Rubin Colwill

Back to his inconsistent self last night I think we need a real leader and playmaker in there.
Same at CH and a Lb and winger
I would move on Wintle, Willock and Daland. I have also heard Robertson wants to leave

Robertson is not going and hasn't asked to leave.

Has he ever not been inconsistent?

Terrible choice as vice captain.
I know it’s early days and things can change but can only judge on what I’ve seen so far. And these little decisions make doubt the boss. I think this is where his inexperience is showing. Hopefully he’s a quick learner.

I don’t know if I watch a different game. I’m will admit we were far from good. However, it’s a team sport and out of every player he was non stop running and trying to make things happen. Unfortunately we could not deliver in the final third. But there were plenty of chances which he played perfect pin point weighted passes to willock and tanner. However these winger could not make for love nor money.
I genuinely feel he scapegoated most of the time. I look back at Joe ralls career and during it he was always made out he was not good enough and had his fair share of shit off the fans. But when you look at ralls is career he gave everything for that shirt and was a solid player.
Everyone going to have their opinions. But I genuinely think rubin has been a great player for us and hope that he will shine even more so this year and think he will as BBM seems to be that manager than could unlock more to his game.

Rubin on song is unplayable, but those days are few and far between...we had a captain and vice captain who I didn't see geeing up the team. They were too quiet we have no leaders

Good point, I didn't see Chambers or Colwill giving any instructions Thursday. Willock should never have started and needs to be released. My 13 year old daughter puts a decent cross in 8/10. Last year was the same delivery was shocking.

They get a free pass because they local. They may be average league 1 at best they should be at best back up squad player for us.

Didnt take long for some of you clowns to attack Rubin :laughing6:

I thought he was one of the better performers on Thursday.

It was a tough night with at least 7 worse players.

Keep calling him out, I'm right behind him. This is his season, mark my words.

He wasn't even close to being the worst on Thursday.

I agree.

I'm harsher on Rubin than most but he just didn't get the chance to do what he can do.

Sure, he could have released the ball a bit quicker a couple of times but there were worse players than him.

That’s been said many times before. He’s got a better chance now as we are in league 1. Let’s see if he takes yet another chance.
