Or three wins in six league and cup this season. Depends how you want to look at stuff

Rudoni and Torp can and should be doing them though. I think it was Torp who put simms through in the first half with a great ball.

Exactly this, it’s the set up. We keep getting overrun in midfield. Eccles had a great first half and Torp was also very good. I reckon Norwich changed something at half time and the two of them were pinned back by a far better press and had to do more and more defensive work. It fits peoples...

Yeah, not a good look !

First half was the best he’s played this season. Looks to be lacking in confidence as last season he’d have had more digs when given a sniff. Tired during the second half but him and Eccles where having to cover a load of ground due to how we were set up.

Agreed. Strange as we had some early success getting the ball behind them and then stopped for some reason. Mentioned earlier if we’re going to get the best out of our attackers we need to get down the channels quicker and use their pace/power In terms of loans it’s been alluded to elsewhere...

He wasn’t happy, it sounded like agents maybe scuppered a deal or two. He also mentioned palmer and his agent agitating for move and his performance against Oxford suggested he was tapped up before game.

Yeah, he said nothing was close to being done on the day because agents pushing up wage demands etc. Guessing that doesn’t mean there weren’t efforts before

So you saw him having an argument with the bench and just assumed/made up it was because he wanted to be subbed ?!! Bizarre take Ps he was running an overlap and winning corner four mins into injury time.

No, he thought we played pretty well first half but was pissed off with second half performance. Said players werent tracking runners and working hard enough, but said it wasn’t as bad as when they beat us 3-0 when we didn’t lay a glove on them

Id go as far to say Eccles was probably the best player on the pitch first half. Torp also decent. Midfield got overran in second and think that was as much Norwich’s tactical changes and other City players not doing their jobs

I yeah, move the ball quicker, use the channels more and turn defenders one for BSB, keep one or two up from corners !!! Let’s play to our strengths

They also add some grit and are a threat from pieces. Harsh on binks as he’s started season well but still think Thomas/Kitching is best partnership

Just looked disjointed. Decent enough first half, Eccles and Torp both good but got totally overrun in the second and players didn’t seem to know their jobs. Norwich were quality second half, don’t know if they changed their formation but their press and passing went up another level.

We were talking about Robins sticking around not king. He might sell us, who knows My point is that if Robins made the play offs once or twice and didn’t get promoted that doesn’t mean he’d be automatically sacked. I think the main things will be; are we sustainable ie king not having to blow...

Snap !

Don’t disagree. I’ve never been one to think we’re on for automatics etc. It’s a tough league to get out of, especially with parachute payment clubs. If we’re in the mix for the play offs I’ll be happy, then as you say, you need a bit of luck

Id imagine it was an objective/goal/target not a contractual obligation. I think as long as we’re in the mix year on year and on a sustainable footing Robins will be fine People have very short memories. It wasn’t that long ago that a transfer window would consist of one of our few decent...

Eccles sheaf and Rudoni is a very good midfield
