Ahh! When are things going to fall for us in the opposition box?

Anyone been to Black Cumin on Cotham Hill?

Seems to get good reviews and I fancy a trip back to a bit of Bristol where I spent most of the nineties. 

I listened to the game on 5 Sports xtra and thought they were pretty good, not very biased considering they were radio Nottingham people.

Complimetary about us saying we could easily have won the game. Also pointing out the lovely moment when after the final whistle, Moussa Niakhate , who missed the deciding penalty for Senagal in the Afcon recently, ran over to talk to and console Sam Bell. Well played young man. 

Feel for Bell, sounded like he was superb in extra time

The better players normally win a penalty shootout, it’s not the lottery some make out.

Missed our opportunity in the home game and in extra time tonight

Cornick's big moment that could have been 

Ball got caught under Wells feet when he was a yard out and looked certain to score.

On top now…..

Fair play, that’s a good step further than having a coffee morning.

Is this the first game we've been involved in that has VAR? I can't recall one?

Wasn’t West Ham away?

Have we signed him

It must be a side effect from when he did play for us

One nil to Burnley at Man City………..for the minutes Han-Noah was on the field.

So a loan looks unlikely, similar to when he was with us and a loan to Birmingham was arranged but he preferred to stay and fight for his place.

Another cameo appearance and once again Burnley score once he’s on. 

I would have thought it would be cheaper to get a budget hotel in Nottingham then get the train in the morning.

First train from Nottingham to Manchester is 5.20am if you have to be back early. 

Thanks for the feedback @phantom

Communications do seem to be improving, albeit from a low bar.

Perhaps he doesn't live in Leeds?

 

Ha! Maybe. If he doesn’t it would be an odd tweet as it’s about Leeds fans who most of which have to travel a great deal further.

The Leeds miles are one way , Plymouth's are return

I don’t think Maths is Tommo’s strong point.

 I looked at the numbers and his didn’t look right. Quick Look at Google and approx 1114 miles one way so 2228 round trip. The Plymouth guy is spot on.

If you’re having a whine, at least get your basic facts right. 

Yes a closer look tells you the Leeds fan isn’t the brightest, it’s not a one way total , I’m not sure how he came to that figure

Had to laugh at this Plymouth fan putting a poor old long suffering Leeds fan in his place.

It’s a built in excuse!
 

I think we are soft in league games at the moment personally!

Yes we’ve often been bullied by teams in recent years. Although Williams tackle may well have deserved a red, besides that it was good to see us do a bit of bullying 

All I heard after the WHU game from people that know I support City was what a dirty team we are, how did we not have 2 sent off, Williams should face a long ban…

A quick google has us second bottom in the championship discipline table, with only Huddersfield having fewer cards than us. 
 

Edit. Actually we’ve had fewer cards than any team in the championship, 49, but one was a red and Huddersfield, 50 all yellows 

I can’t be bothered to read the O’Leary threads. Has anyone actually said WHO this keeper is that doesn’t make mistakes, wants to join Bristol City and is affordable?

I’m still of the mind that Max is an average Championship keeper playing in an average championship side.

The first of 4 difficult looking league games and although our record against them isn’t great, I’m really looking forward to Friday night now.

Wish I'd managed to watch on a Cov stream. I'm fed up with hearing from Robins TV that we are basically prime Real Madrid (with our only handicap being competition winner Mehmeti) whilst Manning is the next Pep.

It’s a bit of a superstitious thing, I have much better record watching the home commentary when we play away. 

A lot of praise from the Coventry commentators, one of the better attacking teams to play at their place this season
