    Match Thread Hull (A) Friday 15th September

    I thought we played well, especially 1st half. We invited pressure, and like everyone else couldn't see why Sakamoto didnt come on for Godden in the last 15 to pack up the midfield. Wilson 8 MVE 7 Lati 7 McF 7 Binks 7 JDS 7 Eccles 6 (7 for first 60 mins) Kelly 7 Ayari 6 (7-8 firsy half) Godden...

    That’s what a squad is for. Gutting about Sheaf but bringing in your club captain who was brilliant in the last 8 or so games last season isn’t a disaster. Allen should be back by next weekend too, followed by O’Hare.

    Really hope they start Sakamoto. Thought he looked great at Swansea in that AM role

    Someone on Facebook just posted that Sheaf has torn a calf muscle. 6-8 weeks out.

    Supergrass were better than Blur or Oasis. Oasis had some decent early tunes, but basically re-wrote the same song as the years rolled by. Blur are better songwriters and musicians, but it's hard to warm to them.

    I think it's safe to say it will be Wright and one other this season, if we're playing a front 2. Was slightly surprised to see Simms & Godden start together a fair amount already this season (Leicester, Sunderland, Middlesborough) Hopefully Tavarres will also offer something different when he...

    players on holiday

    I remember the interview Grimmer & Bayliss gave on one of the Cov podcasts. They said Robins was a strict manager. The decision to give players some time off will be the right decision I am sure

    Ben Wilson interview - worth a read

    Makes you wonder, all these GK's at Premier / Championship teams, who are in their mid 20's but have played very little first team football. There will be some absolute gems there, but they will need to move down divisions, or abroad to actualy play. I remember Wilson's league debut at Norwich...

    Ex Player Watch

    Wouldn’t surprise me if Jones is playing in The Championship within the next 2 years. Still only 25. After his horrendous injuries he needed to play, and have a season or two with regular football. He’s now getting that. Was absolutely gutted when he broke down with the 2nd ACL after getting...

    Ellis Simms Going Forward

    Got to say, I think he looks good. Just short of match practice, and confidence. He came on at Swansea, and turned 2 of their defenders on the half way line and powered past them. It instantly reminded me of prime Cyrille Regis.

    Never been convinced with 2 upfront, apart from our League 2 season with McNulty & Biamou. It didn't really work last season with Vik and Godden but we had no other choice with Allen, O'Hare & Palmer all injured, and McGuire being gash. Surely now with the personnel we have, Robins must be...

    Match Thread Watford (h)

    We were wide open aganst Sunderland (mainly in the 2nd half), and they had loads of space when they broke on us. Not something you see often in a Robins team. I guess it will take time to have everyone on board, after all, our team is 60% players bought in the last 6-7 weeks.

    The only possible change I see Robins making is Wright for Simms.

    Transfer Rumour Palmer to Norwich

    Fully agree. Great player, who seems to have been revitalised by Robins and Viveash. Can’t imagine he’d want to go or we’d let him go.

    Once Palmer went off we weren’t going to score. I actually Simms did OK, made some good runs, but the strikers were starved of service. Not sure 2 up front is working to be honest. Would prefer Palmer and Sakamoto behind Simms or Wright to be honest

    With O'Hare, Allen and Tavares back within a month, I am not sure we are that short to be honest. Maybe CB

    I might be in the minority, but I liked Panzo, and would happily have him back on a Perm.

    Dacosta

    I quite liked Dacosta during the 20/21 season. He was wild, but offered us something different at times. I remember he got a start against Reading during the early part of the 21/22 season and was totally out of his depth. Hooked at half time, and I don't think he played again. After watching...

    Transfer Rumour Alex Mowatt

    Howlley will go out on loan. Allen won’t be in the squad for a few weeks and is probably looked at more of a AM especially when we play the box formation. No way we’re signing 3 CMs. 1 more possibly
