Match Day Thread Shrewsbury v Charlton

Absolute laughing stock. How can you lose 4-3 to Shrewsbury. We seem to be sinking like a stone. To all those people that said we couldn't get relegated, are you now so sure. Six points off the relegation spot and can't win a raffle let alone a game of football.

 

Just resign Robinson, you prick.

 

What happened to Slade's solid (albeit mine-numbingly boring) defence? Was Pearce that crucial to our defence? How have Bauer and Texeira fallen so far?

We could actually go down at this rate, at least i'll have more away grounds to visit...

 

You need a manager with a bit of backbone like our Sir Neil - unbeaten in 16 and only conceded 1 goal in 13 games (including 3 Premiership teams).
We now find ourselves only 6 points off 2nd - remarkable when you think we were 23 points behind Scunthorpe and Bolton

 

I think Robinson has just burnt his boats with this interview.

Very strange post match interview from Robinson basically accusing the players of not playing for the shirt and "ducking the bullets for too long"

"It can't just be about the 7 managers"

I can't really see any way back for Robinson after this - now he has slated the dressing room in public, are these same players really going to bust a gut for him for the rest of the season to stay up ? I can't see it.

 

He's broken the golden rule, don't publicly slate your players. Not for the first time. Saying a few weeks ago that he had to wait until the summer to sort it out and bring in 7 or 8 players was another boob. Anyway the players at Charlton know that whoever the manager is he gets sacked, so basically KR is finished now. I just hope that when he goes he doesn't sign a confidentiality agreement.

 

Roland probably add that in as part of getting their payout. What a ****ing travesty, score a hat trick and still lose the game.

I didn't find out till I woke up, thankfully I was out living, enjoying myself.

I think I'm going to quit football guys (and girls).

 

It was the bit where he said that he saw something last night (prior to the game) that he had never seen in football before?...... love to know what?

 

Tony W smoking a 12 skinner in the changing room.

 

or TWWWW having a wee nip prior to game

 

A few Tweets flying around saying that Robinson accused our players of being too interested in "designer bags" and "socialising with fans from other teams"

 

Utterly gobsmacked this morning. That was a wretched result last night, but fairly tame by our shocking standards of late. But then I caught the post match interview with Karl. He's lucky we are a rubbish league 1 outfit, 'cos in the Prem, the press would have smelt blood in a weird interview like that and gone after him to out the problems. To be honest, I've lost it with this guy, and like Slade, I was determined to try and stick by him. But the transfer window rubbish he spouted, going on about the great squad he has, and not needing more players, and now in public, he throws them to the wolves? I do't see where he gets anyone back on board after that. This from the man who played JJ at left back last night. We really are deep in it now. The squad is broken, according to the manager, and when he was asked what he could do about it, the answer was 'nothing'.
We have a skinny six point gap over the relegation spots. Katrien is about to make history, and lead us to our lowest placing ever. The only drawback with sacking our current dead man walking, is that the usual culprits, especially the mega.experienced CEO, will decide, along with the Douche, who comes in next, and we all know how good they are at putting the right people in place.

 

Lots of damage limitation on Robinson's part; get your excuse in early.

The fact is he's the manager/coach and he's not managing/coaching. No matter how the bad/gutless the players are, a good manger would do a job on them. We always mention Neil Warnock. Steve Evans has lost 5 of 21 games for Mansfield and has a 52% win rate. Bad tactics, bad discipline, bad and changing team selections, bad press are all in one persons control. I certainly wouldn't respect Robinson if I was a player.

None of us wanted him but we all wanted it to work. It hasn't and in a small way I'm actually glad; he's an awful football person and now a dead man walking. Get him out before it's too late.

 

Oh, and the thing he saw prematch. Sue Perks came round the dressing room offering her Balti Pie and mash potato as she wanted something a bit more vol au vent style.

 

MMMmmmm, how are we lad's ? I am still here, around..

 

No further comment is necessary.

 

Awww. I was just going to write something else.

 

Hoping a few players head to your neck of the woods, and away from SE7

 

Eh really ?

Via man city to Melb City haha
