WhistleHappy Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Wonder how many of Weds nights early leavers left early again today, (shit week they've had!) ... NB: Leave Ashton Gate games early - At Your Peril ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseybean Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Based on that performance, it really could be our season. To play that poorly, to score twice (from so few chances), to play without an established / recognised striker and to have a number of key players out long-term injured and to still get a point somehow weirdly bodes well.

Numero Uno Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 It was poor today, not even the rosiest of rose tinters can dispute that BUT we scrapped another point and we do have players like Kalas, Dasilva, Nagy and Smith to come back who will make a difference. Not time to throw in the towel just yet!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjak Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 I know people get emotional, and it wasn't a very good performamce? And It's something when an 18year old comes on and shows you how to compete and tackle?...........but some of the comments from armchair fans are just ludicrous, get behind your team.......we are lacking 3 to 4 of our best players and are still in the top six! PS Well played Wigan, I thought u were excellent today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a mixture of us being a way more pragmatic team than we're used too or expect from a top six team and maybe us genuinely being a bit lucky. Whilst XG isnt the be all and end all, the fact we're in the bottom four for goal scoring chances created says something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EstoniaTallinnRed Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 A point gained there, but still a very lack lustre performance, it almost seemed as if they were knackered after the Charlton game. Is it all down to the injuries , tiredness, or is it just a nervousness of playing at home that is the difference between the away and home performances.

Hardly woeful........they do have a poor away record.......but i thought they played really well and deserved a point. This is the Championshp, where the bottom team can beat the league leaders, so give some credit where its due? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make a Sub Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Most fans need to lower their expectations to mid table. Bristol city fc will still be an average championship side in 5 years time still playing dull football at home and LJ still tinkering with his side.

They didn’t pass really well, of the few shots they had, the majority were way off target. The only thing they did well was realise we offer nothing in the last third and had the sense to sit deep and pack the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Exile Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Not the greatest performance! But in fairness the squad is stretched to breaking. And they didn't give up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickolas Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 They took advantage of our obvious lack of height and weakness at crosses. Fair play to them. We were poor. Too slow in possession. Clearly no outball without a physical presence up top so almost as if we played it around just for the sake of it. starting to hit home that we need 2 or 3 back from injury imo now. bit of freshness required. kalas got to come straight back in for a bit of steel. lets hope Nagy and Korey arent far behind.

Dan Robin Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 I could watch only a little part of the match, so I can't rate the performance...but struggling so much at home is not encourageing, as our injury record (a few days ago Hunt,now Moore). TBS, a point is a point, and the league table remains good for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Point more than we deserved. Take the point and move on to the next game. 6th after 14 games after being decimated by injury. Yep, I’ll take that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Isewater Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 From what I saw we were disjointed and lacked any link up play or coherence. Too much tinkering ? Too many matches ? Too many injuries ? Who knows . We did , however , save something from the match and are sitting proudly in the top six tonight so onto Friday. Well done to the lads for plugging away. There are NO easy matches in this division. Any opponent is capable of hurting another . It can only be a positive that we are where we are after a quarter of the season has gone .

WhistleHappy Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Credit where due, Great tactics today, keeping low profile avoiding a too early top two spot, grabbed a point to keep us in touch while at the same time staying under the radar as much as possible. Biding our time til new year when we bomb on with newly fit players taking the baton and returning to rip up this league all the way to the Prem. Just genius tactics, thats all it is. COYR's, never fear, its all under control. Always Believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
