The Williams clip I can. I was interested in seeing the the Bristol City Twitter titled "Together" which as far as I know hasn't been posted here.

Watching clips like this and the one on the Bristol City Twitter titled "Together", where the team made successive challenges and blocks in the box to hold on to the lead vs Preston, to me are just as - if not more - satisfying as a wonder goal or insane piece of skill clip. It's the passion, desire and determination from the lads fighting for each other, the manager and the badge. 

It really does feel special more recently. More so than a squad I can recall in a long time. It's how I'd imagine I'd try and put my body on the line for the club I support - if in another life I played for City! Love it. Long may it continue. COYR

It would be awesome if someone could post that clip here for those of us that don't have twitter.

Dream scenario would be to see Shrewsbury come up  with a late run (unlikely but 6 wins on the bounce), ideally beating Ipswich in the playoffs.

Thanks very much for this… twitter is the main route of engagement for the FPA via @bcfc_fpa so please follow there also - youtube is used to host longer content now and again to then link on twitter

Please bear in mind that for those of us who don't use Twitter, the YouTube channel will be the primary source of content.

Thanks for your efforts.

I feel the BCFC Former Players Association channel needs some more subscribers, there are some great interviews on there, and currently they only have 124 subscribers, pitiful, get involved people!!

Done. Thanks for pointing this out. 170 subscribers now. Good work!

You do not catch a ball when entering a line. The keeper should punch it. Why because of the variables and the result underlines it.

If Kalas doesn't intervene it's an easy catch. To say he should punch it with no opposition players are anywhere near is ludicrous.

Runners where not tracked and ball watching. The cross was superb.

Yep, so the fault of the defence and not MOL.

Starts compact and in a line, and leaves because of the Keeper going. 

The shape was fine v a straight ball until the keeper intervenes. 

Absolute nonsense. See 1960maan's photo posted a couple of posts below. Kalas and Martin were always going to get in each other's way. Scott might have too if he hadn't reacted to MOL's shout.

See above

I appreciate that there are trolls that you all feel need to be put in their place, but I'm just not sure that this is the appropriate place to do it.

Anyway, congratulations Raphael. If you keep up the hard work you have obviously been putting in, I look forward to seeing you in the first team. .

I know it's highly unlikely, but (in my best Kevin Keegan voice) I'd love it, just love it, if United won tonight and went above the scousers. I detest Liverpool with an absolute passion.

On a side note, have hyphenated surnames become more common in society?

As someone with a hyphenated (double-barreled in my day) surname, it's a relief not to be so odd these days. My great-grandad died leaving a widow and one son. When my great-grandma remarried and he was adopted by his step dad, my grandfather took both names. People assumed that I was posh or had delusions of grandeur. I'm not and I don't. It's just a bleeding name.

via Newcastle whilst missing the actual game, isn't it?

Can trump that find a decent IPTV supplier and you can have every City game plus just about every other TV channel in existence for about £60 a year. 

Would you be able to recommend a good one?

Why are so many people getting stressed about Lee Johnson and Mark Ashton? They’ve gone. You can’t go through life looking backwards

Actually, you could, but you'd likely have a stiff neck and bump into a lot of things.

I think this new little ground of York's looks quite tidy. They'd need to put some green seats in next to the red for a proper colour test. 

There are green seats next to the red, :laugh:.

The forwards will rightly get the plaudits today, but my MoM was Klose. Masterful performance. We need to get him signed. 

Agreed. And when you consider how well the forwards played, that's really saying something.

Way better than the average ref we've had this season.

I've posted this in its own thread, but WTF, I'll post it here too.

Yes. 

Go to the normal RobinsTV site. Scroll down to "Full Games".

Games go up a day or two after they happen.

Awesome. Thanks for that. Subscription incoming.

In a 9 team South league. and a 8 team North league.........how do we end up playing 24 games?   Can someone please explain?                  

If I understood correctly, we play the other 8 teams in our league twice and the 8 teams in the north league once.

Is it possible to watch games the following day "as live"? Being in a substantially different time zone, any game that kicks off after 3pm is simply too late for me to watch at the time.
