Last season wasn't a failure ? Why are fans completely making things up
Click to expand...

Last season was a failure. Not getting into SBT personality argument talk. But it was a failure. Big day out in the cup and bottling getting into the playoffs is a failure.

I called it BEFORE at the time, but the amount of reasons and excuses being slung about is mental. Fuck the cup. The season was a failure.

Sheff Utd were 2 Champ, 1 NL and 1 Prem, so as I say, almost identical. Similar with Millwall 2014. Just saying an easy run isn't that rare.

Millwall’s manager quit straight after making the semi-final that year btw, because of their bad league performance

But he hasn’t had fewer options. He’s had a squad of about twenty the whole time. He’s not bought players that we dont need, the squad if anything is a little short. We’ve overpaid on a couple but are told that’s Doug’s domain. The problem is that as a whole they’ve not been up to scratch. Is your contention that Austin was presenting options and Robins was picking the wrong ones?

My contention is that having a much wider pool of players from which to choose signings was a problem for him in the way that trying to make a squad from say £1-2 million wasn’t.

Without a win against Wolves and an unexpected comeback against Man U it was a failure as it was going backwards in the league

Impossible to say what would have happened. I'd say the cup run cost us a shot at the playoffs. The players went full self preservation mode in that Brum game pre Semi. That and the mental fall out of how we lost the cup took a toll. Maybe if we'd not got the comeback win at wolves we'd have focused on the league more. Impossible to say.

Why are you focusing on how shit our past has been.
We were setup and ready that season and the cup run fucked it. We bottled it. You are going to do a tendon reaching to defend Robins. It’s mental.

We'd lost 2 of the best players in the division, we'd also lost alot of experience and we practically rebuilt and finished 9th and got to the fa cup semi final .. there is no failure there

There is nothing to defend robins about, his record here is superb , your thought process is mental not mine

Has his compensation even been sorted yet, would imagine he can't take a job until that is sorted

Agree to disagree. Last season was a failure. Any mention of a slither of Robins doing something wrong you are out typing through tears.

I love Robins, your nonsense is making me look like I don’t.

I just don’t buy that. The old pool was still available. What’s helping him trawl that pool is what’s changed.

Was a weird season all round. Some of the greatest moments in my time watching CCFC paired with some of the worst performances of the Robins era. Least we’ve kept half of that legacy going into this season.

Ok away from me and you giving it 10 licks , it wasn't a failure as financially we benefitted massively from the cup run and genuinley unlucky not to make the final , the league we literally had a slow start a fantastic 25 game period between october and April and fell away at the end .. the squad was rebuilt off the back of losing what we now know is a world class striker and a top midfielder .

Personally felt it was a succesful season we remained competitive throughout until the end

6 points worse off than the playoff season but had a big rebuild on

So people aren’t lying if they consider it a failure?
I’m open to opinions on it. But the blindness to the amount of times we have been shite for the last two years annoys me.

Well I try and debate it with them and then end up arguing because there are little digs here and there from both sides and I call you an alcoholic and you call me yokozuna .
