    Did robins know they changed formation?

    I think 10 or 15 minutes into that 2nd half, you bring Ayari on for one of the strikers, revert to the box midfield and try and regain the control we had lost in the middle. Give it 20 minutes and if it doesn’t make a difference and we’re still chasing the game with 15 to go, you can then throw...

    Did robins know they changed formation?

    2nd half, as a direct result of their formation change, Sakamoto was having to drop an extra 10/15 metres into defensive midfield to find the space to receive the ball. Did you feel a straight swap of a very green Ayari for Sakamoto was going to remedy that?

    Referee

    I still don’t understand how the guy who tackled Binks half way up his leg stayed on the pitch. You’ve not been allowed to tackle like that for 10 years.

    England thrashed at the cricket, Cov losing, Bobby Charlton passing, can’t see the Rugby going well tonight either. My lads better win tomorrow otherwise this weekend is a sporting write off.

    Bench was weak as fuck today today but hope Robins does not use that as an excuse. Was hoping for O'Hare back, instead we lost Allen. Sheaf the only positive from that. He was head and shoulders above everyone else over the 90 minutes.

    Script was written for this one as soon as we missed the first couple of early chances. Dire 2nd half really.

    On all those MVE videos when he was signed he was scoring for fun from that angle.

    Time for Wilson to force a change. He should refuse to go up for any last minute corner if Eccles is taking it.

    I can see the raw potential and the different parts of their game that can be developed and polished. Thomas just looks like a very very average Championship centre half to me.

    Price tags aside, Bobby Thomas is the most unconvincing of all the new signings for me.

    I wonder if Rob Gurney sits their commentating with his mic off, just to put Clive off.

    Think he's just having to make much longer runs to get space now. First half he was just dropping into gaps and now, after their formation change, he's having to break lines to find the space.

    I don;t get it. The defender has just held Simms and thrown him to the ground so the keeper gets a free catch of the ball....

    Godden to get the winner in the 97th minute after a half of pure shithousery from Bristol.

    Expecting Bristol to get dirtier and dirtier as the game goes on. There's no way a Pearson side is not going to notice a ref who is letting this much go.

    They are going to have find an extra man deeper in midfield from somewhere so that their wingbacks can get higher. Their 3 in midfield is Matty James sitting a bit deeper than the other 2 and we've got their wingbacks penned back because he can't manage the horizantal line through defensive...
