Said the same. Forest to go up automatic. Sheffield United through the play offs and Bournemouth to return to the 4th division.

Maatsen improved to a degree 2nd half and put a couple of half decent crosses in. Unfortunately they are few and far between. He's extremely wasteful and often is susceptible to the ball in behind him. He's made me actually appreciate McCallum this season.

Curse of the ACL again it seems

Think he's already been sold to Udinese. I wondered whether Ike Ugbo could be a target again but probably only if Gyökeres was sold.

Standard performance from Maatsen. Two great openings - one in each half - which resulted in absolutely nothing. I don't even get out of my seat when he breaks forward. Possibly the most wasteful player I can remember watching. Defence was very poor. Rose played like he thought we were winning...

Generally I was of the view he wasn't really good enough in one of the attacking midfielder roles. Has been a revelation alongside Hamer one of the defensive midfielder positions in my opinion. Offers something different to Kelly and Sheaf as he carried the ball between the lines. Allows us to...

Sam McCallum back in the starting XI for QPR

Might prove to be wrong but personally I think one of the things we have learnt over the last few weeks is that Rose isn't good enough. Has made at least one mistake in most games. Concentration seems to let him down. Major problem for a defender and I'm not sure it's something you can coach.

Not sure in truth. Gives me some hope we were reportedly after Jamie Paterson and Tom Lawrence last summer. I know these players don't come cheap but it's been clear as day that the lack of goals from midfield has held us back. Desperately need some pace as well.

A couple of decent attacking midfielders who contribute goals could have made a huge difference this season.

Often critical of Robins for not making changes quickly enough. Must admit not sure what changes I'd have made today. Heard people saying he should have brought Sheaf on - not sure for who. The Blackburn changes at half time had a big change on the game and our defence found it tough to deal with.

Ref's are wise to him as well. Like the boy who cried wolf - so when he actually gets fouled like he did on one of the recent games (on the touchline by the keeper) - ref's assume he has dived.

Completely agree. We have a solid enough base but in this system the two attacking midfielders and the wingbacks need to contribute in the goals and assists column. I'm not interested in how many fouls they win or other nonsense stats. Gyökeres doesn't look a natural finisher to me but he's so...

Infuriates me. It is genuinely seems like he would prefer to go down than back himself to stay up and either execute a pass or shot.

To state the obvious - Quality at the top end has been the difference in most games of late. Feel sorry for Gyökeres at times (aside from when he was throwing himself, corkscrewing through the air) - we need to bring in two decent attacking midfielders in the summer with pace and who contribute...

Hamers inswinger is a fantastic delivery but we don't use it. The Todd Kane outswinger to the pen spot is rivalling the Shipley drifted ball to the far back corner of the penalty area we had to ensure for about four seasons for the least threatening delivery in football. I genuinely can only...

Honestly don't see anything in Maatsen. Beyond wasteful at wing back. Looks a fish out of water in the attacking midfielder roles, particularly when he has his back to goal (which is understandable).

The outswinging corner as well infuriates me. I fully expect the Shipley drifted ball out to the back of the penalty area back before long.

As angry as I've been with Robins in a long time. Result entirely as a result of this relentlessly impotent formation. What on earth does he think is going to change!? It really is like he tries to get as many non goal scoring players in the team as possible. Swansea are bottom half for a...

Swansea create problems for themselves in every game they play. Makes it even more crazy that we have been sat in our own half holding hands for 45mins. Crazy not to press these. Robins trademark negative away set up as made them look like world beaters.
