So a draw was a good result then ?Other than Hamer I struggle to find a player we have that could get in their side.
Most on here didn’t think it would be a struggle a lot felt we would be challengingWe knew this season was going to be struggle. We just want to stay up and currently we are doing that.
Yes I think we could be playing better and griding out results (Friday being an operative example) but we are where we are.
A lot of goals we have given away have been silly errors (mis-placed passes, penalties). Other than a couple of games this season we haven't been ran ragged.
Stick with Robins. I don't think we should be sacking him even if we are relegated to League 1. I personally think we will stay up but that is on the basis that we stop the above.

What do you think needs to happen in order for us to stay up. Do you want Robins sacked and if so who would you bring in? Do you want us to sign players in January? Do you want things to reamin as they are in the hope the amanager and squad wil pick up results?In isolation
The real issue is the cost of relegation. There is an immediate hit of over £3 million in TV money. We’d struggle to retain our better players - and probably would need to sell anyway to plug gaps in finance. Therefore hamer, walker (and or Godden) O Hare etc will attract interest
At the same time we’ve got players like Kastaneer and Hillsner in contract and nowhere near good enough. As things stand he has players he signed he has frozen out.
It’s very doubtful we’d get back again. Out finances and impact if playing out of the city will have a massive impact
We also have no obvious young players we can sell for significant money
It’s absurd to even not try and avoid relegation if it’s concluded a manager change May at some point kick start some results
That's just plain riddiculous.Most on here didn’t think it would be a struggle a lot felt we would be challenging
We can never thank him enough for what he has done for our clubI honestly hate some of our fans at times. The people calling for his head now are the same people that will be looking at the playoffs after one win. Reactionary nonsense.
He’s just promoted us to the championship against all the odds and people are talking about his job security after 12 games. We’re only here because of him. Even if it’s for 1 season be thankful to him for it.
Parts of what you say are true. the financial hit, loss of some of our better players etc, etc. in fairness we have to see what Hilsner offers but take your point. But then that beggars the question should our owner allow extra funds for the January window to help preserve our championship status, doesn’t have to be transfer fees but two or three quality loans which will obviously cost us wage wise but perhaps give the experience needed to our young squad.In isolation

But I fear with our current owner our league status doesn’t bother her.
In question to the four loans we have we could complete the £750k Sheaf deal which to me is an investment, and then we can play another two loanees, I’d try for Giles too if the price was right.
This is a pointless thread. There is not a chance in hell that MR will be sacked.
Not only that, but what would we do with the flag with MR wearing the burger king crown?

I believe that deal is set up, you might call it bonkers that’s your opinion but imo Sheaf has demonstrated he is capable at this level and still learning and gaining experience so getting that dosh back I’d think wouldn’t be a problem, but whatever, we need new blood, we could sell and invest, do loans or both but imo they need to be experienced which will cost, for that to happen is down to our owner.It’d be bonkers to spend that much on Sheaf with survival in the balance, there’s a reason why we put that clause in.

Barnsley had less points than we currently have at the same stage last seasonHow did clubs like Barnsley and Luton survive last season then?
we can only have 1 loan to play - robins actual signings in the summer other than Hamer have not improved the squad
What if they trust him and loan more money and we still go down. Then what?
Barnsley had less points than we currently have at the same stage last season
The managerIndeed what changed?
Barnsley took 15 points from the last 10 games last season, that's how they stayed up
With a new manager
Indeed what changed?
The other thing of course no one seems to mention is would robins stay for that long
His track record aside from us is on a par with Russel Slade and any success easily gets forgotten.
Relegated and then mid table next year he’s looking like a manager on the decline and a Nathan Jones type who succeeds only at one club
With a new manager
