Spot on Dave. Several opportunites to prevent the goal. None taken, Surprised Williams lost out in that challenge. Amazed Massengo didn't take one for the team. An then. Kalas (who should know better) got sucked out of position, moving, needlessly, towards the ball. As you say "collective errors".

Good news. Will be great to share our promotion season performances on the box, and to hear the pundits gushing over how awesome we are.

Scott is showing some of the older ones, earning a lot more, the input and impact that we, the fans. expect from all our players, week-in. week-out. Pleased to see young ones being given a chance, and proving they are as good, if not better, than some of the more experienced professionals. Their commitment, enthusiasm, energy and fearlessness is refreshing. If you're a youngster at City now, you can see that if Pearson thinks you're good enough, you'll get a chance to prove it with a first-team opportunity. Youngsters make mistakes, but so do the older players. The key thing is that some of these mistakes have been so costly, and players must stop repeating those mistakes, after we've been told they will learn from those mistakes. All in all, I think we are progressing under Pearson and the football is far more attractive and entertaining than it has been for quite some time. Like the long winless run at Ashton Gate, our propensity to concede late costly goals will inevitably come to an end.

Thsi was the beginning of all those conspiracy theories and the cryptic messages from KewAnon? Anyone got a MBCGA hat ?

Two Bristol Citys ? If the internet existed and we had a fans' forum in those days, it would have been "Two Teams in Bristol" ! (both Red of course)

Damn that injury-plague ! Our medics and fitness coaches need to up their game. Send out the scouts immediately to find some players worthy of tying up King Gerry's boot-laces.

Our present-day Gerry Gow?

Mama told me there'll be days like this.

Well done Nige and the lads. That win was much-needed and a bit of a surprise. Dedicate that win to the wonderful Ashton Gate 8.

Boro fans were certain they were going to win, and would have been very pleased with that. A draw would have made them mad. But losing will make them even Wilder.

We like to make a drama out of a crisis.

'fraid that would be a straight red.

That reminds me ....... anyone seen "Stranger Things" on Netflix?

Maybe it's time to bury the hatchet?

Sounds about right. Definitely a pro and well known.

What's the politically-correct pronoun for this .... "thing"?

Crowd must have been far bigger than that, as those on the roof etc clearly didn't go through the turnstiles. "Official" figure would only include those that went through turnstiles.

Much respect and condolences to you ScottishRed.

Our defence can't handle crosses, which is why they were crucified . I think that's just about nailed it. I'm dreading the Easter fixtures.

That's probably why it's called Bleakpool. Northern equivalent of Weston super Nightmare.

Fight, fight, wherever you may be... We are the boys from the breast cnutry.

That reminds me .... anyone know what happened to Terry Bush after he finished playing for us?

Player screams in agony as he loses all six fingers - another annus horribilis !

Anyone remember the days when games did actually end on 90 minutes regardless of injuries etc? I'm not imagining that am I ?

Ahhh!.... breathe in that promising smell of success. And in pursuit of success, Pearson isn't afraid of flushing away a few useless turds.
