    If we stay up we need to acknowledge a job well done by the manager and the team. Robiins will have kept us up despite major long term injuries to key players, Godden, Kelly, Marosi, Rose, Walker and Dabo. We have managed for a good 50% of the season without our first choice strikers. He will...

    Not bad for a manager who is a muppet according to some.

    If Robins is a muppet I wonder what that makes the other ten of eleven managers we have had since PL relegation. Much sooner have a muppet who has produced 2 promotions and a cup win in 4 years than another of our merry go round managers.

    Can't wait to see the success we will have with Harris or Lowe.

    So that's 62 mins of the games he has been involved in. That would be a lot lower average for all of our games this season.

    The way we were playing last season we may well have been promoted, even with a ten point deduction. We were 7 points clear at the top with a game in hand, unbeaten in 14 and looking like we wouldn't lose again all season. And all of that playing in front of 5K crowds 20 miles from our own...

    As you know, even if that 10 points were added back on we wouldn't have been promoted. And that was a team containing Murphy in goal, Christie, Fleck, Baker (who despite what you say, was a good third division player), Moussa, Wilson and Clarke. Some third division team that playing in front of...

    The point was about last season. The fact that we still won the league playing no games at home is something else that those who think Robins is a poor manager choose to ignore.

    Unfortunately we haven't had a 'home' record for nearly two years now. Another reason why Robins should be lauded for what he has achieved.

    Rotherham - QPR

    Leicester were in front at one stage too. The 'as it stands table's (didn't exist in those days) would have had us down for part of the game.

    Robins linked with Bristol City.

    So the best case scenario is that we stay up and Robins leaves. After his departure, apparently, the best case scenario is that we get Ryan Lowe (never managed at this level) or Harris (already sacked by two Championship clubs). Shows the paucity of ideas and options from those who want...

    Team that cost £140m. 4 Team that cost £3m. 1 But the manager has to go.

    No, I said the team he played for was overseas,I didn’t mention anything about signing from an overseas club. The important point is that he was playing in the Dutch league, the league in which he was scouted in, unless we decided to sign him based on his youth team performances and 15 games...

    Lost the Dressing Room

    Label it how you want. Dabo played in the same league as Kasteneer and Hamer, the olnly substantial amount of senior football he played before joining us. How he did in Holland would have played a major part in whether we signed him or not. No doubt that his previous Chelsea connections played a...

    Lost the Dressing Room

    So Dabo plays in Holland for two years but no account is taken as to how he played for his two clubs there,his signing for us is purely based on what Vibash knew of him from Chelsea? I'm pretty sure that the same person/ people who watched Kasteneer (perhaps Badland himself), compiled and...

    Me right now after a week of ranting

    We deserved to beat Derby.Nothing flukey about it. Doesn't fit the we wuz right and Robins is crap narrative though.

    Lost the Dressing Room

    Just to clarify. Grendle was criticising the recruitment of overseas players. My point is that the same team who tracked and recruited Kasteneer, would be the same people who watched and recruited Dabo and Hamer. It wouldn't have mattered whether Dabo was English or Dutch.

    Lost the Dressing Room

    The point being made was that our recruitment of players playing for overseas clubs has been poor. Dabo, just like Hamer, Jobello, Hilsner and Kastaneer was signed after his performances in an overseas league.

    We signed him based on his performances overseas.
