Without Kelly and Harmer and away from home, I'd go 5-4-1 The usual 5 at the back plus Sheaf, O'Hara, Allen and Shipley in midfield, Max up front. Then I'd sit back and scrap for a goalless draw as the basic aim, and it's a bonus if we nick a winner. Shit to watch, but who cares, there are no...

draw is just fine and dandy

I go with Grendel, whether it was a specific Robins instruction, or Wilson took it on himself, we have been playing more long ball and the defensive perfomance is the proof that this is a better route. We haven't got the quality to play the ball through at this level. We get robbed inside our...

I just want a win of any sort. I'd even settle for one goal in the first minute followed by 89 minutes of panicky defence, even tho it would be agony. This league continually bunches up - you can see it last night with Millwall beating Bristol City. We need to be somewhere in that big bunch in...

Personally I love 2 games week.

Millwall is exactly half way I think. So that isn't the next 5 the benchmark? We are capable of getting something from every one of these games, even Stoke or Preston, which are the hardest. Excluding Sheffield Wed (H), isn't it a win at home to Huddersfield and four draws - 7 points. That is...

If it was tactical, it was an uncharacteristic on Robins' part.

Huddersfield - winnable -as has been the case for every game but one in the last seven. Makes up for October when you looked at the fixture list and thought that we might lose the lot. Draw comfort from the lilihood that the current run of results might just be the mix of the fixture list and...

I suspect the January window will be quiet anyway as the finacial situation of many clubs will be uncertain, which is good news. He will have more value in the summer, undoubtedly, but fans habitually over value their own players. Even so we should be at least doubling our money, which in 12...

anybody who gets 'oxymoron'in has to be worth a 'like'

We are at the lower end of the table, what do you expect, what did you expect? If they were all fantastic we'd top the table.

But a stupid comment, because self evidently if it was easy just to magic up a goal you'd do it.

" About winning 1st and 2nd balls today. " New one for the bingo card

I share the scepticism about Shipley. Hamer must be being rested. Prepare for big substitutions on the hour - bit like Norwich.

Isn't every game a 'musn't lose' game, when you are at the bottom? 'Mmm I don't mind if we lose this one' is not heard THAT often. Mind you I will happily take a draw, as it is away from home. Different if we were at home. Keep chunking up the points. I suspect the game will make Luton seem...

There have been times when the forum has been ahead of Robins - three at the back last year springs to mind. BUT given how many opinions are expressed on here, and that they are frequently contradictory (even by the same person), then I suppose statistically the forum may just be ahead of him...

9 points off bottom 3 is actually huge as teams at that end average a point a game or thereabouts.

Sheaf mark 2?

We can't keep on giving Wycombe a bit of a bashing at their place - we have won the last three. And they too have learned the hard way this season so are gradually picking up points. So those seeing a regulation win may get their wish, but I think the odds are against it happening four times in...

This is the sort of reason why I have no desire to be back in the Prem. I got fed up after decades of every game being just 'Anxiety Central', and I have quite enjoyed giving the likes of Tranmere Rovers a bit of a tonking away from home. But obviously you either go up or down.... This season is...
