Good result and important the midfield are chipping in with goals. Keeps us firmly in the mix and not just for the top six.... the top two are within range

Good you? Thought the crowd were great getting behind the team and it was a factor in the second half. Your thoughts?
Honestly very quiet 1st half picked up a bit after the second goal but in general poor.

What a great squad Robins is putting together. The squad has depth and spirit looks great again. Eccles and DD were impressive and youth system serving us well. So much to look forward to this season. Nice work MR...... Let's All Sing Together

I bet we would have lost this at the Ricoh aswell...

we wouldn’t have been able to play the midfield passing game we did today on that pitch - not a hope in hell

Struggling with this a little. We’re unbeaten in 7 in all competitions. Given the injuries and suspensions, that’s a great return. Maybe not playing the best in all those games, but that’s different to a poor run.
We were 19th in the form league (last 6 games) before we kicked off today, only 4 teams had picked up fewer points than us, and most of them are in the bottom 6 in the table.

I sit on the right hand side. Is there like a block 15 style singing section?
I didn't know you were judging it on a choir or ultras.

There was plenty of encouragement, there were a few random big bursts of applause. After bakas miss there was one.

Maybe it was just where I sat. There was barely any chanting or songs.

Good for what? Football? Can’t say I’ve looked
Haven't seen it myself but new pitch and new ground staff only a couple of games played on it wont be as bad as last year no matter how much you hope it is.

I will suggest he PMs you and you can arrange to meet up and you can tell him to his face what you think.
Will see how brave you are then !!!!

To be honest Neal I’m not sure I subscribe to the view that you can’t say it was an awful miss, I’m sure Bakayoko knows it himself and thankfully Walsh popped up with a cracking goal to save this forum from going into meltdown

I agree it was a terrible miss and should 100% have been a goal.
My point is that slagging off the players on here is counter productive. The majority of them read SBT and they are all sensitive about their performances. You can argue that they get paid to take the flack but end of the day they are human.
Many will disagree but that is my opinion and based on knowing a number of players at Cov and other clubs

The ricoh, especially in block 14/15/16and 17 had pretty good atmosphere over the last 2 seasons..

It would have been Alot louder than St Andrews today, to think anything else is just wrong and suggests a severe case of block 20 syndrome

If you sat on the opposite side it was dead. No noise generated at all on average

That goes against what was said by away supporters who visited over the last couple of seasons on social media.

I agree it hasn't always been good at the ricoh, but was much improved over the last 2 seasons

Yeah definitely I agree with that. If you have hundreds of people critiquing your profession on social media and forums it’d be hard to not have a look.

I can’t remember who it was now but an ex pro when he was playing made an account on his clubs forum and started posting loads of positive stuff about him as he was that insecure
