Any goal description for the last one, guys?

I'm in the office and only following the game via Otib.

I've got Sky Sports News on.

The description was 'volley, one to watch later on'.

So it sounded like a good strike. No idea if it was as a result of poor play on our part though.

We are not taking our chances . We just need a goal to get our confidence back .

Unfortunately we are losing confidence by conceding goals early in games. This puts more pressure on us getting goals at the other end and it becomes a vicious circle.

Once again our inability to get going from the start of a game will be our undoing I fear.

[Bristol Rob]

Burton are beating Preston away, which doesn't help my bet.

[Nogbad the Bad]

Patterson cross headed by Reid, Al Habsi saves, hits Reid again on the rebound and somehow clears the bar.

[iamalagerdrinker]

Reid missed a sitter.

They should be more like us chaps, only without the hair and dangly bits.

[Lanterne Rouge]

Albert puts Villa one up.

[Bristol Rob]

Albert has just scored to put Villa one up at home to Cardiff.

[petehinton]

We have no shape and no real style of play other than giving it to our wide men to cut inside. Same as the last 5 or 6 games. Need a formation change asap. 

[Ivorguy]

They really can't afford to lose today.  If they do it will prove very difficult to reinvigorate the season, and any transfers in January will be recruited less for a push towards playoffs this season and nearer to promotion next; instead it will be yet another relegation battle.

Oh dear how often have City promised  only in the last analysis to fail.

I can cope with City failure, after all I have had lots of practice, it's the hope that does me in.

Adomah just scored for villa

Don't be daft Rob it can't have been good play by the opposition, it must be because we are shit, get with the programme mate.

Ho hum. 

Will be another "great second half performance" but too late to salvage anything. 

[exAtyeoMax]

Can someone tell Adam B to switch his colleague's mic off, please…?

[1bristolcity]

Thought this would be another spineless defeat, but not in the first 15 minutes, Lee needs to watch out!

[Nogbad the Bad]

We're getting chances but too many falling to the likes of BR rather than Tammy.

That's one of our biggest problem we have just one 'consistent' goalscorer - we can't put our whole season on one 19 year olds shoulders.

A goal before half time and we have a chance, COYR!

[bristolcitysweden]

On a positive they are likely to switch off and we can have a say. Plus the ref owes us a pen.
