If we carry on like this Major Isewater will be  having a fire sale of squeeky bum oil before too long!

.....but not just yet!

If we keep conceding late he will be able to put  the price up!!

[Nogbad the Bad]

Wouldn't be City without some tension in the final minutes. 

Nevertheless 3 massively deserved points and a superb performance City.

They’ll be gutted to have conceded that goal late on as we defended really well besides that. Great win though. 

Yes their goal was a bit of quick anticipation from Brereton Diaz, far too quick for Sykes to react to. 
 

oddly we lost our momentum when Semenyo came on…

[George Rs]

Deserved win, shouldn’t have been as close as it was but heyho. Proved we can still score left right and centre against the better teams in the league. If we sure up our defence (hopefully Kalas helps with that) and we keep players fit the sky’s the limit I say.

Really annoying that yet again we were not able in the final 15 minutes to gain possession and push them back. 

We came close today when with 5 mins to go, Weimann shot wide. As the commentator said, if that had gone in, the game would be over.

Nige and his entertainers.

In control looking dominating, upset with the 2 goals.  Are own errors again. 

[Jerseybean]

Great team performance, excellent away win, superb support, the only shame being we conceded two poor goals.

What I enjoyed most was the football we played throughout, it was composed, neat and effective, rarely were we sloppy on or off the ball, well done NP and all concerned, what a joy to be a City fan at the moment.

Yes, really should have put that away. A score line which would have accurately reflected the game

Great result! Sounded like a quality performance! 

Well done boys! 

Some of the best attacking football I've seen away from home for years. Blackburn could have been blown away in the first half.

Got to give credit to Blackburn for their 2nd, nice hold up play and Diaz cutting across. In fairness he didn’t do all that much during the game really.

[Gazred]

Should of been more convincing but a good away performance.

We look very tidy and capable of competing with anyone right now.

Yes 1-4 would have been a good reflection, and AW should have scored really.

[cidered abroad]

City are the only club in the top nine who have not played in the Prem!

We are by no means the finished article BUT........

COYREDS.

Im starting to think we might need to tie him down for longer soon

You're right and Dolan made a huge difference for me. Naismith mistimed his tackle and Dolan was in, with Brereton Diaz rolling the City defender. 

[Ivorguy]

At last I do believe we are coming out of the recent bad times

Shows what a good manager and CEO working in unison can achieve.

Think we are beginning to build a good team, with some true stars. Conway is a revelation

Don’t want to be negative but a lot of Rovers fans think they’re relegation fodder & not a team that’s difficult to beat https://www.brfcs.com/forums/topic/36330-v-bristol-city-h-3922/page/16/

Proud of the boys tonight. If we could tighten up we would make playoffs.

Some of the games last 20 we have looked comfortable though Luton even with only 10 men,
