Suffering fools? Now that's different 

Don't often see 'Manning' and 'up' in the same sentence.

Tbf I’m an xG cynic on the basis of individual chances. I don’t think you can boil it down to x chances from y position go in because it doesn’t account for ability of player, defenders, speed of chance, height of ball etc. 

For me it’s useful as a validation of the points in bold above on a macro basis. The collective xG is handy as to whether  a team is under/over performing and whereas the table shows what has happened, xG more shows what would be likely to happen nine times out of ten (collectively) and points to where things were going.

Prime example (and to in part agree with you) - we expect Vardy to score at least one of his four. You saw that with eyes, xG confirms it and as a collective sample begins to remove subjectivity.

It’s not a magic bullet, and on a chance by chance basis it’s a bit crap. But as a collective “pressure” metric it’s pretty useful.

XG??

We never this bullshit in the Eighties.

If it's Carl Shutt, it goes in. If it's Scott McGarvey it doesn't. 

Simple.

that was soo funny,to be fair to that kid,he/she didnt give up all game,all done in great spirit aswell,respect to the fgr fans having a good laugh with him/her. will definitely remember that more than the game.

(there was a rather overweight child at the end of the stockport fans leaning over  giving the home fans in the south stand the big un all game,no nastiness or anything, just straight forward honest banter) the diabetes chant was as close as it got .

Aaaah! 

Now I understand @REDOXO's comment.

(I gave him a laughing emoji anyway to be polite )

If he was ill why the f did he come on? Surely manning knew.

Oh it doesn't matter if they are ill or injured. 

Ref. Cam Pring a few games ago.

Did he not say something along the lines that he introduced the more passive block as a way to preserve the players legs during the busy winter schedule... or am I misremembering?

Jesus Christ. 

Let's just forget trying to climb the table during the 'busy winter schedule' to preserve the players legs so they will be fresh for the arse-end of the season when we will consequently have **** all to play for. 

What a friggin' genius.

Oh for six months ago...

Yeah, was thinking about this earlier.

Manning may or may not pull something out medium term, still has a lot to do.

Those above him, the structure- still a shambles.

The one above everyone is the real problem.

Some of the match reports are a bit one eyed. A lot in respect of Leicester in the Times.

Double save by Hermansen not mentioned.

McCrorie hitting side netting at 0-0 not mentioned.

Penalty shout was mentioned, the Report said the one on Conway should have been.

It also mentioned us in the sense of:

"It was a result which will have gone some way to winning over the locals, who are struggling to forgive Bristol City for sacking the former Leicester manager Nigel Pearson and bringing in Liam Manning, who hailed a "thoroughly deserved win".

Guardian report is a bit better although an interesting snippet.

'An win' doesn't allay any of my doubts about the Guardian.

The token revisionism - 'Tinman' this that and other is so, so transparent.

@Cole Not Gas explain to me how Tinnion gave Bell his chance.

He didn't sign him nor Conway. Tim Kirk did.

He didn't develop him nor Conway. Gary Probert did.

He didn't play him, nor Conway. Pearson did.

He didn't integrate him, nor Conway. Pearson did.

Aside from finding local loans (which literally anyone could resolve/organise, and some - Bells loan to Grimsby - were a waste of time), what's he done?

Has he explained yet?

No?...

... Go figure.

Luckily, not all our fans are as easily pleased as you, or we could find ourselves languishing below the Sags.  If you just blindly accept everything dished out by the club, what’s to stop them just getting complacent?  

Although it’s not our choice, we are customers now don’t forget, so if we don’t like the product being served up, we’ve got every right to complain.  

If you regularly went into a restaurant and kept getting served up shit food, only to be told by the owner that it’s his restaurant and he can do what he likes, what would you do?  

The most sensible options would be to refuse to eat there any more, or keep complaining and try to get him to raise his game and serve up some better food.

In your case, it appears you would rather keep going back and eating yet more crap food without complaint, instead criticising anyone else who complains about the poor standard of the product.  

Very odd behaviour and hardly likely to see any improvement, is it??

I think we all deserve to have a little fun; perhaps at the negative **** who seem to think the only point of this forum is criticize my/our club we support. We could start a new threat naming & shaming those who find think it's hilarious to be smug & highly critical of our management and all good things BCFC

Lets start naming Silvio, BCFC 31, Cloudy, Uno, Ivan - all these people who will NOT read this post because it will make them chew so much humble pie they will hate waking up tomorrow to realize what total chumps they've made themselves look, that we did beat a Prem club with a bench today worth £95m, that Liam has yet again shown the football world he is smart and can get an average team to beat the best. I loved today even more knowing those we can name will have a horrible day; lets hope they also have a horrible day on Monday when they'll be unable to roll out their pre-written and predictable complaints about all those guys who do so much to help BCFC. I think a few of them will be man enough to own up and say we were again a good team today, all playing for the shirt, in front of a sell-out crowd at our great stadium and where Bristol Sport did absolutely nothing wrong.

Oh, and by the way anyone who enjoyed today and posts positively may be told by the neggies that they work for B.Sport - hilarious

What. A. ****.

RedOxo claimed mehmetis assist with us being up there, parking was a doddle too,because we rocked up early to watch the city game, the road opposite into the houses had loads of spaces and 2 minutes out back up the lane after.  

next away play day we are going to try exeter, with more time to plan it, i can meet up with you and share a car down if you fancy it. probably be able to work it for a city alternative match day with the new tv deal 

no regrets from me about going, i wouldnt have gone to the gate anyway but did feel a bit sorry for RO dragging him away from possibly our second best performance this season under LM, at least from the games i have seen. 

Hope you had a good day despite the result. 

Still up for catching a game there myself. Even if it's conference next season. 

My old man lived in Nailsworth for the last few years of his life, so I guess that is some kind of (tenuous) affiliation.

And Tins said that having grown through the academy together Conway and Bell would be the City front two for years to come! 

Tinnion says whatever he thinks makes Tinnion look good at the time. 

He doesn't have the intelligence to grasp that things might come back to bite him in the arse. 

But then he doesn't need to. Because apparently he is the club 'legend'.

Get him gone.

And why would it even matter if CNG is a Bristol Sport employee, so what?  I'd work for Bristol Sport if they paid me enough to get out of bed each morning!

Because it's highly likely that he would be pushing club propaganda rather than expressing his own opinion. 

But I guess you know that.
