Garland-sweden Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 What a great performance. We won most everything in the air. Won the second balls, hard bodies, mostley calm with the ball. We could have scored another too. Flint, wow, shouting, screaming, fighting, won everything. What a charachter. We are a good football team. Thanks City.

"There was only one team likely to score and that was us". WTF? And after Lee had given Brighton such credit. Very disappointing. They decided they had won the game before it started, so he failed to do his job properly and I suspect he knew it. If you disrespect your opponent you deserve to come a cropper. And their 'chances' consisted mainly of harmless shots from outside the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credit where credit is due all i can say is that is one hell of a result, fair play. Did I see the Brighton fans clapping us off the pitch on sky? Fair play if so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

U think u will struggle next season Massively we can't afford to compete at this level, we've only done well this season because we had two seasons developing the players we had, I knew we'd do well this season next season is a different kettle of fish we're for a season of struggle in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if LJ comes sniffing around some of your better players during the summer and City finishes above you guys next season with LJ still in charge, you'll be a little miffed?

stephenkibby. Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 Well that was good as it gets. For a game that we had so little of the ball even in my most pessimistic mood they never looked like scoring. The whole team worked there asses off and the shape that was kept was fantastic. Great performance without the ball. Brownhill, some on here have doubted him in his will to tackle. I put a small report on here after the Granada pre season game. He won a 40/60 challenge that night put his foot in where it hurts, and looked a really tidy player. so really pleased for him to notch the winner. Against the team with the best home record in the division **** the result, that was some display. Johnson? I wanted him gone and I know some will never change there minds but surly most would give him the first 10/15 games next season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player came out and said that one of their players had told him they had everything set to parade the trophy including the order the players were going up to receive it. Everyone thought that to be a bit cocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spent millions, can't work with talented players just like his old man ( who did have success at a lower level and I wish him all the best). Leeds,Huddersfield and Brighton all have done extremely well this year when it wasn't expected. We've basically been shit. Johnson out !!!!

A huge well done to the Red Army for their amazing support this year despite the shit served up at times . This day was your day . Secondly well done to the City ' warriors who harried , hustled and ran all match . I love you all . Thirdly , Well done LJ and the coaching team. You little monkeys, you made us sweat .

WessexPest Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 When the dust settles, while I'm hugely thankful for having avoided the drop I can't help imagining an alternative universe where we kick on from our Oct 1 win over Forest and push for the playoffs. We've showed since mid-March (barring the Brentford and PNE fiascos) thatbwe can hold our own on this division. Struggling to fathom why we embarked on that truly wretched run. Not convinced LJ is the man but he's kept us up twice now against the odds so can't fault that. Let's just hope we don't struggle again next season - as Sunderland show, perennial strugglers eventually succumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A dodgy thing to say maybe, but I think maybe that run was down to just one of those weird things in football. Most people in football, away from the fans here seem to think that LJ has something going forward. Give him time and maybe we will end up being one of those cases that others point to. Stick with, be patient and it can pay dividends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year Reading finished on the same points as we did, and Huddersfield and Fulham below us. Agree we need to push on, but at least we can dream afresh.
