    Mason-Clark

    There was a phase last season when everyone was loving Kitching, he has been less good the last few months but he may come good. I think it's way too early to be writing off EMC as you say. I agree that 4-5 mil for League 1 players is a risk when they have not been tested. I suppose it's a...

    Clumsy and a bit unlucky, he fell on his heels, I wouldn't say it means he didn't play well though.

    If give Tats a go at LWB, he was over there a lot on Saturday and did well.

    It would feel like it, but people have described many games as 'must win' this season and then we've lost and we are still here. If we lose the next 2 we will be feeling shit again going into some very tough games.

    I think if we lose this we mustn't all go crazy and start saying it was a false dawn and that Robins must go! A win up there would be amazing but a draw or a narrow defeat where we play well is not a disaster. Turnarounds take time, if we lose there and win the next game we can still call it a...

    Lati appreciation thread

    I was a bit surprised to see some people singling him out in the match thread yesterday; I thought he'd been really good. He seemed to make all his challenges and got the ball out of his feet pretty well. Solid player, I can see why Robins likes him...

    People seem to forget that in every game there is an opposition. QPR also have higher expectations and are desperate for a win. We did fight and try but so did they. There were periods when both teams had control. It was a draw. It’s ok.

    I mean at the end of the season, that version of the table is not available

    It's amazing to read how bereft everyone sounds on here. I suppose some of it is emotion of the match but obviously the build up of the last few matches. I really don't think our team is as bad as people are making out and I don't think Robins has lost the plot. We're in a poor run and...

    It's a bad game and we look poor. Their fans booed them off at half time though, and don't forget we are winning. I would definitely be looking to make a change somewhere, we are losing everything in the middle. I'm surprised at how negative people are about Eccles, he seemed to be the only one...

    Time's Up

    Reading some of this is so depressing. We have had a poor start to the season for sure. It's not great ad I really hope we improve starting tomorrow. But calls for Robins to be sacked are strange in my view. A club like ours needs stability and continuity. We will have some bad periods and some...

    A Gentlemans Excuse Me

    I agree that things are pretty desperate and there's not much to feel positive about. I do feel that we should stick with Robins though. He has been great for us as we all know and it is still relatively early in the season. I would give him until Christmas to turn it around. 3/4 wins in the...

    I think I'd out Simms in for Tats and move BTA to the right. EMC was ok last night but I think Simms needs time and will start to click soon. Get BTA running at the defence again. They will be defensive so we need to stretch them

    It does feel like a must-win but the truth is that there is plenty of time to turn things around. A run of decent results and you can get back up the table quite quickly. That said, I'm finding it hard to work out what's wrong with the team at the moment. I keep thinking it must be the midfield...

    Fantastic performance. Such a shame. We deserved at least the draw and a chance on pens. I was surprised he took off Rudoni and Haji and Norman, they looked the most potent at that point. Maddison is good. I think we’ll get big boost from that performance though, we can be proud of them.

    Really good half. Eccles, Rudoni and Bassette standing out but the defence have all been superb. Who knows how Spurs will come out second half but we can be proud of that half...
