For me though, I think that the players don't suit the formation and style of play and that could be changed. He's just not doing it.I'm not a traditional bedwetter, but this is the first time I've seen the manager look a little lost.
He's always been Mr Adaptable, finding solutions to problems, but if your problem is formation and you've built it around multi-milion pound signings, then it's not as easy to change it up. I think he's in a real pickle; suspect he knows what he needs to do, but to do it he has to admit to some very expensive mistakes.
Yes but theres still potential for the fans...whereas !!!They didn't. Just as bad as each other. There was absolutely zero atmosphere for 95% of the match. Even 5 minutes after O'Hare came on, the fans gave up.
Yup, I'm not worried yet either and now we have O'Hare back.Should say that even though it's dire at the moment I'm not particularly worried yet either, I think it'd still have to look shit by Christmas for me to have a proper wobble. I keep thinking about how awful our start to last season was compared to how it ended, and even though it's a completely different scenario, set of circumstances and collection of players now you have to cling on to something, logic out the window
Yeah same here. 5pts off I just can't get too panicked yet. If we within 5 at Christmas's if prob take that too tbhShould say that even though it's dire at the moment I'm not particularly worried yet either, I think it'd still have to look shit by Christmas for me to have a proper wobble.

I don't think I have actually had such a bad run of results all in just a few days, as I have now.I’m off to watch Coventry Rugby on Saturday, at least there you will get a fully committed performance for the entire game for £21 a ticket . I’ll watch the City on Sky on Monday, we can’t justify £74 to go right now.
Wasn’t Robins going on about how we also take personalities into account? What happened to that?There is absolutely no belief or relationships through the squad anymore, and its a major issue
Wasn’t Robins going on about how we also take personalities into account? What happened to that?
I think this might be the root of the problem but how do you measure this before you sign a player?Wasn’t Robins going on about how we also take personalities into account? What happened to that?
Yes I know how you feel Otis, I’m watching the cricket myself. I could at least throw in my Spanish football team Elche into that who ground out a 1-0 away win on Sunday.I don't think I have actually had such a bad run of results all in just a few days, as I have now.
England got walloped in the cricket on Saturday, then City lost and I also keep an eye on Folkestone Invicta, who on Saturday, were overwhelming favourites to win their game against a bottom side and they lost 3 nil, then England lost in the rugby Saturday night, then Sunday, my American Football team, Washington, who were again very clear favourites to beat an injury hit NY Giants side also lost. Tuesday Invicta played again and were 2-1 up and went on to lose 4-2 and then the City got beaten last night.
Usually there is a crumb of comfort from something and one win from somewhere down the line to cheer me a little.
Very crappy run at the moment and now England's cricketers seem to be doing their level best to cock today's game up too (122 for 6)
Grrrr
To be fair, we're only 90 mins away from 12th position.I expected comfortable midtable at the moment it looks like we’ve reverted back to our comfortable default position of 17th.
Maybe? And what?Didn’t you say Simms and Wright are the best front two in the league on paper?
Yeah I'm shocked and surprised. But come back to me at end of season let's see where they are.it’s okay @Londonccfcfan says Ipswich are poor and will struggle
So drastically wrong? At the time, on paper, they probably were the best on paper. An international striker who many were happy we signed along with someone who had a decent stint at Championship level last season. So it's not worked out - shit happens and people are wrong.When you’ve been so drastically wrong it’s hard to listen to anything else you come out with.
Perhaps if you attended more games you’d be taken more seriously.
So you disagree they weren't on paper one of the best pairings at the start of the season?You were wrong, it happens. No need to get so worked up. If you make some more games I’m sure you’ll learn
So you disagree they weren't on paper one of the best pairings at the start of the season?
And I've not used the ignore button before but I won't see your response to this as you're obviously a fucking idiot.
I don't disagree that it was a gamble but at the time (and I can't be arsed to go through the threads), everyone seemed delighted by the signing. That's what I based my optimism on - the same as the majority.Wright was obviously a gamble and it was only the money paid that made us think he is a good addition. Its looking more and more like a gamble that will fail.
‘Only 3 points from 12th’To be fair, we're only 90 mins away from 12th position.
It's a tough one - we're playing dreadfully, look devoid of confidence/ideas yet still sit closer to the play offs than relegation - albeit wondering where the next points are coming from.
Like some on here, despite the current annoyance, I'm comfortable that we're not going to be in a relegation dogfight and 'somehow', we'll start climbing the table sooner or later. MR has earned the right to ride out a shit-storm of a time. Granted, the fans who pay their hard earnt money, deserve something to cheer.
I'm ever the optimist....

Some of the sh*t on here since Rotherham scored last night is embarrassing. A lot of people looking for someone or something to rip in to. If you're that wound up, don't look to a bunch of footballers to sort it.
Tw*ts.
I’m a really chilled out bed wetter.Support your team
arguing on here and going crazy isn’t gonna help
yes we are shite atm, yes system isn’t working, yes robins has and unbalanced squad, yes we have signed duds
we are not in a relegation battle yet a couple of wins and we are back in it but we are gonna have to be content with mid table and average
January there will have to be a shake up
That is complete rubbish.a bunch of bollockless wimps who look disinterested and not give a fuck
1) you can't keep a player who wants to go
2) we can't afford to lose them for nothing
3) we can build a stronger unit with the cash raised.
Is anyone ‘getting off’ on doubling Rotherham’s win total?Things aren’t great right now and last night was a horrendous performance.
But people definitely get off on it - and that’s just as tragic.
It’s all on here. No issues with the great support of the SBAWe sold out you prick.
Where's the lack of support?
