The problem is too many people don't listen to what Robins actually says. They are too busy trying to read between the lines and conflating conspiracy theories.

All four goals were shockers. Defenders looked like it was their first pre season friendly. Midfield slacking too.

He has.

You cant haul people off after one collective mistake. If you are giving players a chance you have to give them a chance to react to a bad situation. All professional footballers look good on the training ground. It is whether they can do it in gametime. All players at all levels make...

He didnt pick the performances that was down to the players. Do you believe Robins said "I aint bothered about this cup, that is why I pickesd you lot tonight. And remember just go out and surrender the midfield for the first half hour."

They were there to play if game was tight. But 3-0 after half an hour I suspect changed the game plan.

And sold our best players after one when the squad was small already.

Wilson, Dabo, Rose, Mcfadzean, Allen, Palmer and Walker have plenty of experience of first team football. There were 4 players who had an excuse re lack of experience. They should have competed better as a team in the first half hour. Robins will have learnt a lot tonight .

We have a history of League Cup failure long before Robins. Mainly when we were a top flight club.

This is real competitive football. This is your chance to progress. You have to do better. Coming from a Prem Club isnt enough. Anyway he didn't hang them out to dry. He admits they are young and inexperienced. I think a a fair few fans have had unrealistic expectations around certain...

I will give you that, but it doesnt make you play off contenders anymore than Nottingham Forest were relegation candidates?

I am not saying he didnt do ok. I havent criticised players, I have criticised certain fans expectation and their over simplification of what makes a successful team 😉

Were we? Six places and eleven points off - contenders?

Probably because he wants to collect his thoughts and give constructive criticism to the players; rather than just bitch about Eccles like you. Robins publicly thanked the travelling fans and their turnout pre match on radio, "How many I saw on the road here.."

But he is one part in a sum of parts. Dabo and Adaramola really ripped Bristol down the flanks didnt they? Which so many fans thought they would do at Sunderland if they had started. The game was realistically over after half an hour. You may as well save your big names and give your...

For those who think we are serious play off contenders that is the strength and depth. It wasnt a totally rookie line up.

They did but one or two players had form for disappearing.

I heard the offer is 30 million grass seeds.

The problem here is you have Wasps, CCFC, EFL and Common Wealth games and lots of fingers pointing in different directions. Anybody who thinks the blame is 100 per cent one parties fault is deluded. In fairness we dont know if CCFC flagged up concerns during rugby 7's. EFL seemed to be on...

Another I have made up some bullshit....discuss thread.
