On the plus side, if ever you want to make some easy money, just wait for the team to be announced, then when Luis Binks is announced as playing, put a bit on the opposition to score, and you’re quids in (and hurting the bookies)

Keep doing that for the season, and if we all do it, we could fund a huge piss-up in Lloret to drown our sorrows after a season of absolute shite

Seems to be the pattern that we concede when we are in control of the game. Surely that is a concentration issue.
Think Torp needs a bit of a run in the starting line up. Looked good again.
Don't get how Simms comes on ahead of Bassette, after his Preston performance.
Van Erwijk another poor performance. What's happened to him? Saito made him look slow and clumsy at times and his use of ball was so poor.

We were never in control of the game.

To be fair to Jack think he’s in the top 5 for chances created. Right now think it would hurt us to remove him.

What's the quality of those chances? Also I imagine hugely helped by being the set piece taker.

Was it me, or was there some ‘tension’ between MVE and Robins at the end there?

Really poor game between two teams bereft of any confidence, it was a nailed on draw. We are far too passive when leading which leads to us conceding the equaliser, Dovin has to do better with the goal and was clearly anticipating a cleaner strike, depressing stuff right now.

We looked decent in patches today and that’s a very slight improvement from Saturday.

Still no identity to the team and way too many underperformers. Absolutely bereft of confidence.

No idea how MR (or anyone) changes that.

Too many players look like they either aren’t interested or scared. And MR has none of his usual lieutenants to help.

I'm starting to really hate some of our players. Most of them in fact. The usual suspects from last summer all of whom are showing their true spineless colours again. Rudoni is almost as much of a conman as Palmer was. At least I would notice Palmer. Rudoni is like the invisible man.

Can't see how the horrendous atmosphere on here doesn't change unless we keep winning matches.

Even if we won tonight and lost against Luton we'd still be having the same conversations.

I said I'd stay away and in fairness I should have , can't see me having much in common with most on here over the coming weeks

We looked decent in patches because the opposition like us are destined for relegation.

No top team would take the lead after 3 mins and then not push to kill off the opposition

Robins still sees us as plucky underdogs and it's boring to watch

Disappointing result but that was better, second half we completely bossed it. The first half drop off is more to do with confidence than anything else I think.

Neither were we really. We never took a hold of the game. You can’t when you’ve got a CAM that doesn’t touch the ball.

I'm the most Pro Robins bloke going. I literally always see the positives and give benefit of the doubt where needed. This is this first time in years where I'm questioning him. It's awful motivation

Rudoni is a significant downgrade on O’Hare, and unfortunately Palmer too

The goalkeeper is to blame for the equaliser , dived like he predicted a penalty it was down the middle , no excuse for that

Watching their goal back yes howler by Dovin but in fairness dovin was already diving as the QPR player shaped to volley into the corner but he actually shinned it straight down the middle instead

Agreed, I don't think changing the manager is miraculously going to get a tune out of this shower of shit.

Hopefully we're not already marooned at the bottom of the table when the January transfer window opens, we need at least 3 experienced signings to settle the ship.
Click to expand...

This exact team minus O'Hare has proven it can get results and play much better at this level. Does a new manager solve it not necessarily but the players can do it, up to whoever to work out how.
