Mowbray must've been an idiot then
He'd only do that if he was a complete idiot prepared to write off 2.5 years salary
it was shocking football though wasn’t itOh give it a rest, we only didn't win due to a silly goalkeeping error
I believe they pick and choose when to perform. Whenever there’s nothing at stake, or nothing’s expected, they produce the best football they’ve produced in their time here.I disagree that he's on the edge and don't think not winning tonight makes Saturday d-day either. Going back to what I said a couple of games ago he gets until at least Christmas.
There is a lack of logic on here really, you either believe all the players are shite or the manager is.
They’ve done nothing to dispel this tonight that’s for sure. A weak as piss bunch of players and what will piss me off the most is if we go down, the worst offenders will be the first on the phone to their agents trying to leave.

Well given that he only had 8 months left on his contract it's hardly comparableMowbray must've been an idiot then
The teams not much different to last season.
You are watching us right? You're watching Robins piss about with the line up/formation every week with no obvious plan. And what's the game plan exactly because I'll be fucked if I know.
I think its very weak when people suggest there's no one out there that could get better from this group.
End of the day I just want us to stay up now which is an extremely low bar, but sadly I think Robins takes us down.

It’s hard not to intensely dislike some of them.

We look like relegation contenders, simple as that. I do feel for the decent professionals we know are in that dressing room.Learning to take criticism is part of the game.
Trouble is now, there's no Kelly or Fadz, (or even Adi) in the dressing room to help them through it.
They look totally rudderless.
There's probably several players with their mentality in most changing rooms, but there's probably half a dozen others who can cajole and lift them. We don't look to have anyone like that.
I’m sorry but I do not agree at all. Whether you think he’s spent money on tosh, or this model of buying only younger players is wrong - fine.
But Doug thinking he can make a fortune … ??
Just excuses for poor management at this point tbh. You can pick at things one by one anyway, like did Doug block Robins bringing in experience? Wheres the proof? If @Saddlebrains is to be believed we were close to signing Alan Browne and Robins pulled away to sign Stamenic.So you agree with the way a winning formula has been ripped up then?
As for last season, You do realise the things I've mentioned were in place last season and now they're not.
Maybe people are pissed off with being in the bottom. 3. Maybe people didn’t want an error strewn nervy match when we’ve spent 40 million quid on this squad?We don’t make that one howler and we win.
I genuinely don’t understand what people were looking for tonight, a great performance was highly unlikely to happen.
an error strewn nervy match was always the likeliest outcome and that’s exactly what happened.
Nothing has changed for me, apart from it’s a point which might help a bit with the confidence, and onto the next one, where I hope to god the atmosphere doesn’t turn toxic if we’re nervy and low on confidence again.
You are not going to get a great performance all of a sudden from a team lacking in confidence without an away win for 7 months.The performance was grim.

No one has satisfactorily answered the question of why are we lacking in confidence and why are we without an away win in 7 months?You are not going to get a great performance all of a sudden from a team lacking in confidence without an away win for 7 months.
The second half was reasonable. It should have been enough to win but for a goalkeeping mistake.

1. Because we've not won any of the away games in that periodNo one has satisfactorily answered the question of why are we lacking in confidence and why are we without an away win in 7 months?
We produce a half decent game we go 2 or 3 up and one howler makes no difference to the result. I’m sorry, we saw this with Southgate’s England all summer and people got blinded by results there too.We don’t make that one howler and we win.

Looking at the fixtures after Luton it really doesn't look good if we don't win on Saturday, can't see him lasting past November right now if we fail to get 6 points from Luton and Derby matches.I disagree that he's on the edge and don't think not winning tonight makes Saturday d-day either. Going back to what I said a couple of games ago he gets until at least Christmas.

Why haven't we won any?1. Because we've not won any of the away games in that period
2. See 1
Because we've not scored not goals than the opposition in any of them.Why haven't we won any?
Great no, but better than what we served up. We took the lead early on then reverted to type instead of going for another.You are not going to get a great performance all of a sudden from a team lacking in confidence without an away win for 7 months.

His assistant was fired for gross misconduct wasn't he? I'm sure Robins had some say in the new coaching setup, would be odd if he didn't.I can't prove it, but he used experienced players for 7 years and now he's got none.
Had an assistant for 7 years now he hasn't got one.
Used loans for 7 years now there's none.
If that's on him then it's fucking terrible management, but you have to be pretty stupid to think it is.
Because we've not scored not goals than the opposition in any of them.
Do you want me to say because of Mark Robins?
Fuck off you Tory c**tYou're confident that this is a very long blip
So if possible I want you to tell me what the cause is and what can be done to correct it
Agree. It reeked of tension which transmitted into an incredibly poor quality of game. We’re tense and tight and lacking leadership and experience. For me it’s now time to pick on personality. Which means starters have to include Bassette, Wilson (when fit), Kitching and Bidwell. The only crumbs of leadership we have.We don’t make that one howler and we win.

We have had a very generous fixture list for 11 games and can’t manage a point a game. Decent teams will ruin this side.
Relative to the level we have players who really should not be anywhere near the drop zone.not the same is it, Southgate had all kinds of exceptional talent at his disposal high on confidence, it was much clearer to identify his coaching as the issue. Totally different scenarios.
Looking at the fixtures after Luton it really doesn't look good if we don't win on Saturday, can't see him lasting past November right now if we fail to get 6 points from Luton and Derby matches.
I mean we could get points from the other games but realistically Middlesbrough, Sunderland, Sheffield Utd and Burnley I'd be amazed if we get more than 3 points and would only expect around 1 point.
If we only pick up a point against Luton and pick up the 3 v Derby you are looking at 5-7 points from the next 6 fixtures.
Be looking at 17 games with 14-16 points and it's hard to see how it carries on.

And away from all that, again, he's just been totally bizarre this season. I know you don't really rate how he's approached a lot of matches this season but people are afraid to go further into it because it's Robins.
I only saw the second half. I didn't think we were that bad. Certainly should have won. Just some bad decision making and I didn't see the performance as shit, just saw a team low on confidence, which is natural.You are not going to get a great performance all of a sudden from a team lacking in confidence without an away win for 7 months.
