longyears Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Not all doom and gloom but little Lee talks a good game like some before him but at the end of the day goals and points are all that matter. Not bad signings so far but not really very good either. We will probably avoid the drop ( IMO ) but dream on if you think we will achieve anything else as we have a porous defence most weeks and a loan scoring most of our goals. Too many players not really Championship standard and sadly most of them never will be ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozo Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Forgetting stats, I think our results have shown two things: 1. We have weaknesses, and 2. We have big potential. Deal with 1 and 2 could take off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. Firstly, who said I was comparing Johnson's and Cotterill's teams at the same stage of the season? Secondly, I see how you are trying to put a positive spin on it. Another way of looking at it is that we've played one of last year's play-off teams and lost. Another one, Derby, have been poor this season. Aston Villa are on one of the biggest downers in the club's history. And they could still have been 4-0 up at half-time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walsheys step over Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Defo better than last year but can't afford to drop to many more points when dominating games i.e. Rotherham & Sheffield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Derby have been poor so far this season but they have some top players , they can bring on Ince as a sub ! I'm pretty sure they'll finish top six .

stogursey red Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 No doom and gloom for me, we out played Derby for much of the match, they never looked like scoreing until we went 2 at the back, there goal in the first half was a one off we will not see a mistake like that again this season, Lee changed it well got the best out off our attacking players, and you have to remember that if Tammy doesn't catch the pitch before the ball we are winning that game 2 1 we are getting better and the wins will come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAman08 Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Personally I can't see why all the doom and gloom. We've played 5 of the most fancied sides in the division out of 8 games. Arguably, our worst result is an away draw to Rotherham. Take into account we signed about 12 new first team players and that takes time to gel, I think we've been extremely good. All our lost points have been our mistakes not being the lesser team. So we know we can compete with anyone so why are we just good enough to avoid the drop? Doesn't make sense. We've had so much against us to start the year and we've come out of our toughest 8 game stretch with half the points. That's an awesome return and it's looking up for us. I personally think we can push top 6 if we get it together but I can't see 12 better teams than us. A top half finish should be easily obtainable and think we are well on the way to that.

And they could still have been 4-0 up at half-time. But they weren't & we managed to turn things around to win 3-1, I would say those involved deserve great credit for being able to take a result from the game against a club with huge resources & who have tried using them!! As for Derby, another club with huge resources & a better than average playing staff. As have Sheffield Wednesday, Norwich & Newcastle. We have made huge strides in improving our playing staff & signing 13 players, mostly of a young age & are untried at Championship level plus a few that are untried in English football, it will take time before all of these players will come to terms with the standard of football as well as settling into new surroundings!! Really not sure what you're hoping for or expecting but I'd say everything is very encouraging to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolcitysweden Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 I'm 100 per cent sure Flint is still suffering from his cramp problem and needs an operation. Yes, he turns like a buss but not like one from the 1920's. Specially designed socks is nothing but total nuts from the club. Flint needs an operation!

Barrs Court Red Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 I think about 3 weak links. Those weak links will be the difference between top 10 and top 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roe Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Reality check.. we're a mid table/top half championship team that's quite entertaining to watch, has a lot of attacking and promising players and is steadily progressing into an established championship team after a nightmare start to last season. Compare it to Cotterill's side? How about you compare it to the hiding (and other 3 goal against defeat) we took from Derby last season? What an awful reality.
