Amazing what the transfer window does to players

[maxjak]

Whatever happens now, will not detract from an excellent 90 minute performance ................if only we had a goal scorer?

Easily the best performance over 90 minutes this season IMO and against decent opponents, all of the City team did themselves proud, well played. Also what an excellent referee. Enjoyed watching the game +++ my heart rate was even fairly comfortable throughout.

Indeed, and what a difference it makes.

An open and thoroughly enjoyable game, allowed to flow and none of the usual bias to (ex) Premier League teams

Plus games against Fulham have all been very good in recent years. Bargain. 

Shame I had to work

[westonred]

 Its been a great game im proud of them today whatever the score ends up to match one of the best teams in the league deserves credit but they'll still be lots of moaners

This is Dave Rennie’s moment to shine. Let’s see how fit we actually are…

Yep. If it had been a League game and we drew 0-0 with Fulham, having been the better team, I’d be well pleased. 

[Dan Robin]

I enjoyed our second half performance: good passing, chances, solid at the back. That being said, I fear that we will regret our lack of accuracy  in front of the net when energy levels will lower.

[Lanterne Rouge]

Conway on for Wells

[old_eastender]

lost the Hesgoal stream, anyone else?

Depends how you look at it @Finley_Smith10.

 

Football fans suck up modern football far too easily in my opinion. You frequently hear of football fans wanting to protest about something or other, whether that's ownership (Perhaps the most common), challenging the position of the manager on the back of a long run of bad results, or simple things like ticket pricing. Quite often these protests don't come to fruition, or at best, is a small minority of fans protesting before or after the game, therfore not really having the intended impact and usually something the club involved can sweep under the carpet pretty quickly, and then carry on mugging off fans. Just look at the recent "walkout" by Everton fans. That was embarrassing.

 

As I said in another thread this week, hopefully someone at BCFC will see that they have got the pricing horribly wrong today, and wake up to this. And if what @Meh has said about concessions is true, well, that's shocking in my opinion and goes to show how out of touch the club, and football in general is with the fans right now.

 

Today wasn't an organised protest, it was simply the fans turning their back on the club for making a very poor decision, hence the low attendance.  

 

Your right it is embarrassing... for Bristol City FC.

[Final 3 Star]

A really solid 90 minutes and looking the stronger of the two as the game unfolds. Looking forward to a bonus 30 minutes - even though the management aren't thrilled, I'd imagine. As mentioned before, the ref's having a really good game, too. I've probably jinxed it now...

Really enjoyable game of football, well done City!

Almost forgotten what that was like

When was the last time we had a penalty shoot out at Ashton Gate? I can’t think of one.

We had one against Everton in or around 2005 or 2006 if I recall correctly 

[And Its Smith]

Best performance since ?  Thinking early Holden days

We don’t even get a penalty in a game normally let alone a penalty shoot out! 

[The Swan and Cemetery]

Their keeper’s decent on crosses, need to try to keep it away from him a bit more.

Hesgoal back now with Astro footage with commentary
