Not a Robins signing but you'd argue that McGoldrick's career turned round with his loan spell mostly under Robins

That stupid dickhead King and his aversion to loans also misses that they've been hugely successful trials for subsequent signings

The league form had stuttered a bit before then. Remember the 3-0 home defeat to Preston? Or the poor performance in the big game at West Brom.

Robins himself knows that it's your last result that matters

I'd have Edwards here

He was quite beastly to a team mate in a game recently so he's out, we can't have that sort of passion

As pissed off as I was at the end of the game I'm inclined to say he deserves a chance until at least Christmas. The reasons for that are: 1. He's lost / had to rebuild a team losing some absolutely key players in terms of their ability and / or experience and / or character 2. He's said that...

He didn't really, there is just no intensity or intent to anything he does. It all just looks so half arsed.

He was on for 33 minutes 3 passes made 1 out of 3 duals won 2 shots of which 0 were on target Wasn't fouled, didn't give away any fouls. He just nothing at all to force a change in the course of the game, not aggressive or disruptive.

Indeed, that purple patch looks like a blip really. Even before the cup run got going you'd say our performances declined after the Leicester game in January.

It's hardly an issue in relation to the latter.

Just as we were last autumn at Deepdale, it feels like the time is coming to call time on the current formation and set up. It's (and you cannot ignore the end of last season regardless of a couple of changes of personnel) almost a half season worth of games where the form is relegation level...

Today was like 90% of his game time for us

I'm getting to the conclusion that Robins does not know what to do, something seems to work but he's unsure why it did. The system we switched to last season only worked well with certain players with certain attributes which we just don't have. We have no clear pattern of play apart from going...

Rudoni barely involved, he's too far forward again which means we're constantly outnumbered in midfield. We've never looked as disorganised under Robins as we do at the moment.

What is happening in training? The intensity might be too high if the players can't sustain two games in a week. Wednesday played a day later.

The character assessment of the players obviously needs some work as they appear unable to motivate themselves

Friday night isn't the same as another week night to be fair

If he'd made 0 key passes in the game that'd be pretty poor wouldn't it?

It's in the same genre as xG, weirdly hypocritical take
