Desperately need three signings who can go straight into team. Chances of that happening is probably zero

This is the sort of game, if we consider ourselves play off contenders, where we need to grind out a result

This is all so City, whoever is the manager Come on Manning show us what you can do

Szmodics now on 15/16 goals for Blackburn Just saying

Shows our lack of quality depth - again

Clearly Manning is managing the squad at his disposal. Think good decision re the dropped/rested trio.

No, missed the train connection at Reading. Sod’s Law!

Am I mistaken or was there footage of our Cup Final?

Nothing much Manning can do to liven things up. Try Yeboah and tell him this his big chance

As they say you an only influence the match you are playing. Let’s have a goal, City - please. I promise to eat all the remaining sprouts if you do

Remember Tanner was not brought in to play regular first team football. This is a question of needs must

This is a game in which Conway must prove he’s the answer, But what the question is eludes me

Good shout

Key word, ‘almost’

Gone into the nest egg?

I am not convinced Wells can be used as a lone striker. We desperately need striker reinforcements

Overall a competent first half against a wounded team up for the match

Another family member, Wally’s grandson, is the long serving manager of Worthing fc. A very effective manager in non league. A good recruiter of quality players. Always puzzled me that we seem to have no contact with him and his set up. They are only two divisions behind you know who., and doing well.

Contrary to views expressed, I think this could prove a potential elephant trap for us. continuing animal theme, Birmingham and Rooney are wounded beasts and we know how that can turn out I trust Manning to get the lads’ heads straight before ko. A fourth victory in a row would be awesome, but a draw giving us the title undefeated in four would be almost equally acceptable to me.

This is great. Congratulations to head coach, his assistants, and the players. Well done you men

Wonderful. We may be at the start of something rather incredible. Three signings in window and cynics like me will truly believe. All credit to Manning for building so quickly on what he found here, and in the middle of the season too.

Not sure but think it was just before Boer War. I should remember because I was at Barrow on that very day.

Oh, you are all so young. MikeThresher was one of our best LBs.

I feel they have backed themselves into a cul de sac with Bristol Sport

Many thanks to all who post on Otib that keeps people like me, living a long way off, in touch with all the news and gossip from Ashton Gate. i wish everyone a Happy Christmas and a great New Year for all of us and for City
