What does Downsy do when the feed is down, is he just presenting to nobody?

What's the point on spending massive bucks to get the best-in-class Downsey as presenter on Robins TV if we can't watch/view it?

Sykes played a lot of games centrally for his previous club, so think he would fit well there. Certainly had the attributes for it and is direct.

Sykes is a massive miss. Put him in the position Knight is occupying and drop Knight back into midfield and I think we create a lot more clear-cut chances.

Think we will create a lot more with Sykes in the position Knight is currently occupying.

If you saw the TV replay McCrorie did catch him. It was incredibly soft, but wouldn’t say it was a howler from the ref

Tanner as that wide centre back is a master stroke. It suits him down to the ground. Can just focus on keeping it simple when we have the ball and doing what he does best without it: defending.

Thought he was exceptional second half.

And people still find ways to moan!

I’m so glad we have found a position which best plays to his strength, got a lot of pelters from fans for not getting forward from full back. He is far better as a centre half.

Tanner is becoming a cult hero for me

Why do we love that corner lofted to the back defender it never works

Mehmeti and Knight not getting the same joy now

Hit the defender in the face with a trailing arm, harsh but he did do it.

I like this formation, suits Mehmeti/Twine that inside forward pocket

Clear foul on Dickie in the build up

Nah he was a centre half

Great play Mehmeti

Didn’t know Stuart Attwell was pre-programmed with a 2 second delay!

Naughty that from Pring

Mods delete this I have just seen the other thread!

Is this available to view anywhere for those of us not lucky enough to be at the gate?

I think we can just park the two up top idea full stop. Modern managers don’t often go for it and unless I am wrong, Manning has not really gone for it at his previous clubs. He is obviously wanting to implement a possession-based style of football, and I suspect he will spend the rest of the season seeing who will fit that mould and who won’t. A bit depressing for us to have ANOTHER transition season after spending years getting rid of deadwood to then change style of play again and through doing so create even more deadwood, but this is Bristol City after all. Hopefully next season is the first in a long time that we are not in transition and everyone is singing from the same hymn sheet.

Just what I was about to write, you need to factor in that he was not fit for a large part of the season, and has been playing in a team which does not create a lot of chances. If we take cup matches into account (against Prem opposition), he is just over 1 in 3.

I can’t see Twine not playing as a 10.
