    I absolutely disagree. Purely objective and realistic.

    Roberts is a big problem for me, must be dropped as offering very little, also feel Rigg needs rested just to recharge the batteries

    I don't think they carved us open time and time again - anything but tbh. Poor decisions in the final third cost us, Rigg definitely needs a rest for a game or 2, Roberts needs a stint on the bench for me. In this next week, RLB needs to press into the players he doesn't think he can trust how to play the way he wants otherwise they're just gonna sit on the bench for no reason

    Jobe is the one one with starting in CM. The other 2 need a rest. The depth is an issue.

    You're a good poster in my opinion. Even I got bit annoyed at prehab repeating same thing tonight (even if I agree with it) but emotions are high during the match. What I won't do is target him or anyone for having an opinion on the football or having a dig over it.
    Anyway. We've had some close ones go our way early season, last 5/6 have shown we are not quite there yet, but if we get a couple in or Samed gets fit and stays fit we can do top 6, maybe more. Don't think last 5/6 have been bad luck though. We've not looked like scoring for the most part. That's the reality in my humble opinion.

    The problem with Roberts is that we knew we needed to have a back up for him and we decided that back up should be Ian Poveda ffs. Might as well have me out there.

    Issue with Roberts is he doesn't have any real competition at the moment

    Ok so half and half and they made our keeper busier. So they sneaked a win. Thanks for clarifying.

    My point is, we have spoken in here for months. Same issues coming up. Needs to be better otherwise I see play offs being a stretch.

    I think that's debatable if everyone promises to play nice :cheesy:

    I'm not upset by that performance and I think the final result could have gone either way but we probably were the better team.

    Shame about the pen miss.

    Going to go missing in the result but thought Jobe was outstanding. Was doing 3 jobs at once.

    I've said it for a while, just don't think he is a goal threat and his movement is shocking

    He's got excellent close control but that really is it - he's def worked harder this season but he's really off the boil now

    sorry but you appear to have big downer on the club at the moment it does come across as having a pop at any opportunity

    Fair points, yet that's the second time you have had a dig at me, yet not commented on others that have said the same about prehab.

    I don't see you jumping on them when they post every week, yet here you are jumping on my post tonight.

    Maybe I do react maybe that's what I don't bother posting much these days.

    Will you be jumping on Marcus's post like you did mine?

    Nope, you said we didn't test the keeper at all.

    And then called me thick.

    But carry on.
