Oxford Red

Looking at the rate, or lack of, progress, if we stay up I can see a repeat of this next year.

I don't agree.

I think with a full pre season and full season starting with everyone on 0 that SC will do ok.

He took over a shambles from that last idiot.

Do the table suggest we are crap as well?

Absolutely.

The table confirms what my eyes have told me all season.

Ah I'm off to playas de las Americas next week

Was there this morning. Ideal time to go this I reckon.

I'm only 20 min up the road.

Where you staying

Callao Salvaje.

Handsome weather.

Kicking back in Tenerife, a bloke from Liverpool didn't even know what league we were in.

The mighty Bristol City eh??

I thought too their fans in the south stand were having a right go at their own players!!!

Was awesome to watch opponents defence panic, underhit back passes and misread each other.

That's usually us!

Orients confidence is right down you can see.

Be surprised if they go up.

I have been as critical as many.

He played very well tonight and it was a really well timed header for the goal.

Just been reading their forum, obviously not a happy bunch, "well beaten by a bottom 4 team" was one comment I particularly liked.

Great result.

There must be loads who have been on there all night judging by the empty seats....

You went to Carlisle, but you have forgotten the score. We won 4-2

:laugh:

Got my Carlisle visits muddled .

Put it this way I have seen us only ever win up there!

What, like some of ours did to el-abd v coventry.

We aren't third and promotion chasing.

I expected a lot better from them to be honest.

Also there was still loads of time after Flints goal and the Orient seemed to have no urgency about them at all.

They just sort of gave up.

They made no noise at all other than on their goal and to get Moore carded for time wasting.

They hurled abuse at their own keeper on Flints goal then started walking out, hence the fire drill chant, which I enjoyed!

So glad Orient ruined my new years day now!! ******* brilliant!! Poxy little ground anyway....

Think of the Dolman stand exit x 10 and that's what happened on the third goal.

Sh"t fans. Abused their keeper too.

Just got back to the car.

Last time I saw City win away it was 3-1.

People said I was mad to go to Carlisle.

People said I was mad to go to Leyton.

Well if this is madness, sign me up.

Such a weak concede.

We were bollocksing around as we do then we stood off them and allowed a shot.

I think Moore should have caught it or at least parried it out and instead he sort of hit his forearm rebounded in the middle of the six yard box and their no 9 beat Osbourme to it.

Really weak goal.

That's given them some impetus.

Half time came when we needed but this referee is very picky.

We need to be careful especially Ed Abd and Flint because he's giving their fall overs.

Warning for 2nd half.

This is surreal.

Orient fans are stunned in their seats...

Tell you what this is a sh1thole

To be fair it's only half hour from my office but fair play to those who join me from Bristol.

Hope we give a decent account of ourselves.

On my way down M11 now.

Cold and dry night. Not expecting any points, just hope we have a good go.

OK. Potential bogey grounds

This morning Arsenal would have regarded Anfield as historically a decent ground for them.

Terrible comment? It's a point away.

After a loss at home though.

Going down going down going down.......

Errrrr, that'll be because he hasn't been for ages, wouldn't it? How could he have seen what the last guy was producing?

He saw Oldham home and Brentford home.

Both were piles of crap and hoofball football.

You remember how bad it was right?

And are the results significantly better?

Yes.

Sheffield Utd home to me was the lowest point reached in years in terms of football, atmosphere, result , everything.

Took my brother to Watford home and he hasn't been for ages (on account of serving in the Israeli Army!) and he noted the first 20 mins he saw better passing and football from City than he saw in any game under the last guy.

Strange Cotterill came with a reputation of hoofball. O'Driscoll came with a passing football reputation and it's Cotts who has actually brought the exciting football while the other guy brought shite.

I'm thrilled with a point today given where we were.

We would have been 4-0 down, with a stupid question..

And a long interview of sniffing and processes, structures etc and "getting it right".

God they were depressing days under him.

Cotterill's team has more fight yet it's the same players! Goes to show where the problem was.
