Who Replied?
If Jake had scored on Saturday this board would have been full of people berating McGhee for not starting him sooner. It just seems that whatever MM does with regard to Robinson is wrong in many people's eyes.
I'm quite sure that if he plays Jake and CKR up front together and we lose (or Jake doesn't score) then we'll be reading that it was either because CKR was too greedy or he didn't have a bigger player alongside him to provide for him.
The only issue I have with MM over this is that he seems to have bowed to fan pressure to start him - and has not considered what was better for the team.

MM is still experimenting with his formation. I don't know why so many people are expecting instant results. Why can't people get some perspective. Whilst teams like Reading can spend a million on one player we couldn't spend that on our entire squad.
MM is one of the most experienced managers anywhere, especially at this level. Why not wait for a bit longer before playing armchair manager ?

I don't think MM takes the slightest bit of notice of fans opionns when it comes to team selections.
Jake scored a hat trick at Hastings, a superb goal at Worthing and got three assists.
That would be enough to warrant any player getting a start in the first team.

I am reminded of 1945 or 46 I think it wwas, immediately after the war. A young guy by the name of Sim or Sims scored five goals in a Reserves game at the Goldstone.
He was the talk of the town for a few days, and then nothing more was heard of him.
Robinson is a young lad, and must be brought along in a nurturing manner, not thrown into the fray with higher expectations than the young man can possibly deliver,
