This is where I’m at. We’re also in top 5 sides in attendance and ST holders. That’s one measure of the size of a club. we’re currently in the top 7 spenders (everyone was using net spend last season - if using net spend - we’re actually highest spenders) - we’re actually bigger top 5...

The desire to be in there top league was always there. there is an appreciation of where we were but the fact is we’re not anymore. Got to get out of that “little Coventry” mentality both Doug and Robins have encouraged this. what’s happened is we’re no longer needing a siege mentality where...

For me it’s more frustration. We’ve known there was an issue when we sold Hamer. We still haven’t replaced him, and for the 3rd season running we’re starting our season 10 games in. last 2 seasons we’ve been going at top 6 form… after game 15. I think there’s a real chance here and the worry...

Good point. But frustrating that. Too many chances missed

We need to learn to do this. It’s time we got on the dark arts

Watford commentator “they’ve gone in midfield”

Ffs - that’s what happens when you don’t take your chances

Definitely. I do accept it. But we look as though we’re trying to win rather than not lose. the defence has been open all season, at least we’re showing a bit of endeavour

Impressed this is - we seem more expansive. look ropey at the back like. But we’ve been like that all season

Could easily be 3-3 this - good game. Shame Wright ain’t playing he’d have finished both them chances

For me the issue is - the likelyhood is our better players are going to be off. Sheaf, Wright, MVE and Possibly Simms. then we’re going to have another 6 months of “well the new squad needs time to gel” this year is a great opportunity, it’s not gone yet. But we’re putting ourselves at a...

Remember when people said we wouldn’t miss O’Hare…

I think Robins’s main strength is creating a siege mentality and then dragging out the extra 10% out of limited players. since he’s been backed there’s very few players that have gone on to better after us. There’s obviously the none limited players - Gyokeres, Hamer, O’Hare - who will have...

Didn’t Pressley have a clause allowing his sacking if we dropped into the relegation zone? robins isn’t going to freely walk though is he.

Robins isn’t going to walk at any point. He has a 4 year contract on probably lucrative terms

100% you’re one of these just happy to stay up this year

Well if he’s good enough he can take a 45m squad and get them in play offs. I wouldn’t take more than 5 other teams squads in this league. individual players yes but not squads

So is Robins good enough or what?

With 45m spent - the expectation with that goes up. We’re not shopping around in the odds and sods anymore. the players are better.

It doesn’t buy anything but it buys better players, but then it would be the manager’s job to get the better players to work together. If he can’t do that he’s not doing his job correctly
