Come on -it’s a miracle we are where we are. We were never going to be in the hunt - without Wright I doubt we’d have won any games under Robins this season. I think we may make the play offs but this squad isn’t good enough

It was a miracle last season and the season before too , not sure how its relevant , we are in bad form and not playing particularly well

If enough interest comes from the top flight or Europe he’ll surely be gone.

if your Collins and you know if you fuck up again your gonna get slaughtered then that makes the goal even worse, its simple even if he stays on his line and doesn’t do anything they don’t score, and as for binks‘s effort

I’m curious re Wilson. Is he still recovering from injury or not ?

When Lampard came into the job he said everyone would be given a chance. I guess alluding to something along the lines of the slate is wiped clean and everyone is looked at with a fresh pair of eyes.

Yet here we are still stuck with a guy in goal who is costing the team one game after the other and Wilson hasn’t played first team football once since Lampard arrived.

Was it Collins who got sent off?

Regardless of the goalkeeping boo-boos, the whole team has not played well for several games now. Dovin or anyone else does not fix that - we were solidly beaten today.

It was fairly even when it was 10v10 , a team will always be in control a man up

Know what, in hindsight yea it is. I shouldn't have said career ending


Something to force Lampard to pick Wilson however, none of us will be averse to that

We weren't.

We were facing 11 against 10 for most of the game against a team whose main tactic was to sling the ball in the box. Despite the pressure, they never really looked like benefiting from that.

Your in denial mate.
We were in the playoffs, loosing to Derby, Plymouth and Luton have (probably) cost us a chance of promotion.

There's no doubt that Collins has cost us points in those games. A point today would of made a huge difference, making a couple of great saves means fuck all when you then gift the points to Luton with an absolute howler.

Well if we fail to beat Middlesbrough we will never have to see him in our goal ever again.

I'll celebrate that like fucking promotion.

Which is why I would have said the sending off was far more consequential than who we picked in goal today, but there we go. The game was extremely one-sided for reasons completely separate from Brad Collins.

Anyone who can say for sure that Wilson would have done better today is just making it up. The guy has played six games in the last 12 months and is coming off an apparently serious knee injury.

Well sign an emergency keeper then. What are the rules on this. Please someone answer

I personally think they'll come to their senses and play Wilson against Boro.

Coming down to final game they'll won't take the risk...I don't think.

Yes but they didn’t really have clear cut chances. The goal would be quite a high xG because the GK decided to go missing.

He made a couple of decent saves, and one very good one.

But that counts for nothing when you are not able to judge when it's appropriate to come and when it is not. This is also an issue with him, not just that his save percentage is low.

He was having a solid game until that mistake. We all know he’s not good enough and I don’t understand why Wilson hasn’t had a chance.

Hasn’t done much wrong since joining but sticking with Collins is and we knew that weeks ago.

It was, but the defeat was solely down to Collins.
It was 10 vs 10 with minutes to go, and we could even of snatched it until that fucking clown pressed self destruct.

What about all the points lost when he wasn't playing? Do we not count those?
