Hates a tackle?
Hates a tackle?sheaf is just a poor player i think. He doesn’t have one attribute that stands out as better than others. Poor passing, poor positioning, can’t shoot, hates a tackle, takes the easy option every time
Just feed the passAll is forgiven Ephron
I agreed with you on the way Robins was disposed of. I also had my worries about Lampard. But you must be a pessimistic type of person not to be lifted by the game yesterday. Can't remember the last time we were so solid at the back. How many shots did they have on target? We could have easily got 3 or more. We won with a swagger. This was away to a side unbeaten in 9.Is this new effervescent optimism available to buy on Amazon and how much is it a bottle?
Let's see where we are and how we are doing after Lampard has had 10 or so games on charge.
Hope he's a big success, but let's wait and see.

You need to let go of the past. Enjoy the journey. The good feeling I used to have is back. If you offered me 4 points from the last 2 games I would have snatched your hand off. The improvement is clear to see. First game I've really enjoyed for ages.
This division is so tight after the top 3 places because of teams being inconsistent I wouldn't be surprised if we were in the top 6 by mid January. And if we can strengthen a little in January anything is possible.
It wasn't just the performance. Most shots against were from distance that bothered the roof of the stand more than Collins. A good solid defence like we haven't seen for ages. We all know this team has goals in it. If it wasn't for our sloppy defence we would already be in contention for the top 6.I am anything but a pessimist.
I didn't see the game yesterday. Obviously delighted we won, but we have been here before. Starts off really well and then tapers off, when a new manager comes in.
So, let's just give it time and see what happens.
We do need to strengthen in January. Some astute signings and we'll be fine.
Above average though14 shots today with only 3 on target is pretty poor from us
Hope so.It wasn't just the performance. Most shots against were from distance that bothered the roof of the stand more than Collins. A good solid defence like we haven't seen for ages.

I got a good feeling about Lampard yesterday. You could see that he enjoyed the interaction with us. The place was buzzing.
The only way is up.
Well, yeah. Hope he maintains it.There were a few things i took from yesterdays performance.
We won the game with our first half performance. We controlled the ball and the game really well in the first half without creating a lot. This wasn’t very evident until the second half when they really struggled to deal with us and the wind.
Mason-Clark was very good, he pushed forward and generally had 2 men in front of him every time so didnt just go at them but found the spare man , usually Rudoni 1st half, for them to push on too.
It was clearly a four on Collins. Could he have done better and been stronger? Yes. But was still a foul.
when Eccles came on we looked far more fluid in midfiled and he helped us up the tempo with our passing and moving forward.
Finally, i have come to see why we needed a change in manager after today. I was a staunch supporter of Robins and he still had credit in the bank for me but the interaction of the players and Lampard at the end showed that something probably wasnt right towards the end of Robins reign.
I know its out first win for a bit but Lampard seemed to be a lot closer with the players which helps with trust and confidence going forwards.
It was the one thing you noticed with vivash our players and opponents players for that matterWell, yeah. Hope he maintains it.
We'll have to see if it continues if we say lose 2 or 3 on the trot.
It's always good to see a connection between manager and players isn't it
He’s still fucking shit, yes he scored, so does a smack head with a tenner. Your wife must be ugly as fuck if you’re that easily pleased.
2 Goals by December for £5Million and you’re happy? Should we put the ashtray on your missus back or arse? #bike
All dayer in the City ArmsWow Earlsdon had a shocker last night didn’t he
We made two like-for-like subs on 60 minutes - they were the right changes imo, but it’s the type of stuff that Robins would get slated for!How nice is it to have someone making proactive tactical changes.
I loved MR and he is still the king but his massive flaw his inability to change the game plan mid game or bring on the right substitute.
Wow Earlsdon had a shocker last night didn’t he
Yes i thought that wonder if it’s just confidence. Hopefully Frank will get him to take the handbrake offEMC seems strangely hesitant in his natural position. Glad for him to have scored but he’s a huge downgrade on Wright.
If signing Kitching is one of your major issues, I've got bad news about Robins mate.I was probably a bit harsh in my responses but everytime any questions are put to our recruitment, the usuals round up and take it personally or tell you to shut up… on a forum.
I hope EMC, Kitching etc come good… but for me it’s staggering at how much money has been spent on players that are 25 years old and don’t look ready for the Championship. I hope I’m wrong long term but in the short term I think they’re money badly spent.
EMC had a decent game yesterday but two decent games by December isn’t good enough IMO but that seems to cause big personal offence.
Since the summer the direction of the club has pissed me off and the treatment of Robins was staggeringly bad.
I don’t rate our owner, (I think he’s a massive **** in fact), recruitment, coaches and I like Lampard but I never wanted him over Robins, so I guess I always will be negative in some eyes.
I apologise, I shouldn’t have been so creative in my replies and just left it at fuck off.
Lots of people completely missed this. Some posters saying the first half we weren’t very good.We won the game with our first half performance.

You know the point I’m making, EMC, Asante, Kitching etc, noticeable money spent on 25 year olds that don’t look ready or good enough IMO.

I think EMC will be really good, the other 2 I want to see how they get on under Lampard but they both look over priced and they were both players Robins chased tbf.You know the point I’m making, EMC, Asante, Kitching etc, noticeable money spent on 25 year olds that don’t look ready or good enough IMO.
I think you are wrong on EMC & the owner.I was probably a bit harsh in my responses but everytime any questions are put to our recruitment, the usuals round up and take it personally or tell you to shut up… on a forum.

Maybe this one for KitchingPlayers in needs of a song:
EMC (logical song by supertramp)
Rudi (Ruby by kaiser cheifs)
Bassette (bye bye bye by NSYNC)
New song for players already with one:
Lati (Latibeaudiere we’ll just call you joel)
Torp (more lyrics to his song rather than the original songs)
Thomas and Kitching (need their own songs)
I think you are wrong on EMC & the owner.
But we'll done for apologising, that is good form.
Your dad maybe should of had a wank instead of producing you?
And that’s fine, it’s opinions. Id have took a punt on EMC for £500K but he was built up with trying to get him in January and I’ve been really disappointed.
I am apologising for any offence I caused yesterday.
You were almost at Boosh level of trolling and wind-up
Well done apologising, we all have different expectations of our players, but we all still want the team to do well.
Those words or the variation below could be sung to the Just sold my car jingle.Just feed the pass
