    Saka made a big difference when he played wide right on weds. Get him on and some crosses coming in.

    The biggest problem is we have spent pretty much all our money on a bunch of really really average players. A very big hole for a new manager to get out of. Robins has a lot of responsibility for that.

    I can't see our players being up for this game at all today. They have trouble getting motivated anyway. Plenty of excuses around this one not to stand up and be counted. Maybe Collins if he is played but what's he going to do dive around a bit more, kick it further, lay on the ball for another...

    Can't see anything other than a bad loss here. There are serious problems with this squad's balance and quality and Robin's going isn't going to solve that quickly. But at least play players in position, Saka and MVE together, Wright out on the left and jds left back...

    You're even more stupid than I thought you were. Utterly laughable nonsense.

    OFFICIAL: Mark Robins has been sacked

    Come on. There were masses of problems with selection, formation, motivation, adapting. It's always the one we haven't got that will turn things. That used to be Sheaf until he played....

    OFFICIAL: Mark Robins has been sacked

    Shocking. But probably the right decision. Robins seems to be unsure what to do, what his best team or formation is. He seems unable to motivate the squad and the players aren't playing for him. I was expecting it over the summer. Deadly Doug really is deadly. All the best to Mark for his...

    They broke forward and put Rudoni under pressure. That was the plan sit back and break occasionally. It worked.

    That happens when you are chasing games. Especially at home.

    'Our day' is interesting for this team. What sparks us into playing with tempo? Wright being on it and in the mood playing on the left? Saka playing in front of MVE, cutting in with crosses and shots? They're the only real sparks in the team I think. Otherwise it's reacting to being in the...

    They were defending a lead and could just sit back in numbers. They came with a plan and it worked. We didn't have a plan.

    Lack of motivation is a huge problem with this team. Night game, good crowd, winning run and we start flat as a pancake, so slow and lethargic, clueless as to what the plan is. I'm not sure Robin's quiet brooding moody style helps motivate this group. Imagine Sir Alex in with them...

    Who knows. Robins still seems to not know his best 11 and their best positions.

    Robins got done tactically and the team formation was completely wrong. Saka and MVE came to life when Saka was moved wide right. Torp is a much better no 10 where he can pass and shoot. Wright is much better on the left than down the middle. Rudi isn't a wing back JDS is. Why didn't Sheaf...

    Just play players in their best positions. MVE and Saka both came to life and sparked the team when Saka was moved wide right. Play Wright on the left, he does little down the middle. Rudi isn't a wing back. JDS is. Play Torp no 10 where he can pass and shoot.
