Pressure has gone up significantly now after Rotherham's win tonight. In terms of Rotherham finishing beneath us I think Thursday's game is a must win now. Whether or not teams above us get drawn back in is another thing. Rotherham certainly have momentum, which we do not.

Gutted. It was going so well 😩

Players, like in other areas of life mature at different times. They may not be ready to turn out for the first team but it is whether they have potential. Eccles has shown that he has some quality but will need games for the quality to be embedded into performances and consistency. There are...

Thorn had established championship players

I am pleased Pask was able to play in the back 3 and his pace is certainly needed in there. However, there are a lot of very good centre backs who are not blessed with pace. They often compensate by their reading of the game. For me Hyam did not look out of place in the first quarter of the...

Well I would like to wish an ill Cov player well, who has helped us to two promotions and is adapting to his first season in the Championship.

Does anyone know why Hyam was missing from today's match-day squad?

Marosi 7 (didn't have much to do but good brave save in first half and handling was good) Eccles 7 (disciplined in his play. Composed and a couple of decent crosses) McCallum 8 (he was beaten a couple of times on the inside early on but was relentless in his work rate and made numerous...

I cannot see how Godden will be able to get up to match sharpness within the next 4 or 5 games. Playing him as a lone striker when this is the case is pointless. It will help build his fitness up but at what cost? If Godden starts it must be with a strike partner surely.

I agree Kelly has looked poor since coming back from recent injury. Prior to that though I think he more than showed his ability at championship level. His reading of the game defensively is excellent.

Probably because they are not able to train as much due to COVID; they have not been given game time in under 23s (apart from one game last week) and they have hardly featured in the first team over the last month or so. Why Robins thought starting them with an extremely unfit Matty Godden is...

Marosi Pask Ostigard McFadzean McCallum Kelly O'Hare Eccles James Gyokeres Walker

For the first time this season I cannot face giving my opinion on ratings. However, we have to start on Monday with O'Hare, Gyokeres and Walker as front 3. It may be too early but I would also be tempted to start Eccles. He should be pleased with his individual performance on his championship...

The only good thing from today was him coming on and looking unphased. Once he bulks out a bit he will be a decent player.

OMG. He has allowed that 11 to come back out!!

Infuriating and embarrassing in equal measure. Robins' team selection totally wayward. The only exception being Marosi. Hope he makes 3 subs at half-time. Shipley has to come off. Would bring on Pask into a back 4 and bring on Kelly too.

Unfortunately no, based on today and the likelihood of being without Dabo and Kelly for some or all of the remaining games. Wednesday and Rotherham winning is a double kick in the teeth.

Wilson 6 (one good save. Kicking poor) Dabo 7 (looked a threat. Worrying injury. Looked like hamstring) McCallum 5 (caught out defensively and poor crosses) Rose 7 (good game. Important block for their first half chance) Ostigard 8 (motm. strong performance again against physical battles) Hyam 7...

They wander into the pitch late. Surely we should be given the match?

Hamer has a haircut. Surely that means he will score a goal.
