Don't think anyone said it was fun did they? Just an entertaining game, which I thought it was. It was edge of the seat stuff at times.

It probably was to be fair but I’m too seething to see it. For the neutral absolutely

He should also look at himself. His weaknesses aren't improving and whilst he is entitled to hang the players out to dry in the post match interview, he needs to do the right thing and accept responsibility. His arrogance on this is frustrating, especially after a result like that.

I don't see any value in criticising players in public. He should accept responsibility himself.

Waghorn, Kelly, Dabo and Moore are finished. Need to be shifted on, thank goodness we’ve brought in a new RWB, my only thought is now Panzo is out for 3 games that we will have to go to a back 4 now surely.

I'll admit I left at 4-1, I'm not one for leaving early and had that been a league game I wouldnt. I wasn't sitting and watching that against a NL side, it was appalling.

Congratulations to Wrexham, an away day like that with a big following is why you go to football. They deserved it.

The only positive is the 20 loyalty points.

I’m not sure they deserved the win. But well done and good luck in the next round.

I wouldn't be surprised if the arsenal lad was first choice and Burroughs was second choice RWB from this point on ..

And yes I'm starting to agree that maybe dabo has had his best years here , and Robins will likely look to shift kane and dabo in the next few months

I'm not at all convinced by Burroughs.

Just on the bus back, can I just thank you for a fantastic day. Met a few of your fans before the game and thought you were very welcoming and a great bunch.

Obviously delighted we won. I'm not sure we played that great to be honest. After 60 mins, I felt fairly comfortable, then you absolutely hammered us.
The key was you couldn't defend our set plays even in the National League I ain't seen a team struggle so much.


We started the game with 4 regulars missing, which was a massive surprise as i thought we would have played our best 11. Your 2nd goal gave you a massive lift after Macfadzean fecked about again. He's only playing because of injury but my god he was terrible, then you absolutely trounced us even with 10 men. I thought we were fit but it just shows the difference in standard between NL and Championship.


We just couldn't deal with Gyökeres, I seriously hope he can fire you the PL, he was an absolute nightmare to play against.





All the best!

Wonder who he’s talking about. Moore and Waghorn are the obvious shouts I think but I’m struggling to imagine Moore would have the confidence to ask for a game to be honest. Maybe Kelly but that seems harsh when he’s coming back from injury.

Probably said to Kelly "I don't want to play you because you will be injured and I want to get rid of you "

Last time I checked, you didn't have to pay to make a substitution.

His in-game management is a massive problem, and his inability to critique it is starting to make me more and more frustrated with him as a manager overall. There has been so many times even this season (and previous) where everyone can see what is happening, and he does nothing about it. 60 minutes and it is substitution time, it so like clockwork that it makes it easier for opposition management to play against us.

He is a massive part to blame for today, and whilst the players are weak minded and poor at times, and whilst the board need to back him better, it isn't an excuse to be making the same mistakes over and over again and make him devoid of any criticism.

Well done to your team...we like to help 'lesser' teams our defence was shockingly bad, hope you get a good draw in the next round

He plays on the right wing back and spends the game cutting back inside. Then goes and plays left wing back and spends the game cutting back inside. Whilst Eccles is a centre mid, he looks far better than Burroughs there. He is raw, but I'm not quite seeing what others are at the minute.

Maybe he can banish himself for once again not making subs early when was obvious we needed too.

Problem will be he will banish some and keep his favourites like kelly

To be fair to Wrexham, they have been flying this season and are a historic league one-level team; yes they are non-league but they have the strength of a team 20 places below us, not 65 places.

But even so, we shouldn't be conceding 4 against them, even with a weakened team.

So no doubt we'll come back from Burnley with a 2-0 win, classic City, taking the piss...

Well in all honesty neither am I, however inexperience is probably on his side in this argument and his scope for improvement may well be there .. Robins looking to save some money may see it that way too

Ironically had McFadzean been on the pitch for us I think we'd have won comfortably

Worth noting that Burroughs has been an attacking midfielder in the reserves. Maybe today was the day to try him in his actual position!

Before a ball was kicked I thought we had enough on the pitch to win the match ..

The players have to take some blame , Robins should have changed it at half time .
