    Match Thread Bournemouth Match Thread

    It’s great that Robins wants to play a passing game, and play out from the back, but Bournemouth were switched on to it and we couldn’t deal with their press. The amount of suicidal passes between our back 5 was ridiculous. 3-1 was flattering for us. Against a strong opposition (which...

    I hope he gives Baka some minutes. He looked a different player pre-season, and would be really effective coming on for the last 20 if we're chasing or even defending a lead. Seems to prefer to bring on Walker to partner Godden and apart from the MK game it hasn't really worked (Bristol and...

    Agreed. Big fan of Shipley but in an attacking midfield position. In fact I wouldn’t mind seeing Shipley instead of Allen and Sheaf slotting into Defensive midfield for this one.

    I’m alright with this, and surely Mason must be being sold or loaned out. For me, Mason was a more than adequate back up for Giles. However surprised Norwich loaned him to us as he won’t be a guaranteed starter surely? Maybe Sam is not settling there and wanted back?

    I liked Chaplin as a player and was disappointed when he left. Sure he would fitted in just behind Godden last season, but we only got Godden as we sold Chaplin. The club need to make those kind of decisions, and it was the right one.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs QPR

    We have more than competed in the first 2 games. Think mid table should be the lowest of our ambitions. Slightly concerned that we looked blunt going forward until QPR scored though. Thought Baka should of come on as they were wide open at the back in the last 20.

    Never gave the ball away all night. Classy

    Match Thread Gillingham Away

    Apart from giving Rose & Dabo game time (45 mins max each) I wouldn't pick anyone involved against Bristol except Walker. Sheaf is too valuable for Friday to risk despite him needing game time. Our B Team are good enough to get something here

    MK Dons Player Ratings

    Defence was very shaky 1st half, a bang on form Championship side could of stuck 3 or 4 past us. We did improve 2nd half and Baka, Kelly and Walker gave us a threat. I am worried about the ball playing around our 6 yard box McFadz and Hyam don’t always look comfortable doing that, and a better...

    Match Thread Sky Blues v Boro (double header)?

    Feel a bit sorry for Max. He really made an impact on those crucial last games in the L2 promotion. Out for a year, then showed great attitude last season to get himself back in the picture, and scored goals. I would keep him around, as there’s plenty of players who have got better as they got...

    JCH

    Gotta say I was shocked when JCH starting banging in the goals at Bristol. I remember being at Charlton away in 2018, and thinking he was just so ineffective. Not a target man, not a pace merchant and didn't seem to get involved at all. Robins threw on Baka and Hiwula and we won the game with...

    Match Thread Swindon Town Friendly

    Wasn't Mason shunted out after 1 bad performance at Rotherham (although I think he was coming back from injury in that game). I too like Mason, he's quick, and can pick a pass, but I guess he's just not physical enough for Robins. Grimmer was similar, neat and tidy and got forward well, but he...

    I would say yes more than O'Hare, but does not have his battling skills and tenacity, so is a less effective player.

    Zain westbrooke

    Neat and tidy player, technically probably the best we had, but needs the game to be played at his rhythm to be an influence. A wet,physical midweek game at Millwall next season, and I think he'd struggle.

    Kastaneer

    There were flashes last year. Maybe the promotion will kick him into gear. With his size, perhaps he should be considered up front

    Conor Chaplin

    Always liked Chaplin, and I think he would of really pushed on this/last season. For me he is a number 10, so just behind Godden.

    Rose Rumour

    Rose is decent, and it would be disappointing to lose him, but we do have Pask who looks a player, and I always thought Morgan Williams looked decent. + the revenue might allow Robins a bigger budget. Would be far more concerned if we lost Dabo

    ‘If’ we are promoted what do we need to compete in Championship?

    Wonder if Robins will keep the 3-5-2 formation? We do have some players that might not fit into that system coming back (Jones & Jobello), and would Championship teams cut through us more easily? Would assume Robins will keep the 1 up front. Would like to keep Max, as he will be useful squad...

    Out of contract

    I would keep Baka. He's not a starter, but has always offered something off the bench + you never know he might turn into the kind of striker he should be. Would take him over Hiwula every day

    Next Season’s Kits

    City should never play in red (even the away kit). They should bring back the Brown kit.
