I know i'll get lynched for saying this but he's not the man to take us forward.

He's proven time and time again this season that he's incapable of switching to a plan B.

He makes laughable substitutions far far too late in games to have any impact. Why?

He can't fix the simple things that cost us points and he seems to have zero learning agility.

He's set up defensively against shit teams, he constantly plays players out of position (even after when he's forced to play them in position they have a much better game).

He refuses to drop shit players like Burge and Haynes.

Even if we by the grace of god fluke it through the playoffs (if we make it) and get promoted, I still don't think he's the man to take us forwards. If countless people on a football forum can see things, how can't he when he's paid (with our ticket money) to focus on nothing but the football team?

I love that bit about how countless people on football forums (THE EXPERTS) can see things that Robins (ex Man Utd, Norwich, Leicester, England U-21, Man City, Panionos) can't

I can see a lot more than Robins. The view from the dugout is shite.

Disagree. Worth another shot at building a squad. We’ve been unlucky with injuries to creative players and it’s a new league and we’ve done better than any relegated team.

It’s not up to our expectations but when is it ever? I think it’s a little arrogant to assume we should go straight back up.

If there was someone obviously better or if we weren’t anywhere close to playoffs I’d agree, but there’s still a likelihood however small that we are still going up this year. Under those circumstances talk of sacking the manager is premature IMHO.
Just re-read this thread, it's easy to forget how despondent we were following the Lincoln game, yet 2 games later we were in the playoffs, and 3 games after that, promoted. It just proves how quickly things can change.
 
Robins knows the club and he knows the financial state of it and he works well with what he has, young players want to play for him and he seems to be trying to be positive and build something with limited resources.

I think he has showed balls at times this season for example subbing the sub Bakayoko at Blackpool when he was dyer, I think we need to be talking positively and getting behind the lads as let’s be fair if we get promotion none of us were expecting to this year anyway and it would be a massive bonus and if were honest it’s probably a season to soon as 3 of our starting players are on loan and they will more than likely not be with us next year, also the stadium issue which is still up in the air.
Yes robins makes questionable subs yes he sometimes doesn’t have a plan B, but he’s just won’t the most games for the club in 20 years and the team looks solid and they look like they actually like playing together.

But yeah just sack him at the end of the year with no suggestions who to bring in...

Saving this up for a rainy day are we? I bow to your supreme point scoring and hope that you thinking that you’re right makes your Christmas that little bit extra special. For the record we’re still not relegated or promoted yet this season.

And even if things are going badly at the moment, it doesn't validate posting this in April the gobshite!

The hilarious thing about your response here is that is in fact exactly what you did about 6 months after the thread was started. Does it not feel so nice? Are you throwing your ickle rattle out the pram?

Cheer up, have a merry Christmas, and think maybe you could’ve came back with a “haha you got me” and we both would’ve laughed it off. No one likes a hindsight executioner...which is exactly what I was trying to prove

You’ve sat on a comment for 6 months before dredging it up to say I told you so. I’m glad it’s festered with you for so long. You really are the gift that keeps giving.

Not sure if you’ve missed the point entirely...the thread was started in April and you dragged it up months later to do exactly that...

Robins needs to do something to get the fans back on side...over to you Squeaky
I'd have taken Mid-Table in L1 at Xmas (2018) back in April, wouldn't you?

Perhaps the "fans" should just get behind the team and MR instead of fuckin moaning?!

Positive thinking/attitude is the way to go from fans.

Ha, you have to smile.

In the last few days we've had 'sell Bayliss' 'send Chaplin back' and 'sack Robins'.

Oh and 'we're going to be in a relegation dogfight'.

Merry Christmas!

Fair enough as I've missed a few games in Oct and Dec (Hols), so not seen how bad/good we've been playing, however, I still stand by what I said, that I would have taken Mid-Table in L1 at Xmas (even at the end of this season too).

Definitely take mid table but all fans in general like to see goals and sadly thats not the case atm
