Is Howley out of contract this summer ? Memory playing tricks on me but pre Eccles it might be Bigi who was last player to come through the academy and make an impact at championship level. Could be wrong. You can’t blame Robins for that because not many have gone on to have a better career...

Yes. the 2 10’s formation wasn’t working and he thought Palmers greater physicality was better suited to the match so he took COH off.

He’s actually not been a MOTM candidate for quite a while to be honest. COH is certainly a good player but his recent form hasn’t been to his own high standard. I still feel his physical attributes or lack of them will make him struggle in the Premier league. He’s a top end championship...

Who’d be a football club owner …. King getting pelters for not supporting Robins enough in January, despite buying Torp and EMC. Not selling any of our better players. Fans have short memories …. I think both Vik and Hamer would have been sold last January under SiSU and I’m certain we not...

I thought he looked a threat against us to be honest …. I don’t think he is better than Wright or Simms but would be an upgrade on Godden from the bench Burnley have 7 players out of contract this summer including 5 first team players …. Assume they will re-sign them for their promo push next...

Clueless

Didn’t see very forced when that held up Tats shirt on Monday

COH has completed only 2 90 mins in the last 5 matches. His poor form isn’t because he’s being over played.

Kitchin, Bidwell, Wright have had plenty of rest ahead of last nights match …. Binks, Da Silva were out the team for long periods. Torp had a 2 month winter break Simms hasn’t played that much football over the course of the last 4 months Thomas, MVE, Eccles I can understand …..

Leeds manager just now on Sky “if we keeping talking about being tired the players will be tired. We moan afterwards not now. Now the players need to keep playing “

We were linked with him in the summer and yet some on here queried why we would want a player that hadn’t ripped up any trees at Swansea.

Of course it is likely that most of our young players and our foreign signings will be better next season for a year in the Championship. We ignore that. We see this a lot in football even with huge signings in the Premier League.

Very difficult to form an opinion on a defensive coach. So much depends on the players brought in, the formation deployed, the level of protection the midfield provides etc etc . We haven’t looked very secure in defence all season but have scored more goals than normal which has masked this in...

I think it will be interesting to see what experience Robins brings in. We have lost Fadz, and will probably lose Kelly, Allen, Godden ….. After both the last 2 championship matches Robins has referenced the opposition having more experience and match know how than us … assuming he addresses...

I understand Matt I just don’t think Robins trusts Tavares and if he doesn’t then we might as well move on.

I don’t disagree but I don’t see us spending big on the striker but Godden and Tavares will need replacing …. JDS was a free and brought in to play wing back which is no longer our preferred formation

I think this is a pretty good take to be honest. I have more faith in MVE and Simms but generally the themes are clear … We need a clear number 1 keeper We haven’t solved the left back / left wing back problem Another right sided central defender is needed We need cover at CDM for Sheaf...

I don’t disagree

When was the last time we saw Godden score from outside the box or the edge of the area …. I’ll wait . I understand some fans not believing Simms will come good but to think we should be playing Godden is pure desperation. We have outgrown his capabilities and I’m sure he will be moved on this...

He’s still young and I have no doubt will have a very successful career and certainly much better than fans favourite Godden has had. He’s a confidence player. His shooting last night was poor but another week one of those hits will go in. The intellect point is a red herring. Wayne Rooney...
