Bidwell is virtually my first name on the team sheet

he was looking hyped up from the start

...still better than BTA

...trouble is, that's it.

Nice goal v Luton?

Not sure why the natural assumption is BTA for EMC. BTA did nothing to warrant inclusion yesterday. Busy, as ever, but ineffective. Also not convinced about all this stuff about changes because of so many games - he can rest some for the FA Cup. Much more important to build on the win, that...

The problem is, as I suspect will become clear when he returns, Haji is not a natural number 9. He doesn't work his socks off like Norm, nor have the aerial ability of Simms. He needs the little bit of space that he gets on the flank, or playing off the striker in a 2 up front. He is a...

Looked a pen to me as well. A general point though that by and large the referees have been pretty good this year, and noticably keen to keep play moving. I am sure some of you will think of exceptions but I can't remember coming away thinking that the ref had a shocker

He is a beast. Nightmare for full backs because of the combination of intimidating physique and speed of the mark. He is the new kid on the block - a situation that will not last forever - but I love him, he makes things happen

1. MotM Mason Clarke even though he went off at half time. Frightened the shit out of them. About 70% of play in the first half was in his quarter of the pitch. 4-0 when he was on, 0-0 when he wasn't. Eccles got two but their goalkeeper should have made a better fist of the first one and Eccles...

Apart from scoring and assists he is probably the best a ball retention no matter how tight the spot

Sticking with Collins would do my head in....

Dovin and Bidwell in as a bare minimum Ideally Simms as well Prefer a change in central defence but that could be a change too many

If Bidders is fit I would not panic about left back. It's a holding defensive midfielder and a strong personality in central defence that are the top priority. Loans or purchase - don't care

Crikey we need Bidders. He's the only one in the back 4 capable of a proper defensive shift

Walsh remains one of my top 3 favourite players of the Robins era. Walsh, Vik and Calum Doyle

Will all those who have slagged off EMC please form an orderly queue to apologize... Any time he was in his proper position he always looked a threat

It is a regular new manager ready made excuse 'the players are not fit'. Robins' players are fit, even Torp who surely is now up to speed MVE is the problem - take him off after 60 mins?

why on earth drop Torp I thought he provided just the edge in midfield we needed

I felt that too. That that group of players and staff had what it took - except for Kastaneer of course....
