What's with the hunting/post horn when then teams come out, is that the EFL musical branding? Surely nothing to do with City!

No idea. But its bloody awful and tinpot!

Don’t knock the officials (they were ******* awful by the way, especially the Lino in front of the dolman) or you’ll have @Portland Bill climbing all over you. Of course he’ll have only “watched” it on the radio as he’s turned his back on the club

3 times something happened no more than 2 yards from that lino and he looked at the referee for guidance on what to give. Absolute joke. We were shite. He was shitter.
But, we werent getting anything from that game the minute the final whistle went on Tuesday night!!!

Trouble is we have to celebrate the odd thing while we're all still alive

. True. Plus im guessing 3/4 of people in the ground werent even alive to know about 1974 so its verging on completely pointless. 

Other positive. I dont have to see that kit again. Embarrassingly tinpot to celebrate winning a game 50 years ago with a kit. Winning a league title, cup etc, absolutely. But we are very tinpot tbf!

Can’t believe Tanner got dropped 

Unbelievable decision. I know he wants to see McCrorie play but theres no way Tanner deserved that. Atleast hes had a rest. Scandalous if hes not in the team next week. 

How Tanner can not be picked was beyond me. Granted he coukdve been due a rest but that was potentially an awful pick. 
How team well off it. We miss Pring’s energy. Roberts im not so sure about but all in everyone was slow and ponderous. 
And we ALL knew we’d lose today!!!

Yep. The pitch is definitely ####ed. Best play on the pristine park outside instead i reckon!?!

Pring is all action and great to watch but his final ball isn't very good.i actually thought Roberts gave us a much better attack down the left

Pretty much any of our players’ final balls are terrible, theres noone with real consistent quality.

Good player strong competition at left back.

And a potential ( when injuries occur ) to play behind Pring with Pring further forward. Finally looking like we have decent squad numbers. 

Decent. But hes no Cam Pring! Not a bad backup though!

Result = Win & 3pts 

Well done LM & the boys

Absolutely!

However, why the need to switch to the back 3 we all know doesnt work is beyond me. 

8 minutes ago, INCRED said:

If stays 2-0 then it worked!

Maybe it gives us that extra body in midfield screening the width of the pitch as we don’t exactly need more goals 

Wrong!

Invites pressure in a game we were under no pressure. 

Why does it feel like in Manning we have a bit of LJ? Silly tinkering of formations. 
4 at the back working fine then switches back to a 3 and leaves us wide open in wide areas. 
Almost trying to be too clever imo.

Low in confidence, probably feeling the pressure especially when with the competition for places up front. Needs a goal

Absolutely. Shame really. Amazing what a goal might do but defo struggling.

Totally lacking confidence.

Yep. One on one take your man on. No, lash it into the top of the stand.

Oh Sammy, the keepers on his ass and you hit it straight at him..

Weak mental game once again. GK was almost 18 yards out, loads of time to take it round him. Poor mental choices once again.

It is and he’s given one. And I think I’d concur with it.

Noone has to concur with anyone. Its a forum for opinion and discussion, not agreement. 

Just now, mozo said:

What is the reason that we didn't take our chances in your opinion?

Perhaps we lack quality?? I really like the way we are playing under Manning but this is way too many games weve not won whilst being the better team. Hopefully some extra additions in summer help with that.

If Cornick had missed this place would have gone into meltdown. 

This is also true.

Whheeyyyyyyy!!!! Welcome to a forum of open opinions!

Just now, cityexile said:

That is you take away from tonight. Seriously?

Nope. I take away we shouldve won and once again missed several chances to have won the game. 
My opinion on Bell is not swayed by a penalty. Hes not good enough and will never be. Simple as.

Weak penalty by a weak player 

Ah well. We can concentrate on the league and aiming for 12th place now 

Settle for 12th!!!

Weak player. Weak mentality. But hes academy so lets not slag him off!

Just now, RedRaw said:

Not having a dig but has max ever saved a penalty?

Dunno. But has Sam Bell ever scored one. Ffs.
