As soon as I read predicted by AI I stopped reading. BlackburnFLW artificial (un)intelligence don't agree, they have Leicester winning the league. They also have Birmingham finishing 17th and Norwich bottom though.

Bristol rovers game the other night summed up how far we’ve come so quickly. I remember going there few years ago being 3-0 down in 20 mins. It was a training exercise for us on Wednesday.
God just reflecting back to robins last season - he really did loose his way with the team didn’t he.People keep saying that Robins dropped Dovin for Collins, and while technically correct he only did this for 3 games.
Leeds away, a calamity where having Dino Zoff in goal wouldn't have made a difference.
Blackburn away, clean sheet and 3 points.
Sheff W at home, where a failure to freshen up the midfield late in the game, not for the first time, cost us at least a point.
Whatever went wrong for Robins last season, his keeper selection wasn't really a part of it.
I remember our first game back in the Championship, Kalas scored the winner for Bristol City and I was thinking how are we supposed to compete with teams that have £7 million Czech internationals.Yeah, said the same to my lad when we were there on Wednesday. We've come so far.
There were loads of teams I was always nervous of playing back then. They've stayed where they were and we've progressed beyond measure.
Same when we first moved into the Championship, it was teams like Watford and Norwich I dreaded playing. Think we're better than both those now, although they're both signing some good players. Hopefully, we can strengthen more in the next couple of weeks.
And backroom staff.God just reflecting back to robins last season - he really did loose his way with the team didn’t he.
Didn't he also speak on CWR and make very clear why. Sure I remember him saying he hadn't been dropped for his performance, just that he wanted Dovin to be more vocal.People keep saying that Robins dropped Dovin for Collins, and while technically correct he only did this for 3 games.

I assume you mean Wilson instead of Collins, though the point is the same.People keep saying that Robins dropped Dovin for Collins, and while technically correct he only did this for 3 games.

We may not beat them very often but at least we finish above them lately. I'm happy with that.Better than Norwich? We barely seem to beat them do we?
You can't judge it on how often you take points off another team, we were pretty much guaranteed points from Sunderland each season, now they are a premier league team.Better than Norwich? We barely seem to beat them do we?

TBF there was a fair bit of criticism of Dovin early doorsGod just reflecting back to robins last season - he really did loose his way with the team didn’t he.
Well he did a fine job for 7 season and then maybe a natural decline ?TBF there was a fair bit of criticism of Dovin early doors
When was the last time we beat them at home and last time we beat them away ?We may not beat them very often but at least we finish above them lately. I'm happy with that.
100% Wilson played against Leeds and Sheff Wis was Collins wasn’t it? Wasn’t Wilson injured at that time or am I remembering wrongly?
He had a bad start to the season. He hadn't lost his way at all, that's pure hyperbole he was struggling without having AV along side him, but let's not forget he'd won 2 games back to back before the Derby defeat that cost him his job.God just reflecting back to robins last season - he really did loose his way with the team didn’t he.
Wilson played in those 3 games.is was Collins wasn’t it? Wasn’t Wilson injured at that time or am I remembering wrongly?

The decline started when he got rid of VivashWell he did a fine job for 7 season and then maybe a natural decline ?
I think he picked something up against Sheff W but was kept on the pitch.No you’re right, just checked and Wilson started in those games. It must have been later when Wilson picked up his injury.
lol PTop lad. Think we’re going to like him.
i would say after Denis Lawrence leftThe decline started when he got rid of Vivash
Robins didn't have a good record with the keepers. Each and everyone one of them from Simon Moore on had a collapse in confidence - that's very unusual!
It was as much an issue with the overall defensive setup as it was Dovin, but he was clueless on the ball that night, we had no idea how to play out from the back. Thought the goal was unlucky more than anything, but I went home pretty frustrated with him.Where Robins really got it wrong with Dovin was criticising him for a freak goal at QPR. That seemed to affect his performances for a little while.
I know it's a massive relief we've got Rushworth in, top goalkeeper for this level.I'm still buzzing that we have got this keeper for the season. It feels like a weight has been lifted.

He did. Something about he was vocal back in Sweden but he was hesitating here. Although he spoke fluent English I think he was still thinking in Swedish.I think Dovin may also have said at some point that Robins was right, though I might be misremembering that
