2-0

Poor defending again. Shrewsbury lad played easily into the box, Burge initially saved the first shot but the rebound was put away!

Next review from the lady next to me; "they're a bunch of arse holes".

Edit: oops she was on the phone then

Still relevant mind

Burge did well to get the first save in. Didn't stand a chance for the the second shot.

McNulty isolated and getting no service at all

Exactly - that was patently obvious on Saturday in the Yeovil match. If you play McNulty, you need 2 up front. This is a lost opportunity fo Robins to try a different formation and tactics. He needs a plan B - it's called playing with positive intent to score goals. Benno's got this sussed already. Robins MUST learn from his mistakes.

If we're going to play one up front it can't be McNulty. Like playing George Thomas up front alone.

Stevenson down unchallenged again. Can't keep him on much longer

Might be a blessing in disguise as could swap him for a striker and mix it up a bit

I really don't think anyone's going to start on you for not attending this game!
You've made a wise decision!

Proof if ever we beeddd it why Andreu up with McNulty doesn't work;

Doesn't really well to win possession just on the outside of the box, has goal in sight, dithers, ends up running too wide before a defensive challenge comes in!

A striker would have struck that ball (well a striker who doesn't wear our sky blue colours anyway!)

Yeah 4231 was fine in his first spell when you had McGoldrick scoring at a rate of 2 in 3, baker scoring 15 from midfield and moussa and sheffers chipping in. And most of bakers and mcgoldricks were made by themselves.

I have no idea how we at tryng to score or what our pattern of play is. Its pretty poor.

No, it was a poor connection and should have hit the net

We don’t seem to have the striker for one up top do we? Or the attacking mids.

Not sure we have the strikers for two up top either TBF.

Is there still time to make a loan signing?

Just no class in the team, Andreu looks like he could be a player for us, but Vincenti while he wins headers and tries hard, doesn't bring anything to the team, Jodi is the only one with pace in the entire team.
We need somebody who will push the team up the field 10 yards at CM.

McNulty clearly needs someone up top with him.

But what pisses me off most of all is the apparent lack of desire from some players. That's just totally unacceptable.
