Looks like MR has been reading this forum and taken the advice of some of us. Hopefully we can go on from here and play a settled team and formation

But that's exactly my point. We should have been using pre-season games to much better effect, trialists and kids could / should have been played in 1 or 2 games but the whole point of pre-season is to get your starting team ready. We could have used training games to to try out trialists and...

I'm not one of those saying Robins should go, but having recently posted my worries, and got involved in discussions about how many games the team should be allowed before we start to panic, the statistics below shocked me a bit. If you include pre-season we have already played 11 games...

I deleted that bit just in case!

That's the problem with social media, so easy to type something you don't really mean, and I don't think Grendel meant he was pleased that Biamou got a major injury.

goes a long way to explaining why he was so crap when he was loaned back to us.

So subtle I had to google it. Strangely there are many towns & cities in UK with taxi companies with the number 555555. Must be some joined up thinking going on there at least.

I agree with that, but this is what worries me. Anecdotal comments about unrest and negativity at the club from several respected forum members (and others) The number of players used in the first 4 games (18) Multiple different systems played in the first 4 games Body language of some players...

Its not really about panicking or adapting to a new league though is it? There is clearly something wrong at the club which, unless sorted quickly will drag us down. We had money to spend in the close season, and it's not unreasonable to expect the majority of that to be spent wisely on players...

4 games in and 18 players used. 4 changes from Saturday's winning team. To me this is a bit concerning

Ponti's stats since April Notts C - 13 minutes on the pitch - 1 goal Crawley - 90 minutes on the pitch - 2 goals Stevenage 90 minutes on the pitch - 0 goals Lincoln - 13 minutes on the pitch Cheltenham -11 minutes on the pitch Morecambe - unused sub Notts C playoff - 18 minutes on the pitch...

Yes, Bayliss is an exceptional talent and that was obviously recognised at the club prior to his first senior game. But that doesn't explain why Ponti has been overlooked this season from a first team place point of view. Ponti started 2 or 3 games at the start of last season, and then was...

I may have got that wrong then, but I still think Ponti didn't get a fair chance last season, after his 2 goals against Crawley following on from his goal from the bench against Notts C. He didn't really play much of a part after that except against Stevenage, and a few late sub appearances. I...

Wasn't it the case that MR thought Bayliss wasn't ready until persuaded otherwise? Despite some evidence to the contrary, I think MR can sometimes be over cautious with our own young players. Ponti had a run of a couple of games in the first team last season and just started to show some real...

There were only 5 words in his post, 3 out of 5 isn't bad

I think by 5pm this evening the Taxi for Robins thread will re-appear

Last year at times we looked awful, yet in the playoff semi 2nd leg and in the final we looked the best team in L2. I'm not sure if I'm encouraged by that or not. The other thing about last year is we didn't seem to know our best team and formation any time during the season until we got...

I think MR will have to decide between Andreu and Bayliss now

Infinite monkey theorem. Sign enough players, one of them will come good.
