Top six, anyone?

That is my point, he is being picked because there is no one else

Remember Tanner had been bought by Nige for the future. He is playing because our lack of depth forces two managers to play him

Well LM will definitely now know what Nige was up against. You can train as much as you like, but the players then have to replicate on the pitch. You can bring subs on,only given they improve performances.

I guess Sykes taken off for an injury as a precaution

Weimann is finished at this level, imo. Bet we hang on to him next season tho, as he won’t raise funds and Lansdowns won’t release funds. Cotts era on repeat now

We really need to win, or else why change the manager

So much better to score before ht. just need to be extra careful at start of second half.

Well, that’s a shock

Seems we have started in our same old way. Bet Nige is pleased someone else can take the flak!

COYR. THREE POINTS PLEASE

Both mentioned by LM in interview re transfer window

No more injuries than others. We just have a smaller squad and that remains the fault of the Lansdowns

Disappointed with some of the comments on here after such a good performance. We all know we need reinforcements to move above mid table, and that we need more numbers - Nige recognised this, as clearly does LM too, with his references to a striker in January window, and the fact he only put 7 on the bench (perhaps that is the old Cotts messaging to the owners re numbers). I am more than content with tonight CTID

It was always going to be tough tonight, but this was a City team that we haven’t seen the likes of for some time Well done the lads and the coaches, but especially LM who has now given us hope again.

Here we go AGAIN. Naismith down injured

Coming up to Mehmeti and Cornick time Believe. A point, perhaps three, is still an option COYR

I am not enjoying Sky commentary

At least LM has seen the necessity of getting a goal scorer in transfer window. He has clearly set the team up well and the forward passing, wing play, and tackling all look good to me As.a great Nige fan, I am turning into a Manning fan as well. it is good to see City firing on all cylinders.

Is O’Leary clear which side he is playing for, because last two clearances have set in motion a Southampton attack

Shows how small a squad we have

I was/still am a huge fan of Nige, for what he did for this club, but in fairness I thought LM’s post match comments hit every right note. Indeed I have more confidence in him after the interview than before. COYR

The only claim I care to make is that I am always a true City fan, veering from depression to elation without a stop in between. That’s the real Bristol in me!

Great result that looked unlikely at 2-2 Trust LM will have learnt a great deal after that. Much needs to be done in January transfer window to see us secure place in play offs. But so far, in these earliest of days, so good.

Has a coach ever had such a short period of success? Are we in danger of losing our grip on mid table? Think all the boardroom shenanigans have finally caused me to crack
