Surely it will be someone who is under 23 and has the potential to be sold for a few million.

Jeez. King out now. Who in though?

We were lucky with that L2 promotion. We were lucky with that L1 promotion. We were lucky winning the Checkatrade. We were lucky getting to the championship play offs. The fa cup run was built on luck.

Two things will play out now which will be instructive. The job Robins goes to next and how we do under his replacement.

Astounded by this. An absolute howler of a mistake. The club will regret this decision for a very long time.

Agree Chris. But I think the 5 at the back with Rudoni is a bust now and for me was never really a good thing. So we should move back to the formation this years intake we envisaged to be in.

There isn’t a more futile task than trying to predict results in the championship. The last two games are an absolute case in point. We aren’t in a relegation battle and nor will we be.

The pressure is not massive for Sunderland. That’s something just made up on here. For some it’s as basic as lose one = Robins out. It’s ridiculous.

I’m only referring to the final 20 minutes. The ball was never in our half

It’s interesting. For me, once we changed the formation we didn’t look much different than the first half v Luton. And many salivated over that. Agree the first half and some of the second was dire. But last half hour we did batter them.

65 mins too late for me.

In the same way we weren’t picking up any points from Luton or Boro?

Why do so many mistake an argument that says we aren’t in the midst of unfettered footballing Armageddon as excusing Robins? He’s having a non coherent spell of thinking. We’re suffering for it. But he’ll get it right. You’ll not find many people in any walk of life who get it right all the time.

Agree the tactics tonight were all wrong. Agree it was hugely disappointing. Disagree we only perform against 10 men. That’s just bollocks.

Exactly that. Surely over the last two seasons it’s been firmly established Sakamoto can only play wing and Wright (by far our best attacker) does best on the left side. Sometimes it’s very simple. Just play them there.

Hopefully the silver lining is we drop the ridiculous Rudoni at left wing back idea.

Thought Mason-Clarke looked OK. Do you want him to perform shuttle runs why the play is on the other flank?

Ridiculous argument. Once we sorted the formation we battered Derby. Shame it took 70 minutes to figure it out

Really disappointed with the tactical set up tonight. Derby were woeful. No need to play 5 at the back. If you do it has to be Torp in behind. But as poor as the first half was the overall scenario is nowhere near as bleak as some here are portraying. Derby parked the bus and got two rank goals...

Nah, we’ll probably go and win. Wrong formation tonight. Simple as that
