Didn’t someone on this board mention someone spewing nonsense on the CWR phone in saying we should sack Robins and play 4-4-2? Or was that just @Grendel? Low blow, I know!

Madness. There are games when Biamou played ‘better’ in open play than the likes of Godden or Walker. The difference is that the latter two will take the chances they get. Games like Luton away shown exactly why we need to move on and improve the squad. We can’t be missing two 1v1s before going...

The guy must be kidding? Armstrong, McGoldrick, Wilson, Clarke, McNulty, Godden and Walker at least!

It’s a balancing act and always has been for Labour Tory Remainers were more willing to vote for Brexit than there were to vote potentially remaining in the EU under a Labour government led by Corbyn. Simultaneously, Labour Leave voters abandoned the party to vote the Brexit Party or...

Was it? The UKIP vote in 2015 was largely similar to the Brexit Party vote in 2019 in the constituencies they actually stood in. Labour should’ve done one of two things to mitigate the electoral wipeout: 1) Went all in with the 2nd referendum option as the Lib Dem’s did 2) Accepted Brexit and...

With all due respect, this kind of thinking is exactly why Labour finds itself out of touch with the electorate. The party just doesn’t seem capable of confronting its own electoral failures. Generally, its traditional working class base feels like the Labour Party is a party for the cities and...

Not really true, is it? Labour haemorrhaged votes on both sides of the Brexit debate. Lost around 1 million votes to the Lib Dem’s and the Greens and about 800 thousand votes to the Brexit Party and the Tories. The Remainer’s were not happy happy with Labour lack of commitment to a second...

Very clearly, Jaime Allen is POTY.

If Biamou stuck away more of his chances, perhaps he’d be offered a new contract. Overall, he’s played a decent role this season. Some of his performances have surpassed expectations. We have two better strikers. As a club looking to consolidate our Championship status, it’s best the parties...

We have two good strikers with good strike rates this season. In all competitions, Walker scored a goal per 240 minutes and Godden scored every 255 minutes. That could roughly translate to a goal every three games. For comparison, Biamou scored every 350 minutes. Bearing in mind that both...

Hiwula made most of his appearances off of the wing.

The market might not be as depressed as last season as things start to open up and clubs can expect to have fans back in stadiums. Personally, I was surprised at how long it took for Hiwula to get a club. Something must be going on with him as he’s really fell since his first season with us.

Bakayoko will do fine at a L1 or top L2 team. He probably needs a team where he’ll get plenty of game time to build his confidence. Unfortunately, despite a promising preseason, he hasn’t shown any evidence he can have a meaningful impact in the Championship. Highly likeable figure and...

Walker scored 8 goals in 33 appearances and about 12 of those appearances were made off the bench (below 45 minutes played). A goal every 240 minutes is a good return for a player playing his first season in the Championship on a team fighting relegation for most of the season. In Tyler Walker...

Full disclaimer: I was bricking it and very nervous going into that game after Rotherham had beating QPR. But, even had we lost it wouldn’t have been game over in my view. Robins has done really well this season to adapt to a host of injuries. He didn’t double down on ‘the box’ that makes us so...

I acknowledge this was too soon to have called it, but I felt like Rotherham were destined for relegation when we beat them 3-1 at home. Rotherham were always in a false position because their games in hand. Generally, the sense of paranoia on this board in relation to our own position...

The parties couldn’t agree to a ‘progressive alliance’ which would rally behind the party best poised to topple the Tory MP in a given constituency. It was astounding that the Lib Dems and Labour couldn’t agree to stand aside in marginals. You had a Lib Dem candidate in Kensington saying vote...

We were consistently 6-7 points above the relegation zone. If anything, you’re reading into a poor run of form against two very good teams away (B’mouth and QPR). Lets also put this into perspective. Biamou made the most appearances as a striker this season. Our 4th choice going into the...

No. We need to keep progressing. With a fully fit Godden and Walker to rely on, you’d think we’d have a lot more goal scoring capability which hampered us for a lot of this season. I don’t think it’s far fetched to think to say we’d be a few points better off those two being fully fit alone...

Things like this is why I just don’t think Labour will learn the lessons it needs to. Next election could be even more of a wipe out.
