Have City ever beaten a team on a 25 match unbeaten run before? Need I ask 

I'm sure we have helped a team on a losing 25-match run though :laugh:.

Same amount as me roughly but I would honestly say apart from the cotterill era , bit of Gary Johnson and some Danny wilson this is probably the highest standard consistently we have played at , if you remember we have had some pretty dark days , it’s not great at the moment but I do see a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel , 7-1 away to Northampton , 6-1 at home to wolves 5-0 away to Blackpool losing 1-0 at home to palace who were on a 19 game without a win run being totally dominated for a period by the gas oh and yes the cherry on the cake the pulis era , so perhaps things at all bad at the moment .

How could you forget "O" Dismal :laugh:.

TFFT! Get in!!!

Not again, please.

Gas now 2 down.

To quote Matt Nation in "My favourite year" A City away win was never complete unless it coincided with a Rovers home defeat.

Meanwhile, Saints, City's next opponents, are losing 2-0 at home to Huddersfield.

 

2-2 now let's hope we don't do the same.

I'm genuinely worrying that we need third... and fourth...

I think if we were two down most of us would think we had lost the game, by rights we should be thinking we were going to win today but history has told us that's rarely the case.

The next goal is very important for us game over for them our usual nail biting.

Starting for U21's tomorrow, let's hope it all goes well and they available for 1st team action soon.

More to come too.

 

I think as a club we are due a bit of luck on the injury front, it would be nice to have a settled team for the first time in God knows when, potentially we have a good squad it's just that we so rarely get to see them play together. I don't know if it's because we are closer to it but it does seem we have more than our fair share of bad luck where injuries are concerned.

Maybe next season they’ll do half season tickets, for the first half of the season. Then we can decide in January whether to buy the other half.

That's not as daft as it sounds is it when you think about it worth a try at least, the people who really love the club probably would renew anyway and it might tempt a few into giving us a try.

Well played Bristol, that was a great showing, your team gave us a good go.

Your fans were great tonight, better than most of the Premier League rabble we get.

We lacked quality and nearly paid the price.

I had perfect view of the goal line attempt, heart definitely in my mouth.

Another time, that tie would have been yours.

Our goalie pulled out a banger of a game. 

Best of luck for the rest of the season. Definitely on my list of "must do" away days.

It's Bristol City, but thank you for your kind words, we have heard what you say too many times though.

yep kind of, season is never over for me until 53 reached and cant finish 6th.

Joking aside no more than 3 wins or a combination of wins and a few draws to get to 47 points should see us safe, surely even we can't f it up, can we?

need 5 more wins to stay up

53 points! I take it you are joking.

Stream 55 Live Streaming (cricfree.live) There is a way of getting the sound by clicking on the game going to the top to get rid of the ad then clicking back on the game until the full screen and sound bar appear in the bottom right corner, keep persevering.

After QPR and Huddersfield won today, we are sitting just 10 pts clear of a relegation place. 

Given our next game is Southampton, that gap could well be less ahead of what could be a key game home to QPR.

Can't imagine we would have had to worry about being drawn into a relegation scrap had Pearson stayed...

 

My God, I bet you could not wait to post, so if we were the same number of points from making the playoffs would it mean we should all prepare to be possibly booking tickets to Wembley? thought not.

Another thread descends into personal abuse! 
 

A symptom of the current **** wittery at this club. 
 

For the record. We were shit with no attacking threat and an inability to pass it successfully to each other LET ALONE forward. 
 

This has nothing to do with who they are or payments from the premier league we were just awful

 

 

I've said it in past postings there are clubs we seem to already have lost to before we have even kicked off, Wolves are another club like Leeds where we seem to run up the white flag of surrender, no matter what their form is at the time we play them you just know they will beat us, we gave Leeds way too much respect last night hence the title of my posting.

Sending good wishes to your wife and you mate.

As a City fan, the day you need to worry about being embarrassed by any sort of comparison from those ***** chirping on is a very distant one from here.

All the best.

Thank you for your good wishes, I'm sorry if I came on a bit strong in my post but that's just how I felt at the time, of course, I gave them back as good as I got.

In other times a performance like that would have raised comments of the manager losing the dressing room. Manning seems to have got a team in his own image, rabbits in headlights comes to mind. He and they seemed scared and out of their depth tonight.
As someone else said it was the most comfortable 1-0 that you will ever see. There was clearly a massive gulf between the teams but we could have at least tried to put up some kind of fight. 
 

I don’t doubt, as others have said that the likes of James, King, Williams and probably Wells will not be with us next season but where will be the experienced players to lead the team ? Tonight we were like a rudderless ship without any direction on the field or off it. It was though only 1-0 so there was always the chance that we could have sneaked an undeserved leveller. Unfortunately it seems our players failed to realise that you have to get the ball in to the opposition’s box to score. Our free-kick that almost led to a Leeds goal summed up the night. Any team can turn up for a cup match but anyone that thinks a a few signings for the future will bring us a team that can be consistent and challenge for the top six next season is sadly deluded.

Well said I tried to say the same thing in my earlier post, but a certain poster who names himself after a Leeds player with no front teeth took it upon himself to criticise me for having the audacity to agree with you.

So you watched the game in a pub with gas rather than being here,couldn’t care less if you have supported city for 1 year or a 100 years because you clearly don’t know how football works,Were West Ham motivated to beat us or are Leeds better than us,you know the answer and while you mull it over your pint with the scummers ask how big the gap is 

You Know nothing about me at all, well let me say one thing, I was not at the ground tonight because my wife has had a stroke and needs me to be at her side, I rarely go out and leave her but she insisted I go out to meet some friends to watch the game, the fact some people were there (Gas) wanting us to lose is irrelevant, and two teams in the same division should have meant we should have been at least competitive, were we? I was embarrassed and I'm not afraid to say it. 

Need I say more? look I did not bother posting for a couple of hours to let the blood pressure subside, but what can I say? I, unfortunately, watched the game in front of about 6 Gasheads in the Duke who had come to watch us hopefully lose and well we certainly didn't disappoint them, we did not have a meaningful attack or attempt on goal, as the post says embarrassing, seldom in my 56 years of watching City have I EVER seen us so comprehensively outplayed in every department from the first kick to the final whistle, how the hell did we go from being deserved winners against West Ham to being outplayed by a team in the same division?
