I agree with you, but the last 2 goals were from about 4 yards out

That's not a bad thing. Ready made Tammy replacement! 

[Lympsham Red]

We were definitely poor tonight, and while I don't like using this word, we were definitely lucky to get that goal at the end. Then again, Bobby's proving to be great and credit where credit is due. Nevertheless, once again we appear to score and then fall back, and the domination Brentford showed was unnacceptable. Team did well to prevent an equaliser before half-time but failed to make the neccesary improvements at the start of the second. That definitely needs work. Still, at least we've got something. Lee Johnson deserves a good fifteen to twenty games before any decisions regarding his tenure are made. Marathon not a sprint, etc. COYR.

Just , oooouuuf .

Got out of jail there.

Over reaction after 1 bad game 

I look at last season as well as this.

I always try not to overreact when we get beat, but this is genuinely embarrassing. 

As bad, if not worse than than the shambles at their place last season. 

 

So you've overreacted.

[Rossi the Robin]

Plenty of cracks still, need to sign more quality up top

Seems to be more belief and fight though

 

[Engvall's Splinter]

Robbed them by the sounds of it! 

Hopefully this is a wake up call for recruitment. We are still in need of quality and there is still time.

Which is what good strikers do. Much as Tammy did in fact.

[WolfOfWestStreet]

Complete theft. We've clearly got capable players so get a man in who can organise them and get the best out of them. Johnson out.

Most of Abraham's were from about that distance. It's a sign of a good striker to get in those positions.

[bristolcitysweden]

A fluke point. Step it up or

[Dan Robin]

PHEW! 

Great job,Bobby!

Poor performance,but a precious - and lucky - point too. That's ok (for now).

 

[Curr Avon]

This deserves an airing.

 

[AppyDAZE]

Tactical balls up tonight.

Crap game

Total shit

[EstoniaTallinnRed]

Good character from the boys, but as has been said, just papering over the cracks, Brentford should have been well ahead and would have been if not for some great saves from Frankie. LJ needs to learn how to change the game sooner and not later, as next time he may not be so lucky.

Pleased with the draw. 

Not pleased with a depressingly inept performance. 

What's so difficult to understand?

[Esmond Million's Bung]

LJ you got very lucky tonight, but it needs sorting Patterson and Brownhill are far to naive at this level, defensively and in dangerous positions both constantly turning into danger.

Apart from the fact we kept on to the end only Smith comes out of this game with any credit for the whole 90 minutes.

Diedhiou had a mare. if Engvall can play worse than that he must be shit.

Can't wait to hear LJ's version of events.

 

 

[cityexile]

Fielding maybe man of the match.

Great point, but no doubt in my mind which of those two teams will finish higher. We were battered.

Delighted with the point, but a long long way from looking like we can compete against the better teams.

Not really, I'd still say that was an absolute horrific performance that 9 times out of 10 would've had us being battered. 

We were very very lucky. 

[old_eastender]

Well, never saw that coming. How on earth have we have got away with a point from one of the most pathetic displays I have ever witnessed from a City side.

Honestly if Brentford had won 8-2 we could not have complained.

We've got our evening post back page headline sorted for tomorrow then 

[BCFC Grim]

Let's not kid ourselves, that was men against boys. A pathetic performance, and hardly one that feels me with any optimism for what's to come. As for the second goal, what the hell was Korey Smith doing? He looked absolutely ******, walked back and pretty much had his hands on his knees taking a breather when they shot. Pathetic!!We need some real bite in that midfield.

[AppyDAZE]

Cue... "bet youre sorry we equalized etc etc   PATHETIC

Just being realist, Johnson not up to it

[Northern Red]

So it seems that awful Frankie Fielding kept us in it?

sounds familiar

[Red Army 75]

Outplayed. Need a striker. Fair play to the players. Happy for the fans there must of been terrible watching. But a big point. Thank **** that's over . Until Saturday 

[bristolcitysweden]

Step it up or piss off

[1bristolcity]

Call yourself City? Makes me despair some of the comments on here, Brentford lost two on the trot, , of course they will gonna batter us, well done lads, I will take that, and so should we all.
