We’ve changed formation 2/3 times before this month

robins is accountable - just like he gets all the plaudits when we’ve done well.

ultimately - Robins doesn’t have to listen to them. They could have said something in August but if robins doesn’t agree… guess who gets the final say

Pretty sure he was aware of the incoming structure.

Aware, yes. But just cos he accepted it doesn't mean he wanted it.

His choices appear to have been:
No extra backroom staff and carry on
Extra backroom staff but not in a manner he wanted them
Quit

Will we need a taxi for Rhys or will he take his own Carr?

Sounded like he’s from Cyeeeerdiff (Cardiff for those not in the know) in the pre-match ‘grilling’ from Clive.

He wanted to portray confidence and loyalty, but his body language was quite clear that he’s not comfortable in the spotlight.

How is he? He’s not the manager and doesn’t have 100% control of the staff or players brought in.

Even Maxine Carr put up a better defence than this.

We were poor, but somehow got a draw, so phew.
Still not convinced by the team he put out.

We are so painfully short in midfield aren't we.

Very stark reminder of that today and that's why we ended up with the midfield we did on the teamsheet.

Well done to the coaching staff for today. Maybe not as shite as led to believe? Time will tell I guess but least we go into the break on a decent result now.

For all of the "he's gormless nonsense" he actually comes across quite well in his interview after the game.

Speaks very well I’ve got to say.

‘Were you surprised Sunderland let you back in?’

‘was it that they let us back in or was it that we imposed ourselves on them’

I like the cut of his jib.

Good result with a depleted squad, subs worked. Fair play, it is a much needed point and more importantly boost.

I was pissed off a couple of days ago (as we all were and are in some cases) but fair play to Rhys and the rest of the staff for stepping in to the interim role at short notice and getting a point after being 2-0 down

He speaks very well, just listened to his interview on CWR

The comments on here and social media have been disgusting towards him tbh.

Several people commenting he should be sacked instead of Robins. Utterly bizarre behaviour

Speaks really well. Passionate. A massive fuck you to anyone giving him shit yesterday and to all those daft enough to say they’d like to us to lose. Pricks.

Typical "non football" football fans, if that makes sense.

I was sceptical going into the game, thinking we'd get absolutely battered and it was looking like it might happen to start with... but to his credit he changed things a little, made some very good subs and changed the game around, even if Sunderland helped us along a little.

Missing our entire midfield in Sheaf and Eccles, and Torp had to be played deep again which he has never looked comfortable doing.

Nothing bad to say about him or how he reacted in the game. Great point against top of the league when most of us expected a pasting.

90% of the people who are talking shit about him don't watch the games or if they do, they have zero footballing knowledge.

Yeah it’s not a great situation but let’s not shit on individuals we know nothing about. Not like the coaches are players or a manager and earning a fortune either.

The people having a go at him on a personal level should be embarrassed. Hiding behind emotion and "grief"

He really did. Only a clown would say otherwise.
As I said at the time, extenuating circumstances the way hevwas thrown into the spotlight, but gormless none the less

Lots of people have said he didn't. Don't be so immature to call people who disagree with you a clown

Your a good poster. One of the best on here. But you have let emotion let you down these last few days.

Thought he played a high risk game second half , sunderland a couple times almost 3 on 1 but failed to find the pass to probably kill the game .. but we went for it and got our reward so fair play to him and the team .

Really Good point

Eh? I said he looked gormless in his first interview. What's that got to do with ITKs?
It was there for everyone to see.

Not sure how anyone could have been impressed with that interview but whatever floats your boat.
