At least the analysis is based in reality. Nothing worse than a manager making out all is ok after a shit performance.
we had this problem against Watford here early on in the season in the crazy game - and at the time, MR said we need to learn how to play against a strong high press…
That was 3rd (?) home game of the season way back in September.
have we learned anything?
Yeah probably right
Doug king needs to splash the cash again in the summer to add to a decent core
When is there good news off the pitch? does robins sound happy? was he happy with January window? we was told start of the month not to expect incomings
everything I hear is from people close to the club. if you don’t like what you hear and you believe it’s bad news then don’t blame me. nothing to enjoy from relaying it. isn’t that why this forum exists?
January showed how little off the field activity occurred. has robins complained since? Yes on numerous occasions
We don't have a midfield and now down have a RW.
If Torp isn't fully fit for Friday, I'd not really have a clue what formation and side to play.
You're a fucking idiot , just fuck off
To prove negligence you need evidence someone didn’t take action (I’m only half serious here)
You’ve got an axe to grind and have had one ever since the prices for corporate went up. Piss off
Just listened to Robins. Sounded down, rather than angry.
One thing that stuck out was when the game was compared to Stoke last year.
He said this was way worse.
The thing that stuck out was that he said, when asked about us bouncing back like last year, "yeah, but we were good defensively" - basically saying we are shit at the back this year. Worrying for that kind of admission....

He does. But what’s happening now is reminiscent of those FM tactics you download with the intensity set to super high resulting in good results for a while before the squad crashes and burns with fatigue.
lol an axe to grind?
please enlighten me on the great January window we had and how our squad has improved?
robins foresee this happening and wasn’t backed. somehow that’s my fault is it? you must live on mars if you don’t hear robins repeatly come out about lack of investment in January.
These things happen. I've never understood the 'guaranteed' expectancy on the previous season without retention/reasonable investment.
It doesn't help the defence including keeper get changed every other game
Go and watch some planes you dull c**t
yes I guessed, and also not necessarily, but in any event I think we are in agreement the standard of officiating in our league has been variable at best….
We’re not as good defensively this year. If Wilson can win the golden glove, that’s telling.
We will go back to 3-4-1-2 if Saka is out for the rest of the season and I’m here for it to be fair.
At 3-0, the game was last us today but the second half was shit. I wish I met my mates at HT rather than after 85m.
Well this is the thing
Doug king is making the demands on top six x amount of times
robins needed those couple of additions and we didn’t get them
I have no doubt he’s pissed off, again you don’t need to be ITK to work that out. It’s true we really needed more depth but it’s also true he hasn’t helped himself with recruitment aimed at a 5-3-2 system that had to be ditched as we were heading for a relegation battle had it not been changed up.
Tbh mate I couldn't give a shit about the off the field politics you have with them at the helm.
What I don't like is you coming on here whilst sakamoto is still in hospital and MR hadn't even come out in the press at the time, and telling us all he's shattered his pelvis and out for 6 months. Even if it's true, have some respect for the individuals involved and stop leaking info out from the club you supposedly support just to then turn it into an attack at the chairman
Of course he doesn’t sound happy, just lost 3-0.
What do you expect him to do? Come on CWR and start doing his Frank Spencer impression?
Yet the majority on here were happy with a season of transition,which this still is , and a midtable finish
I knew it. We've got ourselves a pitch pooer!No, just I have previous for this kind of stuff
so I have a an axe to grind but you agree robins is pissed off. you contracting yourself there
