  1. I don't agree. In the 1st half we went toe to toe with Stoke, it was a very scrappy game due to the style Stoke play, we did struggle to deal with that style in the 1st half but we certainly got stuck in.
  2. Honestly it really could have been that many, it's been a long time since I've seen a goal keeper performance like that. I've come out of the stadium feeling as if we have won because that second half we were Incredible. Absolutely battered them. Walsh put in a MOTM performance in the second half.
  3. Had it not been for Butland we could have scored 5 or 6. He has been the difference.
  4. My interest in UFC has been very limited in the past, last night I watched every fight and really enjoyed it, like a real version of wrestling. All the fights were really good but the main fight was extremely boring, watching Khabib just hold McGregor for 5 minutes at a time was ridiculously boring and it ruined the fight. McGregor could have done a lot better in avoiding getting into those holds imo. When there was actually some boxing you can't say McGregor got mauled. It was an effective tactic from Khabib for which McGregor had no comeback, Connor looked pretty helpless at times and kept looking at the ref in a way where he was crying for help. Khabib deserved the victory and he would have deserves all the plaudits however after what happened after his victory is very hollow and tainted. Now instead of everyone talking about his victory the talk is all about how McGregor is the victim and how well he handled the disgusting scenes and acted respectfully. Now people look upon Connor as the winner. I've heard a lot about how Khabib is a religious guy etc etc and how insulting his religion somehow makes his actions ok, I'm sorry but it simply doesn't, how is it ok to act like that and assault someone just because of something someone has said? Khabib is just a animal who victory wasn't enough for him, he couldn't control himself and that's why to me, he comes out of this as a loser. For him to then kick up a fuss about not being given the belt was laughable.
  5. As much as I dislike the guy, I'm not sure their relegation was his fault. The damage had been done before he became manager. We have a decent structure in place with Mark Ashton, Lee Johnson and the two assistants and if any were to leave it could all fall apart. It just works and worked with Trollope and Lawrence, when you change the dynamics you take the risk of things turning bad. It was a very poor decision of them to part with Lawrence imo. They had a structure in place and when times got a bit tough they didn't have the conviction to see it through like we did.
  6. Quite a reasonable post from a sag I have to admit. I think the problem you have is that you have been so far behind us for so many years, I don't want to sound big headed but your fans look across the river to us and are desperate to be up here with us and I think that's what makes them impatient. They fail to accept that with the current infrastructure etc that you have mid table in league one is realistically the best you can achieve. Trollope and Clarke both did well to maintain the level that your currently at, they both know your club inside out and I don't think there is a manager that could push you onto the next level without a clear plan and some serious investment from your owners. Sometimes your fans have to accept that managers like Clarke and Trollope are doing the best with what they have got. If you dispose of Clarke I'd be inclined to say your football league status may be at risk again.
  7. It's a bit sad that they are relying on 3 refurbished bars to provide them with money to bring them success in the future. Many non league football and rugby clubs have more than 3 bars...
  8. Sounds similar to when they hounded Paul Trollope out. He did a decent job of keeping them in mid table but that wasn't good enough for them so they got him out and then tumbled all the way down to non league.
  9. These commentators don't like Bristol do they?
  10. Us telling Bristol Rovers to mind the gap is quality! Suddenly I feel a little bit closer to the club. I'm guessing sagchat has gone into complete meltdown?
  11. Could easily be 6 nil up. Best performance for a long time.
  12. After controlling the game we just gift them a goal with two comical defensive errors.
  13. A couple of them were singing that god awful song in the concourse and at 1st I wanted to say something but then realised I wasn’t at a Cith game. Instead I just let them get on with thinking they have got one over us by singing that song in an empty concourse. For the record even if the mem has the worlds largest screen and we’re giving out free beer and there was topless girls I still wouldn’t go there to watch an England game. There is other places in Bristol to watch the game so why are they choosing to come to the home of Bristol City to watch?
  14. I really enjoyed the evening. Personally attending rugby is very much a one off for me as I prefer the intensity of football, rugby is too laid back for my liking in the stands. From the SS it was really difficult to even try and see what was happening. I’ve always followed Bristol’s fortunes from afar and it was great to take part in the celebrations, although I did feel like an outsider. Always enjoy a good pitch invasion also.
  15. We are clearly missing a real attacking threat. I like Bobby but he is far too isolated on his own.
  16. Well now I've listened to 30 minutes of Derby chat I'm now fully in the know about everything Derby. Now let's get on with the match.
  17. Apart from Kelly the subs bench is made up of all players signed by LJ.
  18. I'm another one that doesn't like Wolves and I don't even know why either. I guess it's the baby poo coloured shirts, horrible stadium and Wolverhampton has to be one of the worst places in this country.
