Expecting us to win against Accrington Stanley, where we have made up over half the crowd, is now asking too much OK

To be fair, making up over half the crowd doesn't win games.

Robins needs to sort it out, were setup all wrong today and strange subs.

Ponticelli on 85 is pointless as it was last week, there's no point then.

When we just shrug
When we just argue who to blame
When we call each other names
When we accept failure
When we say, we're in this league for a reason blah blah blah
When we say, we can't play the big club any more

It's time to pack it in and choose a glory team instead of this sh't

Why can't we string performances together? Fine, we lost to a team we were level on points with away from home, it's not as big a deal as some are making out but it would be nice for performances not to be so up and down.

Blame me, I've booked a holiday for playoff final weekend so we'll be stuck with playoffs now!

same as and didn't realise until the other day. At the moment I'd snap your hand off for a place in the play off final though!

1st half shambles. Didn’t trouble keeper. Second half improved and duck screwed a good chance wide. But didn’t really deserve anything from that. If jones not firing we are toothless and incapable of creating

14 goals in 13 games is nowhere near good enough. Once teams start figuring out how to score against us we're going to slump into midtable.

Isn't even as much Jones.

The midfield was non existent again. Stevenson was a spectator as was DKE.

Every time the strikers got it they had 3 defenders on them with no support whats so ever. At times it was Stokes up there down the left providing support.

Robins has no excuses this season I don't think, he is starting to look really stubborn with things.

Never will be able to understand the logic in bringing on substitutes after the 85th minute.

The most frustrating thing is I watched us beat Swindon away with a performance which had both good slick attacking and last death defending , we then follow up with 2 successive dog shit displays.

Any neutral watching that will see the result as pretty unfair. As a City fan I obviously think it's totally unjust but that's football for you at times.

Accrington Stanley created all of one chance all game and we absolutely played them off the park second half.

No need to hit the panic button. Next game is at home and we're a highly decent side in this division. Decent performance, multiple chances just not our day. Let's move onto Tuesday.

Stevenson was more than ok today but I guess we missed a little of the bite in midfield that Kelly brings. Doyle put in a good shift. Nazon is always a threat. I certainly don't buy into the argument that Jones was useless today. That's nonsense. Always a real danger and outlet. McNulty looked pretty sharp on his introduction. Biamou continues to grow in confidence.

I will offer just one more unpopular opinion. I'd like to see Beavon introduced earlier for Biamou when things are not quite rolling for us. Beavon is a highly decent link player from the midfield for Nazon.

Play up Sky Blues - we'll finish above those teams who've managed a couple of very lucky wins against us come the end of the season.

Yes DKE and stokes were very very poor. Biamou really did nothing today and duck did little. All in all an awful display.

Forest Green have conceded 31 goals. Maybe Tuesday is the chance to start turning round the goals scored column.

To be honest, we need to play for 90 minutes, not just 45. That would double our chances to get a result. We also need people to be braver in and around the box, have a shot instead of giving a sideways pass.

He's an old mate of mine Grendel - goes everywhere, is as passionate as anyone I've ever met about the City, and has the largest collection of CCFC memorabilia going. He's moaning because he cares (not because he's a moaner). Also - he will have had a few beers!!

Pile of shite. Get Kelly Evans out of that side, get biamou out of that side, even stokes has turned in consecutive poor performances. Not good enough, no desire, no passion and no goals. Nothing less than 6 out of 6 will be acceptable.

Whilst the majority of us are pissed off its not worth changing the team too much, leave the defence as is hope and pray Kelly is back because Stevenson isnt a player for league 2 football, DKE is a battler but the games are passing him by atm take him out the team and give him a rest like George T last season let him gain some confidence again and battle for his place back christ knows what we can do about the striking department though
