Interested to see if MR is calm or angry after this. Hopefully a mix. Some players are getting fit, some are inexperienced, but some should be doing better. I think he will reflect that in his appraisal. Not too fussed, but some players are confirming what we thought. You can carry one, occasionally two, but not a handful

We need shots to get over that performance.

Genuinely feels like Robins uses this match every year as a fitness exercise.

We know most of these players are better than that tonight ... but getting minutes in legs will be Robins first thought after such a disjointed pre season

Reading this forum, it seems like some point are more upset about defeat tonight than buzzing about the win Sunday.

I remember after going out to Gillingham they immediately took Eccles on loan after he impressed. I'm assuming if we offered Northampton a similar deal with Allen or Shipley after tonight they'd laugh in our faces.

He will be calm and philosophical. You dont kick your players in public after a bad performance.

One of their starting midfielders played essentially Sunday league for a YouTube team 2 years or so ago. We should have enough to beat this level of opposition, clearly we don't so hopefully Robins addresses it so we can have a positive season.

Right. I’m not one for being negative about players.

But I don’t want to see DaCosta again.

You didn't see him much that match , because he was calling for the ball on the A444 he was that far out of position

So on that showing we may be short of cover at LWB, RWB, GK.

And the lad coming in at CB couldn't make the Blues team last year.

no I’m saying those players are going to be all playing championship games this season and it’s laughable that we came undone against a Northampton reserve team

Spotted on the A34 near Oxford, caught a glimpse of Kastaneer still sliding back from Portsmouth.

What? That’s like saying we were in League 2 a few years ago so it’s embarrassing if any Championship side loses to us
