They look much more composed on the ball and considered in their passing, We really look rag-bag.

Thats because they have a plan. They will have been doing it in training and they will know what they are doing without thinking.

Burge again goes long but it just clears halfway but goes to their player, they then knock it about again patiently.

Why is Robins so stubborn to not try something else or is he that fucking clueless.

They unlock our defence again and put striker through, but luckily a heavy first touch.

We are getting a lesson again so far in the basics. We keep just hammering the ball back to them like it's an attacking drill for them in training.

So that's three such "defence splitting - clean through" passes already - who is meant to be picking up their ball player to snuff out these chances before they're made....and where are they?

We're playing with 2 players in their half, even when they have the ball on the edge of their own box. It's a disaster waiting to happen. Genuinely think we're playing for the draw.

It's as if we have 5 players on the pitch the way they are making space and passing it.

Yep, they are being patient and trying to unlock the defence. We are hoping for a defender to miss it for McNulty to go through. Even if Biamou wins the header there are enough Colchester players to sweep it up time and time again.

So getting the required response to the past two defeats then from the players, eh.

I like Robins, but at times I do scratch my head and wonder what on earth he is thinking.

Yep, could have told you that from the off. Robins hasn't got the bottle to try for a win.

If any of our strikers get it, they have 4 of them at least on them straight away.

Burge just keeps hammering the ball back to them.

It's like being at school and every time you go your usual way to school the school bully stops you and steals your dinner money.

There are a few different routes you can take to go to school in order to avoid him, but you decide to keep going the same way and hope the bully just gives in at some point and leaves you alone.

Do you want to talk about it? LOL!!! Only joking m8, bullying is a serious matter.

Notice Stevenson made a run into the box just before that too wanting to get onto a pass, hope he didn't get a nosebleed.

Richards has scored for Swindon looks like he made the right choice.

We don't usually come back from a goal down.

Will Robins change things? Three defeats in a row will be devestating to our morale.

Their player has gone for an overhead kick and judged it horribly. That is literally all that happened there. Absolutely shocking decision.
