    At fault - along with the joke of a 'keeper we have signed - for the goal apparently today

    Ñot only BFC think there is potential in Roberts ,a host of clubs were after signing him .
    Just because he's lost confidence doesn't mean we weren't justified in signing him surely.

    The loss of confidence also coincided with being dropped for no reason after we had recieved them bids. Been poor since his return to the team

    Agreed, showed a lot of promise in his early games. Very surprised to see him starting today though. Had a torrid time last week and replaced at half time. Think he's struggling at the moment and has been for a few weeks. The lad needs some time out of the side to regroup.

    In my opinion he was dropped because Nyatanga and Mawson are currently the better players. If I was playing two centre halves, it would be those two over Roberts every time at the moment for me.

    Very harsh.
    With the right guidance from the right manager and coaching staff, we have a very good defender at the club.
    Stay how we are, and he will sink into oblivion and end up back in the conference because this current set up is a load of *****.

    That could also be johnson's opinion aswell. Personally i thought he was playing well and deserved his place in the team. To then get dropped while playing well must have knocked his confidence and made him wonder what he had done wrong. In my opinion ofc

    Think this is a harsh assessment. Both him and Mawson could have closed down the striker for the opening goal last week, but his only other mistake was when he got caught on the ball that one time (which he recovered). He got booked for a shocking tackle, but that appeared to be out of frustration.

    Don't think you can say he's been struggling for a few weeks. Played really well away at Southend, and wasn't at fault for anything against Walsall.

    We've been watching different games them mate. I think he's been really, really struggling with opposition attackers giving him the runaround.

    ......and now Wiseman goes past Smith with ease to cross for Mcsheffrey to score unmarked.

    He was playing well at the start of the season, I just thought Mawson and Nyatanga were performing even better.

    *EDIT* Not when Nyatanga was at left back of course, but Nyatanga would get the nod from me at the moment because of his experience which both Mawson and Roberts lack.

    Taxi's for

    Roberts
    Townsend
    Smith
    Winnall

    Will there be a black cab for LJ at the end of this game.

    I'd agree with that. LJ dropping him off the back of good form when a championship club wanted him has turned into bad man management as his form since has suffered alot.
