MR not happy! - `too slow too cumbersome' `wins are vital' gets more digs in about squad size

Fair fucks, I want him to be rattled when we dont get 3

That was not the performance of a team that will trouble the play-offs in the long run.
We always look likely to comcede which is a worry.
We seem to start games sloppily too. At some point we'll find ourselves two down after 20 mins and not being able to get back into the game.
Robins sounds frustrated on the radio.
Not overly happy with performance.
Too slow from back to front.
Didn't perform to levels we expect.
Need to win games.
COH not fit to play - wanted too but staff said no. Too much for him.

A 96th minute equaliser when you haven't played well is exactly what teams who trouble the playoffs do.

If he read this forum I'm sure he'd be wondering who keeps telling Saddlebrains stuff every week more than anything so he almost certainly doesn't.

Don't think he said that it was O'Hare at any point to be fair. Just said one player hadn't travelled and others guessed based on limping off after the game on Sunday.

Of course Stoke get their first win in 4/5 games right before they play us.

That’ll be another fun trip to a difficult ground. At least we got Haji and Saka some much needed rest tonight.

Love listening to robins

He also believes we could have won. Holding us to high standards

Also putting the idiots who moan about team selection in their place. So obviously forced rotation.

On to the next one!

Not sure it puts anybody in their place. We got a last minute equaliser against Plymouth.

And wondering when it was his turn to be wanked off. That's probably why he's so irritable, been saving himself up for a year.

Wouldn't have thought MR would have been one to be checking social media from the time the team was put out and the end of the game.

The equaliser is irrelevant. He said he can't keep picking his strongest 11 every game

So posts about him picking a shambolic line up are just silly

wanted a couple more CBs in so we could rotate every half an hour

An extra wide forward or striker would’ve been nice but not sure how many more he’d want and be able to keep happy without chopping and changing every game. Tough when a couple of key players get injured but that’s football

Still not convinced some aren't CWR employees giving deliberate shit-takes to get fans to call in because they don't get (m)any callers.

Simms has to play 9 and Haji on the left whenever we have the legs.

No arguments left now.

I don’t disagree but yet after 32 games of often unspectacular football we still find ourselves top 6. Maybe that pattern continues for another 14 games

Fair enough, I’ll need to watch it again…. From my angle on the sofa it Seemed to hit their man, canon into another of their defenders, and bobble into the corner. Ultimately doesn’t matter, it’s ended up in the net. Same result as a screamer from 30 yards.

Kitch definitely got his left foot on it and it looked to bounce off the defender past the keeper, he meant to kick it.

Fuck me.

Just played away at a team solid at home who score lots of goals. They don't score for no reason. Said I would be happy with a point. I'm happy with a point. Sloppy? That's how they play. Got the same result as Southampton got.

Couldn’t disagree with anything MR said there really. Not adding more depth in the wide positions was always going to be a problem and so we’re going to end up fielding weakened or tired sides until the end.

Even though he doesn't seem to be at the level we need him to be for the league I still think he'd get at least a couple against Maidstone. He's a fair bit above that level still.
