    Robinson

    Has to rate as one of the most shockingly bad Management decisions ever, playing Robinson. He was a total liability when he last played and Rowett decides to put him in against the highest scorers in the division. He was directly responsible for two of the goals. Rowett has done a great job but I am very concerned that he seems very reluctant to shake the team up every now and then. Strikers sitting continuously on the bench and never used. Rowett is the only one who rates Dyer as 97% of fans voted him the player they most wanted to leave the club in a recent Birmingham Mail survey.

    He is an absolute disgrace. I cannot believe he still gets picked, and, even more unbelievably we want to give him yet another contract. Surely he did more than enough today to scupper any more thought of that. The best thing he did for us all day was get sent off, so he can't do any more damage in the near future

    re: Robinson

    I certainly got the impression listening to the game that fielding Robinson was a bad decision. However, Michael Johnson, Sam Putnam and Tatts were all skeptical that Robinson was to blame. Callum Wilson was a handful and they didn't think Morrison (or any center backs for that matter) could have done any better. It was a soft goal to let in when Blues were 2-0 up and, as always, goals have a habit of changing games. Nevertheless, scoring 2 great goals against Bournemouth away from home suggests the problems we have are not going forward...

    re: Robinson

    Have to agree,was quite amased when I saw his on the team list,especially playing against Bournemouth who certainly know how to find the net.

    Funny old world our previous Manager was moaned at by many for some of his weird selections and Rowett despite his positive imput since taking over appears to have a few odd moves every so often that appear to most to just not make sence,my the way what has happened to the new loan forward Fabbrini their must be a reason but with just a handful of games left why bother to do the loan if you are just going to bench them or not play them at all.

    Broke his nose in training and may need an operation so he may not play for us at all. Rowett was doing so well, as were the team until he decided not to play Donaldson in the cup against West Brom. Does make some weird decisions at times.

    PS Of the ten players out of contract at the end of the season Robinson is the only one that is prepared to re-sign at the moment. Way past his sell by date already, so no wonder he is prepared to sign up.

    re: Robinson

    If you don't mind my input, I am glad he isn't playing Saturday, not because he is a good player but because the risk of any of our forwards being crippled has now been reduced. He put SEB out of football with his assault in the last time we played at St Andrews which contributed massively to our relegation (conversely that has turned out to be a blessing).Looking forward to Saturday, just hope it isn't 0-0 again !
