Same as Maddison, between the whistles they’re just another opposition player, before/after they’re both players with strong ties to the club back for the first time, let people clap if they want.

We had four kids and three keepers on the bench last game. Do we have a big squad?

TBH Id have loaned a LWB or a wide/forward player. I don’t think another kid is what we need in the middle.

Old man Saka… Defence desperately needs experience. Midfield less so, but still vital to have as an option.

Average cost for a dozen eggs is $3.

Now who is being emotional?

8 points off anything with 31 games to go isn’t finished.

Then we sack him and give the new guy 18 months? I think that cadence is far too slow to efficiently find the next good manager.

It’s basically been a bad first block of ten games.

Well down to 8th since Sunderland. But when Robins was sacked our last five games were what? 4th?

And if we don’t see it? Do we give him two windows to change it, then if we start poor next season pull the trigger again? Then that guy won’t be expected to do anything for a season cos he’s new? When is a reasonable point to say it’s not working?

So forgetting league position we’re expecting these players not to put in another performance like Derby?

And sounds like no matter how crap we are you’ll pretend it’s the right decision and robins would have been worse. Our recent form, that lead to his sacking, is play off form. Thats the bare minimum to maintain where we were going.

The idea of “playoff form” “relegation form” is nonsense really. Not many teams average the same ppg consistently throughout the season. Robins has shown that even with a start like we’ve had you can expect a top ten finish. Whatever comes in has to be better than that.

Sacking a manager who has never had a bad season is harsher. “That’s football” Whoever it is has been brought in for instant success. If they aren’t better than the last seven years then they’ve failed.

If there were 15 to go it wouldn’t even be a lot. The season is still wide open.

We are 8 points off the playoffs.

All the best managers are socialist, everyone knows this.

As always not sure if playing the fool, but Sisu didn’t touch the football side. Robins didn’t rock the boat about non-football and they didn’t about football. There were terrible owners in every other respect. Hence me making this meme:

This is exactly how the management merry go round works though. New guy comes in, can’t be judged this year, starts poorly next having spent for two windows, new guy comes in, can’t be judged this year…
