Get the fuck in. Robins poor I’m afraid.

Brainless playing Shipley ahead of Hamer. And Baka ahead of Max.?...lost the plot.

Yeah it’s not like they have just played 6 games in 3 weeks and will have to play another 2 in quick succession.

Would you genuinely argue with those two being sub-standard?

I would add McCallum in who has been very poor in my opinion for a few games. I also think Walker should be doing better, regardless of this 'isolation' people talk about.

The rest of the team I'm very impressed with though. Dabo is doing really well despite the fact he was coming back from injury and a bit out of form it seems. He's played through that. Got to give credit to Biamou as well. I felt, particularly today, that he showed a few players up with his grit and determination.

I'm not sure you can question Bakas work rate, as I said in an earlier post it's hard to judge watching on TV, but he just doesn't look good enough.
He's not the only one, but again, it's not their fault, we're a team with a small budget in a competitive league, we're going to have to stomach carrying players who aren't up to scratch.

No I agree that those 2 are obviously not up to the standard that's why I named them. I couldn't say I'm massively concerned about any others.

Dabo and Hamer linking up today doing some one touch stuff looked prem quality
Click to expand...

Yeah, I know what you mean. I would back the others to probably break out of it.

Anyway, I don't particularly want to be negative. 3 points today is great and I'm really encouraged by the performance of a lot of players. Just wish we could win 7-0 and I could relax during a game for once!

I just listened to the interview with Robins. He kind of hinted that he clattered his knee, but I got the impression that he was sort of covering for him. He made a few comments about not being able to carry people. Surely if he was just injured, he would just state that. Make of it what you want really.

He also said Biamou didn't start because he was injured. Hamer didn't start due to concerns about disciplinary action being so close to a ban.

Quick update re: Huddersfield game. Their keeper went off injured at half time, and their best player up front (today) Danny Ward went off with a hamstring injury. Would still be happy with a point to keep the run going Our following game at Sheffield Wed, one of their better players Iorfa is now out for the rest of the season with a ruptured hamstring). Big game Forest v Sheff Wed midweek.

Not too worried about Forest and Sheffield W. right now. I’m watching teams like Brum, Preston & Millwall

You have a point because for two seasons in a row, I’ve told my mate our first away win of the season will be against Wycombe. Viola. Kelly of all people got the goals to win the game.

Tbf we won alot of cheap free kicks. It was an entertaining game but dreadful quality apart from lethal liam! Wycombe will drop, shame as the 6 points next season would be a nice boost for our play off hopes

Dabo of last season could have my babies, but if he's not fully fit then why play him if he don't absolutely need to do so?
Click to expand...

Dabo has been playing his way to fitness, but as long as he is not risking himself injury wise, even at 75% he is still a street ahead of any back up we currently have. That one two he played with Hamer in the second half was different class.

Oops, celebrating the end of lockdown too much! . As I was saying, farrago is a belter of a word. Grubby win but ultimately they only got in it from a very dubious penalty. How the hell did we end up with Hamer, way out of our league.

Hamer is the best player we have had since we left the Premier League.

Was having this conversation with my uncle - I only can think of Marlon King who was anywhere near Hamer. Possibly Scott Dann

Hmm, is the stupidity in the comment, or the inability to grasp its content? Obviously if it was easy to score then everyone would do it from the first minute until the last. However, it’s not easy to score goals. Doesn’t make them any less important though. Surprised this is news to anyone.

I've been sure he'll get properly Championship level with a decent run of games. Looks like that sort of player to me. That said, today was neither here nor there. I still think it'll come good but it can be hard to see exactly what he has in his locker.

Dabo, Maddison, Wise, Kelly and Dann come to mind. Hamer is a fine player and will be a great asset but I am not sure he is the best player as yet.

There’s a new best player since the Premier League every few weeks. Recency bias is alive

You probably doubted their ability at first too

But for sure, he is not the best player since the Premier League at all.

Biamou also probably isn't Championship quality but his effort is easier to spot and harder to question. Baka seems like he could use a spell in League 1 to get back up to speed

They should be more annoyed at themselves for not doing more in the first half hour.
