Didnt hear it. He miss target or gk save something he shouldve scored?

He missed an open goal from 6 yards, ball played across the 6 yard box by Semenyo, Weimann ran in on back post and somehow got the ball to hit his heel and go 3 yards wide. Simple chance that may well have put the game to bed.

got all the cunningham shithousery to come yet

Like to see him get up in Nige’s face like he did that time at our place. My guess is that he wouldn’t!

I'm getting some cracking co-comms from the wife today.

Weimann should've "just popped it in the goal".

Oh and 1-0 is better than not 1-0.

It's like being in the RobinsTV studio. 

 

She should go on Mastermind.

Quick thoughts

Klose has been immense 

Really marshalling the defence well

Preston are shocking 

They must come at us more 2nd half surely, then again we are going well and we could get more goals yet ourselves

Klose not put a foot wrong so far, hope I've not jinxed him.

In fact, every player has played well, hats of to Massengo and Scott who are running the midfield.

[Gazred]

Blimey that was good. 2-0 would of been a perfect 45.

Looked better in all areas and playing some really nice stuff.

An early 2nd goal needed though.

[Bris Red]

That is the best half of football i have seen us play this season. Klose looks very assured at the back aswell. Can clearly see progress with Pearson and its truly refreshing to see..

[Fordy62]

The more you see that goal from Martin the better it gets!

[cityloyal473]

This is going too well. It’s gonna end up with Nige having to chuckle in his post March interview about our failure to hold on. Kill them off city. 

[pl00peh91]

We’re going to lose 2-1 in the last minute 

[ChippenhamRed]

What I like about us now is that we’re starting to play good, entertaining football more consistently. We’re still losing some, but the defeats are either because we are simply outclassed (Fulham) or where we probably should have won (Luton).

Much better than scraping by with poor, boring performances and wins owing more to luck than superiority - which has been the case with us for a long time.

And all of that is with a limited squad with some very obvious areas for improvement. Every reason to be optimistic about where we’re heading.

[Midlands Robin]

Loving reading all the positive comments about our performance today. 

We definitely seem to have stepped on over the last month or so and this gives us a really good platform to build on. 

Sounds like I'm missing a cracker so far.

Liking Klose so far… lots of shouting and encouragement. Plus calm when on the ball… playing some lovely stuff, a second would be useful.

Plus pushing their players around in the box, not allowing himself to be pushed around.  Two 40 yard passes into the front men...passes, not hoofs.

Pring has lost concentration 3 times, once trying to run the ball out, the other two poor touches, one under his foot, the other too heavy.  Concentrate please Cam.

 

Chris Honour on Robinstv co-comms is spot on with his summaries.

Jay Dasilva with moments of brilliance. Looking so confident.

Bar a crap cross early on, he's played really well.  Keeper targeting him with kicks, but Kalas so happy in wide positions covering round.

[IAmNick]

Preston look poor, but they're a good side. 3W 2D 1L in their last 6... we're making them look poor. Credit to city imo.

[Super]

Excellent stuff only negative is its only 1-0

Think we were 3-1 up when he missed iirc.

[RedM]

Sun going down now, getting bloody cold here now. Hopefully the football will be just as good in the 2nd half and they are attacking the goal Infront of us after it all being down the other end. But then again we had all the play early at Luton too

You aren’t half. Some of the interlinking up front is incredible.

I reckon Scott will find the score sheet second half. 

[ashton_fan]

The difference between this and the Luton game is our defence looks ok

[ProfitInMyPocket]

They seem to be focusing on our right with the diagonal into JD but Kalas has been supporting him well. Preston haven't really got going yet but the way they are zipping the ball in to forward players could catch us offguard if we aren't switched on. 

[Mortis]

Not a lot to say other than we ( Preston ) should be 2/3 down , you’ve played football , pressed us all over the park , every one of your players has won there own battle .. miracle we are only 1-0 down .. City mullered is with football

Honor is one of the better co-comms to have appeared on Robins TV. Quite enjoying listening to him.

Hi Mortis, good to see you posting.  Hope you're well, but hope we are celebrating, not you, later!
