They also did the crazy idea of not randomly punting the ball right from kick off and having a bit of a dribble. Should've scored from it in the 2nd half and the ease with which they created opportunities in the final third should be a big lesson. Don't get me wrong defensively they were horrendous and their keeper's kicking was even worse than Burge's but going forward it was painful how much more effective they were.

They should have scored a couple, they kept opening our defence up easily. Akinde tried a long shot but could have run it for a one on one

None of what they did is rocket science, it's just using a bit of common sense. Even if we win the random punt from kick off there's hardly anyone else up to support it and I don't remember us ever threatening anything out of it. Second half today Barnet kick off, run at us and nearly score. Same again when attacking, they just knew where each other would be and passed accurately. Only let down by poor finishing.
Time and time again we gave possession away under no pressure, or stood still waiting to be picked out by wonder passes. People criticised Haynes on throw ins but all of our players were statues marked by 1 or 2 men each, who's he meant to throw it to? What are we doing on the training ground every week?

I'm talking about before the substitution and it was probably the fact that he offered nothing in the second half that actually got him substituted.
He disappeared a bit and then got subbed.

Yeah, bad choice. No idea why he did that.

Yes funny how the team play shit yet it was only Haynes who gets it most of the time, just like the best shot of the game that should have put a hole in the top of the net was saved by Burge but he is shit because he put a few kicks into touch.
All our outfield players couldn't pass to a team mate from 5 yards but that' ok because they are under pressure.........

If you don't understand the question he may have to reassess that down to a 2 and a half.

Have to say I thought that Haynes was particularly poor in a game where none of our players excelled.

You spout absolute delusional crap
You think you are clever and correct about everything
Your views are actually boring as you never put forward anything , you are like the SNP crotising everyone rather than offering a solution
It’s my opinion
Clueless

I have never said that it shouldn't be the expectation. It is my own expectation that we'll have a go. What I'm saying is that it's no foregone conclusion and very difficult.

Don't think anyone expected us to win every game but at the same time expected more than the hope of scrambling into 7th.

Cue most people you have ever met telling you they've been to every home game this season and most aways too, despite looking confused when you say "do you know who Chris Stokes is?"

Well Robins certainly did, he said we are challenging for promotion. All teams have injuries so you cannot blame that. But you can blame Robins for picking 6 defensive players at home and players out of position, Bayliss for example.

Buzzing with the win, pitch is really not helping anyone at the moment. It makes every game a scrap and a grind.
Robins doing a great job, will be a good achievement if we can make play offs considering our best player and marquee summer signing both ended up with season ending injuries early on.
