Tom Bayliss gets my vote for Fringe Player. He looks like an old English sheepdog.

It's part of the problem with the way Robins manages the squad though. Players will sit on the bench for weeks and get no game time because of his late or bizarre subs and then when we do need them they lack match sharpness. Plenty of occasions last season too where players were thrust into the...

Would be interested to know which of those were Robin's signings.

Doyle isn't babysitting anyone, it's a myth. He's not controlling anyone - watch him. All he does is bollock other people's bad passes and then proceed to hoof it out for a goal kick himself. He's on borrowed time because he's no longer leading by example.

Robins was given a squad last year that was better than the rest of the division and we scraped the play offs with it. He's done great things off the pitch but on it he's so defensive that I can't see what his plan is to win games. He signed too many players and can't put a coherent team...

You haven't mentioned Jones in the entire thread. And i would have laughed that off too. Will be weeks til he is match fit. First rule of troll club = remember what you've said. Covcity4life loses again..

A winger playing on the wing. Not a striker.

I've not seen such a big deflection since Jordan Shipley's goal in the play off final.

Was nothing to come back to after you were scrabbling around trying to justify such a poor suggestion as playing Hiwula at left midfield. You know you made yourself look a bit silly and now you're trying to compensate for that by convincing yourself you've won an argument that never existed. A...

Just looks like a fat bloke who lost a lot of weight quickly to me.

I'm not assuming anything, you said: and so I asked who you would play instead. First rule of troll club is to remember what you've said. You've now confirmed you'd play a right footed striker who hasn't played in the league for 6 weeks at left midfield when our 1st and 2nd choice left backs...

Who would you play there instead and what would the team/formation be?

I think he's an absolute liability football wise. Passing is generally atrocious, panics if the ball is passed to him and he isn't in 20 yards of space. If he does get forward he can't get back quickly enough and if he doesn't get forward we are light in the middle when we attack. That said...

Hadn't even made a first team start in L2 1 year ago so has to be allowed more time to fully adapt to L1. You couldn't play an attack minded left winger anyway while Bayliss and Thomas are in the side and Doyle is the DM. What makes Bayliss great can also be dangerous for the team when they...

Really hope we win this. Big away crowd, on tv, loss in previous match, another big game coming up in the week and i travelled home for the game. City to scrape a nervy 2-1.

Might be Abramovich's new cash cow. Pay Sterling £5k a week, tell us he's on 20k a week, make us pay 20k a week when he doesn't play. Multiply that by 60 loanees or whatever ridiculous amount Chelsea have this season = quids in!

Last year, when he did play, he was playing the same role that Biamou and now JCH play. The outlet to aim at and hold the ball up. I remember when he came back into the team in November against Crawley, after the injuries to Jones and Kelly, and we went to 3 at the back and were shocking. Our...

Would give him something else to wipe his arse on instead of Tony's annual wage though.

That's Lee Tomlin, loads of Championship experience. Looked like dissent as it was a straight red and he'd already been booked. One of those portly players who has always looked like he enjoys a beer. Was told he can leave Cardiff in the summer after being on loan at Forest and still getting...

Commentator sounds like he'd be more suited to nature documentaries than footy highlights.
