Didn’t realise we got a week off before Boxing Day. Just keep grinding for two more games and we could be sitting very nicely come Christmas.

Huddersfield is massive. Win that and we go level and right in the mix for mid-table. Getting greedy now

And importantly Biamou had knee injury, explains why Baka come on Kelly. Explains a lot, no point risking anyone.

Can't disagree with the selection today all things considered except for LWB, McCallum has looked like he needs a breather

I know Shipley was taken off due to a knee injury but even before that the game was passing him by, doesn’t go in for a tackle. Has been great for us in L1 and L2 but he has struggled in the Champ and today was arguably L1 opposition.

Kelly. Monster captain and to score a second while in hospital is amazing. Don’t be surprised to see problems through the middle of the park now if he is out. Sheaf is a problem for us. He played so many sloppy passes that were to hard, too soft not reaching our players and needs to be switched on not to get out done for that penalty.

With Shipley and Kelly presumably out for Wednesday he needs to get his head back in gear.

despite their result today they're 8th in the form table, we're 7th, another big game.

I would be very very tempted to get Eccles back in January. Think he would be a much more useful asset in midfield than Shipley or Allen.

That game, Preston and Millwall will decide if we can make that leap to the next group of teams. Lots of big games coming up, and Norwich in the cup which we’ve got to fancy our chances in.

I'm definitely glad we didn't buy Sheaf.

There's a good player there, but he needs to up his game considering he's from one of the biggest club's academy.

MAcCallum is only option at left wing back. Shudder to think how Giles would have dealt with long balls. He did a lot of good stuff too which wasn’t as readily noticed. But wasn’t his best game going forward. Defensively was decent.

Seriously how anyone can say Baka should have come on ahead of Max.

Robins needs to sort his thinking out.

Picked up a knock before the game, so didn't want to risk - Robins

Is Liam Walsh even playing for Bristol C this season and is there any remote chance of loaning him again? He’d make the perfect addition to the team right now.

I don’t think it’s a financial advantage will cost more money to let’s fans in, if fans have already bought season tickets

i'd be quite happy to play me, you and 9 other roasters off here in the cup game and get leathered. All about survival for me.

Thanks for the update. Well someone in his mould would be what we need now with Kelly and Shipley out.

First season of regular first team football and in the championship shouldn’t that be taken into account ?
I think he’s potentially a very good player but his inexperience comes through at times.

Yeah TBF I think looking at how the injuries are stacking up we probably should be getting the U18s registered. I’m just an old romantic and love a cup run.

I'd be deleting that contract unless he bucks up his ideas.

I thought it was option to buy, but I can't remember what day it is

My main issue, is the inability to direct a pass 10 yards to a team mate.

I'm not expecting world class goals from him, just basic football skills.

it has the potential for a big pay day if we progress but with the intense fixture list I'm thinking it would probably be better to swerve it.

you're managing, give Robins a day off, you've obviously got a flair for creative tactical thinking.
