Despite all the ‘moments of madness’, and the mistakes that led to goals, he was still voted by other L2 managers to have been the best GK they have seen all season. Managers, who, unlike the vast majority of us on here, has seen every GK play against their team and the name who stuck out for...

Or would it...? BBC News - Can alcohol help a football team's performance?

Oh, and Bayliss. A significant of people seen your twitter antics on that! Pick your next youngster to pick on, he’ll probably end up being a superstar too!

‘one of Robins' only recruitment errors thus far and we need a senior keeper in pronto’ We’re in a league with an abundance of ‘senior keepers’, yet our GK has been judged by fellow football managers, not statistics, to be the best in the league. He’s made 3 howlers which he has directly led to...

Is there anymore left? Just got back in from work and gutted I could be missing out on this

It’s not for sure either way. It’s certainly a silver lining of his injury! Leeds were in for him, so I think even if we sold him, there was a chance we’d get him back on loan. Or failing that, we’d free up resources or at least have a bit (not a lot) of any transfer fee (I think we’d have held...

I don’t like the ambiguity! Attempting to apply some common sense, you’d think it was an extension on his contract which I assume would’ve expired at the end of the 2016/17 season. So that would mean it would expire at the end of of 18/19 season. Most youth contracts have a year option too...

What do the other managers of the league know? We've got a few ex-GKs who maybe played a god-awful standard on the odd-Sunday who now it all!

Bear in mind, we’re playing away to Notts County... playing 4-3-3 might not be the best idea. Or playing Biamou on the wing for that matter, he’s just not a wide player at all. A narrowish 4-3-3 against Crawley or Stevenage, but not away to the team with the least amount of losses. Also, if...

Had the team been announced at the end of the season, he may have got it. Accrington have conceded 2 less than us, but that was before we went and conceded 6 on Monday and voting obviously had been by then. It does seem that every other week, our GK, be it Burge or LOB, seems to pull off a...

Yeah, only an ex-Ireland international in Forde, and a former championship and Czech international in Stech. #BurgeOut

Leon Barnett was horrendous that game. I’m usually someone who stays till the final whistle. But that game I had enough after about 70m — utterly pathetic performance and probably the earliest I’ll ever leave a match!

Armstrong was stuck on 18-19 for about a month or two. McNulty scored a hat trick 2 games ago. He’s still scoring roughly 1 every 3 games — which is perfectly fine. His 18 goals in 36 appearances equates to a goal every 2 games. Scoring a goal every 162 minutes, more than Eisa (165m), and equal...

I love how people like yourself simply gloss over the fact that our best player has had a season ending injury 19 games into the season. Lincoln’s manager called him ‘the best player in the division’, and I don’t think he’s too far off. At full strength, I think autos is a reasonable...

If we had Jones for 30-35 games this season, I’d be more concerned like you. Same with Andreu, those two in the team changes so much. We probably did have a Top 3 team, but atm, we’re missing Willis, Andreu and Jones. If you want to analyse the situation we’re in properly, you cannot just gloss...

He’s been consistently one of the best strikers at L2 level for as long as memory serves me. I’d happily have him in our team. Agreed. We’ve been blessed to have some really good GKs over the years (after relegation); Hedman, Steele, Fulop, Marshall, Westwood (we had Westwood and Marshall at...

Does that mean he’s under contract till 2019 or 2018? Because 2 years from the tweet would be November 2018! I really hope the telegraph is right for once, and his contract is till 2019 with an option to take it to 2020!

If that was the criteria, why are there 3 Luton defenders, and only one Cov defender? We have a better defensive record... Also, both Forde (Cambridge) and Stech (Luton) have more clean sheets.

I think we need to put this season into perspective. We’ve signed, what? 15 odd players? We've totally rebuilt our squad from the bottom up. How many players have remained in the squad from last season? Willis, Burge, Haynes/Stokes and now Reid? I think Robins has signed the right kind of...

Hilarious. All the criticism he gets from Cov fans... Gets in L2 team of the year hahaha! Willis also made L2 team of the year — some folk suggested we should’ve sold him...
