The Sheffield United v Bristol City Match Day Thread 21

[Luxo Jr.]

All 3 of our recognised CBs won us that game. Baker and Wright both produced incredible tackles to stop clear chances, and Flint... well...

Ha ha . Never seen this one coming. Massive result. Rode our luck but stuck in. 

Safe by xmas 

Calm down, calm down

[BRISTOL86]

THIS TEAM 

[One Team]

Didn't play well but rode our luck. 

This is what promotion winning sides do - grind out tough wins away from home.

Make no mistake, this is a City team of the like we haven't seen for 9 years, arguably even better.

Genuine promotion contenders now.

Harsh on the woodwork not getting motm

Clear red for Fleck. All day long. Hope Smith is OK.

Two footed and off the ground.

Whilst we were bemoaning we were lucky first half TS saying  it was a perfect away performance, and overall we deserve it .

[Jerseybean]

Well played both teams and the ref who allowed the game to flow and could easily have stopped it in the lead-up to both of our goals.

We'll be without Bobby for the next game. 5 yellows.

If Smith’s out as well, the squad will be a bit thin. 

[Lrrr]

40 points on the board, safety almost guaranteed

Lee prepares for his post-match interview.........

[BanburyRed]

That wonder save by Frankie in first half proved pivotal.....

Simply unbelievable

There's a shock dig at Flint 

So predictable ER

talk about a personal agenda

 

 

Hi Bob. Thought we were past this. Flint has been brilliant in the past run of 15 games. Superb. Won us another game this evening with not only a brilliant finish, but a stupendously brave block earlier in the half with his head. No problems with admitting it. Are you ignoring my part of the post where I also pick out Baker? Talk about a personal agenda against me.

Many don't like you on here, I'm not one of those. I like debates. I like that you (sometimes) have intelligent discussions. So I pose you a question, originally in my post which you quoted, I hope you can answer without crying like a 13 year old child. Why was Aden Flint 10 yards behind our nearest defender? Is that a harsh critique of the situation? I ask you watch the goal back before replying. It's not unfair at all. I dug out his partner too, for what was an even bigger mistake. Sure you'll understand when you look back at it that they both made monumental errors.

[Major Isewater]

And now you're gonna believe us ...

Great game, really enjoyed that. Good old fashioned smash 'n' grab.

Will probably be my highlight of the weekend. Out televised game at Norwich tomorrow has dog sh*t written all over it. No idea why Sky picked it.

Enjoy the win.

What does that matter...win ugly it’s a trait of every successful team...we rode our luck we defended manfully and we took our chances

There were some truly great last ditch tackles and saves, but yea, they also had to many real chances not to say we rode our luck big time. For whatever reason, did not quite click for us tonight.

Leko? Some player...if he only had a brain.

We were shocking. If anything it made me more apprehensive.

Winning ugly. All the successful teams do it at some stage.

Anyone need any salt? I expect to find quite a lot on their forum after that...

Day light robbery and I don't even careeeee

Exactly mate...I do wonder if some people on here really understand football

[Brizzol]

Can't believe we got the 3 points to be honest. It's a shame it cost us Korey Smith, in the long run it may cost us more.

[bristolcitysweden]

Well done City! Not at our best but three great points. COYR! 

[Murraysrightplum]

Think we struggled to control possession but a classic smash and grab away performance. Flint, Paterson and Bryan all excellent. Ditto FF

[Major Isewater]

The weekend starts here .

[SoliCyder]

This is for real

[Red Exile]

What a great result! And sitting here in the warm I have all the more admiration for those who made the journey! 

Impressively gritty team performance. 

[Alex_BCFC]

Daylight robbery that. But enjoyable in the end...

[Ivorguy]

Fantastic fighting performance by whole team
