“I don’t know how it was 4-1,” explained Robinson.
“Well, I do. Their forward players were better than ours. I thought we were the better team in the middle of the pitch. But how many times have I said this to you? We didn’t take our chances. We didn’t look ruthless enough. When we come across people we don’t get shots off or we don’t go down and get a foul.
“I don’t really recall Ben having to make many saves. I think it was almost five shots on target and four goals. We had way more shots – we didn’t hit the target enough but we had clear-cut chances today. I watch Marriott a lot, I think he’s a great striker. 27 goals he’s on now. Put that in our team and we’ll be in the top two. That’s the difference.
“We go away now and we dust ourselves off. If you play like that, and take your chances, you win.”
Not unless you play like that and convert at least 5 of your chances. Tit.22 -
We’ve got our Charlton back.8

Just left the game, at a pub now for the rugby. Too angry to even give my thoughts.
F off Robinson and take that useless sack or shit, Magennis, with you.

I agree.SDAddick said:
This x1000, especially because Pearce always looks like a liability to me. An incredibly stupid foul leading up to the first goal. Got turned inside out for the third (which was an absolute joke because Reeves was hacked down in the build up, I mean that was mental). And then doesn't close down the man for the fourth.Sage said:One thing on the playing side, we have conceded 6 goals in our last two games. Bauer has sat on the bench in both of them. Prior to that, he scored away at Doncaster and played in that one, Bradford at home and MK Dons away where we picked up 5 points and only conceded 3 goals.
What the fuck is he doing out of the side?!
Bauer has been our best defender this season, and Konsa second.
There will be a lot of tests upcoming for Robinson in the next few weeks and one of the bigggest will be does he drop his undropables: Magennis, Pearce, and Solly? And does he drop Jackson from the squad. The Skipper looked a liability today. He's not a defensive midfielder, he never has been, but the amount of space between him and the defensive line was ten yards at time, and 'Boro exploted that space.
Big changes needed Tuesday:
.......Amos
Konsa Bauer Sarr Page
.......JFC Dijksteel
Zyro Reeves Fosu
.......Ajose
Oh, and why weren't Page and/or Dijksteel on the bench?!?! Page must be fit enough for at least a cameo, and Dijksteel is the only natural defensive midfielder at the club who is fit.
The one bright side is Zyro came on and nearly changed the game singlehandedly. He looks a real player. Reminds me of Arek Milik.
However, I'd take out Reeves and put in Marshall, believe it or not.Amos
Konsa Bauer Sarr Page
Marshall Djiksteel Forster-Caskey Fosu
Ajose Zyro
Maynard-Brewer, Solly, Pearce, Aribo, Reeves, Kaikai, Magennis1 -
From what I could see from near the corner flag I thought they did ok.Leuth said:
Fosu? Aribo?!JamesSeed said:Robinson let down by his players. You can’t miss penalties and open goal headers.
The Posh showed us how it’s done. Five shots, four goals and one hit post.
Bad game: Solly, Magennis, JFC, Amos
Good game: Fosu, Aribo, Zyro
Why won’t our guys shoot though?1 -
England losing at rugby tends to cheer me up a tiny, tiny bit tbh4

So Robbo thinks we dominated midfield but they were better upfront than us.......well play another striker you stubborn Scouse pillock.1

Nor am I, but he's shown a hunger when he's come on this year, and he provides something different and right now we need something different.JamesSeed said:

But would have Zyro up top, not on the wing. Not sure about Ajose.
With that four my goal would be to get a lot of interchanging like we had at the start of the season (we miss Clarke), looking for intricate play between attackers. Ajose's ability to get in behind defenses might create more space for that.
Oh, changed Zyro to the ten role. My reason for playing him deeper is that I want him getting on the ball and running at teams, and making runs into the box from deep.0 -

The Karl Robinson excuses for losing guide.
First, blame your players:
'Their forward players were better than ours.'
Second, make stuff up:
'I thought we were the better team in the middle of the pitch.'
Third, blame your players again, especially if they're not cheats:
'We didn’t look ruthless enough. When we come across people we don’t get shots off or we don’t go down and get a foul.'
Finally, empty promises and clichés:
'We go away now and we dust ourselves off. If you play like that, and take your chances, you win.'
Bingo.8 -
Oh how is that? It looks intriguing.Exiled_Addick said:Watched ‘The Death of Stalin’ last night and picked up a useful quote for times like this.

Sod it, let's just talk about telly, far better than this shit.
I just started watching "The Looming Tower," the story about what was happening in the US I in the build up to 9/11. It's very compelling. It's a little heavy handed, and it's still early but it seems to have picked out its good guys and bad guys in a way that I think is far more black and white than real life. It's based on a book I could never bring myself to read (too frustrating), and maybe the book does that too. And the guy who plays Richard Clarke, Michael Stuhlbarg, looks ridiculous.
But I'm just nitpicking, it's definitely worth a watch.0 -
How on earth does he reckon we we're better in the middle!?! Jacko non existent and JFC was very poor.
People have been asking why there's so much disdain and hatred for KR, well that fucking statement after that performance is exactly why. C*nt.2 -
4-1 was actually quite harsh on us even if an overall defeat wasn't.0

Shit day compounded by Luton letting down my 7 team acca !
Kids are mascots next Saturday, oh well....2 -
Expected absolutely nothing today so I’m neither surprised nor particularly disappointed. I’m fed up in that resigned and apathetic sort of way when the failure is completely expected. Injuries to virtually all our crucial players and the loss of Holmes have undoubtedly played a significant part but this season is just petering out in yet another tepid and utterly predictable way. Such a shame after the optimism of August and September. It genuinely felt that we were on the turn but it’s yet another season of mediocrity and decline. Ho hum. At least the weather is getting better. It will be early bird renewal time soon. I’ll be saving my commitment until the takeover is done.
As for Robinson and his team of pretty midgets. Meh.2 -
What I don't understand if our forwards are to blame for the loss then what about the defence that conceded four fuckin goals. In fact do we actually ever manage a clean sheet.
The truth is the team/squad/coaches/owners are all a collective crock of complete shit.8 -
I hope your kids enjoy their moment.Elthamaddick said:Shit day compounded by Luton letting down my 7 team acca !

It's a lifetime of disappointment that follows that I worry about.
Seriously enjoy the day2 -

Anyone still think we're better off without Kashi?
Agree that Dijksteel should now be given a go in midfield.1 -
Woke up this morning feeling fineSpanish said:Woke up this morning feeling fine
Robinson played Kaikai and changed my mind.
Why can’t he see 4-5-1 ain’t no good?
I've got Charlton on my mind
Playing one striker is so very sad
Something tells me I'm into something bad9 -
And based on Zyro’s performance today.pboroaddick said:Thought we were on top for 1st 30 mins but failed to score. After that the difference was Posh know how to score goals and we are clueless in finding the net.
Zyko deserves a start next time based on Magennis performance today.0 -
When will this never ending nightmare be over - mediocrity has engulfed us since the day the Belgians took over. Robinson is not fit to lace Powell’s boots - what an absolute shambles.12

A rising Gillingham have got Waggy
Our lot are Baggy4 -
Shocking and inexcusable, though 4-1 flattered Posh. Zyro must start now. Aribo can't play for 90 mins and unless Page is injured he deserves a chance.
Am in no way defending Robinson, but if Mag scores then it's a very different game2 -
Can I just say that I wholeheartedly agree with Robinson's final assessment?LouisMend said:
He should just go away now, and keep going.2 -
Need to go on a run now! Pulled out the cooker this afternoon, and found some lard with experience of going on a run. Obviously showing more direction, motivation and ambition than a lump of lard that has no idea of what to do or where to go.
