Does this mean we might have our eye on somebody? Can't see us allowing a striker to leave without a replacement coming in?
Title: Re: Theo to.............
Post by: GazLaz on March 26, 2015, 05:13:53 pm
No point sending him out without a replacement. Tyson isn't fully fit and we only have 3 strikers now.

What absolutely fantastic news. The bloke is a complete and utter embarrassment, if that's the last time we see him in the red and white then brilliant!

He's done very very very well to land a club in the same division. I'm half thinking about giving Scunny a call see if they need anyone else, clearly desperate.

His last club in the football league for me.

Brilliant news for DRFC, congratulations for all involved. And for those worried about letting him go with the amount of strikers we have. It was like playing with 10 men when he was on the pitch anyway. Rather have you up top Filo pal

Its a shame he never found his form again for us. He was a good player for derby, and their fans thought he would be very good in this League.
Title: Re: Theo to.............

Good player for Derby? I asked a season ticket holder when he signed and he said he was one of the worst players he's ever seen in a Derby shirt.

Quote
The 22-year-old striker has more than 4,500 "followers" on Twitter and it appears not all of them have been happy with his performances so far this season.

"I've been getting a bit of stick on Twitter lately about not scoring enough and saying I'm rubbish," said Robinson.

There you go. From the horses - sorry, carthorses' mouth. He was f**king w**k then. He's f**king w**k now. And he'll always be f**king w**k.

Well it's clearly not just one fan thinking that is it? The carthorse himself said he's getting tons of Derby fans telling him he's rubbish.

He's an embarrassment in the sense that he's stealing a living. I don't know about you, but if you have any pride in what you do you should be embarrassed that you collect over 50k a year and perform so horribly.

He didn't seem to be the same player after he picked up that injury last season. Up until then I thought we had a good 'un. He doesn't seem to fit in with what we are trying to do this season. I suspect he needs a target man to play off.

A shame, because I have met him and he's a genuinely nice guy. I suspect PD has already told him he won't be offered another contract and that is why he's been allowed to go to Scunny. It is probably a bit of an extended trial for him.

Main and Tyson can both play as a lone striker so we would probably revert to the standard 4-5-1 in case of emergency. I suspect Theo already knows he'll be released in the summer so this is the fairest option all round.

Only Clark Harris is two or three weeks into his loan, meaning we would have to wait until twenty eight days had expired if Rotherham recalled at the 28 day mark of Clarke Harris's loan, so it's not that simple is my old flower? ;)

Like someone else mentioned previously, it would seem that he has been told he won't get another contract, but we thought the same with Kyle Bennett that he wouldn't come back, he did and came back better for the loan.
Theo has not all of a sudden become a bad player, his starts have been hit and miss, he has never had the feeling that Dickov rates him that highly in my opinion going by the starts he has had.

When he first joined us he had a run of scoring in a few games, then the manager starting switching his position, playing him wide right in some games, when you look at an overall scoring record this isn't mentioned, just a blank next to his name.
Among our fans Cotterill was written off, he was criticised in our promotion season he set most of our goals up but he was rubbish, when we got in the championship, he wasn't rated good enough, i think he has proved conclusively that he is.

Theo just like any striker needs a run of games, good chances, rub of the green and most importantly the confidence of the manager.
Paul Dickov's job is to make tough decisions for the good of the team, he may be right, but for me Theo is a useful player to have in your squad
Maybe he will do better at Scunthorpe, every striker we have has had criticism over the season.
He is the same standard as the strikers we have, but may be Paul wants to improve on what he has, he is the manager.

True. But then Guy was a cheating Kitson with a heart like a pea.

Robinson's record and his first 4 months wit us show that he's a decent player and an honest hard-worker with a perfectly respectable scoring record.

He's been totally out of form for months which is a mystery, and the last couple of times I've seen him I've felt sorry for the lad because he looks to have lost it to the point that it's embarrassing for him. But none of that excuses the vitriol from some of the bell ends on here. I really don't understand what they get out of it, other than transferring their own inadequacies onto someone else.

He is still one of our players and should not be getting the unwarranted abuse he has been getting. One thing about Theo is that he is always willing and puts in a shift.

BST you are right that he has been dramatically out of form in recent months. You were claiming before Christmas I recall that he would end up with double figures this season. As I said at the time, he was never in a month of Sunday's going to get double figures. His confidence is absolutely shot and has been for long time. Until he sorts that then his career is heading downwards. Hope the spell in a fresh environment can help him build back up his confidence.

I didn't see the games but I thought he did a reasonable job as a lone striker when Tyson was injured and Main had no form or confidence. Thinking of Swindon away in particular. He also had the balls to take and score a pen.

Oh come on. Hes a striker whos job is to score goals. He should be commended on 'having the balls to take and score a pen'  :suicide:

I should have added after he made a complete Horlicks of the one at Fulham.

I'll be honest, I thought he was a good signing for us last season and I also found him to be a decent bloke. I don't think he's done nearly enough this season to be worth another contract though.

If he does find his form taking it for granted Scunny have some of our rivals to face,i don't know who they have left it could be a very good 'Tactical Loan'.
It might not be the end with us it could be let him go to a fresh place and get his confidence back, on being personal about players who knows he could be having family problems or anything, players are human beings.

As far as i am aware he has never caused a problem when not picked for the team, nothings ever come out so i take it he has been a good professional.
I still stand by it, i think he is a useful player to have, i hope he scores a few and comes back full of confidence.

But even when he does come on he dosent exactly bust a gut to close down or make runs in behind, he's terrible and thankfully not in out squad now.

You must be watching the wrong Theo, one thing you can't accuse Theo of is not busting a gut, his effort can't be put into question. His ball control is another thing

Theo just plods about looking like he's in the wrong job, dingles away I'll admit he ran his socks off that's the only game I've seen him do it in

I said that given his scoring rate before Xmas, if we played 2 strikers and if Robinson, Main and Tyson shared the starts between them, I expected all 3 to get double figures.

If you're going to quote what I said, please get it right and don't put words into my mouth.

The weakness is that you were predicting a haul this season (10-11 goals) by extrapolating from his career average and his likely appearances.

As I said when you raised this, it is facile to try and apply his career average to this season (even when his career average has been largely built on playing at a higher level) as his confidence has now completely gone, shot, disappeared, kaput.

The result being that he has appeared only intermittently as his performances have not proved worthy of appearing.

He will not, as I said at the time, score double figures this season for us.

I hope he can rebuild his confidence at Scunny.

Theo starts today. He usually starts well at his new clubs because he is very motivated. Remember Blackburn at home and Wigan away for us? Anytime or 1st scorer today might be a decent bet

Go back and read what I wrote.

I pointed out that ALL of our strikers from August to December were scoring at around their long term career averages. I said that in response to innumerable comments about all our strikers being shit and none of them being goalscorers.

Now, Robinson has been in dreadful form since then. He's been in the worst goal drought if his career. And he's been in and out if the team. If you predicted that all those things would happen, then well done. You're better than me. It doesn't in any way change the point that I was making back in December. 

If you go and check what I wrote instead of relying on what you want to believe I wrote, you'll save you and me a lot of pointless arguing.

What that he's got this season? 6 goals in 15 league starts?

Hands up all those who STILL think he wouldn't score 10 in a L1 season while ever he's got a hole in his arse?

Paul Dickov should be congratulated here. He spotted Theo's ability to knock out Peterboro and next up Bradford. Fighting on all fronts is the way forward, total football the Donny way  :scarf: :boxing: :scarf:
