Will have a lot of anger towards these players if he ends up carrying the can for their weekly disappearance acts.

John Sillett was sacked when in a hospital bed and no one in the club bothered to even tell him.

He heard it on the radio

if Robins now feels the need to pander to the fans, some of whom are just fickle and short sighted, then he really does need to go.

It's true, our noise has been hopeless. It's been on a decline for ages but the real turning point was at Watford when fans booed the Doug song.

However, there was still 3000 there today. Players gave us little.

I think that depends on his overall demeanour, right now he offers nothing positive and his changes are usually fucking up our impetus. Even the Preston commentators were getting twitchy for the 15 minutes or so were getting on top and then ……he changes it and we lose the advantage and concede. That can’t go on until Xmas .

Players aren't automatically entitled to support

Loyalty is a two way thing. If one side can't be arsed to hold up their end of the deal then the unwritten agreement of loyalty is gone

That's it, fans fault

Players and manager need to give the fans something to cheer about and get behind. At least when we were shit we had players who seemed to care and fight for the cause.

They were worshipped and lauded at heroes at Wolves and Wembley. They'd get more love than at any other club if they put the effort in.

They've spoilt it themselves in the past few months.

At the end of the day it’s down to results. That’s what gives you the chance or not . At this moment in time we are not looking like we could score in a brothel. That’s down to MR . The recruitment has been shit , L1 players who are just not up to it .
so criticism is fair and just . MR and DK are responsible, on their head this lyes

It was madness he was being lauded for it as well, especially using the Pboro chairman saying how great he was.

It wasn't to be honest.

Decent for about 10 minutes in the second half. Even after the disallowed goal there wasn't any effort.

People are bored and fed up really. It's very miserable.

If you had just rinsed a club for an obscene amount on one player, of course you’d stay on good terms with the chairman.

Travelling up and down the country watching that absolute shower of shit. Spent endless amount of money the least I’d expect is an ounce of effort. They’ve just had a week off training to try change the rot, today I didn’t see anything to suggest we’re in a better position. I’m sorry, Robins thank you for bringing us back from the oblivion but this can’t continue.

You can't say there wasn't an ounce of effort. We may not have been effective, but Preston were still fortunate to beat us.

Agreed. I’m not adverse to industrial language but when it’s gurning shouting c**t again and again around children and pensioners and looking for attention, you can expect to be regarded like the degenerative disease your teeth look like they suffer with.

It looked very lethargic.

I didn't see this high effort that people are mentioning.

Irony is, you're now abusing people abusing players.
