Marina's Rolls Royce Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 I have rarely ever in the last few years experienced such an outpouring of negativity and posters seemingly desperate for us to fail. We didn't. We won. Get over it you muppets. Still in the chase , still in the pack - winning very ugly yet up the league and still in the FA Cup.

IAmNick Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Why exactly would people be desperate for us to fail? What a bizarre thing to say. I reckon most people are angry at the poor performance because they want City to do well and also entertain them? Bizarre thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sat there kicking every ball and desperate for us to hold on. People are negative because the football is negative. People are negative because Holden plays negative. People are negative because if your tactic is to hang in a game, pretty soon your goalie won’t be in the form of his life and the woodwork won’t save you. People aren’t desperate for us to fail. They’re bloody worried as to how we’re set up and can see it’s not sustainable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate we're bloody Bristol City people aren't spending £10 / match or £100s on a season ticket, and posting thousands of times on this forum without supporting the team.

Roger Red Hat Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Game after game after game, hang on grimly. WTF is going on. Surely we can't be setting out to play that way all the time. Its been a constant this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly you would not see a team of 10 year olds play as naively as City did for the last hour of this game. WTF do our England setup coaches do all week? As for Holden, why leave it until we concede when it had been clearly coming. Not that the subs made any real difference, given every time we gave it away the whole team retreated to 5 yards from the edge of our box, allowing Huddersfield to stroll deep into our half and get crosses into our box at will. The last 60 mins were quite possibly the worse we have been all season. Thank goodness for Bents & Kallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finley_Smith10 Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Didn’t play the best but still grinding out games. 5 wins in 7. It was obvious with Rowe going off we looked uncomfortable however a wins and win. 3 more points to safety Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loco Rojo Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Not sure if some on here are desperate for us to fail but understand where you're coming from. I think it's more that they love to moan and will find any excuse to find something be negative about. We could win 10 nil and they complain we didn't win 11 nil. Right now I think OTIB will only improve (for 5 minutes) when Holden and Ashton leave (until the next scape goat comes along). As I've said before, not the kind of people you want to be stood next to when things get tough and pulling together is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely we can't be setting out to play that way all the time. Its been a constant this season. That’s the problem - we are. Again, Holden had options tonight - Hunt, Moore, Martin, Massengo on the bench. I thought the selection was bang on, and at 2-0 we should have pushed on against a side who’d lost four on the bounce, but we then retreated. And retreated. And retreated. That has to be instruction. You can’t tell me Palmer and Semenyo of 2 of the midfield are naturally defensively inclined, but we sat back. That has to be an instruction as we do it every single bloody week.

But general play they looked like a promotion chasing team in how they dominated us, we looked like a team near the bottom of the table. Impressed with Huddersfield. They have a philosophy and are well drilled.....with a very average back line. We have much better players but no philosophy hence why every week its crap but the talented individuals save us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC Grim Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 If you're happy with not even having a shot in a half of football at home against a team lower than mid table then fair play to you. I for one, would like better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
