Super Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Everyone around me blaming the ref, casually ignoring that we played on for two minutes Absolutely no idea what we were doing, we are so brainless at times. 1 Quote Link to comment
PHILINFRANCE Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) He didn't touch the Leeds player, the Leeds player pushed it past him and dived to the floor. I've watched it 20 times now and it was 100% never a penalty. So you can't blame the keeper. Out of curiosity, how and where have you 'watched' this? Sorry, I have just seen you are watching Sky.

TRL Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 don't make the signings needed, throw away promotion momentum heads drop then play catch up for the rest of the season.. all points to a woeful attempt at getting players in.... Not surprised at all at what is currently happening Quote Link to comment
YorkshireSection Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I don't think we are out of place in this division at all, I think we are as good as any team in the division and we should be competing up the top end. But we aint going to win ANY games if we continue to make the same naive mistakes every game and fail to take simple chances. I'm fed up of hearing from SC and pundits how well we've played - we can't win games with such naive tactics and poor finishing. Adam Baker just said "all they have to do is keep playing as they are". That sums it up for me - ignore the fact that we will concede again on the break. AND THERE WE ARE....................0-2 Its so so predictable. We are in big trouble. I don't know how Adam Baker has a job in any form of media, he may actually be made out of wood. 1 Quote Link to comment
BRISTOL86 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Burns and Reid on now. We'll be fine. Quote Link to comment
Esmond Million's Bung Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Absolutely no idea what we were doing, we are so brainless at times. Glad you're here Super, I found you a present. 1 Quote Link to comment
Bris Red Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Game over with 35 minutes remaining? Hope we can rally and get back into it but i cant see it personally. Confidence amongst the group must be fairly low ATM. Quote Link to comment
Murraysrightplum Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Havana... Think the decision is made for the next match thread. How about "bottom of the league Vs..." Update when we climb the table Quote Link to comment
cityexile Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 BBC Sport's Nabil Hassan at Ashton Gate: "Totally naive defending from Bristol City and now they've got a mountain to climb. Classic smash and grab this from Leeds United." Quote Link to comment
MaverickTheBritish Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 What has happened to make our previously solid defense so leaky all of a sudden? Quote Link to comment
BS4 on Tour... Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 What does over react mean? What i am actually allowed to say? Whatever you want mate, just don't want people to start saying we are going down etc, cos it's August... Quote Link to comment
BCFC You Reds! Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 gray is like no thank you ha how are we playing this system, it has clearly ran it's course Quote Link to comment

Portland Bill Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Just saw the goal on SSN and it's dreadful defending. So easy for Wood to cut inside in the box and whip it into the corner, no pressure from our back line at all. Just shocking... It was also 4 on 3 in Leeds favour as well, we are certainly proving how naive we are. Quote Link to comment
054123 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Absolutely need to change the system... Too many counter attacks. Too what??? There is no other system. Did people not watch us last season? Was everyone blind to it? Quote Link to comment
OneManMob Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Punishment for the summer we've had. As I've said before. Middlesbrough next. Adapt or die. 3-5-2 was never going to work in the Championship Quote Link to comment

Chairman Mao Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 5-3-2 is clearly hopeless at this level 4-3-2-1 anyone? Quote Link to comment
LegionOfBrad Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 What has happened to make our previously solid defense so leaky all of a sudden? Playing better teams. Quote Link to comment
ChippenhamRed Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 What has happened to make our previously solid defense so leaky all of a sudden? Simple - higher quality opposition Quote Link to comment
BRISTOL86 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Too what??? There is no other system. Did people not watch us last season? Was everyone blind to it? The standard is incomparable. Have you watched us at all this season? We look like conceding every time we lose the ball at the moment. Quote Link to comment
Portland Bill Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Out of curiosity, how and where have you 'watched' this? Sky sports news. Quote Link to comment
BCFC Jordan Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Adapt or die. 3-5-2 was never going to work in the Championship I think it can. It's just all the momentum we had was completely eradicated after an inexcusable summer transfer window. The happy clappers refused to acknowledge it, but it was there for all to see. 3 Quote Link to comment
Kingswoodactor Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I thought one of our strengths last season was actually to let the other team have the majority of the ball, soak up pressure ourselves and then destroy them on the counter? Just like we did against Peterborough away and Swindon at home. Why are we NOT doing that in the Championship? Quote Link to comment
OneManMob Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Simple - higher quality opposition This. We were hit on the counter alot last season just the strikers we were up against were shit/slow 1 Quote Link to comment
BRISTOL86 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Too what??? There is no other system. Did people not watch us last season? Was everyone blind to it? There is no other system? What a ridiculous comment. There's a reason 99% of teams play with a back 4. Quote Link to comment
And Its Smith Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Desperately need to forget the idea of playing with a back 3 at this level. Why? Quote Link to comment
Spike Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Starting to feel like we're back to the "we'll never see a clean sheet again" times. I know it's going to be considered "too soon" to give up on 3-5-2 but even with our amazing season last season it looked like it had it's weaknesses at times and now we've taken a step up and are against much better quality. I'm worried this formation and lack of quality in the middle actually could potentially see us get relegated if it's not addressed, not to mention we could do with a CB who will command the back line and lead.
