I just posted something similar on the match thread. We didn’t seem to have the usual “fresh start / impress manager” energy or body language. I honestly think of all the amazing season Robins had, getting largely this same squad to a 9th place finish and FA cup final was his greatest...

Lucky point really but we’ll take it. What worries me most is the players attitudes. Was a million miles off the usual “must impress new manager” energy / body language. We have some winnable games coming up, hopefully a couple of wins and some confidence can change things. PUSB

I hate Collins but that’s just a good hit tbh, gone right in the corner with some swerve. Not sure he can be blamed for that. Rudoni not close enough though

One thing I always say to my mates at Half time is how I can’t understand why the subs aren’t in the changing room at half time. Surely hearing the tactics is more beneficial than doing some keepy ups. Can warm up during the match (unless coming on at half time)

At the start of the season I thought we would be lucky to hold on to MVE but he’s like a different player. Misplaced 3 simple passes in a row in that first half - that’s mindset / concentration.. I think he’s been a bit complacent with no real competition at RB. Overall I thought we looked...

They’re my most hated club for mostly irrational reasons. I think it stemmed from their fans doing pro-sisu songs during some protests years ago when most other fans realised our struggles and united with us in some protests. I really can’t stand Wilder either, he really does love himself but...

Out of interest, who was your first choice?

That’s Liz Truss territory that poor bloke

Don’t know how else to word it? General football fans? It was mostly based on the banter I’ve been getting from non-Cov supporting friends but I guess have a quick look at social media too (attached as an example seeing as you asked). He’s definitely a bit of a “meme”. Anyway, let’s hope he...

Whatever you think of him as a coach, he has always come across as a really decent bloke. Our rep as a club is taking a bit of a battering for this from the wider footballing community though, judging by the amount of messages I’m getting from non-Cov fans laughing at this appointment. Let’s...

Has to be higher than 9th surely. If 9th and an FA Cup semi final wasn’t good enough for Robins to keep his job then surely the new guy has to do better with a supposedly better squad.

Whats great about football is opinions but I don’t see how our attack is comfortably worthy of top 6. Wright is probably the only one for me. But only through sky blue tinted glasses could Simms, Bassette and BTA be classed as top 6 strikers, in my opinion.

Back to the thread, interestingly betting markets have reopened after a spell of being closed as it seemed a done deal. Lampard is still favourite but Eustace down to 10/3.

I was talking about recent form mate. It’s generally considered that form is circa the last 6 games. The point I’m making is that I don’t see the rush to fire him before having someone else lined up. If he wanted Robins gone, that’s up to him and he has the right to make that call but I think...

If you’re feeling shit and want to feel a little bit better before you go to sleep, console yourself that you’re not me. I’m still on the £500 premier league package and so far this season have only been able to watch 2 games live. My cost per game so far this season is £250 😂 it can always be worse

Because Dean Austin told him it was. Nelt to do with me guv’nor, I dealt him a great deck, he’s just playing the wrong cards. Recruitment has been shocking since Badlan left.

Seems a reasonable response 👍 Not that I need to engage with someone like you but if the action was a carefully considered decision made before Derby as suggested, we were literally in play off points form. You can’t argue with that, it’s numbers mate. (10 points from 6 games = 77 points).

League position is different to form mate. We had 10 points from 6 games coming into derby. (That’s a 77 point season form I.e playoffs)

The more I think about it, the more I think Doug and Robins had a proper row after Derby and it was an emotional, reactive decision. To not have anyone lined up to come in before sacking a manager that was in top 6 form is so fucking naive.
