Not sure if anyone has ever said Robins had lost the dressing room
Individual players have been pissed off when out of the side but that's the same at every club

Next few weeks should tell us a lot about Brights status at the club. If he is not seen on the field, stories will keep building up and a decision will have been made to move him on with very little news or fuss.

If he gets on the field and performs the options open up for all. That's what I think most fans want, make headlines in the green instead of headlines about spending off it. He is gifted but by the sounds of it, is a few fries short of a big Mac meal.

Think all the players that played the full 90 minutes on Saturday will not be included , the rest will play a part so Rose , Maatson, de costa , waghorne and Walker will play a part I expect plus the non playing subs from Sunday bright should be in squad with the stronger of the under 23’s Reid, Bappaga , ruse and howley , drysdale , this game has probably come a week early for godden too

Hopefully we play a strong team. I’d like a good cup run. Winning breeds winning. Some of our lads need minutes. I wouldn’t worry about injuries at this point of the season

Do you think he's on a contract that is geared towards appearances?

I think Maatsen will be rested because he will need more than just 2 days recovery

Curious for the team. Mixture of squad and first teasers needing the minutes I imagine. Wanna see big performances from walker, Drysdale and bright

If I counted correctly, 7 Championship clubs knocked out tonight. Marosi saved a penalty in Shrews penalty shootout win, and I noticed Baka and Ben Stevenson scored in their clubs respective shootout wins.

Have to agree I’d play as many as Sundays team as possible they need as much game time as possible imo, there’s an international break at the end of this month so we can have a breather and re-charge the batteries then

Yeah, this.

I don’t like these rumours being spread on here about him being a party animal, that he’s too hungover to play or whatever.

It’s all very well posting rumours about player X is going to join, player Y looks like he might leave etc. But posting rumours like this without any proof is out of order IMO.

Yes he has previous, yes the rumours might be true but as above let’s leave it to Robins to decide what happens with Bright and let’s not hang him before he’s found guilty based off some spurious internet rumours.

100%.

My view is he is a few weeks behind in preseason, and the club want to get him to that level before he comes in. Its not like Robins has kids on the bench ahead of him on Saturday.

I think he could potentially involved today, maybe from the bench.

Can we play DaCosta in midfield and just let him run at them with minimal defending.
