Ahem, which one?Let’s hope Brentford don’t come in in January with a bid which we turn down and it finishes his career like another certain academy product
In this division. Yes they are
You mean a Plan B like losing at half time and winning at the end
Given where we are, Its not
YES
0-1 down at half time and 2-1 winners. boring ?
The home crowd is not great. I get that lots are staying away but the general home attendances are not good for a club of our stature, even at this level. If owners were different I'd expect 12k+. It is what it is but it creates a shit atmosphere, that can't help the players. We were noticeably outsung by Mansfield all game last week.
i can count on one hand the amount of English football games i have been to where the home fans outsung the away fans
Today was 1
Hey, you are entitled to your opinion and are correct that some players are not good enough. Burge, Haynes, Willis, Stevenson, McNulty, Biamou, Beavon et al. Burge done well today but we know if we want to progress then people like him and Haynes are not going to take us much further.Think I was wrong saying a lot of our players aren't good enough. What I really mean is we are lacking a bit of a cutting edge going forward. It is just one or 2 extra pieces we need to be fair.
We still don't score enough - prior to today only 3 teams in the division had scored less. The problem for me is not so much strikers as it is the midfield being too deep. There are glimpses of the midfield looking more expressive, then you get to the next game an they're sat deep again. Frustrates me a little as. We're probably lacking a second winger too to help with the creativity.
The plan B was more that we seem to go into games with pretty much the same tactics week in, week out. We won today but there are a number of games where we've failed to adjust. Maybe we've got round that problem but I'm not calling it a new dawn after 1 win.

They were too busy doing silly synchronised dances. Why did they have a row of people like choir masters with their back to the game?I was watching on ifollow and didn't hear their fans at all, apart from when they scored

Ffs nazon silly yellow out for tuesday
Which did work well...until you told everybody the game planJust get at teams! All you need to do, play like we did second half, on the deck switch it quick, catch them unawares and run at the opposition!
The personnel we have is made for this.
Perhaps he just fancied Tuesday night off !!I know...is that right? Heard that on the football league show. So he misses Stevenage.
Btw all 5 of his cards have been for stupid stuff! Definitely should be fine if he wasn’t on loan (as we want him to stay)
Thats the thing though when its in your blood you can escape for so long but it comes back my hiatus was in the 80,s until just before we won the FA cup but I never went to Wembley then because I felt like a plastic fan and I couldnt afford it eitherJust back and wanted to do something with my thoughts.
This was my first game in nearly 2 years. I still follow Cov but only from afar. I only went as we live close (ish) and a connection to Lincoln. I have to say I loved it. I Can't understand some of the comments made earlier as I thought it was great to see we had some actual quality, even when losing. I think that's why I gave up. It was the sheer miserableness of it all. There are some issues to tackle but that looked like a team that could play football and wanted to. That's all I wanted.
Listened to the Lincoln fans around me cheered me up too with several saying we were the best they'd played. I thought both sides had quality.
Am now looking forward to my next game!
Was you being frank? Special delivery ehhThe only thing he'll be laying out is his stamp collection. I've done more menacing dumps than him.
Anyway a great win on the road again jyst need to score goals at home and stop dropping silly points
Yes, that's how I roll.Was it a whole arctic roll ?
Biamou has held the ball up excellently this half when he's had the ball played to his feet and had an option to lay it off to.
This is the frustration. We're not far off. Couple of key signings in January, and maybe slightly less negative tactics, and we should be promoted.
I like Biamou. Think he's got a lot of very good attributes considering this is his first season training full time and in the football league - good in the air, can pick a pass on the deck, got a bit of flair too for a big man. No striker at this level is going to look great the way we set up in the first half of games - he was very isolated and when the ball did come his way it tended to be long. I've noticed McNulty likes to come short for the ball, lay it off and spin off his man but he needs to play closer to Biamou in the first half of games like yesterday when we're going longer.Just looking through the match thread, lol the amount of back tracking and hypocrisy lol.
Biamou offers so much, his contribution yesterday to the win was fantastic imo compared to their massive centre backs whom he was elbowed and kicked by, challenged everything in the air, made a nuisance of himself didn’t shirk a single challenge and He ran himself ragged. And like you say when it was played to feet he layed it off bringing others into play.
He is light years ahead of Ponticelli in this respect. Although I did feel Robins could have put on JP for last few mins fresh pair of legs especially after stokes came on.
Won't comment of tactics, players etc - not my forte as you know mate, but I can understand people with some knowledge having a moan, or getting frustrated when we drop points. Less that two years ago we were nailed on to go up, then it was we can still make the autos, then we can still make the play offs, until the inevitable happened. Recent history (cow me, virtually all of my living memory to be honest) will make some people worry and doubt our ability.Exactly. Just 4 points from the automatic promotion places, yet we are not good enough, and are a poor side, playing the wrong tactics.
We all know there are little tweaks to be made, such as a threat from the right to compliment Jones's threat from the left, but we simply cannot be as bad as people are making out on here. We are in the play off positions and have an absolutely immense defensive record.
don't get why people hammer our own players. max and mcnulty don't deserve the stick they getI like Biamou. Think he's got a lot of very good attributes considering this is his first season training full time and in the football league - good in the air, can pick a pass on the deck, got a bit of flair too for a big man.

Some of the vitriol aimed at individual players this season has really made me angry especially when the root cause of a lot of the frustration is tactical choices - all these years of failure has made a lot of fans very quick to look for a scapegoat often without appreciating the nuances of the tactical choices unfolding before them.
An attacking midfielder and a winger for me if we can extend Nazon's loan
Personally feel our squad is looking very strong indeed. When you think Beavon and Hyam and Kelly Evans can’t make the match day squad.
I think Robins man management is going to be severely tested during the next couple of months as he try’s to keep the players on the bench.....Stevenson, McNulty, Vincenti etc and those not in squad Hyam, Camwell and Beavon,
Hyam would get into most league two teams easy.
We need one striker, and one winger.
I think if we had some pace on the other flank and a more creative midfielder we'd be there, possibly a striker. To be fair to Robins Andreu would have been the creative player and there is no planning for an injury like his. In January I'd move Beavon on and take a punt on and national league striker thats scoring goals.
This is the frustration. We're not far off. Couple of key signings in January, and maybe slightly less negative tactics, and we should be promoted.
