JCH Alessani Burge Saturday please I can’t see how the new lads are better than what we had

You are missing the obvious, JCH on his own up front with nobody near him having the ball hammered up to him would be just as pointless.

McNulty thrived from playing off Biamou, stick McNulty where Bakayoka was tonight and watch him get taken out of the game too.

Imagine playing Chaplin there tonight. May as well get him to just sit in the stand and watch.

We're totally off the pace, and Robins is culpable.
O'Brien should never play for the club again, his howler to minute ratio is ridiculous.
At this moment Shrewsbury must be pissing themselves palming Ogogo and Brown off on to us. Both fucking rubbish. Sad to say initial impression of Bakayoko is that the yam yams are spot on.
Hiwula did more when he came on than Bakayoko.

Brown and Ogogo need to be dropped along with Obrien

Happy to admit, I know fuck all about goalkeeping

Burge isn't the answer but I suspect we'll be seeing him Saturday

Clueless. Burge makes no more mistakes than Joe Murphy did

Thing is Robins doesn't know what system he wants to play, how can he then try and pick a team when he has no idea what he wants to do?

You can tell Luke Thomas is pissed off, his body language is shocking. The fact he is trying to play 3 positions as well.

Playing Doyle and Ogogo in the same team is like playing with ten men. I’m not doubting their abilities but they just do the same thing. At least a Doyle/Kelly partnership has a bit of variation with Doyle breaking down play and Kelly getting forward.

Until Kelly is match for we must surely revert to 4-4-2 or 4-4-1-1 with playing Doyle/Ogogo in the centre with Bayliss and then have Andreu play just off whichever striker we pick (who can’t score)

At the moment all we do is invite pressure on to the defence which is crazy considering we have two suspect full backs and the two defensive midfielders often caught in no man’s land

Should be an epic post match interview...

GF: Were you disappointed with the 1st goal?
MR: Yeah.

GF: Then they scored again, were you disappointed about that?
MR: Yeah.

GF: Max Biamou coming off after 25 seconds... Was he injured?
MR: Yeah.
GF: Were you disappointed about that?
MR: Yeah.

GF: Back to you Clive.

Hyam just about the only one to come out of this with any credit, he's been class.

Willis and Thomas have been ok as well.

Can’t wait for people who haven’t seen us to come on and say there is a lot of the season left. We’ve been absolutely rubbish so far and you have to worry now. It’s not losing that’s the problem it’s not even being in the game. 0 shots on target.

Full time 2-0

I'm boycotting the post match conference! I doubt much will come out of it, especially since it'll be Geoff asking the questions

Also, I have the last episode of the first series of Slasher to watch! (Recommended if anyone likes horrors )

No it will be to just moan about strikers as if Chaplin would have won us the game tonight.

Robins needs to sort it out and quickly, none of this acting like it's preseason bullshit.

Disappointing line up. Agogu at CB, Thomas up front (winger) Brown LW, Sterling LB. what is Robins doing?? Surely the lads don’t need a rest already. FFS
Not one single shot on target registered. Not good enough.

Think that's honestly as bad as I've seen us play. This side look every bit as bad as the relegation side from a couple of years ago.

Quite worrying how he thinks these clown keepers are good enough, at least he signed 7 left backs this summer. His recruitment this summer will see him sacked before the end of the season.

You won't create anything chasing aimless hoofs all game, it's as simple as that.

Another manager to show Robins up as inept. Biamou went off and he stood shitting himself for 60 minutes watching it clearly not work.

Lower league players are so often incapable of playing anything other that 4-4-2. That’s what worked last year. That’s what we should have kept with.

Robins has let promotion get to his head, thinks he can do whatever he fucking wants now. Bet he has a giant portrat of his head above his bed.

It was strangely when McNulty started scoring, he said it himself Biamou helped him massively.

So the answer to that is put somebody up there with nobody around them and just fucking hoof it and expect things to happen.

Robins seems lost.

I agree, for some reason they thought he was near their first team, looks nothing more then a conference player at best.

Awful 5 games and not a single goal from open play. Robins has the lost the plot with some of his signings and decisions.
