Pisano for the injured hunt - Palmer for Walsh - ummm attacking midfielder for a defensive one when 1 down in a must win game - Taylor for Pisano - umm a striker for a defender allowing us to go to 3 -4-1-2 , same reason as above - Where you watching the same game as me? Walsh spent the first half pinging balls about, moving it around and orchestrating and gets taken off when Pack spent most of the game (and the previous 4) giving the ball away. Pisano perhaps unfortunate, but I’d have kept him in a back 3 with Kalas and Kelly and taken off Pack, moving Webster into midfield. Still a lucky 3 points, at least we are the beneficiaries of a win with a poor performance for a change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curr Avon Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 Just been on RB when I only wanted to leave a message about our 11th away win (best run since 1906). God, I love you City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megansdad Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 agree a win despite rather than because of the performance - but so often in the last few weeks its been the other way around. Great 1st goal from Pato and Famara deserved his. So close to being down and out with the award of a very very soft penalty with attacker having lost control of the ball and diving over Max. Come on Swansea. Thought subs made sense Walsh and Pack playing the same role so made sense to bring on Palmer, while Pisano sacrificed for the extra striker which equally made sense. By no means a great performance but an excellent result which at this stage is about all that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that the nature of the beast though. We were losing, playing poorly and with all hope slipping away. Would you expect a party atmosphere. Just people getting frustrated and sounding off. It's a good release from tension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course cannot be sure everything else would have stayed the same, but just highlights the thin lines in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you never know, it may balance itself out over the next week or so? Derby & Middlesbrough suffer the same fate and poor decisions by refs and we get Lady Luck against Hull and we sneak into the play offs! win the two legged semi with a dodgy pen and then in the final we beat Villa following a penalty shoot out Well, you never know!

Offside Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 Great result. Regardless of whether or not we sneak into 6th place by the end of the season (and my glass is now half full again) it’s good to get a win after three defeats in the previous four games.

Usual story - people making their mind up about the result before the result, judging the entire season on an hour of football at Millwall, then curiously disappearing into the ether.
