Who's marking Ince?

Has he even been fouled once? 

You have to get near him.

Yeah, because it isn't true...

 

Disgraceful from the club yet again.

And there we have it. The quicker people wake the **** up to what is happening the better. Everyone pull your head out of the sand. 

[BobBobSuperBob]

Sorry Frankie - not blaming you for everything tonight 

 

but as I said a while back

Lovely Fella but not good enough for me

[Shtanley]

Cotts needs a plan C

[Unan]

People are reacting like we were likely winners before the game, for the love of god what were you expecting tonight?

[Kingswoodactor]

Why not stick to our guns and build on the display from the weekend? IMO we have made too many changes tonight from Saturday, and people who say this game doesn't matter are forgetting about goal difference, which could prove crucial come May. 

This could easily end up 4-0, when we could have gone for it a bit more and lost 2-0 or 3-1 etc. 

Losing in this way is more damaging to our next two home games than if we had lost approaching the Derby game in our normal manner. 

Got this one wrong tonight Cotts. 

EDIT: Just one minute after I posted, we did indeed go 4-0 down. FML.

Seeing as they spent nearly £22m this season alone, I seriously doubt that.

I obviously meant before they were promoted!

I take it you're talking about the manager?

Yes, the club is to blame for tonight.

Jesus wept.

[Super]

Shambles.

[CotswoldRed]

Ince isn't this good against anyone else. Remember that.

If we bring nobody in next month we are going down.

Is that so bad really? Bar the obvious huge stadium problem, the possible desire of a lot of our players to leave - Freeman, Kodjia (Thus losing our main, and pretty much only, goalscorer), Bryan, Williams, and the possibilty of having to play Swindon next season....

We should have appointed Eddie Howe instead of McInness in the first place

Good shout. any other beautiful pearls of hindsight wisdom you'd like to share with us?

[bristolcitysweden]

A pity but I believe Cotts will be sacked tonight. SL was at Hudds and he is at Derby tonight. Probably the best so that we can get a fresh start for christmas  

[EstoniaTallinnRed]

What chance in the January window now of getting any decent players,  We will struggle all season unless SC, if he is still there, can get some good loan signings. It will be an interesting interview with SL on RB 13.00 on Saturday.   Little coming on.

[BRISTOL86]

Frankie knows he left Derby, right?

[Northern Red]

Embarrassing.

And I don't just mean the score.

[Lack of Action Man]

Knew I should've hibernated this winter.

He was good enough on Saturday.

[Super]

Bring back Ayling!

[Major Isewater]

Most weeks it's like a cup match where City are the underdogs . We just lack a bit of quality , A player like Ince to turn a game .

[TheCulturalBomb]

Pfft.. Bit depressing this result. The League one winners who played flowing attacking football, incredible on the counter and dominating in possession, vanished. January transfer window, need to spend millions... Assuming players will actually want to join us, like bloody lepers we are. 

 

[Londoner]

SC set the tone with selection tonight.

No coincidence that Lansdown was in the crowd at Huddersfield?

Despite Saturday's result SC back under pressure.

Have a look at Derby scorelines since August. Avoiding a drubbing wasn't too much to expect.

Wilbs on now, why are our subs always so late?

Agree but sometimes not good enough for a keeper

With this line-up Cotts will be proved to be either

a) a tactical genius

b) a right tit

My money is on b) !

 

and the answer is confirmed.
