It is a worry in that full back position, because opposition sides will just keep trying to play diagonal balls over the top of the small defender. He looks much more decent further up the field I think. He worries me in that left back slot.

Funny isn't it, because it did look like his legs had gone.🤷

I don't think it will be very embarrassing. I think it will be the ultimate embarrassment.

Not sure who's fault it is, but... "Woke up this morning, had a whine, I've got Doug King on my mind, He didn't get his wallet out like he said he would Something tells me he's the one we should bay for blood " Maybe.🤪

Again, with Godden, if he can't break his barren spell against non league opposition, then all hope is lost. After last night, I really think we will put Maidstone to the sword.

I think so much is on the team last night rather than the manager The one puzzling one for me, as it is for many, is the playing of JDS over Bidwell. With Preston's physicality, I really didn't think this was a game for Da Silva. It's the one thing I question about Robins. He has he reasons. I...

Yup. I did say 2-0 and us going into some degree of cruise control, but now I think we will have to really go for a quality performance and have to go for the throat, otherwise fans will be on the players' backs. We have to get that performance last night out of our system. It will definitely...

Based on tonight, yes. Do you really think we will play so badly again next week though? Why does one awful performance automatically spill over into two absolutely awful performances? I reckon we will play much better next week. Not saying we are going to win or anything, but I think we will...

No, you are a trollist

Preston DID have luck, surely. JDS gifted them the ball just outside the 6 yard box and then Thomas scored an own goal. That's two bits of mighty fine luck right there and it gifted them two goals.

I am guessing MR is looking at him to see if he can manage against Maidstone on Monday. See how his foot reacts. He may have had a painkilling injection

Yep. Surely that is possible though. I would say playing for 6 mins with a foot injury is a lot less risky than being able to play 66 mins with an injury. The less time, the less chance of aggravating it surely?

That doesn't make sense. You can still play with a foot injury. It's just not at all a sensible option. I reckon if we had the numbers, neither Kelly or Torp would have been anywhere near the squad tonight.

It's not no matter what though is it. Rumour is that Kelly has a foot injury. Can't see Robins had any other choice if that's true.

It is an odd one for sure. 🤷

We have to face facts. You let stupid goals in like we have tonight and it's hard to beat anyone, don't care who it is. It's like a handout and you just make your task almost impossible to retrieve.

Yeah. Four would be nice.

Exactly. The second and third goals were especially poor. You just don't try and do what JDS did there around your own 6 yard box and the own goal was yet another unfortunate one. Avoidable though. We have had a few of those now haven't we. Just one of those nights. So galling that it is yet...

Exactly this.

Yup. Robins has been fabulous for us. I am not having it that suddenly he is clueless and hasn't got a clue what he's doing. Fatigue, injuries, knocks. I would have played Bidwell instead of JDS if it was me, but I am not inside the club and privvy to form,. injuries, illnesses or knocks...
