  • If Robinson gets us promoted with this squad it will be nothing short of a miracle.

    Our defence is shocking as are our options up front.

    Do you think ? I think a good manager would have taken us up with this squad, notwithstanding the injuries
    Tend to agree with that, the players he has had both when injury hit and all fit on paper is one of the best in the league - and arguably with injuries his match day squad is still up there even with injuries!

    I think 3rd/4th without the injuries at least. The signings Wigan have made in January are ridiculous.

    But it's all moot because of the number of injuries we've had, but spread out over the season (like Reeves and Marshall and then Fosu), and then having so many players missing in December when there are so many games played.
  • He has to be fair been extraordinarily unlucky with injuries to key players. I for one want Robbo given a chance once RD departs.

    Is it luck or a poor training regimine?

    Also, those thinking the critisicm of him is just a knee jerk reaction to our last defeat, it's not, what about all the other defeats, all the other occasions he's refused to deviate from 'his tactics' and his inability to see beyond his own ego.

    He doesn't learn and never will. Give him until the end of the season, as I don't think anyone else could do much better with his unbalanced squad, if we don't go up, get rid ASAP.
    I think you are using your dislike of Robinson to gloss over the injuries sustained to key players and even twisting that to fit your agenda by suggesting the injuries are his fault.

    Well the 3 games in 3 days in pre-season was his idea. I'm yet to see Guardiola or Pochettino adopting that into their pre-season programmes, probably because it's a stupid idea. He also made a load of comments about how hard he was going to work on their fitness over the summer, the amount of injuries we've been sustaining suggests he worked them too hard.

    No it doesn’t. It’s you suggesting that.

    So you think it's just bad luck? That happens to follow KR from, club to club?

    Ok. Give me evidence that KR has more injury problems historically than other managers. You won’t because you can’t.

  • Leeds have a load of injuries, as do Palace right now, like we did back in December. Those are just two examples off the top of my head I can think of. It’s simply not correct to say the reason for our injury record this season is because of Robinson.
  • Far too many muscle related injuries. Hamstrings, calf strains, quads, thighs. All preventable
  • Excellent article in VOTV by Matt Wright about the injury issues

    Classic. You’re the one saying the injury problems are abnormal and aportioning blame and you want me to prove it’s not. Lol

    I was merely stooping to your level of childishness. I very much doubt, even in this day and age of analysing everything down to the finest detail, that anyone keeps records of each manager's average injuries per player per season. So obviously I can't prove it. It was an opinion, no more and no less valid than yours. Or are you saying that an opinion has no value whatsoever unless it's backed up by comprehensive statistical evidence?

    Give me evidence that the universe was not created by an all - powerful transcendental intelligent shrimp.

    You guys are deluded. To get out of this league you need goal scorers. Care to list them?
  • Barnsley Uber for Robinson.

  • Perhaps we could practice defending in the week as opposed to trying Olympic sprinting! Just an idea as much as I’m fond of the odd gimmick!

    We defended very well for 93 minutes. We had one moment of madness from one player and we conceded.
  • Really like his enthusiasm , but his tactical awareness and poor use of substitutes is costing us . Not bothered if he goes to the Tykes .

    The truth is out there. If you’re going to say that our injuries are down to Robinson’s training methods and it was the same at MK then dig out the proof.

    I think it’s called put up or shut up.

    Sorry to interfere in your discussion but there was an MK Don's fan who posted on here recently who implied KR's training methods did indeed cause all sorts of injury problems at MK.

    No. I don't even care that much. I just don't think it is reasonable to expect everyone who disagrees with you to provide evidence. Not you particularly BTW.
