  1. Disappointing he is helping their academy system and not ours but never mind, still a legend as a player here.
  2. He's been good for the last few weeks
  3. Regardless of the result now that's fantastic for Sam Bell that
  4. I'm sorry I haven't read everything on this thread, but have some of our fans genuinely complained to the club?
  5. I still think the Atyeo should be divided half away and half home, get rid of those stupid black sheets that go from halfway up the Atyeo to the goal as well, looks tinpot. We must be one of the only clubs in the Country who are really concerned about two sets of fans being in close proximity. Spurs vs Arsenal yesterday was divided by stewards.
  6. The worrying thing for me about Cardiff was in the first month of the season how much they raved about O'Dowda. An average player here, has gone to them and they've raved about him. Their standards have dropped massively.
  7. Some fans would love us to be like Cardiff. Have 5 bad results and just sack the manager every time. If it's not this season, then next season they'll go down I think, just really badly run. The managerial appointments of Morison and Hudson have screamed 'We're running out of money for new managers'. Warnock may go back on a low amount of wages, and keep them up but they'll still have the same short term issue
  8. The Boca Juniors of Bristol did well yesterday
  9. I have never in my time supporting City been appalled that we won a game. Huddersfield had something like 26 shots on goal to our 2 which we scored from. We got hammered, but won - so all was ok ? Typical football fans.
  10. Sums up my whole thoughts about the time under Holden basically. Some saying lately the football being played is the worst in 30 years have short memories. My god we were absolutely horrendous for those last 15 matches under Holden. By far the worst team in the league in those 15 games. I haven't seen us play much worse than that spell
  11. Absolutely dire wasn't it? Couldn't string 2 passes together, no shots on target happened quite often come the end
  12. iirc City and Reading had both won their first 4 games and after 6/7 games we were 2nd. We then went on a bit of a slide. Thank god we won those first 4 league games that season. We'd have gone down.
  13. It was lucky. We were scraping results and Bentley was on top form (especially Forest away). We were only heading one way. Joe Williams injury as an example - Holden brought him back from Injury in a game vs Cardiff in which we lost 2-0. He then decided to play him again 3 days later in the FA Cup when Williams picked up another injury. It was an absolutely ridiculous decision.
  14. I do rate Tanner's aggression and tenacity. Not brilliant going forward and on the ball but that's ok as long as he can defend ok. He's like an old fashioned Right back
  15. 2015

    Sykes at RW

    He did ok. Really was getting frustrated by his crosses though, continuously getting blocked when in acres of space. Can't fault his work ethic at all though and the 2 goals!
  16. I don't think we were 2nd at Christmas though? Nice bloke and I wish him all the best at Charlton.
  17. Effort was never in question here, just a lack of a cutting edge and we still have a bit of a soft underbelly. Shambles when he came in - absolutely. We could barely get out of our own penalty area in the few games before NP took over. Players just winding down their contracts here and not giving a ****. Poor old Holden didn't have the strength or the experience to deal with them. We've needed a Pearson at this club to sort it out for a long time.
  18. 3 unacceprable performances this season - Birmingham A, Reading A, Lincoln H. We are not that far away from getting consistency, performances haven't been as bad as been made out lately it's just coming without reward and individual errors costing us. NP has his hands tied in the transfer market unfortunately and I can't think of another Manager who would come in right now and change things. Said this all along by the way. Glad to feel somewhat smug about our 4-2 win today and a great performance. Think Nige deserves some praise after some of the over the top social media abuse he has received recently.
  19. As soon as the defender let the ball bounce he was in trouble and was off balance. Not a foul imo
  20. To me and i'm sorry to say it, it's not 'Bristol City'. Projecting some kind of atmosphere back to the place would help rejuvenate this, even if things did get aggressive then so be it. The place has been dead for a long time and has been attracting way too many day trippers
  21. Between 2007 and 2013 when the EE was used to be partizan I can't remember a single time when it got out of hand and lead to aggression? Lots of banter between two sets of fans and a decent atmosphere which did in turn help the team on the pitch especially during the GJ years. I think you're thinking of the most extreme case and worst case scenario. This club has been an absolute dead atmosphere since the ground was redeveloped, tbh I preferred how it used to be
  22. As SC once said 'When our home fans have an atmosphere like that (Swindon home game 14/15) teams can't win here'. That said game against Swindon was on of the most hostile and best atmosphere's AG has had probably since it became an all seater stadium - and we only had 3 stands that day.
  23. I had a Season ticket in EE in 09/10 and I can tell you although the football wasn't great the atmosphere was 10 times better than any home atmosphere at today's home games.
