Oh yeah Robinson's Super intense training sessions pre season and during the season were spot on. Didnt he say we would have one of the fittest teams in the league.
High cardiovascular fitness is all very well until the muscles start tearing up. I don't doubt we've got one of the fitter teams, but injury resilience is a different matter
Let's go 'round again Maybe we'll turn back the hands of time Let's go 'round again One more time
Robbo is one dimensional in his tactics and I don't buy the injury blame game. Every club has injuries. Like others have said our performances have been poor for months. We just got away with it better then.
The problem however is with the regime. Always has been. Always will be until it ends.
Interesting that one of the main criticisms of RD is his ridiculous sacking of managers and yet this thread is being started and commented on by alot of fans. Yes we have had a slump in form since having alot of injuries. But sacking another manager come on.....
There is not a team in this division that would be functioning well with 8 senior players out injured and a couple more carrying knocks. Our defence has an average age of about 20 today and our atracking options are ridiculously depleted
When all were fit we were very very good and he was the best thing since sliced bread. I think he deserves better than this from us as fans.
Who's fault is that? The same people you defended all summer.
Wont be long until that record is broken. Since November we have played 8 league games, won 1, drawn 2 & lost 5. With Wigan next I expect that to be 7 without a win - and then another local derby which I expect us to not to win.
I don't know how you some of you expect us to continue watching this rubbish without wanting a change. Keep the manager for all I care. I will still keep going & will continue to criticize & boo him until something changes.
I think Robinson should go whenever there's a take over or at the end of this season, whichever is sooner.
But I really wouldn't be too sure that allowing him spend in January is a wise move, lucky then that Roland won't allow it.
I think he's in full-on panic mode, because he knows he's been found out - he talks a good fight, tailored to whatever he thinks his audience wants to hear, but he's a chancer and a bluffer.
If Robinson is sacked whilst RD is in charge it will accelerate our demise. No manager better than KR will be appointed under Roland. We’ll get Fraye mark II at best.
Until Duchatelet sells up we are best treading water.
Exactly.
How people cannot realise that the owners are the problem and think we need a change of manager and that will change things is beyond me.
My only criticism of Robinson is him opening his trap in favour of the Belgians in the early days.
What a fucking shambles . That first half was fucking dogshit . I'm sorry but Robinson is fucking clueless . Lucky I'm in a good mood , but that was a fucking disgrace . The players don't give a fuck and the fans will turn against them if this continues . Funky off Roland , just sell you fuckwit .

You know what. We always play better when there's a protest.
That's a clue. Or a hint.
The missing 5000 season ticket holders were the core of the vocal protests.
Both will not return.
We haven't lost 5000 season ticket holders since last season when there were protests aplenty. A few hundred more like.
The reason we haven't had any this season was the desire to give Robinson a chance. But had we been in the relegation zone after eight or nine matches you can bet your bottom cliche that the protests would have sprung up again.
As they may yet. All it takes is the building up of a head of steam; and you can sense that build-up on these pages.
However, perhaps the belief that a sale is on the way might be releasing some of that pressure. I'm pretty sure if Duchatelet had recently stated that the club was not for sale, then we'd be protesting already.
well summed up Golfie. Going nowhere under Robinson, nowhere under Roland. Even if Robinson goes it will be the same old, same old until there is a change of ownership.
Piss off Roland.
Agree totally. it doesn't matter who comes in as manager until there is a change of ownership.
The knee jerk reaction when we lose is to say sack the Manager. Don't let us get distracted. The problem is Duchatelet and his toxic regime. Changing the Manager has not worked. Without a change of owner we will not get out of this division.
How ever long it is.... same point applies, just wasnt wasting time googling how long roland has been here when it makes fuck all difference to the point im making

Fair enough and I agree, although I'm not sure RD will even bother sacking Robinson. Hopefully that's a decision for a new owner to make soon.
The injuries have put a downer on us. We have quite a strong 11 if all the players are fit but a weak squad and I put that down to the lack of investment with the squad. When we give Harry Lennon a first appearance of the season and have only 6 substitutes it really does tell you something.
It would be madness to sack Karl given the circumstances and for those who are calling for him to be sacked you’re criticising the wrong man. Roland really needs to put his money where his mouth is and back Karl in the window. If Karl is sacked or we bring in nothing then all then the protests will return again.
Can't even put 7 subs out that's fucking how much of a laughing stock we are.sunday morning club and team.
Of course he could have picked seven subs. The only reason he didn’t was to make a point.
Agree with this and it is exactly the sort of thing I do, of course in a different context. The problem is you can only make a point if the other party is interested to begin with. I wholeheartedly agree he is making a point but I also think there is another motivation, that if he is sacked he can say to his next employer 'look at the circumstances I had to work under'.
Mind you I do not think there is anyway he is going to be sacked, if a sale is in the offing that cost will be left to the new owners.

ROLAND OUT!
We need to unite and push him out by all possible means
The problem however is with the regime. Always has been. Always will be until it ends.
However he has been in charge for 2 pig awful runs as well.

100% he knew the score with the buggers.
That would be a hoot.
