I wouldn't employ staff who can't do their job.

Just Lost the match commentary..

Guess it's a relief. Listening to the game was too painful.

We are totally useless. Things have to drastically change in the second half.

Not sure what help he will be. He had his chance Saturday and didn’t take it

Might as well throw Vincenti into the middle, and Ponticelli up top! Throw two more attacking players into the mix but continue to invite pressure on ourselves!

Don’t worry Ponticelli will be coming on in the 87th minute.

Get Ponti on. Biamou off. There can't be that much difference in ability can there, surely?

Also, Stokes and Kelly off. Beavon and Vincenti on. Change formation. Go 3-5-2. Or 1 -11. I don't care.

Losing to these at home is not acceptable.

He should have done it 20 minutes ago.

I have been saying this since the start of the season - we are a winger light. I'd bring Devon on in that role second half.

As have I - I’ve been banging on about the importance of pace. Although I wouldn’t bring Devon on, I’d prefer to hope McNulty wakes us.

Feasibly we could lose to Accrington Stanley and Forest Green Rovers in 4 days.

Jesus Christ that’s desperate.

Starting with, Mr Robins, having not scored for 2 games, why do you feel the need to play 6 at the back against shite like this?
He's not changed a fucking thing all season, just shifted his players around in his bullshit formation. You could land a fucking helicopter in the circle between our midfield and forwards.
Can't believe people are blaming the strikers again.

Awful first half. Only grimmer doing well. Doyle and Kelly playing more sideways passes than clingan did. Biamou not a league player...two free headers...no direction or power.

Only a crap kick if strikers stand watching it. If one had gambled on it then it’s a great pass.

2nd game I've managed to get to this season. Wish I hadn't bothered. The first one at Yeovil was turd as well.
I'm actually looking forward to the 2 hour drive home for some entertainment.

I'd do it for Doyle, brave but he's on a yellow anyway. Let Kelly sit and break down play

I think we all agree we need to change something, but does anyone have a feasible suggestion for what/who?

JP is the obvious one, but we play hoofball to Biamou so take him off and we have nobody to aim for.

We need creativity and/or pace - we have neither on the bench.

Poor half. We look dangerous when we actually get a cross in the box but we don't do it often enough. McNulty looks lost on the wing, biamou should have buried that header from McDonalds cross and le duck has been poor, not even doing the basics.

Awful by burge.

Playing three forwards with big gaps between each of them is just strange.

McNulty is a forward but is drifting wide. Biamou is just poor. Against a weak team do you really need Doyle and Kelly.

33 minutes before one shot at goal and no sustained activity until the last 10 minutes of the half.

It's a big 45 for Robins

Or Jones could periodically switch sides like Arjen Robben does.

As usual, they have a much better goal-keeper than us.

He needs to sort things out quickly otherwise it may be time to try someone different.

Footballing ability and tactic the masses won't appreciate unless he scores a goal.
