Top Robin Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 Three losses and a draw in last 4 games have all but destroyed our play off chances. Once again we've blown a really good opportunity. One would usually blame the manager for this but on OTIB if you criticise Lee Johnson you get berated so I better blame the players for this.

Don’t need to blame anyone. We are the 8th best team in the league. I’m happy with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you have to blame anyone? The club as a whole put in a good shift this season, performed above most people's expectations, but ultimately fell short. I can understand being disappointed, and I am too. Yes there will be learnings for next season, so let's analyse and improve. No need to be so negative and pinpoint one or two particular people who failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I for one am not happy with such mind blowing mediocrity over two decades of SL rule A city like Bristol should be well capable over a period of 20 years or so of doing better than this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we were 12th a couple of months ago and finished 8th then everyone would be happy. I love this league. Watched city for years every week in league one.

Enjoyed the season and will enjoy Millwall on Tuesday Strangely I feel fairly calm too. It’s nice to have all the pressure gone. At least we can blood the youngsters in the last couple of games. It’ll be nice to see Semenyo get a run out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having spent most of our existence in the third tier I’m happy with yearly progress in the top half of the Championship. There’s always something to hope for but that doesn’t mean we can’t be content if it doesn’t materialise, provided we are still playing good football and being competitive at his level.

I would be more annoyed if we weren’t progressing every season but we are so not too bothered. Johnson is learning all the time as well. I am in no hurry to go up either. Probably a minority view, I appreciate that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that we're so much better off than those dismal league 1 days that we grew up with, but watching City rise up the league then crumble does take it's toll!
