    Especially when you consider the amount of money this squad has cost us. Of course it isn’t a pin point indicator but the purchase value of our squad is something like 16/17th in the league. 

    To expect good performance every single week in one of the hardest leagues in europe, without being one of the top spenders is just silly imo. For a Leicester fan it’s understandable, not for us. 

    As the saying goes, a sign of a good team is when they pick up points even when they aren’t playing well. Had a very good last few games, off the mark today and without a recognised CB yet still getting points is a plus imo, just have to make sure those performances are a rarity. 

    Realistically i think Manning has done enough to deserve the summer. That doesn’t mean i think he will suddenly shoot us into playoffs next year, I still think we will finish somewhere between 10-16th. But I see 0 point in changing manager at this time. Give the man a chance and let’s see what happens.

    Don’t share the view of some that we should be really worried for next season. But it is Bristol City after all ;)

    I agree George.

    We are what we are and whilst I don't accept our mediocrity at this level, I can tolerate it.

    Been going since 85 so perhaps my tolerance and expectation levels have been tempered with time but for me, if we make a top 10 finish or even flirt with the play offs in the Champ we've probably done well for ourselves when you take the passion and desire as a supporter out of the perspective.

    He’s very good, isn’t he?

    Top drawer again today, 3 clean sheets on the spin.

    Well done to him.

    Pretty much single handedly (plus feet and his other hand) made us worth the point today.

    Also been looking very strong on crosses and balls in of late.

    Keep it up Max, good stuff.

    He suits their one up top style much better than Conway though.

    Jacob Brown and Kevin Nisbet also ahead of Conway. He's some way down the pecking order and not pulling up any trees this season in our new system so can't see it happening unfortunately.

    Agree he needs a better season to raise that profile and get himself in contention.

    The competition is there but if I were TC I'd look at those ahead and feel confident I could get in the side.

    Maybe he needs a move to fully realise his potential 👀

  4. If Dykes can keep getting called up, there is surely hope for Tommy. Not exactly blessed with talent in that area of the pitch are they.

    Forwards: Che Adams (Southampton), Lyndon Dykes (QPR), Lawrence Shankland (Hearts).
