Why all this sound & fury? We are a depleted mid-table team & have just lost 0-2 to the team at the top of our league. Quite likely West Brom will do the same to us soon. Understand where we are & what we realistically might accomplish this year & be grateful.

A propos nothing in particular, I understand that QPR's away strip as worn when they were tonked 7-1 by WBA on Saturday was designed by Katie Price.

I can't believe the moaning and complaining on this forum after a dogged strong performance away to a team who were totally on form and scoring goals in abundance. Our boys applied themselves physically and mentally and brought their poor spell to an end. Every team goes through a bad time at some point in the season (look at Cardiff and the two Sheffield sides recently). Cardiff have sorted themselves out of late and hopefully City did tonight. Expect the jitters from Wolves soon. Villa and Derby had their rough times earlier in the season. It's still all to play for.

This is Bristol City. This is what happens to us from time to time. Maybe the younger supporters and maybe some of the players are not used to it but supporters like me who've been around for 65 years are quite familiar with the phenomenon. Our team plays with passion and LJ says it's the spirit and passion that got us through some of the sticky moments we've had this year. However, when things begin to go wrong, the players tend to increase the passion level. Not always a good idea, especially when you are physically and mentally exhausted. We all need a break, especially the players. The team needs refreshing, maybe with new people coming in to help and old comrades returning to the fray with renewed spirit and passion. The transfer/loan window comes at a useful time as do three cup games where we are the underdogs and little is expected from us. This is not a doctrine of despair but rather one of renewal.

Quite right. We've come a hell of a long way this season. We dropped one point in injury time. This is what we've been dishing out all season, in particular, to Man Utd. If you dish it out you have to learn to take it too.

The luck was bound to change sometime. The sad part is that it's almost a repeat of what happened at Molyneux.

Changing the theme; Read yesterday in a national newspaper that Bristol Rovers FC are being investigated for paying some of their employees under the minimum wage rate. Not sure if players are included. Two other clubs were being looked at for the same reason. The one that stood out was Wolves and I think the other was Wycombe Wanderers.

What a silly thing to say. Always believe!

Rovers both Forest Green & Bristol totally irrelevant. Concentrate your rivalry on the grown-ups, Cardiff, Middlesbrough and Leeds>

We gained 3 points on both Leeds and Sheff Utd. Revenge for Leeds and just a hint that the Blades bubble might burst soon>

We truly have a squad now. The occasional injury or temporary loss of form doesn't phase us. Well done LJ and the guys who hold the purse strings. Onward and upward!

Ribena seems to be just what we need!

60% possession and playing with a one man advantage for the final 10 minutes and we lose 2-1. In the first half a more controlled approach would have given us at least a 2 goal lead. 16 shots on goal only 3 on target! We went at it like a bull at a gate. A first minute goal encouraged this approach and much good lead up play led to no reward. Birmingham showed how to win a result even when you are up against it. Harry calmed them down at HT and patiently they wore us down like a good boxer that gets up off the canvas and wins on points. We should learn a hard lesson and remember we are not playing Manor Farm or even Plymouth or Barnsley every week.

Are we going down? Flint he said "No, no, no, no"

Just watched the video. There is no way the manager can be blamed for the mix-up that brought about their 1st goal. Unless it was the over-energetic enthusiasm that caused two defenders to get in each others way! Lay-off LJ and lay off the team then maybe they will play as well at home as they seem to be playing away.
