Offside call:

Definitely looks tighter than I first thought.

And the commentators are even handed with their remarks. Pleasing to hear them also praise the number of visiting supporters

They're pretty slick, very professional.

It's a good game, both teams going at it. A good watch so far. 

We're playing well. 

We really should be putting Knight-Lebel on.

Odds on a Sammy Szmodics hat-trick tonight?  I hope not as the chances of us scoring four are minuscule.

McCrorie on for Mehmeti, surprising 

Bizarre one. thought with the wind we might hope to get him more on the ball this half.

Anyone care to suggest that Max isn’t good enough today???

Single handedly keeping us in this

You are completely wrong! He's using both hands! 

2nd game I've been able to get too since moving back to the UK. Last one was Southampton so for a similar performance and result. 

Excited for this one! First game I have been able to go to live this season! About to go get a cider or two and head to the Gate!! It's so good to be back in Bristol! COYR!

Clues in the name.. are we doing any? And how do we book if there are?

My son has never been to the gate and ideally like to take him before breaking his heart gently, as aim to get us both season tickets next season.

 

Where are you going to get tickets? Which Stand? I've just moved back to Bristol after 8 years in California and aiming to get a season ticket trying to decide where.

Any streaming links? Thanks in advance! 

Yes this would be grat if someone has one.

Ok sounds like I didn't miss alot first half! I able to watch the second so hopefully thibgs pick up! 

How many fouls this half by Watford? No yellows either

Brilliant stuff. Conway was unlucky - incredible save by Harmer with his foot, great follow up be Twine. 

Twiiiinnneee! 

Doesn't start on ESPN + for another minute. I would imagine that's when a lot of streams will start.

We have one that runs down the side of the house.  I went and sat in it for the West Ham game and still couldn't get a decent coverage.

You should have gone to the one on the other side of the house. You obviously went on the stream to the left of your house and for the stream to work you need the right one. 

This means I'll need a stream

I get the modern style for ball carriers but the best ones don't get their team 40 or 50 metres up the pitch then surrender the ball cheaply.

And yes, I do expect end product from our wingers, certlainly from a player with MEH-meti's technical skills.

Otherwise you might as well just play anybody out wide.

Sykes delivers more with less. MEH-meti needs to step it up. It's obvious it's all in his head. Whether the penny will ever drop is anyone's guess. And I'm not sure how long we can wait if we're serious about making proper progress.

I think he has stepped it up in a big way. His tactical play has massively improved, from token runs back and a few hearty challenges to being disciplined and tracking. He has come on a long way in a really short space of time. + Look at the stats @Ian M gave, most of what he is doing is actually starting to come off in some way. Room to keep improving? Absolutely, but for me he is showing that he can improve and is doing so.

Tbf, there are over 1k comments under last night’s BBC match report and although there are certainly a good number along the lines you say above, I was struck by how many West Ham fans took defeat graciously, said it should be a man’s game, that City played better and fully deserved the win, and wished us all best in the next round.

Agreed, their forum is the same. I few ridiculous comments but plenty of them gave us credit and a lot of praise for our physical style. Not actually that many complaints, and even some of those complaining about the ref concede we deserved to win anyway. 

Agree on Annis, lost the ball a few times, but only when taking his man on and that's going to happen! we want him attacking his man it's the main strength he arrived with, and sometimes that's not going to come off (and remember he was playing against a prem side today).

What has impressed is that in the relatively short run of games he has been starting he has really developed his defensive discipline and now is covering really well and tracking. That's something he and LM should take credit for.

Without trawling back through 49 (!?!?) pages - did we find out if we have an option or not? 

You don't have to trawl back it's in the title of the thread! No option.

TGH might be in a bit of retrospective bother for that incident with Cresswell if the ref says he hasn't seen it.

Got a yellow card for it so all good. 

Didn't want to post earlier incase I jinxed us, but I f#$king love how well we defend corners. Something that NP brought in and thankfully wasn't lost in the switch to LM. Ward Prowse arguably one of the best there is from set pieces and thought we dealt with them brilliantly. 

Conway has been excellent today.
