This club, whenever is it straightforward stuff.

Painful to follow, wouldn’t change a bit though.

@bearded_red Joel Wilson on fire again for the first wicket.

Good morning Reds…

We need to get another 100 from somewhere.

Yeah I don’t see it now

Hard to see anything but an India win now.

Haha they’ve even got him in the studio now.

He’s so full of ****

Corberan red carded after about five minutes for kicking the ball before it had gone out for a throw in! i`ve never seen that before.

I know it was wrong, but Martin was such a **** about it.

As usual.

I had a Saints mate attend in away end, his view on Ashton Gate was great facilities around the ground, the Lansdown is an impressive stand, but the Atyeo was terrible, concourse tight and facilities poor, felt like the Dell! We do need to find a solution to the Atyeo, it is such a terrible stand which ruins the stadium look and feel. Plus it gives a massive advantage to away fans with the noise they can generate, he was surprised how quiet Ashton Gate was until we scored. 

With respect, I don’t want the away supporters having a good time in a nice concourse.

Is it another dodgy Indian review?

Duckett sublime.

Just looking at the NZ v SA test series. What poor form from South Africa to field their C team in the test arena.

I know money talks but apart from Eng, Ind and Aus, test cricket is dying…

I was talking to a mate before the game, we have had some odd injuries but his was up there.
Didn't go down to be carried off, didn't ask to go off but Pearson said he saw him limp so pulled him. Then he's out for months , strange indeed .

Was that the Ipswich game?

No, I don’t think it is. He’s probably just a bit stiff. First 45 minutes since November, for a 30+ year old. 

You make it sound as if he’s in a retirement home. He should be in the best shape of his life at 30!

Especially these days when fitness/gym is massive.

Hamstring tear, out for rest of the season. 

Couldn’t help but notice Mannings comments on Naismith…

“Kal’s just a bit stiff off the back of the other day so we need to assess him in the morning” 
 

Stiff? You’ve got the best facilities, best people around you, nutrition, pitches etc. Come on seriously… they’ve got it so easy.

Sorry I’ve had a bad day…

Late goals conceded v Norwich and Coventry could be the costly ones based on their league positions

Oh I had forgot about Coventry!
 

Not sure how considering it was the most recent one…

We’d have bitten several hands off for this…

….Saturday lunchtime, wouldn’t we?

Boro was a bit of a must not lose for me.  I know nothing would’ve been decided last Saturday, but even a draw would’ve been 7 league games without a win.  Defeat would obviously kick Boro in the opposite direction.

To get the win was fantastic…and of course it changed the mood for last night too.

Don’t get me wrong, I still think there is a lot of work to do, but…we have momentum.

The last minute defeats to Millwall and Norwich look to be frustrating now though. Swings and roundabouts I guess!

Preston always annoy me. Despite having a lower budget than us, I don’t recall us ever being above them since we came up together in 2015!

I saw Millwall looking very empty.  So not just us that had loads of no shows.  Must the the half term effect 

As did Stoke.

Every stadium tonight looking very empty!

Seems we are wearing the shirt against QPR. 

I really hope it doesn't have our sponsor on it. 

Here's hoping ...if it's got front and back sponsor, arm badges, name and number etc then apart from the badge and round neck, and obvious pinstripe it won't look much different to what we already have. 

This sponsor-free exclusive shirt will be worn by the team at Saturday’s Sky Bet Championship home match against QPR, with the players wearing white shorts and red and white socks. 

The club extends its gratitude to O’Neills, Huboo, DNRG, Watches of Bath and GoSkippy for their support in removing their logos from this unique edition shirt

Call me a a grumpy b*stard, but this is so f****** tinpot

 

I know what you mean. Having said that, it’s actually a nice shirt and video.

Really nice touch.

With all this talk recently for blue cards for cynical fouls, why are the refs not protecting the current system they have by booking players who commit them? Numerous times Saints players did this in the first half and the ref did not book them.

They did one at the very end when we were on the break, again no booking given.

I note the "Cult of Nige" are quiet tonight?  Ha!     PS.Not that i have anything against Uncle Nigel.

Just why?

Really no need for this nonsense.

Get in.

I don’t understand how a referee that’s yards away, can’t see that’s a dive?
