not putting a couple of U23s on the bench to cover for injuries is moronic, what's gobby gonna do in the 47th minute when a 3rd bloke gets clattered? Put Phillips up front or finish Solls's or JFC's season by letting them compound their existing injuries? What an absolute effing bellend. If roly's handed down some shithead order about appearance money then gobby should defy him and make the septic old berk try to sack him. Bury looking forward to their first win in ages. Their confidence will be brimming now it's so blatantly obvious that some pathetic panto has rolled into Gigg Lane to pretend to be Charlton. Our team wouldn't look out of place in big wigs, red noses and long shoes, I bet the doors and wheels are falling off the team coach as I write.
I'm mystified by the decision to go with that bench.
If Solly and Forster-Caskey are not fit, having them on a five man bench is petty and, quite possibly, damaging. Even if forced to select from the U23s, we need to have both a full and fit bench (while hoping to avoid throwing unready players into the fray).
Frankly, if this is Robinson's decision, he should go. It's the sort of petulance I'd expect from a 10 year old. He is, IMHO, today deliberately sacrificing our team's chances of a win on the altar of his own ego, leaving us with an inadequate matchday squad (so, in terms of player selection, not too far removed from the self-regarding idiocy of Duchatelet since 2014).
Steady, he can still only play 3 subs.
I agree, but a competent manager would seek to ensure as many positions as possible are covered, and would not put injured players on the bench.
It's childish point-scoring.
And what happens if we have a defender injured after 20 minutes?

Mascoll, Lapslie, Edwards, Blumberg should be eligible to serve on the bench. Why isn't Hanlan back from Colchester loan? Seriously we are a laughing stock of a club.

Holmes is still contracted to us isn't he ?? He could at least be on the bench or would we rather play Phillips if we have to play 3 subs. I don't care where "his head is" . I hope we lose.
Pundits on Soccer Saturday discussing Newcastle & Rafa's "annoyance" at not being able to bring any players in (or even being told of his budget) during the transfer window and how he may have to leave as it might affect his reputation.
Yes, a Premiership side that gets 40k supporters every week. My heart bleeds for them.

Solly and Forster-Caskey insisted on coming to the match as an act of solidarity apparently. [edit - sorry, old news]

Solly and Caskey - total respect
You've seen him play outfield in training?
A complete fucking joke.
The Belgians talk more shit than anything you see on.............
Have a look at the line up the BBC has put up on their match thread just now:

Then fail to utlise him when we DO need him!

I like Robbo making a point, but this isn’t the best way to maximise our chances of getting 3 points.
Basket case of a club!
