Not sure how data can be used to show how much the mistakes in dangerous positions from several players have cost us dearly with goals against.

Of course it was worded that Robins brought in who he wanted. I still think the talks with Lampard took so long as he wanted more of a say than were presented to him when negotiations started. Lampard can't risk failing with us. And he will have a much better idea on what and who is needed...

Silly season has started. Wouldn't be surprised if half the Championship sides lost their managers by the end of the season because of undue expectations.

Collins was on the ground with a player on top of him. Of course their supporters didn't like it but not too many complaints from their players considering they had a goal wiped out. Even Collins would have got to the ball first as it went to where he was standing. Seems to be a tactic of...

It seems on here once someone gets an idea in their head they keep to it no matter how stupid it makes them look. I'm always willing to learn. Looks like I was worried about Lampard for no reason. I hold my hands up to that. The players? Let us see what happens with new formations. I have seen...

I think that's a bit unfair. If you are going to compare anyone to Wright you will come to the same conclusion. But EMC has gone up a level and not had much game time. The last couple of games have shown what he is capable of. Not scared to run at players and gets in good positions. Rides a...

If that is where you think Oxford is I suppose yes.

Is that the same Collins that was on the floor with a player on top of him as the ball went in?

It wasn't just the performance. Most shots against were from distance that bothered the roof of the stand more than Collins. A good solid defence like we haven't seen for ages. We all know this team has goals in it. If it wasn't for our sloppy defence we would already be in contention for the...

Calm down. EMC has scored in the last 2 games. Has been unlucky previously. Has just come from the division below so we should allow him time to get used to the pace. Great confident strike for the goal. That's unless you would prefer him to hit it closer to the GK so it could be saved? He is...

I agreed with you on the way Robins was disposed of. I also had my worries about Lampard. But you must be a pessimistic type of person not to be lifted by the game yesterday. Can't remember the last time we were so solid at the back. How many shots did they have on target? We could have easily...

Really enjoyed the game. Only worrying moment all through the game was their disallowed goal. But it was clear when the ref blew when I saw Collins on the floor. Had control of the 1st half without doing any damage. Was happy at HT. Playing away at The Den and keeping their support quiet tells a...

Very good chance 🤣

I haven't seen anywhere saying Robins chose the players that came in. But Robins did state that the system of bringing in players has changed. The full truth will come out one day.

Looking forward to the game but very apprehensive. It's our last weekend together before christmas so offered to take my beloved christmas shopping in London and having a long weekend away. She doesn't have a clue we're going to the game. She hasn't been to an away game for years, and when she...

I don't get it myself. Robins improved a lot of players in his time with us. But the rare ones that failed with us then made it good elsewhere are being used as a stick to beat him with. Just like players that kept improving under him like Eccles are constantly said to not be good enough when...

Not a good draw but could have been a lot worse. At least we're not away to a Championship side near the top of the table.

Doug has a vision on how we will reach the Prem. It won't come cheap. I tried having this conversation on here but continually got shot down for being anti Doug. All I got back was it would be our club paying for Frank and whoever he brought in and it wouldn't cost him anything. Prices like this...

Very fine lines it seems. If we had made it to only our second FA cup Final in our history nobody could have tried to make out the season was anything but a success. But our 4th goal was given offside by a very narrow margin with only seconds to go. Does that mean Robins is only suited to...

Have read the link you put up on the subject where you said it showed he was friends with Robins. It didn't mention them being friends or he was chosen by Robins.
