Doing the same thing over and over again while expecting a different result.
Relevent example; Owen Coyle starting Paul Robinson at left back each week and expecting him not to be directly responsible for conceding goals.
Now, I know some might consider the continued involvement of Kevin Davies just as egregious, but I addressed this in September most recently, and in April, plus a time or two before that. It is a different type of problem.
At least Kevin Davies has been a valuable member of our squad for many years, and he can probably still contribute in a part-time role. Robinson however, is crap, and has always been crap. As long as Robinson is starting we will be in trouble. Most clubs don't even bother attacking the right side of the Bolton defense.
The whole league can see it, why can't Owen Coyle?

Even the Guardian Football Weekly crew, not known for watching clubs outside of the bottom 4 very closely, noted that Paul Robinson has had terrible match after terrible match, yet is sill on the pitch every week.
