If we want to be more aggressive, play Kelly FFS. If there is one thing he's good at is being aggressive.

Robins on sky

Saying he set the team up wrong.

He is saying we should have been more aggressive.

Don't get it

Can we now put to bed that O'Hare and Palmer can play in the box together.

Either something in training that we don't see, or Robins is trying to be too clever in his selections.

A really big concern is we have no leader on the pitch whatsoever.

MvE well off the boil.
Torp’s almost consistent piss poor delivery is being ignored.
COH is gone.
Poor January.

I’m sure the experts told us that Robins signed them to be played together. Hang on, they also rate Dasilva.

Robins saying

Key injuries.
Not aggressive
Didn’t play well in 1st half.
2nd half more aggressive.
We kept missing the targets. Too rash.
Not enough time on clock after we scored.
We weren’t clinical.
We were sitting back with 5.
Didn’t play through our attacking midfielders.
2 poor goals.
If we can play like we did in 2nd half we’ve got a chance. Teams are getting away from us. Games running out.

Basically he admits the season is over.

I think there are 3 options:

1. He knows more about the players and their fitness than we do
2. He's incompetent and has been winging it for years
3. He's doing it to annoy us

My money is on 1.

Or the thing he says every week isn’t a cunning ruse and is actually true and we have a small tired squad.

100%agree.
We have players who can play in a 3 to cover for Sakamoto.
He went back to the WB system at Sheff Weds in the cup and we were shit, and toothless. Same tonight.

He was woefully out of position on both shots.
The defending was very poor and the shots were enough to challenge any keeper, but his positioning was piss poor on both occasions.

Bold choice. I’m afraid the market says it’s 2 or 3 though.

All things being equal I think you’d rather have started Bidwell, Kitching and Wright in tonight’s game rather than on Monday night, but apparently it was imperative that we play full strength against Maidstone no matter what.

How are they related? We were aggresive when it was 2-1, he's saying we weren't agressive earlier in the game

Yeah I bet kitching is exhausted.

Can't keep moaning about being tired when he could have brought the kids on against Maidstone but didn't.

He didn't need to bring ohare on and other first teamers.

The actions don't match the words.

That's twice Robins has dropped a player after they have scored a couple of goals in a match. Poor performance and team selection. Play off chances are over.

Where should he be positioned for the second one with a cross coming from the left?

I often wonder what game you've been watching.

Our defending was shocking, but Wilson was in no position to react to either effort.
