We were winning 2-1 and were under pressure. Wycombe were hammered 4-1 by us. Tranmere were hammered 4-1 by us. We weren't hammered by anyone. The only luck was the missed penalty, everything else was good defending. The context was that it was the start of the second half. They came out flying...

I think it is interesting that the group of people that were saying the one up front formation, which was an indication of Robin’s defensive mindset and which was never going to work, are now claiming that the manager has listened to their advice and changed things to make us more attacking. It...

Gary Gillespie scored a hat trick for Liverpool? Some feat that is for a centre half.

Read the posts. Nothing to do with calls for changes to be made. Everything to do with unfair criticism of Robins. You were calling for him to be sacked two years ago when we were in the play off positions. Despite two years of improvement since, you continue to find fault but seldom if ever...

Lincoln and Tranmere stand out, can’t think of too many others off the top of my head. I can also think of Fleetwood and Ipswich where we came out after half time and immediately turned things in our favour.

Hammered? We were winning 2-1. I think most people felt we needed a change, myself included. The difference between a few posters on here and the majority of City fans, I would think, when we are struggling is to start criticising the manager. Look at the timings of the posts copied in. They are...

Show me the post that called for Baka and O’Hare to come on which is the change Robins made and which ultimately won us the game. I don’t think you will find one.

You're ignoring what I am saying.

Did you credit him during the game? If so fair enough. With regard to your criticism of Robins, when should he have made the change? They were on top from the opening minutes of the second half. Surely any manager worth their salt looks at what is happening, sizes up the situation and makes the...

So people are right to be on Robins back a few minutes into the second half? The point being made is not about the call for changes, it is about the fact that the minute anything is pecieved as being wrong it is down to the manager, Who, according to the four or five posters quoted, is letting...

No. the issue, as usual, is the unfair criticism that Robins gets. He was being given stick a few minutes into the second half of a game which up to that point we had dominated. Yes, he did change things, not like for like (another criticism) and we comfortably won our third game on the bounce...

I read through this thread after getting back from Birkenhead. Presumably most posters would have watched the same game as I did, many of the on Ifollow. They would have seen how we absolutely controlled the first half and that even after Tranmere scored that that control continued for the rest...

Having seen both games I know that we dominated both games.

I think every club will have their numptys.

I was at the Everton game. It was a lot calmer there I think than your experience at Burnley.

It seems unlikely that he is coming, but like you I would be glad to have such a talented player back. As far as I know there were no discipline issues when he was here and apart from his daft, teasing social media broadcasts. There seems to be nothing concrete of any wrong doing. There is...

Excuse me for asking, but don’t you think that with comments like the one above and others that you frequently make about Sunderland fans, that you are being as bad as the numptys on the Sunderland forums and continuing to fuel this ‘rivalry’? They have an average of something like 30k...

Two games ago you would have been mincemeat for making that statement.

I said this to my son on the way back yesterday. At the moment we look the more likely club for promotion. I am well aware that this can and might change. I suppose the increase in wages will be a compensation for him.

No,and I wouldn’t disagree with that.
