Robins: “Elsewhere, Godden and Waghorn came on and they needed some minutes in their legs. Waghorn has been ill all night and he’s been sick in the dressing room just.

but you still played him, bizarre

Only two of them started.
Of those two only one had a replacement in the squad, (Maatsen for Bidwell). So then who replaces Maatsen?

The squad is thinner than the side of a fiver.

So explain to me if they’re not good enough at this level why they have played most of their careers for teams at the top end of this division?

He is still the right man for the job but I don’t want to hear him say the players are tired and once again make only two changes, the game was dead at three nil so he could have at least used Reid for ten minutes at the end.

Agreed in principal, but players past is no guarantee of them having the attributes to be a success in our team and a good fit for how we play.
Players also have peak years and as they get older don't suit some ways of playing. High tempo high press for example.

LWB we need one with pace, dynamism and decent end product. Bidwell seems to be lacking in these areas.
Waghorn is a forward, goals are required his record for the past two seasons is horrible.
Kane is okay and can deliver decent balls and with him and Dabo this area of the pitch is not a priority to strengthen.

Back to the op title...Robins is the man to take us forward 100%. He needs more help from his recruitment team in identifying players with the right attributes to take the team forward.

Weird game to express the view that Kane isn’t good enough for this level

If there was ever a case why a mute function is needed on this website. This guy is it.

Yes Swansea is quite a long way but i think when he took us to Carlisle in league 2 is probably the furthest he's taken us

Bump.

I can only assume Robins picked names out of a hat with this team selection

Or he chose the players that were available. Look at the bench. We're decimated by injuries

No one can surely blame Robins for the poor finishing again last night which has been pretty awful all season. I'd be interested to see how many shots Gok has had compared to goal ratio.

Which would suggest - given he’s missed some absolute sitters and a pen, he’s scored some goals he had no right to score

Under the current ownership model I'm not sure that any manager could take us further, unless we overperform and have a lot of luck. We are where we are.

I would say it suggests that Shitsu have taken us as far as they can...if they don't have the same aspirations as the management team
