I think most people now accept that sacking Robins when we did was the correct decision.

Not that I disagree, but it's exactly the same as your attitude to Robins. The same complete and utter lack of objectivity. So, even if the complaints are justified, you're not the right person to be making them, because it's exactly what you did under the previous manager.

He's a drama queen and has the constitution of a jelly; I don't think he wants us to lose, though.

Or perhaps: "Your flat caps are fucking shit!"

Mention of Kalvin Phillips always cheers me up.

"Coventry on a Carr chase". Still waiting for that one to go through.

Of course it is. His limitations are what they are, and to avoid them being exploited, he should be used in a way that doesn't expose them. I agree that he needs to be replaced, but until he is, we can't keep setting up as if he were a different player, or the same things will keep happening.

David Armstrong, presumably. A proper tufty, you don't see footballers (or men under 60) who look like him anymore.

I'd forgotten it; I remembered we went down to 9, but couldn't remember who was sent off or why. I can remember their keeper's own goal, and the expression on his face afterwards, clear as day, though.

Well remembered! The second Richard Shaw yellow! :ROFLMAO:

I think that one was for a foul on Bergkamp (or Bergkamp dived). Viera was also sent off for them, if I have the right game. It was a proper humdinger.

All of those handball decisions look ridiculous now.

Quite possibly. It would explain why we had two penalty takers, and it was at a time when Killer started fluffing them more often than scoring.

I was on the kop for that game, quite close to the Forset fans. For some reason, they had this thing where whenever anything exciting happened, they'd jiggle (it's the only way I can think to describe it) their arms in the air and shout, 'it's enough to make your arms go wooo-oooooo-oooo!' It...

Wannabe.

Brau was a punt and probably not expected to be anything other than a bit-part player this season. Woolfenden was not, he was intended as an immediate first team player, same as Thomas and Kitching.

Something weird with Woolfenden, as if he can't get a game over Kitching, who's so out of form and bereft of confidence that he's a hindrance, then something must be wrong.

This is on the manager though. Until he can get in the players that suit the system he wants to play, he has to tailor the system to our players' strengths and weaknesses. Dasilva's what he is; he's not going to grow or find pace, so you have to work within those confines. Asking a player to...

He was. Possibly the most naturally gifted player I've seen play for us. Not to say the most effective, but the most technically proficient.
