The club have been backed exceptionally by the fans, beyond what was budgeted for and we've had a good run of televised games with a fee for the lad poached by Villa. We're not talking £10 million more, just something. Instead we get the owners charging more interest so we remain mired in debt to them.
Robins really needs help and the people above him just won't provide it.

When could our owners have helped him more? We haven't reached the window yet. Last season we recruited fairly well, and improved the squad. It's a progressive thing and we are progressing - go back 3 seasons. It can't always be a straight line of progression. In a football match your side can't always win. You should know that as a City fan!
Fair enough if they back him in January but I won't hold my breath.
They are making him operate with a paper thin squad which clearly isn't suitable for the rigours of a very competitive league.

We will achieve nothing while we are saddled with this lot, we are as high as they will allow. Going into the premier league is a dream the average wage there is way more than a million a year per player.
The crazy lure/money of the PL is well illustrated by the fact that Blackburn's owners, who are knee deep in debt, are offering their playing squad £10m to split between them, should they get promoted.

I've never advocated spunking millions and loading the club with more debt but we are clearly painfully lacking in depth and quality outside of the main pool of 15 or 16 players.
One of which is our club captain who's been a hero going through the leagues but now is so clearly nowhere near the level he's forcing his midfield partner to do two jobs.I've never advocated spunking millions and loading the club with more debt but we are clearly painfully lacking in depth and quality outside of the main pool of 15 or 16 players.

The result bothers me a lot less than the performance.
Agreed - although I felt we didn't get the rub of the green in the first half, and Millwall were hanging on. Second half was poor though.
Don't disagree - but as I said, we played ok in the first half (although Godden and Walker were not clicking as a pair). It was the second half we were clearly flat and I thought MR should have changed things by the hour mark.I can accept simply losing to a better side or a moment of individual brilliance. But let’s be clear, they were as bad as we’ve seen this season and understandably so. Robins said our 11 only got to train together twice-still twice more than the opposition.
The man needs help urgently

Half time report from the Millwall forum :
0-0. coventry look the most likely to score. We need another midfielder - too much space and time for their players. I’d put Murray Wallace there - and Malone on left.
First half I don’t remember any clear chances being created. Good positions were squandered and there was some real carelessness in possession with a few other unfortunate cases of the ball getting tangled in players’ legs.
Second half it was clear that nobody was going to score unless someone fucked up. You look at the bench and really the manager can’t do much. In January we’ll see if the owners want to continue helping themselves to any surplus we make or if they give Robins a fighting chance. Won’t hold my breath

Sheaf and O'Hare were both guilty on more than one occasion of squandering good positions with really poor, what should have been, fairly simple passes.
It's not often I can't find a positive, even after a bad result, but there wasn't one last night that I can think of.
Hyam was a positive for me in his individual performance, a few other nice cases of the centre backs carrying the ball into their half and surprising the opposition. But it all falls to shit when they get near the box.
Teams who struggled last year like Blackburn and Huddersfield are vying for promotion. In reality we have been sliding for weeks.
The form at home has collapsed. Millwall are also more likely to be in the hunt for promotion. We won’t go down due to points accumulated at the start but there is zero point in being relegation fodder season in season out when we have one of the better supported teams.
Good point, Faz played well though wasn't him who got out jumped Afobi for the goal?
Or EcclesFirst half O'Hare had his shot blocked by the keeper - Walker's follow up was well blocked by the keeper and Walker should have scored with that glanced header that cleared the bar.
Second half, we had Allen, Gyo and Jodi Jones (without knowing levels of fitness) all capable of impacting the game - i'd have brought them all on earlier than he did, but hey ho.
Why are we relegation fodder season in, season out based on one completed season?
Do you want us to get relegated, so that we can be successful in the league below?
We ought to be able to slowly improve the squad each window, which should help us progress. Football fans tend to live in the here and now, hence few look at the long term progress, but look at recent results. i agree with your concerns about the way SISU are charging us £££s re: interest on loans regarding the balance sheet, and don't pretend to know what that means for us in the medium/long term. What I do know is that the rise from L2 has been brilliant, and I don't want that being destabilised (whether that be from our owners or the fanbase 'turning' on what has recently proved a successful model (which I know could change).
