He really isn’t good enough at commanding his box, he’s a decent player but he’s not going to get you top 6, thought he was very poor for their goal. We definitely need a better goalkeeper.

Pring can play that role, it’s why I don’t feel we need to invest in a CB, it would be nice but we have more pressing positions, Striker, CM and GK.

We would have to question the board big time. He’s had to sell his two best players in Semenyo and Scott, for which we have brought in close to £40M, he’s done a great job in getting the wage bill down and doing what SL always wanted, having a team full of academy talent. Some more respect needed I feel for Nige, he hasn’t let us down on the whole in the market, unlike past managers.

James Piercy had just released this. Similar to his interview on the radio, but seems more agitated. I’ve said it before but I really don’t think the board are that enamoured with Nigel. LJ got everything he wanted let’s be honest and made a mess

Totally agree, when we’ve seen LJ being given so much luxury, 13 signings some seasons and £2M on Engvall’s of the world, it’s a crying shame we didn’t have Nige back then! He deserves to be backed. I am sure we can do something reasonably.

He sounded very annoyed, almost felt he wanted to say he knows as much as us! Interesting he didn’t deny wanting to now look at a striker and other plans in the market, he said it’s whether or not we can but he cannot comment right now.

Is Shags Tommy in disguise?!

He was seen getting off the coach at AG tonight, check out the Bristol Live video.

BBC don’t often report until they are fully sure with two reliable sources. Makes you wonder what really was the truth at the weekend.

What a terrible week this is turning into. I truly hope Tinnion and Nige have a plan, we have just lost the creative spark and best striker at club until Xmas at least. Stop messing about chasing defenders and GK, we need a creative CM and striker asap!

We usually sell out in London. It’s the Northern trips where we are Yeovil Town.

Really hope we keep him now with Tommy out and we focus our last acquisition on a loan striker. I think the defence can cope with what we have and fluidity of others, we need to move on from Kalas now in my view (appears we have). A GK would be good as I still have doubts over Max but not as essential as a forward.

I bought one asap as was convinced we would sell out in one day. Surprised we haven’t.

Same happened last summer, positive signings early on, Austria trip, easy friendly schedule aside from Bournemouth away. Then same issues with injuries and a poor start. As I’ve said I’m a big Nige fan but I wonder if he would be better in the Tinnion role with a more progressive Head Coach. Let’s see what happens, if we don’t do something in this window now to add goals to the team and creativity there is not a chance we will go above 14th.

Where are the goals coming from? It was already a concern, since Antoine left we are not creating or scoring enough. We’ve need a striker to upgrade on Wells who can’t do it all anymore despite being a decent player at this level. Cornick for me is another Steve Jones, no doubt he did well for Luton, but it just hasn’t clicked with us, he doesn’t look a threat and was very poor v PNE IMO. We need to get a striker on loan, we won’t for sure and that will be a mistake. All it takes is for Nakhi to go down and we can kiss goodbye to any success.

Depends on whether we went for a McCrorie or not.

Can’t help but think we may regret not going in for Yates at Blackpool. Loved his goal for Swansea at weekend, would have been a Vardy type for Nige.

That is the most Bristol City thing to happen to Bristol City, I fear the worst!!

Not so sure, GON was a fan of Scott when at Bournemouth.

This is a big problem for us. Tommy is the most obvious CF choice for us with his ability to hold the ball and link play, this is almost as bad as losing Scott. The good news is the window is still open, Nige may need to cut the stubborn approach to loans, we are missing a powerful forward, I’ve mentioned Joao already, surely worth exploring. Someone who can give us some pace and power up top.

Tinnion was watching him tonight. Could well be linked.

Little doubt that this season is last chance saloon for Nigel. Never get the feeling SL has a lot of time for him, injuries are frustrating but all the optimism of one week ago has certainly been crushed. Pressure on Tinnion and Nige now, if we sell Scott we cannot also go to Christmas without our two best forward thinking players. Big decision to be made market wise.

Time to speak to Lucas Joao?

This. Take the risk surely, I don’t see how £25M for Scott means we cannot invest in a couple. Surely we can break that mould. Very concerning, I like Wells but we cannot rely on him, Bell also doesn’t have the strength or hold up play to go central.

Too many games at the HPC? No doubt we have improved much better since Rolls left on that front, but it’s a concern to see how many have dropped so far. Not normal.
