Tantrums ‘R’ Us when we lose a game. Often without thinking about the bigger picture or long term.

He hits the ball first… what difference is it if he hits the ball slightly harder?!

Probably the best option but not exactly a silver bullet that takes away the danger. Hull get a shot off from 10-12 yards out? In short, Thomas puts Collins in a really difficult position and the goal is somehow Collins fault? The manager doesn’t need one scapegoat like fans. A good manager...

It’s not really MR’s fault he’s scored 1 league since September - he signed the new contract after a fantastic burst of goals in August.

This is where I disagree strongly. If you watched last night, as soon as Sheaf went off we lost our ability to progress the ball - a lot of side-to-side passing. It’s not our strongest area of depth at all. If we’re in a position where we require Lati and Burroughs end up playing CM for us...

Yes and no. First things first, there has to be a mitigation that we just look leggy and don’t have the depth required to keep the team fresh. However, looking at our results against the top half teams - it’s awful. Last season, we didn’t lose those big games and this season is the opposite...

All due respect to Oggy, he played GK at a point where they didn’t play with their feet. I was in block 31 so had a pretty good view of it and I genuinely don’t believe he could’ve hit it first time to the sides because their striker was on top of him. The options in my mind were: 1) take the...

Not defending Collins at all. Every player is replaceable and as we move up the levels, we need to continually improve it we get left behind. It’s a ruthless business. With Kelly leaving, we will be signing a CM and Robins won’t be signing just a back up. That would be against the concept of...

So he finished the season as their number 1, is that right or are we splitting hairs?

I share the same concerns with We also have the best midfield in the league apparently… Results against top half teams say otherwise. The stats do make a solid case for Sheaf to be one of, if not the best midfielder but his absence is sorely missed whenever he’s off the pitch.

He was until he got injured and they got a loanee in. Was their number 1 when they finished in the playoffs too.

In Oggy’s own words, he’d have conceded a red card and a penalty to save face. Even if Hull miss said penalty, it’s advantage to Hull. Not really constructive, is it?

I wonder if Robins agrees we need a new number 1…

3 times in 5 years - we’re not off target are we? It’s not unreasonable to get some bodies in for next season and have a right go at playoffs with a flirtation of automatics. We’ve achieved a lot this season and a lot of younger players will naturally develop and improve. We have invested...

We’re short in a lot of areas and the season has caught up us. Having to play Hull a few days after the semi-final was a difficult ask. In the priorities I outlined earlier in the thread show how short we are in places. We play 4-2-3-1 and going into next season we have; 2 recognised wingers, 3...

If we can win the golden glove with Ben Wilson in goal, that should tell you everything you need to know. My priority list and indeed the players our ITKs have shared, will not have changed. We have a lot of areas where we have 1-2 options I’m not going to repeat the same things in relation...

Had he smashed the result would’ve been the same - it ricochets off the forward and goes in. If the pass was any weaker the forward would’ve got there first.

What did Oggy say he would’ve done? In his day he could pick up back passes.

If we can, then we should. We signed Bidwell when we were a mid table side and our trajectory as a club has changed since then. If JDS played like he did last night, week in and week out, he would be first choice.

Robins has come and said the goal was due to a misplaced back pass so we know where the blame lies internally. Thomas having an otherwise good game doesn’t change that it was his fault. He was knackered and made the same mistake twice which lead to a goal. It’s no good kicking off at Collins...
