Kelly off for Westbrooke, probably just edged ahead of Camwell in the 2nd half for MoM for me.

certainly grew stronger, which is a positive, I thought he looked tired in 1st half. He will need a few more games to get up to speed

He might ask their midfield if he can have a shower after. They have bullied him

Needs to get his head sorted. as he seems to have had a few wobbly games. Some players seem to take their first season to settle in - he might be one of those. Shame - let's hope he turns it round.

Bullied, or better technique/played together more?

How the hell can a player with Ogogo's experience be bullied by a U21 team?

An Oggy roll would make a change from the usual meat pie.

The same way they are the ones smashing our players, going in after the ball has gone...

He's not playing a system for him. If he was he'd have a striker who runs in behind up front. Fans need to stop obsessing about this idea of 'a system'.

6 of Robins’ summer signings struggling to keep up with a youth side here. Really poor. First half was ok but second half we’ve been dreadful. We don’t look like we’ll ever come close to scoring a goal tonight.

Back in the day , some reserves games at HIghtfield Road would have upto 10k fans watching.

Oh how times have changed . :emoji_sob:

Yep course they did. In fact that’s just the number who were in the WesternTerrace.
And we never lost HR and there were no restricted views caused by steel girders. And the Bovril was worthy of a Michelin star. And all the local kids supported the City rather than Liverpool or Man Utd or Leeds. And the band played believe it if you like.

I understand why people don’t feel at home at the Ricoh and why many of us regret leaving HR but the mythology abt the place is astounding. Regularly 10k fans for a central league game? Behave

So what's his approach? Fucked if anybody here could tell you the plan

It's hardly obsessing, andreu just didn't fit. Why's hiwula right midfield?

No idea. Maybe it's individual players who are not doing what they're being asked to? Or players who are just not fit enough who've been thrown together, 11 changes from the last starting line up remember.

Dave Bennett has not stopped chipping away all game at how the Arsenal player names all sound foreign despite being told after about 10 minutes that 9 of their 11 are British. Embarrassing to listen to.

who are the 6 , as 5 new signings started, 1 is a Chelsea youth player, 1 was signed for our under 23's, leaving Ogogo Hiwula and Baka.

Kelly and Andreu coming back from injuries and kids in Camwell and Thompson.

What he is trying hasn't worked all season

It only got better on Sunday when he pushed Chaplin up front

Andreu barely moves from the halfway line, he is bringing nothing to the game.

Hiwula he comes out to say he is a striker not a left midfielder then sticks him right midfield

He was terrible at Blackpool.

Hope it's just the effect of coming back from a long term injury.

The quote was "some reserve games". Not regularly. The detail is lost in the mists of time, but we did have very good attendances in those days for the reserves, A-team and youth team. And the first team of course. There was a real buzz about the club
