Another shocking performance.
He has no idea what his best team is.
Chop and change, the only constant is that there is no shape.

This is spot on. It’s not the losing, it’s the logic of the management. Random changes. Not using subs. So uncharacteristically Robins.

We should be surrounding the ref at full time for the offside and penalty on BTA, but we just take it and wander meekly off the pitch.

We were not tonnes better, I'd still give Robins the season but to say we were better is a fallacy.

Nonsense Pete. Correct result, should have lost by 3 or 4 at least.

Spineless performance and the manager stood and let it happen. So poor from players and manager.

Another horribly disjointed performance ….

2 soft goals.

Robins not altering tactics or formation

Confused thinking from Robins ….. Simms plays well at Watford and scores and is dropped for Bassette, Bassette plays well and is then dropped for Simms who is dropped for BTA … now Bassette can’t even get minutes from the bench …

BTA anonymous as a striker today despite the clamour for him to play ahead of Simms and Bassette

Sucks that an offside goal could be the end of Robins, but performances and results have been nowhere near good enough.

Mark Robins is forever a Coventry City legend though and deserves a statue one day.

Why does Robins name a subs bench and why buy bassette when he won’t play the lad , Robins is lucky we won midweek because he would of gone after today losing to that crap

The more this goes on the more I’m leaning towards thinking the club made a grave mistake letting Vivash go. This is so depressing.

Yeah but wasn't there talk of some sort of gross misconduct? Can't stay after that now matter how good he is.

(may not be true of course!)

Robins needs to sort this out quickly, Blackburn looks like an outlier right now, he deserves the season but will he get it
Click to expand...

I’m sick of this ‘he deserves this and that’ - he doesn’t deserve anything if he’s not performing…

I’m not saying he should go, but you can’t keep him on for sentimentality and go down as a result!

he needs to start getting a tune out of these players or pay the price I fear

None of the players were bothered so what's the point, just let him give shit decisions and our players give the ref a handshake and a pat on the back

It really is him. He's never used subs or changed games during them

If it works from the off, great. If we need to change things, we are fucked.

He had no intention to bring any fresh legs on.

Clear red card but we put no pressure on the ref, gave him an easy decision to give a yellow.

I didn't see the game. Could it simply be that we have bought good enough players, but players who are just not consistent enough.

We've had them before here. Players that can look like a world beater once every 4 games or, only to then disappear, or have a number of off games the following 3.

Wright seems a bit like that and so too, Rudoni.

It's just so puzzling how we can look very good on occasion and then awful on others.

Something isn't quite right is it.

Who was it who said that there is unhappiness in the camp due to differentials in wages?

I think he’s got a lot of questions to answer but I wouldn’t call him a c**t, especially after his recent personal issues. Says a lot about you.

Only one team playing with any intensity out there in the last 10 minutes from my point of view.
Click to expand...
Waiting until the last 10 minutes isn't a great strategy. Put that urgency into the first 10 minutes and maybe you'll set up games better particularly at home

Time to manage expectations. We've had a fantasy 3 years but we are back to the 20-21 season. This is a poor outfit that we have been absurdly financially bummed for. Need to get behind them stop dreaming of glory and hope we can stay up

Feel like we are a team of passengers just letting this happen.

I'm not in the "Robins out" camp by any means but it doesn't look good for him. I used to laugh at those who said we would be fighting relegation but if we aren't careful we really could be.

I'd be delighted with top half right now.
