The assistant manager looks to be going round being involved in everything as well! Improvement on people doing what they want

More organised and more professional. Nearly always think the opposition warm ups are better

Yes, refreshing to see. I'm pleased with all the minor changes so far. Slade was obviously old school in his approach and Robins more modern.
I do hope our subs warm up better at half time, remember Fleetwood? There coaching team had them doing mini games. Warming up with intent.
We just do 50 yard pings to each other with the odd jog. Winds me up.

Foley at RB. Nooooo!

Let's see if Robins sets up properly with 4 strikers on the pitch at the same time

Five players signed by Slade in the team.

Robins clearly hasn't a clue.

Right, got to go build a greenhouse for a bit. I expect us to be at least 3-0 up by the time I come back or I want Robins out.

Come on city. Robins needs to get wood to play the ball quickly to baker who can slip McGoldrick in.

Ooops sorry caught in a time warp.

The players are actually trying to pass to one another and find feet.

What is happening?!

Stokes looks rusty.

Strange call up for him imo

Has he even been playing in the development games up to now?

I think he's been training but Robins chucked him in now because of Haynes' illness. Maybe he thinks playing players not 100% is better than having them out of position.

Stokes against Marshall, the latter manages to get a cross in, 9 heads against the post

Should have been a Bradford goal. He'll be disappointed

It was a fair bit wide to be fair. A good effort though.

We will struggle later on in this game,

Marshall shows what we are missing all season - width pace and crosses.

Burge flapping like a fish out of water as always.
