Seems like it was pretty much all us. Was Enobokhare playing for them?

Damn - it doesn't just happen to Clive Eakin!!

I'm presuming that's just a guess on your part. The most obvious TV game to my mind is Harrogate v Peterborough.

In judging non league players stepping up it's always useful to factor in the benefits of full time training, and not having to do another job, with the added tiredness and stress that might bring.

Presuming Godden is still unavailable the only change I see is Kelly in, probably for Westbrooke, allowing Walsh to play a little more advanced. Noticed Walters did really well for the U23's the other day, so he might be a long shot to give us a different option off the bench.

Good points made, but it looks like Robins is favouring McCallum over Mason at the moment, not that I'm personally bothered too much about which one plays, as I think their pretty much on a par. Mason has better tactical awareness, while McCallum offers more physicality to the defence. However I...

Just do the same as in Rugby - once the clock runs out, the final whistle/ hooter goes when the ball is next dead, apart from if there is a foul, when the game should still continue.

I read an analysis of Prem games a couple of seasons back, where as I remember the ball is very rarely 'in play' for more than 55 minutes of any game. With that as a reference point I can see some logic in a change being made somewhere in the future, to playing 2 halves of 30 minutes, and using...

I think Kelly will definitely start, with Kastaneer most likely dropping out. Shipley had a good couple of games prior to last week, and I see no way MR will drop him on the back of a performance where only O'Hare played half decently.

11 Prem, 4 Championship & 1 League 1 team isn't the balance I expected given we've only had one historical period in the top flight, albeit quite a lengthy one.

I know it's not always reliable to take CWR at their word, but Eakin was saying League suspensions are not carried into this competition.

Absolutely no chance of Everton going for Robins

Yes he played well in that game, but otherwise he hasn't been as good as I hoped or expected. I haven't given up hope as he clearly was a good player for Burton, but he has to cut out the sloppy errors, as there have simply been too many of them. I also expected him to be more dominant in the...

Kelly gives us a better shape and balance no doubt and I'm sure he will start against Tranmere, but his culpability in the 3rd goal seems to have been generally overlooked in the rush to hang McFadzean.

Agree with Kelly getting 60 minutes. If McFadzean is suspended next weekend I can see him playing in this game to help keep him ticking over & get over that nightmare game yesterday.

McFadzean isn't an 'old style' centre half. He was brought to the club by Robins as a ball playing defender, as that was the style Robins wants the team to play. If he wanted a traditional centre back I'm sure he would have kept Tom Davies. Playing this way will occasionally lead to calamitous...

McFadzean overdoes the keep ball style at the back and is a bit of an accident waiting to happen, although I guess it did actually happen today (as well as Portsmouth earlier in the season). He's also not very quick, as the mix up from the Kelly pass back really showed. I thought Rose and Hyam...

I'm not so sure - we have lost a lot of fans who are now out of the habit of going. We could only hope for 17-20k if we were at the top end of the league. If we are towards the bottom end we would do well to average 15k.

Like when we played at Northampton :) Looks like a very mischievous post - I see it was posted as a 'Transfer Rumour', so unless the OP comes up with something to back it up I think this should be closed.

A game I remember that season was against Barnsley. We were cruising something like 4-1, with Joe Cole scoring a quality free kick. We then imploded a little and were lucky to hang onto a 4-3 win. I'm pretty sure at this point Barnsley were in the relegation zone, but still ended up getting...
