For anyone watching the Stoke match, how is it going?

Considering Plymouth are the worst side we've ever played at this level, 0-0 will be disappointing for them at half time.

Most Championship teams are crap this year.
This is why it’s been such a wasted opportunity

It’ll be interesting to see what he does at Stoke.

They look very similar to us

The opening question makes no sense to me, apologies.

It’s clear that any criticism of MR is not taken lightly by some, however the state of the ‘rebuilt’ squad falls squarely in his lap.
I, like many others, feel that he was badly exposed without an able tactician in his ear, and had ran out of ideas without that safety net of quality behind him.

Again, not quite sure about the defensive nature of your reply, as I am a huge fan of MR and probably always will be.
It still makes zero sense to sack Robins, the only argument people have for it is that he was exposed without a suitable assistant... So find a suitable assistant then!?!

Ok, maybe Robins was a part of the failure in setting up an ideal coaching set up after Adi and Dennis went. But if the rumours are that Doug vetoed Robins bringing in an assistant - then he's been set up to fail.

Accept some blame in messing up the coaching structure, but for the love of God don't get rid of a proven, loyal, successful manager of 7+ years! (Especially for a nondescript man like Lampard 🤮).

Have another go at restructuring the coaching set up, which is what we've had to do for a new manager anyway.

Unless Robins was literally being obstropolous and a complete arsehole by refusing to work with any Assistant Manager in the world, then persevere with him, at least until the end of this season. Unless Lampard gets us promoted, this is never going to sit right with a large percentage of our fan base. And Doug's excuses for acting when he did have already been proven utter nonsense. Middlesbrough away was class, it's typical City under Robins we'd have gone up to Sunderland and won after the Derby defeat, and then no one could argue we hadn't turned the corner.

Obafemi must be an incredibly frustrating player to watch if you’re a Plymouth fan

Stoke won 1 in 11 before today , they're on a bad run but mentally just 2 points behind us which surprised me though it was more

Had it on in the background. First half looked awful. Second half Stoke made some chances, but couldn't finish. They certainly weren't pulling up trees, but then we've not exactly had a new manager bounce either!

Plymouth are on a good run?
