At the risk of labouring the point, (but it is a point that some don’t seem to get), we lost this game not through being out played, out fought or the manager being out thought. We did not lose because the tactics or the formation was wrong. We lost because the players missed chance, after...

Not true. Willis, Burge and Kelly all injured. Bayliss and Sterling away with England. Quite a few of the signings were late arrivals too. They started a back a week later than other teams due to the late end of last season.In the pre season friendlies it was clear that players such as Grimmer...

Win percentage wise Robins is one of, if not the, best manager that we have had. Yes, it can be pointed out that other managers had to find their wins at a higher level. That makes no difference as Robins can only operate in the league we are in with the resources that we have. If he is such a...

How many did Plymouth have?

Ironic that you would comment on someone who has a fixed view on a player that will never change.

I am glad that the general fan base doesn’t have the views of a few who regularly contribute to the matchthread on here. Absolutely unbelievably negative. The same people were saying the same things last season in what turned out to be a promotion campaign. We played well today in the first half...

Just thought. I think Jasper was a fan of JT so may have sung it but the song itself definitely came from JT.

No, the song about the Bantam Cock is by a now dead singer called Jake Thackeray. He used to appear regularly on a BBC Saturday night programme called Braden’s Week. On after MOTD but before the late night Frankenstein or Dracula film.

Bakayoko is no Cyrille Regis, but a comparison can be made in the fact that you won’t see the best of them if they are played in the wrong way. Sillett based his team plan on playing to Cyrille’s strengths and not playing him as a target man, a role that didn’t suit him, as had been done by the...

He was awful against Blackpool.When he came on yesterday I thought he looked sharper, ball was being played to his feet and he had a few reasonable touches. Like anyone, he needs to be given a chance.

I like Ponticelli and at some stage he will get a chance. However, in both the pre season games at WBA and against Derby he seemed way off the pace. I thought he may have been one of the players referred to by Robins after the Albion game along with JCH, McDonald and Grimmer who I all thought...

Robins has managed this club twice before in this league and has a very good win percentage. The last time he managed us he took a team that was losing week in week out to a winning Wembley final and to league form which if replicated over the season would have had us at least half way. The...

Andreu wasn’t in the team on Tuesday night and we were awful. I hope Andreu will be more of the solution than the problem. Our best performance of the season so was was against Scunthorpe when both played well. In both home games we have played a passing game.Away from home the approach seems...

Injuries to Kelly,Willis and Burge. McNulty leaving. Bayliss and Sterling awaywith England. Two or three of the signings late in the summer.

Getting rid of Robins will achieve that?

I think Willis, Doyle and Bayliss have been okay. Willis has been injured, Doyle was MoM against Plymouth and Bayliss has shown glimpses of what is to come. Shipley has hardly played.

I hate games like last night. Nearly 7 hours on the motorway for 90 minutes of “entertainment”. At a conservative estimate the evening cost £80 or £90 in tickets, petrol and a meal for my son and myself. (We had fish and chips at a cafe in the town, spent nothing at the stadium. Just saying as...

You were doing so well until the last line. I still think Biamou should be given a chance to show what he can do. Poor on Saturday but okay in other games he has played this season. I have not heard how bad his injury from last night was?

We finished 6th. McNulty was his player who he peresevered with even when fans were on his back. He got us promoted.

I agree with all of these incidents. All were an embarrassment and reflect badly on the fans who follow the club. The next time Bakayoko or O'’Brien play I want them to do well. This is less likely if they are treated like this.
