I don’t think we settled for a draw.I think we had the better chances throughout the game. I also thought we were the better footballing team. The fact that Blues committed so many fouls and had three players booked (should have been more) gives evidence to the fact that they were struggling to...

Things he hasn't said but hopefully will soon: Great to still be in the Championship and back at the Ricoh. Followed a year later by: Fantastic that this club is back in the Premier League. To be honest, being a good challenging second division club would be great for a few years (I said...

On the whole, Shipley hasn’t played well this season. There have been a few games where he has looked at the standard and has had a positive influence (Bristol City, Millwall). I feel sorry for Allen as in his last few appearances he has played really well and I would much rather have seen him...

We could have beaten them because in the first half we were the better team and had two great chances to score before they did. Should have beaten them? When you look at their players, particularly their forwards, their budget that dwarfs ours and the depth of their squad which mitigates the...

You stated above that he reminded you of Luke Thomas, no end product.

I can't think of any game this season where players have shown lack of effort. The opposite in fact, shown by how many times we have come back from a goal down.

I remember it like that. I think it was only after he was sacked that the alternate version was sung by some City fans for a while.

With regard to someone like Trump. He truly is (or should be) answerable to the electorate. The decisions they make effect the daily lives of the people they serve. In Trumps case, pursuing policies that take no account of, for example, the environment, which have a negative impact on the...

If you read back you will see that I said that of course, everyone is entitled to their opinion. The thing that gets my goat is that some see themselves as experts. What they say is a fact. In your case you see as a fact, a certainty, that some of what Robins does is inept. But this fact that...

Unfortunately they already know about him.

Even if that is true, McCallum quickly became a member of the first team squad and would have come under the tutelage of Robins and his staff. Coaches play no part in the development and improvement of young players? If true it would make you wonder about the point of coaching.

Robins returned to the Club in 2017. McCallum joined in 2018. As Robins was the manager, why would he have nothing to do with the signing? The fact is that under Robins' management, a free signing became a player worth several million pounds.

Robins brought in McNulty, sold for a huge profit. He bought Chaplin. Sold for a huge profit. He introduced Bayliss into the team, apparently against the advice of his staff. Two years of playing for Robins and he is sold for £2 or £3 million. Most reasonable posters would recognise Robins...

I suppose it is phrases such as ‘he has proven to be tactically inept and by not making changes has cost us points in the past undoubtedly’ that I find hard to take. It is the definite nature of the statement. It’s not your opinion, you, like others state things like this as a fact. As I stated...

You are factually wrong. We took the third play off spot in League Two. Lincoln took the final place.

The dictionary definition for inept is 'incompetent and bungling'. You say you don't think he is inept all of the time. Presumably you think he is inept then a considerable amount of the time. I would really struggle to think of too many times over the past 4 years that Robins has made...

You constantly bang on about playing two up front, a call you make based upon your vast technical know how no doubt. You berate Bakayoko at every available opportunity, you think him totally useless. You find out that Biamou is playing with an injury. Do you acknowledge that perhaps Robins...

You think that MR can be inept at times? Hard to know what some people expect from the manager. It would seem that it would have to be someone who makes the correct decision every time. As Robins is human then I think you have to accept that mistakes will be made, but to use the word ‘inept’ I...

Both players great for City, but very different in the way they played. Cyrille had pace and power. He was very mobile and happy with the ball at his feet driving at defences. He also had a cannonball shot. A more explosive player than Dion.

Keogh was one of the best and most effective players of our previous championship spell. He always gave 100% but his game wasn't just about effort, he was a very mobile and skilful defender who read the game well and rarely had a bad game. He got a good reception from City fans in the friendly...
