Because the budget is small and been largely spent on contract improvements. It forces Robins to play the long game and incrementally improve the squad year on year. Frustrating for the fans. Think the real test for Robins will come in the summer when we have to sell one of the stars to fund further squad improvement. How well whatever he gets from that is re-invested will make or break next season.why didn’t we address that in jan ?

Really? I didn't think so
Agree, or Tavares.The subs were baffling. We were crying out for some spark and energy and he brings on fucking Waghorn.
What frustrates me with Allen is he gets a chance tonight and shows absolutely nothing at all.I am afraid Allen just isn't good enough at this level
I know people keep suggesting Tavares isnt quite ready, but if so why is he on the bench?
Pace scares defenders and we haven't got many players with pace, so why not give him a go tonight ahead of an overweight and unfit striker who has only a vague recollection of what the fucking goal looks like.
So you’re blaming the manager right?I gotta say. Fair play to sisu not gambling.
I wouldn’t have put money into this lot either.
Absolutely spot onWe play some good passing football at times but tonight there was very little else. We're like a dog with no teeth.
Good points made I worry about us next season Barnsley styleBecause the budget is small and been largely spent on contract improvements.

Why on earth would you play Hyam or Rose or even McFadz at right backWe're so stupidly married to the 5 at the back system that we have to play an unfit Kane every game because we have no-one else who can play RWB, and then inevitbaly have to waste a sub to take him off. If we just played 4 at the back I'm sure one of the CBs could fill in at RB for a game but because we're only set up to play one formation and one style of play we're completely stuck.
Is Dabo going to bring us something completely different when he plays?
If you play someone like Waghorn it's from the start to wear a defender out then bring someone like Jones or Tavares to exploit the tiredness.Desperate need of fresh legs in this team now. Need Dabo and Godden back ASAP. Also need to start using Tavares. I know he is unknown but cannot see what Waghorn offers us coming off the bench.

I know who’s shoes I rather be in though mateLeast they got some excitement the season before
I know who’s shoes I rather be in though mate
Yes he isIs Dabo going to bring us something completely different when he plays?
Godden is the only striker we have who can head a ball.That Gyo miss gets worse every time.
Yes he is
The wheels were always gonna slow mate we don’t have the squad or quality to stick it where we was regardless we were punching and ill He happy with mid table finish but a little bravery in jan who knows where we could of ended upRight now yes. But we have been on bottom 6 form for a very long time now-it's our turn next season unless we get quality in depth beyond the starting XI
Sounds like Kane at the moment then with more running thenMore running about a lot with no final product.
Drive and passion you know how it is mate less players play the better they becomeYes he is
Agreed, he does in the sense that he links up far better with O'Hare particularly, and his starting position is a bit higher which opens up space for us. Kane is a much better crosser but the rest of his game leaves a lot to be desired.Yes he is
Speaking of which, when is Bright coming back into the team?Drive and passion you know how it is mate less players play the better they become
Wish we had got Cameron Archer on loan from Villa. Would be an improvement from O’Hare atleast in the finishing department
Is Dabo going to bring us something completely different when he plays?
I’d imagine the fee from Shipley would have near enough covered his wages until the end of the yearCash plus Shipley's wages off the bill and we could've had a go.
He walks into the LWB spot mate you know it tooSpeaking of which, when is Bright coming back into the team?
Their left back who scored had two games at bloody notts County and was then sent back. Sometimes you have to give youth a go to prove themselves.Both those lads Cardiff brought on are younger than Tavares so how can they say he’s not ready/strong/old enough? Put him on and see what he can do ffs
