Three managers being Robins who signed him, Carr for a few games and Lampard for 6-7. It’s hardly conclusive. Robins lost his job largely because in a team without Kitching we conceded shocking amounts of piss poor goals. We’ve hardly been non sieve like under Lampards short tenure. Maybe giving...

Easy to row in behind popular opinion. The case is that for good periods of last season he was our best defender and played in the best defensive partnership we had alongside Thomas. He is the only defender we have with a semblance of aggression. For some reason we’ve had the likes of non...

What’s all this rubbish about “bad eggs”. If we have a bunch of players who can’t put effort in for 90 minutes for good money just because they aren’t all best friends then they aren’t the players we need. No wonder we’re so “nice” on the pitch. Probably trying not to win so the opposition don’t...

You do realise there are 10 other players in both sides

It’s a strange one. If you assume it’s all down to him you have to say he’s identified some good players. The problem is there isn’t a cohesive shape or style. Is that his issue? The only piss poor signings I’d say are Torp, Binks, Collins and Dasilva. You can make a case for the rest at the...

The issues are we have a lop sided squad. No depth or craft in midfield. Lots of centre backs non of whom are very good and some talented forwards that are stacked on the left or centre. We lack a natural leader and a playmaker.

Read somewhere we’re going to have some experience and know how incoming. We really need it. Especially in the middle of the park.

He’s a 2m ch for me. Very basic. Heads it. Clears it. Basic.

They aren’t bogey teams. We’re just consistently not good enough against them

Completely disagree. Far more involved than O’Hare. Constantly wants the ball and is the most creative player we have. And gets goals. Great signing.

No confidence. No one to lean on.

Dovin mom 7. 6’s most of the rest. Torp 4.

First half was dreadful all round. Awful. Second half really showed how weak we are at the moment. No craft, no leadership, no pace. I can’t see a position where Torp can play. He’s achingly slow. We have two dreadful centre halves on the ball and all we do is give them the ball. 55 mins in we...

Only positive is Dovin. Sakamoto and Torp have to come off. Got to go with Simms and Bassette up top. How do we relentlessly end up with the ball in our back 4.

Dreadful stuff so far. Defence the normal shambles but even they are being outdone by Eccles and Sheaf - totally pedestrian. And Torp. Keep trying to see something but he’s just not up to it.

Happy New Year all.

Disagree he was brilliant for us. Had some decent games. Had a load of time out (not his fault of course), but in my opinion he’s not a big miss.

Raphael/Tavares/EMC/Bassette could all do a job

What will be interesting is if he wants to take anyone with him. On or off field. Might give us a chance to offload Binks? Dasilva? Or will he have the finances to take someone we’d like to keep.

Lampard will have limited leeway in Jan. I’d be amazed if he spends anything on wide positions with the issues we have defensively and in midfield
