Robins, it’s time to go. You can’t motivate, you can’t even buy a quality player with money to burn. There’s unrest in the camp, and what few quality players we do possess are looking to go.
You talk about inexperience, then loan in other teams youngsters, at the expense of our own. For the love of god man go now ffs,

The run in at the end is tough and if we don’t have points on the board then it doesn’t look good.

Seriously guys, What do want from our club?
Are we happy being shit while other “smaller” teams overtake us?
Am I really the only one who is sick and tired of constantly putting up with shit, week in, week out?
Should we just tolerate this crap? Or should we say, enough is enough?
Our budget suggests a top 4 finish, but we look like being mid table, Are we happy to accept that???
Ffs guys, I can’t be the only one who’s getting pissed off with what MR is delivering.

Willlis should have put it out... Bakayoko should have got his shots on target at the very least... bright shouldnt have switched off in midfield when he thought the game was all but won. Ahipley shouldn’t have been on the field when he was clearly carrying an injury and going through the motions...

Defenders Making weak and ill judged balls backwards when they are last man & strikers not confident enough to shoot up front, Same basic mistakes costing us week After Week. time to look in the mirror and make a change. Losing points against piss poor teams that simply dont deserve it can’t go on if we are to progress and get promoted

Agree but that can be reversed too. How about defence allows us to squeak a win sometime?

I think it’s easier to score piss easy sitters than to defend flawlessly for 90 minutes

You aren’t, but those of us pointing it out are told to be grateful for mid table in League 1 having been in Div 4 the year previous. I say wait until safety has been secured because of the cold reality of how shit this team is being managed and how poor our front line is.

I certainly agree, and have been hoping for playoffs for most of the season but with a pretty clueless manager, a bunch of useless strikers and a back line that makes errors resulting in goals more often than we benefit from something of the like, it’s not realistic.

The only unrest is listening to the boring calls for Robins to go. You still live in dreamland of us being a big club and we should be getting promoted this season.

Let’s keep sacking managers because it’s worked so well for the last 25 years hasn’t it especially one who has built this club up again from the pits and got us more success in two years than anyone has done since 87

Reality check needed

I’m sure there will be unhappiness at the top too, remember that they were going on about the aim preseason being promotion. A relatively decent budget seemed to be made available for it too, I would be surprised if he was still in charge next season.

Personally I’d say our campaigns in the PL and some in the Championship were more successful than promotion from the 4th tier and winning the paint pot cup

Yes but the point is that a defender needs to be switched on for longer spells. Our strikers are getting gilt edged sitters every week and not even hitting the target. It’s unforgivable quite frankly

No you’re right we should be grateful for going toe to toe with Accrington Stanley and nicking a point. Garbage clubs to have been promoted to the Champs since 2012:

Yeovil
Burton
MK Dons
Rotherham

And just look at some of the shite to have made it to the PL since we left it:

Watford
Burnley
Bournemouth
Huddersfield
Hull
Cardiff
Blackpool
Swansea
Palace
Stoke

I could go on. It really, really isn’t hard to go up from League 1 if your manager has half a brain and even an average budget. This club should be in the Championship as a bare minimum and the upper ceiling for most is 7th in the Prem. Take a small club mentality and we always will be one.

What a complete cop out.

As a proffesiinal athlete , mental strength and self belief is everything. If you aint got it, you wont make it.

Thought he spoke very well, and saw the game I saw. Feel we played well on the whole, there's an obvious plan and the football is quite progressive and, if we keep going, we're very close to being a good team.

Well I notice you didn't include Brighton in your shit club list.
We have no right to anything other than to try our best and frankly that has not been good enough for a generation. You can point the finger at Hiwula, Chaplin, Baka, JCH or whoever but the truth is we are where we are and being Coventry City is not going to change that.
This season is frustrating because we have actually played well in most games and our manager has not seen fit to rectify the glaringly obvious shortcoming which would have put us at least in the play offs.

Yes we play some good stuff and make some very good passing moves. But we lack a Finisher to Finish these moves. Broken record.

We desperately need a Finisher. If we had one we wpuld be top 6 easy.

This isn’t about entitlement it’s about dispelling the illusion that it’s hard to get promoted in England.
