup but not adding to the squad with exception of Torp in January is definitely a point of difference. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.He probably is slightly frustrated due to the depth of our squad, and how he wishes he could rotate with “dare I say” better players?

We absolutely should compete in the FA cup competition. The indifference we have shown in the past along with many other clubs is a disgrace to what was and should continue to be a national institution.Ultimately, I think on one hand King insisting we compete in the FA Cup but not adding to the squad with exception of Torp in January is definitely a point of difference.

I agree, id like to see something likeClean sheets are nice but ultimately winning games is what matters, with Collins in goal we lost two games, both away against top 6ish sides, Stoke will possibly get relegated. Collins and Kitching have to start.
Maybe, he is missing Joy.......did she forget to send him a Valentines card. Never easy to be optimistic when we play Preston, but I will never forget Manset's 96 minute equaliser against them, with a young Callum Wilson scoring twice in a 4 - 4 draw.Agree 100%, he ain't a happy bunny and seems to be complaining on an almost daily basis whereas he was strangely silent when Joy and her chums were in charge.
We need to get the PNE monkey off our backs this Friday.
Tall right mid so Bidwell may come in6 days rest now, everyone should be raring to go for this one (assuming Torp is fit). Be interesting to see what team he goes with here, can you change the back 5 after keeping our first clean sheet in 12?
Preston are hard, physical, but more effective than Stoke, so despite a clean sheet Bidwell and Kitching back makes sense to me.Tall right mid so Bidwell may come in
He’s a planner and organiser they’ll be methodYeah EMC would have made a big difference. But the time to moan isn’t now. Robins should have told Doug to leave it if he wasn’t happy. But to moan about not enough being spend when we’ve dropped almost £30m this season is a bit rich. Hopefully it’s moaning for the EFL/FA and the summer as much as anything.
That but Wilson will playCollins

Does seem a bit weird he's complaining about squad now but just accepted it under SISU. Of course we didn't have the windfalls of big money sales and he didn't have the same pressures to succeed at the time, but I'd say this is as good as it's ever been almost. Who'd have thought we'd spend £9m on one player? Or £4-5m on a CB? He must have signed 4 or 5 of our most expensive signings ever during the last year.Yeah EMC would have made a big difference.

Not too sure, Collins is in every way a far better keeperThat but Wilson will play

I think it’s a human reaction to Sakamoto and then torp
Not sure haji was fully fit either
Moussa?Maybe, he is missing Joy.......did she forget to send him a Valentines card. Never easy to be optimistic when we play Preston, but I will never forget Manset's 96 minute equaliser against them, with a young Callum Wilson scoring twice in a 4 - 4 draw.
Lost one game at home all seasonGot a feeling we'll lose to these......again
