He's more likely to walk than be sacked.

Signed a 4 year deal so no chance. If he was offered a great job elsewhere maybe (that’s unlikely at the moment) but he won’t walk. We’ve only lost a couple all season hardly like we’re getting battered week in week out. Got some cash to spend in Jan as well probably

How does that make him look?

Ultimately if we get to November and are dwindling in the bottom 6, no midfielders, fans booing etc. Maybe he has a change of heart with it and doesn't fancy it.

Imagine if he was listening to CWR tonight, plenty calling for his name. You'd be mortified after what he's done for us.

We could have picked up some decent championship midfielders for next to nothing to tied us over until we found players we thought were gems. We've just blown our load on crap defenders from Barnsley, with Brekalo apparently still to come for 5 mill+, who is deciding our transfer policy/strategy?, it's been pritty dire.

In other news, it’s been almost a month now, do you think we might be able to see our most expensive defensive signing in club history start a game?

Make the changes earlier then. Switching them both that late in a game and disrupting the defensive shape when we’re hanging on was suicide.

We don't half go overboard on here , shit result , conceded late , not quite happening after 8 games but still just the 38 games to go ..

Robins won't walk , Robins won't be sacked , we will be fine , relax

You will say , yea but ... yea but this shit happens every season it feels like , we start slow and get better as it goes on

What bad luck? We’re dropping points because we’re a poor side, it’s nothing to do with bad luck.

If anything we’ve got pretty lucky so far this season (Eccles deflected shot falling straight to Godden to give us the lead vs Middlesbrough, Godden’s cross deflecting off a Middlesbrough player and straight into the net for our third, that Watford player passing it into his own net from 40 yards, the ball bouncing in off Ayari’s knob tonight)

Couldn’t agree more. If anyone thinks we’ve been unlucky not to win more games then they’re deluded.

Our midfield was so predictable once again, sideways and backwards passing time and time again, no threat through the middle, perhaps one long ball tried all game. We started bright and then slipped back into our usual slow-tempo ways.

Easily worse than the Cardiff game, it’s fine to make mistakes but there’s absolutely no excuse if you don’t learn from them.

Yes. Played more regularly for the US than Wright, played 80 or so games for Boavista and cancelled his contract with them for non payment.

Will be lining up against us for QPR on Saturday now.

Maybe, but Huddersfield we’re attacking the flanks but through the centre.

A very poor result against a poor side. I only watched the second half but Ayari's contribution was pathetic. It's looking like a long season ahead.

We're only a Kelly hamstring injury from being in an absolute nightmare.
Eccles isn't a top half championship player and cannot lead a midfield.
We have to get an out of contract player for cover at the very least and hope we're lucky on who we pick up

Our striker missed an open goal from 2 yards out to go 2 up , then we defended like kids for the equaliser
Click to expand...
Absolutely agree with that, we defended poorly for the last few mins of the game and Wright should have buried that chance but I genuinely felt for the rest of the game we defended well and our midfield-attack transition was predictably terrible.

We weren’t hanging on though at that point. Allen and Wright’s has taken the sting out of Huddersfield - we just fucked it at the end with a truly awful piece of defending.

The first half was very promising. Second half very average but then Wright decides to miss from point blank and the defence can’t hang on another 10 seconds.

In this weird position where I don’t want anyone other than Robins in charge yet I don’t agree with a single thing he says or decision he makes.
Every week he blames the defence and yet we created 3 shots on target in that whole game.
If we had created actual chances we wouldn’t have an issue of drawing every other week.
Click to expand...
The only reason we didn't win was because of poor defending
