1. Chaplin is too slow over the first 10 yards (surprising for a man of his height and build) 2. He had a poor positional sense - not just too deep but often the wrong place. He was the only forward not involved in the Hiwula goal against Southend because he was way out on the touchline where...

excluding penalties? And you are the main striker? And you miss a fair few? He was a bad buy, it happens. This is good business.

At the time Watford were not in the elite in terms of youth programmes as they were not in the Prem, so could not prevent Man City taking him. This is according to one of the management team in the Watford youth set up. That is the situation we are in I assume.

The players we have sold for serious profit are Wilson, Maddison, and presumably Bayliss. Add in Bigi to Newc or even Stevenson...do we not generate defenders for future sale?

You judge people by the friends they keep...

That is what we missed lst season more than even a regular goal scorer

wildly over optimistic. There are other clubs doing stuff as well you know

If you make a bad buy, and you get the chance to bail out, then bail out.

Looking at the video released very recently showing the boys training, in the sprints he was last. Summed it up, he is not quick enough, for whatever reason.

Me too, don't quibble, get the cash

Robins has actually done nearly three seasons in two stints with us. All have been to some extent good First stint - loads of goals and shot up the table Second stint - year 1 (part) - Cup win, year 2 - promotion, year 3 - close to play offs. Therefore he is due a dud. Lots of changes in every...

There was always at least one goal conceding error per game

I thought there was some doubt as to whether that actually was Seppala. Having seen the picture of her the other day, I came to the conclusion it was. Is the record now confirmed that Mark and Joy had a tete a tete at Coombe Abbey?

He was voted man of the match by the player raters 7 times. Joint first with Kelly. Personally I think we are best shot of him as his confidence seemed to have gone, but he did have some very good games

People may have better memories than me but, in the summer break... 2017 Robins brought in 10 new players (inc Hyam who was notionally for development). Of those 6 have been good, two (Biamou and McDonald) were good in parts, and there were two duds, O'Brien & Vincenti. That gives Robins a...

these 3 year contracts are not good ideas

Hi Captain Negative here... It looks like two things have changed in the way the Club tackles the transfer window since Robins first purchases in 2017. Both bear considerably greater risk, particularly for a club that is supposed to be on its uppers financially. In Summer 2017 Robins purchases...

I hope all you you Chaplin-believers are right. I thought he lacked at least a yard of pace and really fancied himself in the pocket rather than as a striker. And much as I love Baka, he does not terrorize a defence. Hiwula is interesting because such a high % of his goals were individually...

1. Disappointing - the biggest weakness by far last season even though I take his points about the cost, and that the wingers will score, 2. Even so. Baka and Chaplin will have to come on a lot in which case. 3. Also how do loans fit in now? The defence is well stocked. We need a heavy-duty...

If Hiwula and the French guy are on the flanks, it implies the dutch guy is in the hole like Bright. (I will have their names by Christmas)
