We need a manager who can coach and bring on the kids.
We need fans who say fuck it, we are going to enjoy it whatrever...even if it means just appreciating the opposition.
Fans are the twelfth player on the pitch....so how good are you lot?

You can carve stats up as you like. We've had a mediocre start to this season. I won't judge Mowbray until the end of this season and even then, it's on the basis of 'are we moving forward' - I think the signings of the likes of Jones and Turnbull (and hopefully Sordell proves a hit in the end, it's still early days) are thinking beyond this season which is what the club really really needs. If we don't go up this season, hopefully we retain the nucleus of a young side to mount a genuine challenge next season. This is a hard sell to fans, but, we must think a bit longer term. Burton, for example, didn't just magically turn into a promotion winning team, it was carefully built over seasons, with a fairly settled squad and avoiding changing managers apart from where theres were poached!
Cheers Don,this could be a new beginning for us.Word for word completely agree
When has there ever been building from season to season while SISU have been owners? We all know that at the end of every season, the loanees go back, a couple of dissatisfied players leave and our best talent is poached. Then we start re-building again. There is no continuity and I cannot forsee this cycle being broken.<snip> hopefully we retain the nucleus of a young side to mount a genuine challenge next season.

To be fair Robins didn't do too badly in terms of Inheriting a division three team
- Murphy
- Hussey
- Willis
- Baker
- Jennings
- Kilbane
- McSheffrey
- McDonald
- Elliott
- Christie
- Mcgoldrick
That team apart from 3 or 4 players is shite.
2-3 were poor at this level the rest were or are still quite good at this level
So you had that plus DMC on fire
No most were shite and also a lot of them were frozen out by robins. Sheffield United are experiencing how shite one of them is now. Jennings was crap, Elliot awful, McDonald crap, kilbane retired, macsheffrey past it and oddly your team he inherited has no centre halves.
Oh dear.
Luckily it wasn't a team it was a just a list of reasonable players that Robins inherited.
Otherwise it really would have been all out attack
oh dear
You said Willis. He played one game. You didn't mention the two centre halves he inherited - why?
Hussey I think made 2 appearances for the club after he took over.
By the middle of the season only Murphy played of the team that played the first game - the team was totally changed. That's because the team was shite. Why mention players who never even played? I don't get it. It's almost as if you are researching rather than speaking as a genuine fan.
You are not really getting the bit about listing the decent players he inherited are you.
Regarding Hussey If Robins didn't pick him that doesn't mean he isn't a decent player at this level.
DMC returned because he was too good.
Baker has proved his worth at this level well and truely
As did McDonald with his 1 in 2 goal ratio at this level
Murphy was class at this level
McSheffrey did a job at this level
Christie was better than this level
Willis was young put still quality even at that age
Jennings was solid at this level
The only ones that you could possibly debate from that list are Kilbane and Elliot
Far from what you said 'apart from Mcgoldrick a basket case'
Which just clearly as usual isn't true
To be fair Robins didn't do too badly in terms of Inheriting a division three team
- Murphy GOOD
- Hussey CRAP
- Willis Had barely played a game when Robins joined
- Baker GOOD
- Jennings CRAP
- Kilbane CRAP
- McSheffrey CRAP
- McDonald CRAP
- Elliott CRAP
- Christie GOOD
- Mcgoldrick GOOD
