Game too far for us - because no investment from SISU; otherwise could have rotated players; Cardiff played Saturday also and looked fresher and fitter than us
Really Tired - no excuse see above argument
They have players available - no excuse see above argument
We started off the game hoping we would hold on until we could make changes - that was the game plan? who did you plan to bring on to make a difference?
Looked flat - looked like shit
We have to be better defensively - this I agree with
Conceded poor goals - well taken goals partly due to our poor defending
We go again - okay I was not expecting to forfeit the next match
Should have played in December - I know, but they used the COVID card
OHare is trying to get out of the way so looks like a dive - whatever
Second is penalty, ref maybe influenced by first one - cannot be relying on refs to give penalties
No complaints about the result - me neither
Performance as could as we could have got - performance sucked
Our bench was ok - lol
we need to get more players fit - we need more players period
Miles better than last year - but we might end up with the same point total as last year. Then what would you say?
Me neither ROBINS OUTSame old shit from Robins I’m afraid. I genuinely wouldn’t be arsed if he fucked off at the end of the season.
3 poo's and 3 ROF's so far, what's the record?Same old shit from Robins I’m afraid. I genuinely wouldn’t be arsed if he fucked off at the end of the season.
This would be my conversation with MR
Every other team plays this schedule too. He used it last season when we were allowed 5 subs and he made 0 every time.I really hate the ‘oooh we’re so tired’ excuse. They are professional athletes. It’s not like they’re playing a game every day for god’s sake.

Someone said the same to me a few years back and it made me look at the tiredness issue in a new light.Exactly. They’re pro athletes up against other pro athletes. Small changes in output make a big difference. Take 2mph off an F1 car and it’s still fast but it won’t win races (maybe, I have no fucking clue about F1).
We have used the least amount of players and made second least number of subs in game because we don’t have a full squad for this level. That’s not the players fault, we’re asking them to do more than any other set of players in the league.

Gyokeres at 98% v 100% Aiden Flint is a bigger difference than Shmmee at 98% v 100% Sheafisgod.
the reasoning used is frustrating becuase he has the likes of Jones and Tavares on the bench presumably at 100% and not even giving them 10 minutes when Gyokeres is clearly shattered
Clearly Gyok at 98% is better than Tav at 100%. What we should have in the squad is someone who is as good as Gyok at 100% as he is at 98%. But that goes back to lack of investment and i cant be asked for that again...Someone said the same to me a few years back and it made me look at the tiredness issue in a new light.

That's what happens when you spend the least money in this league it catches up with you.Exactly. They’re pro athletes up against other pro athletes. Small changes in output make a big difference.

He thinks Shipley is though and that waghorn is going to be a threat.Because he doesn't think they're good enough.
I was using the 98% figure to highlight the differences between pro-athletes and normal people.Clearly Gyok at 98% is better than Tav at 100%. What we should have in the squad is someone who is as good as Gyok at 100% as he is at 98%. But that goes back to lack of investment and i cant be asked for that again...

I get your point but dont think you are taking into account the level of player enough. Personally think if Tav played at this level he would be anonymous and woudnt get a kick. But understand that until we give him a go we wont knowI was using the 98% figure to highlight the differences between pro-athletes and normal people.
there are times that Gyokeres should be brought off if it just isn’t working, and it’s clear he’s nothing less for that game - he needs a rest. Yes Tavares isn’t at that level but at least giving him a run out and change things up is worth a go.
of course your investment point is somewhat correct - but we let Walker go and a large sum of money was directed by Robins at Waghorn.
Tavares was probably a bad example, we let Walker go, goes hand in hand with the investment point. Ultimately we seem to be running Gyokeres into the ground, and all we have left is Tavares. Last 10 - literally no reason not to give it a go. Is he likely to do something to jump ahead of Gyokeres - no. But it gives Gyokeres a slither more of recovery timeI get your point but dont think you are taking into account the level of player enough.

Get your point. Dont think Walker shouldve been let go really. But he was let go to bring in a permanent LWB who despite a lot of peoples opinions i think will come good. Im just frustrated that we had to let Walker go to enable that move.Tavares was probably a bad example, we let Walker go, goes hand in hand with the investment point.

Tiredness is a really poor excuse we’ve played the least amount of games in this league. It’s not as though he doesn’t know you play 46 games. We’re not carrying loads of injuries or no more than any other club. If he’s of the opinion Jones and Tavares aren’t up to it which seems to be his view given he won’t play then then why not let them go out in January?Game too far for us

It’s a boring excuse also I’m sick of hearing it,wasted a sub starting Shipley on sod it just throw Tavares on see what happens I bet he’s the fastest player at the club the kid is lighteningTiredness is a really poor excuse we’ve played the least amount of games in this league.

I said this on another thread. Robins set us up like this in most games last season around December. Think we drew 4 out of 5 games 0-0. The game plan is basically hope to get to an hour at 0-0 and then try and be slightly more purposeful for the last half an hour. It shows a complete lack of ambition and makes the game almost a coin toss. The first XI has zero goal threat in bar Gyökeres.We started off the game hoping we would hold on until we could make changes
Lightning doesn't cut the mustard against teams who sit deep though.It’s a boring excuse also I’m sick of hearing it,wasted a sub starting Shipley on sod it just throw Tavares on see what happens I bet he’s the fastest player at the club the kid is lightening
Yeah fair point. He will stick with Waghorn over Tav though as he has to justify Waghorn being one of the top earners and marquee signingThat's the thing but we are starting with players like Shipley who we know will be anonymous.
If it's the last 10 at 1-0 down then why not bring somebody with pace. What is there to lose? At worst he can at least press and hassle and bring some energy.
What did waghorn do today?
Don’t think anybody is saying he’s going to take the league by storm. Robins is moaning the players are tied, if that is true then it must be the same for other teams given they have played more matches than us. With 10 minutes to go and with no real prospect of threatening the opponent’s defence I can’t see why you wouldn’t throw someone on with some speed it might actually do something.Clutching at straws thinking a kid is going to come on and take the league by storm..lets leave it to Robins he gets updates on what Tavares can and can't do, although his subs again was uninspiring!
