bexhill reds Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 At least we didn’t lose I guess, reasonably solid for the most part. Vyner, King and Massengo, Dasilva and Atkinson the stand out tonight. We looked more threatening when Conway came on, for me I’d start him over Semenyo right now, I wonder if teams have worked out a way to handle Semenyo. Quote Link to comment

Semenyo drifts too wide. Incoherent disjointed performance. What happened to the zippy, one touch high pressing game we played early on this season? Ask Pearson Quote Link to comment
The Journalist Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Was quite surprised by how content we seemed with a point, even just in body language and setting up when the ball was out of play. That’s not the Bristol City I thought we were developing into three games ago. 3 Quote Link to comment

Vyner good pretty much throughout. Well impressed with Vyner and Dasilva today 2 Quote Link to comment
ProfitInMyPocket Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Vyner, Atkinson, King and Conway only noteworthy shout-outs for me, rest weren't even in the game. If you were struggling to sleep, whack that on and you'd hit the hay in no time. Once teams set out to stifle the formation we play the players in, they don't drop back in and gain yards to get the ball and run at them, it is like statues - i'm just willing someone to go and get on the ball and do something but too many let the game pass them by tonight. Alex Scott would have a field-day with the amount Cov sat off. 1 Quote Link to comment
Engvall’s Splinter Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Another point on the board. We go again. 1 Quote Link to comment
The hand of RO'D Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Am I the only one that thought it was a pretty decent game by 2 sides trying to play football? Formations kind of cancelled each other out but I think it was far from a poor performance without anyone really putting a foot wrong. King had a decent game at stand in CB also. 4 1 Quote Link to comment

By far our best player and nights like tonight show it. For an hour we were without the two players most important to the way we play. 1 Quote Link to comment
Northern Red Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 It's almost as if we're a middling Championship side who are going to have good days and bad... Though obviously that's far too nuanced for the numpties who just scream and whine every time we don't win and/or play well. 7 Quote Link to comment
Tinmans Love Child Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 I remember when we drew with Wigan after a couple of losses it seemed like a poor result, but it's something to build on, and we need clean sheets to build on! Cov are in a false position as well having played less 3 Quote Link to comment

I don’t think they can handle Semenyo but pretty much nothing came off for him or anyone else tonight. Agree about Tommy. Still a clean sheet, à point and we go on to the next thrilling installment.

nickolas Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Im convinced my red button record is attrocious. Couldnt get there tonight so watched it on the telebox. I still cant remember seeing us win on red button! Quote Link to comment
bristol red Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 January window will hopefully see HNM and Antoine Semenyo moved on. They don’t want to be here.. If we can use money to keep Alex Scott and sort defence and midfield then will be worth it going forward. 1 3 Quote Link to comment

Jerseybean Posted October 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Overall that was disappointing and frustrating. First time this season we have failed to score. We were too slow and cautious throughout and lacked ideas and quality. Coventry certainly created the more clear-cut scoring opportunities so perhaps we should be relieved with a point. For me Rob, Jay, Zak and Han-Noah were decent and Tommy provided a spark when he came on. In a nutshell IMO we didn’t do anywhere enough to win a home game and didn’t play with an urgency. For large parts we looked like we preferred not to lose the game rather than driving forward to win it. Last season I suspect we would have lost that 1-0. Quote Link to comment

old_eastender Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 0-0 fair result. A few lessons from tonight... Scott is so key to linking up midfield and attack, think Semenyo kept coming too deep for the ball because he was getting no service further forward. Conway needs to start, his positioning in the box is better than any other of our forwards and we missed his closing down too. Sykes needs to be dropped or tried as the ACM in place of Weimann. Weimann for the 4th match running looked pretty ineffective. Like against QPR Sykes saw plenty of the ball out wide but did not deliver a single decent cross. Williams was mostly gash (again). Finally thought Vyner, Atkinson and King all did well, and King at CB for more than half the game after Naismith off injured. Bents too with crucial save when called upon. Quote Link to comment
BCFCGav Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Our crossing will be the death of me. So many good positions wasted again. Give Pring a go, what does the lad have to do. 1 Quote Link to comment
Dan Robin Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 In the 2nd half we attacked more than them but they were more dangerous. Not a great result but a fair one. Positives: clean sheet and a point in the bag. Negatives: steps backwards in our attacking play and Kal's injury. Quote Link to comment

One probably based on the lack of contract signature, but he still puts the effort it, and Semenyo, think you are wrong there Quote Link to comment
ashton_fan Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) Just goes to show our lack of strength in depth in the squad means promotion a pipe dream, we'll probably get a few good performances like at Blackburn but will end up around mid-table. Missed Scott badly, Conway made a difference when he came on. Edited October 4, 2022 by ashton_fan Quote Link to comment

And it was good to see us make sure we didn’t lose it if we couldn’t win it. I do think our body language could’ve been better in the last 20 minutes, though. We looked too comfortable with a 0-0 draw and I don’t think we should ever be that really. With Scott and James both out and Naismith injured, though, no real qualms with the performance. Just lacked any cutting edge, which you can’t say has happened often this season. 2 Quote Link to comment
RedRock Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 9 (nine) corners. I’m that old, I can remember when I used to get excited when we awarded a corner. 1 Quote Link to comment
Johnr1986 Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Few positives tonight, Stops the losing run, Scott available next game, Vyner was decent . Would definitely like to see changes next game though we lacked any real threat tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment

If you think he isn’t then you haven’t got a bloody clue what you’re watching. He took up intelligent positions all game , finding pockets of space . He wasn’t getting picked out 8 Quote Link to comment
