    Match Thread Coventry City - Preston North End FC Match Thread - Friday 23rd Feb

    I believe our squad is better or as strong as the other teams competing for the 6th place.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Preston North End FC Match Thread - Friday 23rd Feb

    Our squad was improved in Jan but not as much as Ronins wanted or King and Austin planned. That’s football. our squad is better than West Brom, Iosw, Norwich, Preston, etc …. Let’s stop pretending the problem is the lack of resources ….

    Robins has to own that one

    The players undoubtedly got it wrong but Robins got the initial team selection wrong, waited too long to act, then got the change in formation wrong.

    If you don’t think Torp has improved our midfield may I suggest football isn’t for you ….

    Robins has to own that one

    Robin’s got it wrong tonight. we knew Preston would press hard and be physical yet we ignored the more physical and experienced Kitchin and Bidwell in favour of Binks and Da Silva . He waited until half time to alter anything and somehow managed to make us even less effective in the second...

    Mason-Clark

    Wanting first option on the player is not the same as saying we want to sign the player. It sounds to me a similar situation to the Sakamoto transfer. We were watching EMC but whilst doing so another player has caught our eye. However we are not yet certain we want him but we want to be kept...

    Mason-Clark

    I thought Randall’s running was strong but his finishing was poor.

    Mason-Clark

    I thought King asked for the option but I’m not sure it was actually agreed.

    EMC in cruise control tonight …. Lovely weight of pass, composed, strong on the ball, good awareness….. created 2 and put the through ball through for the pen

    Match Thread Stoke City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 17th Feb

    I think the truth at the time was that Dublin was happy to go and the club were happy for him to go if the money was right. Financially we were a mess at the time.

    Uber for Matt?

    A bigger question for me is why we awarded him a new contract last summer ?!???

    Uber for Matt?

    Godden wasn’t good enough last season, and isn’t this. For me he’s not a legend. He had a great promo season in lg1 and has made a solid contribution in the championship. Legends deliver much more than that. I do think he’s probably a very good senior pro in the club and one Robins has loved...

    Match Thread Plymouth (A)- Wednesday 14th Feb

    If you use basic stats there isn’t … if you know football and go to the matches there is a marked difference. I agree however that neither is terrifying.

    We were heavily linked with Whittaker last summer … Will be interesting to see him play.

    Mad fact from facebook

    Although the guy in sky blue fan cast said the play off run last season be invaluable experience for the kids this season 😂 most were not even at the club !

    Unhappy Robins

    I agree they are a risk but that risk has been created by Robins changing formation mid season after we had completed a huge overhaul of the playing squad in the summer. EMC will help in the summer and I’m sure we will look to bring in another wide player too. Im sure our play off rivals will...

    Unhappy Robins

    Every manager always wants more … pep wanted Declan Rice, Jurgen wanted Caicedo Arteta wanted Toney Robins did get the winger / forward in EMC but as Darragh has confirmed Posb changed the deal on the day twice. You can’t blame King for that. Our squad is good enough to push for a play off...

    Unhappy Robins

    Not a very smart move then. There is only boss and it isn’t Robins. Implying criticism of your owner in public doesn’t normally end well for any manager ….. I think Robins is a brilliant manager and we are lucky to have him but he can’t possibly complain that he hasn’t been backed this season ….
