Id say so yes not wanted in the squad anymore
Yep get that bit. So it’s exactly the same then?
Potentially, but during the games in Jan/Dec when fans had no knowledge of definite Premier League interest his ratings were still consistently average. It's an interesting point about biases though as you could flip that on its head and argue that during that period some ratings were potentially given generously due to McCallum's age and inexperience.
Mcallum ratings will subliminally go down to some as he’s now perceived as a premier league player by some who will scrutinise more
Conversely some players will perform adequately and as it’s above expectation they get higher
If the guy who say next to me last night rated he’d have given O Hare a 4 or 5 as he didn’t like him primarily as he’s a Villa player I suspect
#taxiforrobins #taxiformason #moronMason I expect will be gone in the summer
Disagree thought he was fine. They closed the backs down effectively but he still covered the ground and didn’t misplace many passes
The Norwich factor is sub conscious so you probably are guilty of it but unaware

Perhaps focus on supporting the lads on the pitch over the next vital games vs. idle speculation of who you want shipped out.
We disagree on that then.
It definitely isn’t a factor, but interesting to note you think you know more about the way I think than I do.
I know you love finding old posts, so if you look back through I've never actually rated him as highly as others, so maybe if there is a bias going on its just based on my opinion of his ability as opposed to your theory.
unlikely in my view
Think a lot of us were surprised.Some crazy people about I thought O’Hare did really well last night and covered a lot of ground. I was stunned when mom was given to Godden (well I think it was).
And what is that based on?
Surprised you see it this way G,I felt he was locked down quick etc but his passing was off & positional awareness was worrying at times & I’ve always said I rated him welL above mason,it’s prob 1-2 average games they all have them dips I’m sure he will come back to the level he’s set himself but I do feel Southend we could give mason or Giles a run.Disagree thought he was fine. They closed the backs down effectively but he still covered the ground and didn’t misplace many passes
The Norwich factor is sub conscious so you probably are guilty of it but unaware
He was poor last night
Im prettt sure godden has been poor but dint see any conspiracy theories about him
Shut the fuck up and enjoy the season you miserable sods
He isn't better than him defensivelyMason is better than Sam defensively for sure.
He's not a great wing back though... And that's why he isn't playing.
I rate him, and really feel for him tbh
For the reason that I’ve stated and the fact his performance yesterday was as good as previous ones
So I’ve got unconscious bias re his move because you think he played well yesterday?
Again, not being provocative, just trying to understand your rationale.
Thanks MarkSam will need a rest very soon
It's risky to overplay young players as they don't have the resilience while their bodies are still developing
And as we have options it makes sense to give the lad the odd break
The only question is who will Robins use to replace him
It's likely to be Giles based on the manager's comments after his surprise signing late on deadline day
He isn't better than him defensively
I've said before I'd like to be £1 behind Mark RobinsThanks Mark
Also I’ll add McCallum is used to the system probably Southend is a good game to let Giles play
There was a post on facebook that said O'Hare's head injury was karma for missing the open goal against Birmingham.
Any dip in performance, any misplaced pass is pounced upon. Nasty, spiteful and unnecessary.
Let the manager manage.
I didn't think McCallum was poor with what he did, but it was what he didn't do I thought was noticeable. Didn't get forward nearly as often in the last 2 games as he had been doing previously and it has a massive impact in that formation. I don't think it was the quality of winger he was up against either as he did exactly the same against Bolton.Not seen his dip people are looking for stuff that’s not there
He was probably trying to be more aware of his defensive role or tired. Be interesting if Giles gets some playtime these next two gamesI didn't think McCallum was poor with what he did, but it was what he didn't do I thought was noticeable.
