Why?

Ask yourself this.
You’re the director at a very high end academy, in the second tier of English football.  With best set up outside the premier league.  The academy is starting to turn out players for the 1st team with potential to go on to promise land.  Yes , you don’t have to up sticks and move your family to a different part of the country.  Although, You did not leave Bristol City as a player, when you could of easily played for mid to bottom end premier league team.

Id be shocked if he took the role at FGR.

Because Pearson can't adapt. He would.have to change the way we play if he put an actual centre back there 

Squad hasn’t got plan b

No chance.

Better team than us today.  As others have said best team so far.  We are good enough to compete for playoff place.  We might run out steam come the end. Very promising signs.  Although a very dominant display from Burnley we did have chances enough for a point.

The corner I will give you - that was bad defending. The other 2 goals conceded were individual errors and that's more down to mentality than anything else. 

Over confident, switching off

Norwich stats overinflated by a few break aways at the end.

Naismith still the weak link at times ….

We need someone to drop when he goes that’s it.

It’s coming…

Yep - Easier to work on decision making, and cutting out errors than finding a impactive style of play and attacking threat  Lew

 

We could go back to centre halves kicking it into the stands or as far down the pitch as possible in a desperate attempt to keep a clean sheet , and lose our football and threat

I know which I prefer !

( And which has more chance of success)

Time to play and time to keep it simple.  

Same the red bottom on sky giving me Cov match commentary 

They didn’t score cause there better we gave them the lead. Better team and will go on to win.

Apparently Dougie Freedman (palace) was at Ewood on Saturday watching Antoine.

He could be watching anyone of 5 players from both sides.

Pearson confirmed pretty much the opposite. Just didn’t fit into his plans, these things happen. 

Maybe so in public.

Bit late to the thread but it has to have been a Wells goal. The whistle went before Naismith put it in the net.

The goal line tech clearly shows Wells scored

We played so well today. For 70 minutes. We made Blackburn look ordinary for large parts of the game. Shame we let them score twice. The big test is coming: Norwich and Burnley away in the same week. Ludicrous schedule. Burnley have a neat little trip to Preston on the Tuesday; we play at Norwich on the Wednesday. Then we play at Burnley on Saturday. Nonsense schedule. How is that any way fair? Burnley are even home to Norwich on the previous Friday night. Nice spacing out for the relegated PL teams, computer.

I’m not worried.  TBH.

Got to give credit to Blackburn for their 2nd, nice hold up play and Diaz cutting across. In fairness he didn’t do all that much during the game really.

Missed tackle, and not holding up the ball prior.  But yeah nice play for the goal.

That was nearly the perfect away performance.  It’s coming…..

In control looking dominating, upset with the 2 goals.  Are own errors again. 

Top player made a couple of mistakes.  He’ll improve.

Who, the $#ck wants to move at the moment?

Momentum..

He’s the difference.  

Best of luck NB.

There are many things that have derailed our hard fought momentum in the past and stopped us from achieving just as when it looked we might, one of those is the sale of key assets. I hope we can see out this last week of the window with battened down hatches. The squad genuinely feels poised to kick on, but at the same time so finely balanced. Losing a Scott, Semenyo or Weimann could be the difference between a successful season and a mediocre one. 

The only one we should sale is Semenyo,  if it’s for the right money.  Yes he offers a lot but,  We’ve played well and scored without him. Plus he’s had an injury problem two seasons on the bounce now.
