What does Matt Withers think of LM now?

Hi Luke, I still back him but think he has got things wrong in the last two games in the way he got things right against Southampton. What do you think? 

Honestly didn’t know I said this. Thanks for the heads up. Happy drinking

Do you know what Conway was asked to do and are you able to confirm whether he did it? Whether you are there for every minute or not if you don’t know what the kid was asked to do then you are unable to say Nige is wrong. Effort is more than just running around. At the end of the day Nige can call it how he likes, you just don’t happen to agree with it.

Were you there? Did you see Conway do anything different when he plays down the middle than he normally does? And you’re right I don’t agree with it.

You don’t really call out players for being your version of piss-poor as that is subjective anyway. Lack of effort has to be called out every single time. You can’t have three subs coming on in a tight game and strolling about when people have travelled 3 hours to watch you.

I’m guessing some of the people defending the lads who put **** all in last night never travel three hours to watch us play. I would question whether some of them go to the Gate tbh as it’s such a bizarre take.

I was there as I have been for every minute and Conway couldn’t be accused of not putting in the effort. No problem calling out a lack of effort but also call out the quality when it’s poor. Weimann who I like was dreadful last night and yet stays on and is called out as performing by the Manager. Can’t have it both ways.

Energy and workrate from Weimann is unquestionable and a strange thing to call out - especially when those coming off the bench didn’t show much.

The bloke doesn’t stop - his ball ability, passing crossing etc definitely questionable at times but any manager would like him for the ground he covers. Any manager 

I get that Paul but tonight he was clearly the man to come off. Can’t question his work rate but he was poor tonight. He was as much to blame for the impact of Conway as Weimann was nowhere near as effective as Bell. Pearson got that charge wrong. Say the subs didn’t have the impact but to say what he said about the youngsters and not caring who they are is poor in my opinion. 

As a Christmas present for a dear friend I’m desperately searching for one of the Bristol City black bobble hats with Robins written in white writing and a red bobble!! Loads worn at the ground but long time out of stock in the shop.  Does anyone have one in A1 condition that they would sell? 

Zak was unlucky but by his own reaction probably felt he should have scored. For me legends are the Atyeo’s, Taintons, Sweeneys, Careys, Murray’s, Tinnions etc but Jacki is MY favourite player of all time.

Taking of podcasts, anyone listen to the 3 Peeps one lately? Matt’s continual use of the words “ a celeb” when referring to a celebration is Brent esq What’s that about?

Didn’t notice it was a common thing. Thanks for the pick up, I’ll watch out for it now. Cheers from the Brent Meister General

Patch and Math enjoyed their trip to Ewood Park, the sparkling performance and the three points.  They’re joined by Dr Dean Allen to review the game. 
 

Really enjoyed this. Alan Walsh is a true gentleman and City legend. What a top 10 singles chart that week. Some proper bangers

No I’ve got a team sheet but just shows Ainsley on the bench 

I’m trying to trace a player who made the subs bench against the Rovers on the 17 August 1988 in a 3-0 defeat at Twerton in the Gloucester Cup. All I know is that his name was Ainsley no idea if that is his first name or last name. Anyone?
