An utter mess.
An utter mess.Nothing regarding Robins, it's mainly the players.
Few home truths told, certain players (rightly) calling out the bollockless ones, certain coaches basically being told by players that they haven't a fucking clue
You can basically see this happening out on the pitch during games, never mind behind the scenes.Nothing regarding Robins, it's mainly the players.

Mate but Dennis was here then So I'm not sure where we are going ? The young centre halves are not up to it ?We conceded a lot of very poor goals in the first few months of last season with a back 5 too. It points to something else being the problem.

Maybe crossed wires here, I've not said Dennis Lawrence was the reason why we had a strong defence up until last season. What I think is the bigger reason was that for years MR built a tightly knit group of players and staff who were on the same wavelength, were drilled within an inch of their lives and would work their backsides off for the club.Mate but Dennis was here then So I'm not sure where we are going ?

The midfield issues should have been addressed, it’s malpractice that we haven’tAt this point though with jamie allen now injured , NOT signing matty james on a short term deal would be the shit move I feel
Agreed
All in all.its a clusterfuck from what I'm hearing and there's no one with a set of bollocks big enough to sort it
Be interesting when Doug catches wind. Last time he was informed of a player losing their rag and giving Robins / coaches a volley of abuse was when he heard O'hare did just that after being hooked at half time v Albion
He promptly informed Callum that the offer on the table was withdrawn and to go fuck himself
It took Robins to convince Doug to try again to keep Callum and go back with an offer
Keen to see who gets his wrath off the back of this
We have eyes... when Jake Bidwell is the only player showing any attacking intent after the break shows what a shit show today was.Good. Though the bollockless must have had a massive numerical advantage
Agreed. We haven’t replaced the mental toughness of Fadz and KellyIt’s not just about Lawrence, or Viveash, or Kelly, or McFadzean. It’s all of them and not anyone with the same mentality coming in.
We had warning signs at this stage last season too mind you. The striking thing was the Cardiff game where MR openly talked about shyness in the dressing room, and Godden talked about the manager wanting us to play a particular style that was nothing like what we were seeing on the pitch.Agreed

I think this is the bigger problem , and let's face it there isn't many managers that wouldn't struggle a bit with so much change around him is there ? I think a bit of time and adjustments are needed, and maybe a bit of leway from doug with older playersIt’s not just about Lawrence, or Viveash, or Kelly, or McFadzean. It’s all of them and not anyone with the same mentality coming in.
And with the greatest of respect to both of them, they were below champ level.Agreed. We haven’t replaced the mental toughness of Fadz and Kelly
And with the greatest of respect to both of them, they were below champ level.
So is 'leadership' or 'bollocks' not an attribute recruitment look for... or is it a football manager simulation?

Kelly wasn’t either, he was in the team that took us to the playoff finalFadz definitely wasn't below championship level when he was playing

Yep that’s way too sneaky saddle - let’s hear itRight then @Saddlebrains just hit us with it
I'd love to know which players think they have the right to call out others, because there aren't many! 90% of them have been fucking appalling so far.Nothing regarding Robins, it's mainly the players.

I said in one of my rants that he needs an assistant in.
And let’s be positive here there’s no transfer window for coaching staff and they cost less than players. So it’s an easy and cheap fix. Ideally we’d have it on the pitch, but if Doug won’t spring for that, then he needs to find one or two coaches to come in and bang some heads together and provide leadership off it.
We’ve had the same this season too. Eccles was saying pre-season that we were planning on playing exciting, front footed stuff this season. Hasn’t materialised at all and if anything we’re playing some of worst football since we’ve come up.Godden talked about the manager wanting us to play a particular style that was nothing like what we were seeing on the pitch.
Maybe I am being harsh, but most of their careers were not in the old divs 2 & 1... emphasis is on the 2nd point.Fadz definitely wasn't below championship level when he was playing
He played 3 full championship campaigns for us and was a gladiator the season we made the playoff finalMaybe I am being harsh, but most of their careers were not in the old divs 2 & 1... emphasis is on the 2nd point.
Eccles is the only one that really comes to mind.I'd love to know which players think they have the right to call out others, because there aren't many! 90% of them have been fucking appalling so far.

So is the problem all at robins feet ? Because to me it sounds like a collection of problems that are all having an impact somewhere
Again, I'm not picking on Fadz here...He played 3 full championship campaigns for us and was a gladiator the season we made the playoff final
He played 2 full championship campaigns for Burton and 1 for MK dons
Eccles came out with some rubbish about 11 captains so I doubt it. 11 bellends more accurate.Eccles is the only one that really comes to mind.
If Robin’s had control and authority this wouldn’t happen. All over the pitch they were arguing today from early on- Allen had a strop before going off ‘injured’. Wright clearly not interested and stropping hence his exit. What a mess. Needs a leader.Nothing regarding Robins, it's mainly the players.
