Think Palmer leaving without been replaced has really upped the pressure on Robins.

Personally I think it was the final straw for me when there are clear issues so far this season with drive from midfield. To then let the one player who has brought that spark leave makes it very difficult.

Last time I felt like this was Hereford away. Why youve sold McSheffrey chant

To be clear: Are you sack Robins?

Would I sack Robins? Based on his contribution over the past few seasons no, but purely based on performances this season and the lacklustre performances would be telling him things need to improve the next 5 matches or, yes, he is sacked. Players don't seem interested, they are either not good enough, don't understand the system or he has lost the dressing room, ultimately if they aren't good enough go back to basics but these are the core of the team from the last couple of years. It therefore has to be the system doesn't suit square pegs in round holes or he has lost the dressing room. The first he can change and if he doesn't is responsible, the second is he may as well walk now

Robins has to stop trying to play all his forwards and stick to the system. Wright plays left for 90 minutes. If that means Mason-Clark doesn’t play so be it.

He looked really good on the left. His actual position. Just glad for the two weeks on the training pitch. I'm sure things will click

He’s not a patch on wright. He never gets his head up and his touch is not great

You only have to look at the way the Norwich manager has them playing compared to us.
They moved the ball quickly, weren’t afraid to play out from the back (admittedly helped by our inability to take advantage when they did make mistakes), and had a plan.
We didn’t know what we were doing, and this is with a squad largely established from last season.
Robins is now being exposed as tactically weak, exposed by Vivash going - I personally think it is time for a change - time runs out for all managers at some point.
This season has already gone due to our complete lack of midfield - Robins has to take some responsibility for allowing such poor recruitment, especially when we clearly had funds but bought in the wrong positions.

Hard to disagree with any of that.

recruitment has been woeful

He'll blame the recruitment.

The man dragged us through the leagues with some of the most neglectful owners doing their best to scupper him, all the way. Playoff final and a FA cup semi the last two years. Bet he'd be delighted that renowned bed wetter Matt Smith gives him until Christmas 👍
Appreciate that, but he’s had very good coaches alongside him

Problem is we're playing with

MvE - Lati - Binks - Bidwell
Torp - Rudoni - Eccles

MvE is the only one that is consistently good, the two centre backs are ranked 3 & 4 out of the 4 we have, bidwell has regressed.

Torp hasn't yet developed into the player that we thought he'd be, Rudoni hasn't lit anything up and Eccles is up and down.

Also 6 of that 7 are players that were here last year and participated in us being shite towards the end of last season.

Our recruitment has been too focussed on one end of the pitch and whoever is responsible for that will be on the hot seat if things don't improve.

It's irrelevant, if we're struggling at Christmas including the end of last season you're looking at 30-35 games of poor form.
