I thought Jamie Allen was excellent. Reminds me of Jay Tabb except classier

Winny the Bish · Dec 14, 2019

That was fucking dreadful. Take the lead, get scared and stop playing our normal game, concede. Rinse and fucking repeat.

How has Robins not sorted this out yet!?

mark82 · Dec 14, 2019

We've now won one of our last 5 league games. 2 of our last 10 league games. Very, very poor form. Big changes needed in January otherwise I suspect we'll drop away.

I put this defeat firmly down to Robins, I'm getting fucking tired of this. No league away wins is just not good enough.

I heard that Robins brings loads of pencils onto the bus because he loves to draw away from home.

Can’t

That is so depressing.

That’s now 11 league away games without a win. Mostly different personnel from last season so Robins needs to have a rethink about we’re setting up away.

Setting up just outside our box to invite pressure, even when it went to 1-1 we were holding on for a draw

With a little help from Robins

stupot07 · Dec 14, 2019

Shite. More points thrown away. Not good enough in the final third, we overplay and our crossing is abysmal. The keeper didn't have a save to make.

We can't defend set pieces.

Interesting stats on ifollow

One shot on target the whole game so how could we hope to score more than one?

Porkchophill · Dec 14, 2019

Can’t kill games off , then we allow the officials to become a factor

We lost

Paxman II · Dec 14, 2019

Really think we gave this away in the second half. We did not play to our strengths. It must though be said Allen looked tired second half and he needs to get match fit. But we should have burried this game long before. McCallum did look like he needs resting. A disappointing day all in all. Opportunity lost. Hopefully the players wil be angry with themselves and with Godden fit and Allen able to do more than 60 minutes we will get back on the horse quickly.

JulianDarbyFTW · Dec 14, 2019

Two ways to look at this season so far:

1) we've only lost 3 in 20
2) we've only won 7 in 20

I see this season as setting the platform for next, so I'm not expecting promotion, but it looks like we need to do something differently, and do it soon, or this season will just peter out.

Godden is looking like this years chaplin (Panic signing)

Christ he played half hour unfit up front on his own with no service. I imagine he would have got a five minute run out at the end but for Max’s injury. Also that “panic signing” Chaplin scores a hat trick in the division above today. Have some patience man.

Magwitch · Dec 14, 2019

Midfield poor today over run especially second half think we are better with Westbrook, Walsh and Allen to similar.

Sky_Blue_Dreamer · Dec 14, 2019

That's incredibly disappointing and as much as I like MR it shows his mindset, especially away from home. After taking the lead and into the second half he was playing not to concede rather than increase the lead, and not only does it cost us a win we end up losing.

Certainly not helped with having to make the change up front, which seemed to set us back, but the ref once again had a terrible game. How he's doesn't send their player off for a second yellow then book Walsh for almost the same thing and then not book another Shrews player shortly after for another foul is just terrible.

People could see players like Shipley starting to struggle but MR didn't change it.

It's not so much the loss, but the manner of the loss again/.Had we continued playing that game with an attacking mindset we don't lose it.

Yes but his intention was to draw you fucking drip.

SlowerThanPlatt · Dec 14, 2019

Since 5-4 at Sunderland:

Pompey 2-1 L
Doncaster 2-0 L
Bolton 0-0 D
Pompey 3-3 D
Oxford 3-3 D
Burton 0-0 D
Rotherham 4-0 L
MK Dons 0-0 D
Peterborough 2-2 D
Sunderland 1-1 D
Shrewsbury 2-1 L

CovUpNorth · Dec 14, 2019

Playing 1 up front at Ipswich makes sense but not against Shrewsbury, a much poorer side than us. But Robins not changing it when Shrewsbury took hold of the game is idiotic. Stop being so negative and stubborn.

Dissapointed with o hare today

We have to start scoring more

Can we all not ask where mccallum was for the player at the back post? O’Hare going down to easy aswell in the build up

It was a counter attack so you can’t really blame a wing back imo for not being back there - there were 3 city players in the box ball watching. One of your 3 centre half’s got to be covering there

Evo1883 · Dec 14, 2019

We got that second half completely wrong, and it seemed like he tried to soak pressure and counter... Never worked, too many sloppy passes, substitutions too late... Oh well

peace ndlovu · Dec 14, 2019

Regardless of how questionable Robin’s judgement was today or how inept some of the players were:
There was a stonewall red card that wasn’t given + Their equalizer came after a foul on Marosi + Their winner was after they broke after a foul not given to us = Referee was a c**t
We weren’t great but they were no better and dirty fuckers. Hate to lose when it’s more about referee ineptitude than performance

We played a back 4 today.

He was poor today, but he was played in the wrong position, he is no good on the right.

mark82 · Dec 14, 2019

Are we better than last year? I'm not so sure.

SkyblueTexan · Dec 14, 2019

After 11 away games and having the lead beyond the hour mark, we cannot keep blaming the refs for our mistakes or finding other excuses for our lack of execution away from home. We should have subbed players and kept the lead or increased it. This team is going nowhere if it cannot win away from home.

Possibly because that's what he's telling them to do? Once we score we get defensive and try to hold onto the lead.

The league was tougher last season I feel flattering our position in the league this season

cc84cov · Dec 14, 2019

That was a utter disgrace from staff and players toda we shit ourselves by their approach m
Liam kelly probably the worst I’ve seen him

FUCKING LIVID

No. We're doing about the same in a worse league. Disguising it by passing it around a lot though so it looks like we're playing well.

I agree on Kelly, got caught in possession so many times.

SlowerThanPlatt · Dec 14, 2019

Our next away game is Wycombe. Some seemed to think they wouldn’t last but they won again today, 7 points clear of second and 12 clear of us.

SkyBlueDom26 · Dec 14, 2019

Bishop scored 2 again for Accrington! WHY DIDNT WE FUCKING SIGN HIM
