What does it need for Robins to accept that this system is utter wank?

Kelly is about 15 seconds behind the game.

Only surprise is that anyone is surprised. A fun night against a pub team doesn’t make you play off contenders. A sensible target is to finish top ten

Being 3 points off with 10 to play makes you playoff contenders.

I really hope Sheaf is fit enough to play some minutes, he is what we need in midfield right now

Both Kelly and palmer on stupid booking so now the lack of midfield can’t even tackle

We let Fadz go because we weren’t playing with a back 3. Since then we’ve gone back to it and most games it failed!

It’s almost as if he doesn’t want to face Wembley heart break again and is giving up on play offs

Looks like their scouts watched us and did a better job than our scouts.

Wants to play half the team out of position as opposed to one player

Kelly and Torp are far too slow to play together there against half decent opposition. And they keep taking the safe option and passing it back to our back 3. This formation sucks without a) forwards who can hold the ball up and b) midfielders (including wingbacks in that) that are prepared to be brave getting forward.

Is it fair game to criticise Torp yet? Poor for weeks.

Rubbish. He’s been our best midfield performer. I feel sorry for him having to play next to crap like Kelly and Lati

I think the obsession with playing Lati whatever it takes needs to stop too.

I don't think he's been that bad at all.

Torp is flapping out of tackles and Palmer has been hiding so far. With Latibeaudiere and others giving the ball away he's got a lot to do and a lot of ground to cover.

Yet another poor performance, even despite some good score lines we haven't played well for 2 months now

It's batshit mate, I'm pretty angry about it. Shall we go with system where we've been good or the system where we've been shit? Tough call apparently. This along with the needless arsing about with keepers makes me think he might be on the booze.

We cannot deal with the press without sheaf. I thought Kelly could muster it but he’s just not quick enough. He’s calm but not as switched on

Their defender on a yellow, at least get into him and get him sent off.

Keep it to 1-0 at HT then switch to the 4-2-3-1. Stops them getting the easy out ball every time their in possession.

Don’t ask me who comes on though. No one left who can play RW

People laughed at me for saying Lati was shite in the week. Surely people can finally see the light. He’s horrendous

Bidwell has come the closest to scoring and that was at the start of the game.
