Get Martin off. Offering nothing.

And Nagy, Massengo, Wells, CoD etc etc

[George Rs]

Dean Holden is the exact combo of cotteril and LJ , Same formation and stubbornness as cotts and same stupid tendency’s as LJ, this season will be fun 

[Numero Uno]

I would bring on the youngsters if for no other reason than to send a message out to one or two players. They cannot do worse, it's impossible.

Didn’t bother with the first half to watch taskmaster repeats with the wife. I trust I made the right call?

Nothing can be as bad as Taskmaster

11 players out mate. Not sure what everyone expects? 

 

I expect a bit of effort

[RedM]

It looks like everyone to a man has regressed.

No ideas, no movement, no passion or desire. Stale

[Coppello]

I’ve seen more box entries at a convent. 

[Red Tetley]

How do we turn experienced professionals with great records in this division to bunnies all the time?

 

[Ivorguy]

We have no threat up front at all.  Perhaps the two youngsters, Bell and Pearson, could be given a chance.  They surely couldn’t be any worse?  And they do score.

Be brave, Dean, your job is about to come under threat (at least at any club but City!!)

[stortfordred]

2020 has been a disaster, and the football hasn’t lifted the mood. 2021 could throw a BCFC relegation into the mix. We’re doomed Captain Mainwaring, we’re doomed.

This has been coming- but we are an absolute shambles. 

Generous assessment. 
Shambles is far too fair an assessment. 
Absolute bollox!!

[Davefevs]

1st Half Summary:

• if you play that deep, you will get bummed at this level
• if 3 players can't mark 1 striker, what's the point
• if their striker is generally poor back to goal, how does he put our CBs off so much.
• Poor delivery from Hunt from some very good advanced positions.
• no leadership
• because we are so deep, we cannot press the ball

Generally if the opposition hit a long ball and it takes the camera so long to pan to our back 3 we are too deep.

Daniel Johnson. lucky to be on the pitch....should have two yellows.

Geoff Eltringham is a shit ref.  Always has been.

DH, out. I said I can wait until Christmass, but I cant. 

Get him out and Mark Ashton, they can not do better. A league two could have one shot at the target, so do not tell me that we had injuries. Our reserves are at League one standard for sure at least.  It is just the liability of the head coach, he is a good lad but he s not a manager so get him out.

The bloke who owns this club will not take us to the Premiership. Get used to it.

[westonred]

Another pathetic 45 mins without a single shot on target What does COD actually bring to the team he's had so many chances and proves hes not up to the job time to get rid. I think we need about 5 players in the transfer window I think we night as well bring some of these under 21 squad players a game 2nd half they cant be worse than half a dozen out there tonight

ZERO shots AGAIN

[Banjo Island]

If this carries on and it shows no sign of improving we are nailed on for the drop we are a total mess

Um, Mrs Browns Boys followed closely by any City v Preston

[Middlesbrough Robin]

Maybe WB aren't the best attacking option to rely on when you have to flog the same two players, two games per week, for weeks on end.

[bristolcitysweden]

Very poor again. No attacking play what so ever.

I know we have a lot of injuries, but at this level you surely need a squad that are knocking on the door ready to start or compete for a starting place.

Think shambles is an extreme description we’re doing out best but something needs to be said about how this squad has been assembled.

[Wrongagain]

We are never going to get anywhere with our attack, Fammy missing so Wells has decided it’s up to him to give the ball away at every first touch, Martin does not even realise the ball is coming to him until he turns the wrong way.

There are some good players still available, just not being motivated.

[Finley_Smith10]

Not going to blame injuries when there’s nearly 20 million pounds worth of championship footballers on that pitch, embarrassing and also no shots in 90 minutes of football

Same as every ******* game mate. But if you haven't got the quality, you're going to struggle. It's really that simple. 

People saying that there isn't any fight or passion is absolute nonsense. 2 games a week, 11 players out and funnily enough we are struggling. 

Hardly rocket science. 

Only plan I can see is to get the ball to Hunt and hope Martin does something.

Is that it? Is that the same as every ****** game?

Still, if you’re happy being laughed at by Sky again, good on you.

There’s enough quality in that team to be doing more: Martin, Wells, O’Dowda, Nagy are all internationals.

[Buster]

Total shit cheap option out

[Bassomylord]

when was the last time we actually created a decent chance?

[Ryan_BCFC]

Can’t wait to boss league one again next year
