I don't have an agenda v Sheff, I look at stats which suggests Barton is a better player, which IMO, he is. I don't have an agenda against any Cov player, whereas a lot of people have an agenda v Murphy.

I don't see your logic in wanting to keep Thorn for 10 games, even when you have hindsight! :facepalm: The decision process took 3 weeks, and to end up with MR, and how we playing at the minute... It was definitely worth the wait.

Back to his best? Nowhere near! He's scored hardly any in the league. He's been an improvement from last season performance wise, but, he isn't the McSheffrey we seen before he went Brum.

We seemed to miss them runs in the middle yesterday, when we won 4-1 away to second.

Oh ok, I just asking out of curiosity, I heard Christie to Newcastle and Stoke last season but they have cooled their interest, or have they? Murphy to Brum, that'd be a good move for him.

I think Barton is a better player, scored more, and if given more games at AMC, I'm sure he'll surpass McSheff in the assist department.

Where you hear/see/ them rumours?

He hasn't been that good, been good, but not the catalyst you state, if anyone deserves that, it has to be Baker, remind me how many assists he has (1, maybe 2) over the last 2 games and 9 goals. I don't think Robins said that about Barton, he said he's a player you build your team around...

Baker in, Sheff out.

Score lots of goals = starting place

Work rate isn't the be all and end all, good to have, yes, but Barton is pretty hard working and is a better player IMO, so should start.

If you make promises, and you don't keep them, in football, you deserve the sack, why wait 10 games when you [the board] know things aren't going to change, I'm glad the old regime are gone. Remind me how effective McG was before Robins was brought in? Hmmm :thinking about: AT and Shaw...

That's what I'm saying, we're no longer going to draw 2-2 when we're 2-0 up imo

True, but McSheff is supposed to be a goalscorer? I agree with what you're saying, but on the point about Barton coming on when the game is won: you can only impress in the time you're on, he's done well every time he's come on, his assist to McG was very good which killed the Colchester game...

You say clawed back 3, but how many times have we conceded first? We score 1st in most of our games, which is encouraging, I also think the old habits of the 'ancient regime' ae being eradicated, throwing away wins and conceding late on etc.

Do you think our team now is better this season or the last? 2011/2012 (how I'd play it): -----------------------Murphy------------------------- --Clarke*------Keogh-----Cranie-----Hussey-- ------------------------Clingan----------------------...

The fact remains, he lost 3 winnable games, 4th v Tranmere I wasn't surprised to lose. I thought his squad selection was a sick joke. Kilbane LM!? Brown on the pitch!? Elliott? Losing 4-1 to Shrewesbury... More out of his depth than Thorn, when he moved from the diamond to 4-4-2 was it for me.

I would label him a failure - for sure. I feel Shaw made a massive dent in our hopes of promotion as the effects of that regime made it difficult for MR to start with, hence his post match comments v Carlisle. I feel the draws v Yeovil and Sheff U weren't too bad, Yeovil got off to a flyer...

I was relieved when he was sacked tbh, I thought he should've got sacked at the end of the season, when he was staying on I gave him chance, and I was frustrated to see us drop 3 straight leads, and only play well for periods, team was 'gelling' as they say, but it wasn't good enough. The...

I never said their admin was undeserved. Donny didn't get tanked every game. There were a lot of things AT did wrong, but, who's to say other managers wouldn't make similar mistakes? We dropped many points from winning positions, that was bad, a ridiculous amount in the last 15m, I blame...
