I’ve just read someone say we’re “in crisis” and slagging off all the squad. Lampard obviously wants his team to play quite differently, let’s see where we are in Jan.

“Lots of overreactions”

Why does that kind of comment always come from the most ironic of directions?

I wonder if he enjoyed the 6211 we were playing when we conceded after half time

Loads of overreactions, if that was a Robins performance he’d be practically lynching him is the irony

We rarely played that poorly chasing a game under robins , few and far between

We also didn't get many posts about the subs being late and like for like whilst chasing the game

We are in crisis, we are conceding two goals per game, that's the 6 of the last 7 games where we've conceded two or more. No team will stay up letting in goals at that rate.

We made chances in all of those games. We were drawing the Sheffield Wednesday game for the most part.

Not sure I'd pin that on Robins or Lampard. To be fair to the players it must be difficult having had such a turnover in staff. Not judging Lampard until February ( ish).

Sheffield wednesday won it in the 90th minute mate , Swansea we had 20 shots ..

Derby wasn't as bad as that second half but sure was poor

Because Robins got into the play offs once out the two seasons with Doug King. This is the third season. Robins was meeting his original aim.

What does that have to do with effort and desire whilst chasing a fucking game mate , do the posters on this forum read things ?

We were absolutely appalling second half today

Sheffield played us off the park. Derby we looked clueless going forward and Swansea we threatened extremely little.

Norwich also had a very comfortable time defending their lead.

agreed, we were poor under Robins, and I think he’s slowly sapped the confidence from a few of this squad - it’ll come good though as our squad aren’t on the whole bad, FL hopefully can instill the confidence again and get them back playing the way we know they can

You think robins sapped the confidence from the team ? Based on zero evidence whatsoever but your own opinion of robins managerial style

Dislikeable? That's harsh. They are not performing as they should. and look a bit lost, but they are far from dislikable.

I think it’s harsh to say Robins sapped the confidence to be honest.

it would be very unlike him as he’s motivated fairly average players to do some really good things in his first 5 seasons here

Franks only been in the door for two days and will need time to settle this lot in.

I thought the first half was decent to be honest. Second half tho, why we dropped all intensity or aggression and just let them do what they wanted till they scored.

Least it’s a point and other teams have helped us, need to say improvement for millwall although imagine frankly Frank would agree

Absolutely not writing him off. And I think he’ll do fine.

But today was absolutely shite and my point is I it isn’t as binary as was one thing being wrong.

First half I agree was decent but from when they scored 2nd half I've not seen us so poor chasing a game for a long long time

Thought it was as bad at times. Maybe not as consistently bad. But today and Derby are the only times I’ve ever heard the abuse from the crowd getting to that level.
