The point is for £45m you should be able to put out a winning Championship side. Not whatever it is we’ve seen so far.

But we’ve been shit and the general response had been “no worries cos Sheaf coming back will change that”

No the implication is after £45m spend your squad should be resistant to the injury of one player.

He’s also said he’s not really involved. Who knows. I’d have thought a budget decision can be arrived at between the manager and chairman as easily as the director of football and chairman. My issue is who do you sack when you need to change things? Adding layers of bureaucracy in just muddies...

Just let the guy who has ultimate responsibility for what’s on the pitch do it. I really don’t see why you wouldn’t.

I feel like there’s been pressure to spend on young players with resale value and that’s very admirable, but no recognition within that that we’ve lost a lot of experience and character in the last two years. I was just looking at the playoff lineup and every position was either a leader or a...

That’s been the case for forever tbh

I know. I was agreeing that the idea the winter fuel payment would crash the economy was bollocks. Strongest growth from what base? Stop getting distracted by quarterly figures. Look at the medium view: Or even the long view

No the winter fuel allowance thing is bollocks. What crashed the economy was pointless unfunded tax cuts to the tune of tens of billions. Labour could and should just reverse the ludicrous NI cut Hunt threw in before he was kicked out. The inherited economy is fucked. I don’t see how you can...

One bright spot is I can see the rumoured Simms for Billing transfer as fixing a bit of this. Bassette if he’s been brought in to ultimately replace Simms being a bit more aggressive, Billing comes in with PL standards and experience in the middle. Sheaf becomes made of the Weetabix stuck on...

Our good teams had a mix of older pros with standards, younger players with ambition, and outright winners like Vik. Can see a bit of the latter in Bassette, but I don’t see that dog in a lot of our new signings. And our experienced pros (Wilson, Bidwell, Allen) don’t seem like the right...

Im convinced they’re told to keep their shape in possession just in case they lose it.

OK well discount everyone more than three years ago. Now Rudoni is the most expensive and also one of the oldest signings from L1, and EMC and Kitching are numbers 3 and 5 of the top five and the eldest by a clear three years. Whatever way you cut it, we’ve massively overpaid for L1 talent.

No. If we played the same and somehow flukes a win this forum would still be wondering how we won with one of the worst 45 mins of football Robins has ever produced.

Love this weird right wing delusion that’s popped up that you just ask workers for productivity improvements. Where have you guys been for the last 40 years? We needed you! Or that your pay not being cut is a “large pay rise”. Why do right wingers wants everyone to be poor yet claim to be...

Hahahahaha. OK mate.

Think it’s absolute madness tbh.

He took the words right out of my mouth…
