    No more excuses

    No point in coming out with the same excuses game after game Mr Robins. If you don't get some pace and creativity in central midfield we are going nowhere. I just cannot fathom why we didn't get a replacement in for Williams as soon as he was crocked. It's obvious the summer recruitment did not move us forward in the way that was promised.


    We should get three points on Saturday against a Blackpool team that is in disarray to put us into mid-table. We will struggle to maintain that position given the lack of quality in important areas although I'm praying the problems will be addressed through the loan market before long.

    what i have seen we are playing no better than last season.Strikers that can not hit the target,we could have had a hat full of goals by now.The defence is still not solid enough and needs work.See what happens on Saturday.

    re: No more excuses

    I'm not about to endorse the "Robins out" brigade, we have sacked more than our fair share of managers since Adkins left.

    However I'm not impressed with excuses, nothing is ever achieved by denying there is a problem, when it is obvious that there is.

    He is going to have to make a decision, all managers, not just in football, are expected to make decisions. Robins has set his stall out, he wants us to play with a 5 - 3 - 2 formation, everybody has tried and it doesn't work. Now is the time for him to go back to basics, a flat back four, and take it from there with any tweaking that he might see as necessary.

    We have the players, even if we have to start with McSheffry on the left wing while he looks for a a younger fitter LW, Hakeeb on the right, getting his chance as a first choice player. All the other positions are more than adequately covered, so why not?

    Ultimately the decision is his to make, let's hope he makes it soon, and get's it right!!
