So he can completely obliterate our finances again so we can afford absolutely no one? Yeh. Good shout. 

He’d come in , sell Antoine , Scott and Tommy for 30 million claiming to have developed them

Hed then spend 48 million on 53 new punts and Marley Watkins clones

Lets do it !

Just a WUM… best to ignore I think

Nope , someone who is concerned at how we can be great one game and awful the next, but we don't bounce back. This is going to be 4 defeats and a draw from 5 games, 2 of which against opposition we REALLY need to be beating if we aren't going to be in a relagation scrap. 

[AppyDAZE]

Why would anyone who just wants to follow the Premier league matches be listening to radio commentary of Birmingham v Bristol City?

Is Ceefax down or something?

Sykes and Dasilva have both been v.poor today.  Someone else said earlier Sykes has pulled out of 2 50:50s today....I agree.  The first one he might've been clean through.

He’s clearly struggling(carrying a knock is my guess) so that’s down to Nige if he still thinks he’s a better option than Wilson 

[Malago]

Jay daSilva must spend hours and hours practicing over hitting crosses.  It certainly shows on match days.

[Lanterne Rouge]

In other news, Preston appear to have remembered how to score just in time for Wednesday..................................

This is next level shit

We've a squad lacking depth and are unsurprisingly struggling once the injuries kick in. It doesn't mean we are going to be in a relegation scrap any more than the win over Blackburn suddenly made us promotion favourites.

If nothing else, the last few games have been a REALLY good advert for Matty James...

unfair, he is technically very tidy, but not brave enough with the ball going forward and not strong enough at the back. Rather see Cam Pring given a chance.

Yep, the OTHER bogey team hot on the heels of this one ! 

[Midred]

Nice to see the ref hasn't forgotten his yellow card. They could have had a few bookings in the first half with simulating injuries and pushes in the back just as a city player was going to head the ball!

I blame you Pete for going too early on here a few weeks back just before Blackpool equalised

Surely that would depend on who replaced him wouldn’t it? 
I’m not a Nige out fan mind, just debating 

To me, I think that NP thinks he is bigger than the club, like he's doing us a favour by being here and he talks with such arrogance. When we are good, he laps it up, when we are shocking he takes no responsibility.

Sometimes it's not about who you get to replace a manager, it's about wondering if you're employing someone who actually is up for the fight, and isn't in the feeling that oh well, I'll retire when they sack me anyway.

He said earlier in the season, he nearly walked away from football, this is his last job. 

People always say he talks sense in his interviews, but he actually states the bleeding obvious and when things aren't good he's so depressive and that's got to have an impact on the players.

I had big hopes with NP, but for all he's had no budget to work with, I feel like we could get relegated and he wouldn't really care, he'll just retire. 

I am not saying press the panic button and sack him yet, but something has to give sooner rather than later. 

[bexhill reds]

Wiemann last season would have finished that…

Here we go! R Bristol guy going to cream his pants about another Man City goal.

Scott his usual headless tackle after Andi passes up first time shot

[ProfitInMyPocket]

Semenyo done alright pinning the defender and playing but Weimann should do much better to get the shot or pass off there.

[old_eastender]

Andi!  What a wasted opportunity, great play by Semenyo to play him in and he should hit it first time but doesn't and loses it.

[RedorDead BCFC]

Why are we so shite at throw ins. This isn’t a new thing either it’s been going on for years and years. 

[ProfitInMyPocket]

Go on Kadji, first appearance in the league? Can't do much worse than our midfield already has played. 

Good luck lad.

[BUTOR]

What’s weimann done to deserve escaping one of four substitutions? A game or two out the side is exactly what he needs and we can all see that.

Owers is NOT amused, but he's being polite. I'd nut the ***.

Bad enough just hearing the bloke on radio, imagine having to sit next to him.

I'm concerned with this, the football is woeful can't defend for toffee.
