If we play like we did today, we will be out of it by 20 minutes. If we play like we can, we will be in the game in the final 20 minutes. I would have started Binks today for him to stake a claim.

I wonder what the reason to take Thomas and Bidwell off halftime as they were not the standout poor performers (relatively speaking). Injuries, fatigue or a spat?

Agree totally.

I don't think we would get a performance like that with either Kelly or McFadzean on the pitch. Why Kelly hasn't been used more is confusing.

Eccles and Simms were two players who at least showed willing to be physical. Can't think of anyone else.

Still disagree?!

Stagnant at the back and Collins needs to be braver.

People knock Tavares but he gives far more than Wright.

Wright has to come off. Offering absolutely nothing. If he has a knock why the hell is he playing back to back games?

Get players on who want to graft and keep them in at Wembley if they do. Wright has been half-heartedly jogging around. Not good enough. I imagine some players will be pleased to be subbed thinking that they will be fit to start the semi. Hope O'Hare, Kelly, Eccles and Tavares come on at HT.

Too many of these types of performances to deserve a play off spot

Diabolical. Rowett totally done Robins but effort of some players is pathetic.

Need Van Ewijk back at right back and Latibeudiere coming off. They certainly want this game far more than us.

Missing Eccles at the moment. Torp not in the game.

This is probably the most crucial league game of our run in. Psychologically there will be players who will be holding back a little with the semi final in mind, not necessarily consciously but it's bound to happen. Once the Man Utd game is done, they can go full throttle every game - unless we...

Hopefully Van Ewijk will be okay. Looked like a rib injury. Better second half but couldn't be much worse. Tavares was bright. Palmer's first pass was sublime for Simms chance. Should have started unless he had a knock. Binks has so much quality on the ball. Moves it much quicker. Kitching...

That was pretty dreadful. The keeping for the second was like an 8 year old. Pathetic. Wright back to early season poor form. I have hardly seen Sheaf touch the ball. O'Hare highly ineffective. Hopefully Palmer will be on after HT to inject some desire and impetus. My only hope is that the wind...

Tactics are obviously always important but even more crucial against this Saints team. They will keep possession very well and given the amount of football we have played lately, I don't think we will have the legs to press high up the pitch. I think we will need to be defensively solid and hope...
