That kind of just proves the point that he was shit.

We’d have lost that with a decent ref today as we were dreadful but doesn’t change the fact the ref was very poor.

Wycombe 3-2 up!! Huddersfield are in bigger shit than us, shoot out between us, them and Blues for 22nd place I reckon.

will ebb and flow Clint. Rotherham have had a great run, will they keep it up ?? Wednesday aren’t up to much either.

Plenty to play for but got to cut out the defensive shit. We ain’t keeping a clean sheet the way we’re defending so may as well go for it

Awful day all round. Not really anyone deserving of anything better than bang average and those are few and far between.

Ref was bloody awful and let them get away with being absolute cloggers. Guarantee we go into a game with those tactics we get 4 or 5 yellows and a red. But doesn't excuse the fact we let them bully us at times and we don't have much idea how to get the ball in the net. Basic errors and lack of concentration.

Said I wasn't going to get worried until we started the 'easier' run in March but we could well be in a real fight. Said after the draw it was a missed opportunity as they were playing poorly and we didn't press home the advantage and that point would only be OK if we didn't lose today. Now watch us put in decent performances against good teams yet still take few points from them.

Some of the negative tactics and settling for draws in games we're clearly on top may well end up costing us.

Hopefully some returning from injury soon and Walker back will help.

We have to be more cynical and win free kicks rather than stay on our feet.

25 fouls and 3 yellows is all one needs to see

We gifted them 3 points as we have many other teams this year

It shows again if we bothered to show ambition going forward we could have got something. But no just abject surrender while again the teams around us come from behind to win

Huddersfield must be right down in their boots to be losing a 2-0 lead to Wycombe, a great result for us.

All goals were school boy stuff. Hamer tackled and up wide open, osti sent into the crowd with a cut back. Schoolboy

Marosi shambolic for second. Schoolboy

Third not stopping the quick free kick. Schoolboy.

Are we taught nothing about the non playing side of a game. Twice their keeper spilled pass back type efforts and both times we were running back in to position. What are you taught? Follow the shot up. Christ it makes me angry how naive we are, still, in fucking Feb.

Not good today and we’re in a big relegation fight. Did anyone think we’d be in something other than that based on more than just hope? We’ve got a weak squad in this league but we’ve still got a good chance of staying up. I said at the start of the season I’d be happy with 4th from bottom. Nothing has changed that.

We have got to be more forward thinking in the final 3rd we get there and no one is prepared to take a risk if we see nothing we go back and back and back to start again no wonder our possession stats look great
We have got to drive forward more when we are 20yard from their Box

Walker came through unscathed. Huddersfield lost at home, as did Birmingham.

We drew the second half 1-1, hit the bar, and were positive throughout the second half - a good response to a poor first half (no downing of tools)

Tbh we played some good stuff as we always do, without the end product. Lots of posession in our favour but never really in control. We are always going to make an error but the recovery is never very good. 90 minutes of concentration is a must. James has been decent but he is no Kelly tbf. Hamer I think is just knackered. Morosi is all over the place atm and Wilson should come back in.
We need some good fortune too, hitting the woodwork more than any other team in the league is not a great stat? If we play wingbacks then make sure they do what they are supposed to do. McCallum has not been anywhere near his best for 4 or 5 games now.
Time for Robins to be angry with all the players mistakes and not taking their foot off the gas when we have so much posession. Time has come now to scrap for our lives or we will be in trouble.

losing is bad enough, but today some of them need to take a long hard look at themselves.
Going through the motions is not going to keep us up. Might not be Robins style, but some real bollockings are in order.

No use blaming the ref for our spineless performance.

I'm a big fan of Robins, but not changing the team was a big mistake today.
