BCFC Rich Posted September 2, 2023 Report Share Posted September 2, 2023 1 hour ago, Henry said: We seem to playing Bell and Sykes more narrow and closer to Wells. Looks far better. Underrated comment from right at the start of the thread. There was lots to love today, but this for me was key. It gave us a much bigger threat ing the middle and Nahki someone to play off. We need more of this - When Bell is down the wing Sykes needs to be getting closer to Wells and vice versa. Made us much more dangerous. 6 1 Quote Link to comment

Popular Post petehinton Posted September 2, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 2, 2023 Truly incredible win. Amazing team spirit after such an emotional week for fans. Pearson isn’t a dinosaur, Naismith isn’t only a midfielder, Cornick is better centrally, Knight isn’t only a league one player, Bell doesn’t need a league one loan. As you were. Absolutely ******* brilliant win!!!! 17 3 2 Quote Link to comment

And there’s Swansea thinking they should have had a point if penalty given (by same Ref) Just admit that you didn't watch the game but jumped in with an ill-informed comment and are now too embarrassed to retract it, and we'll all move on. 7 Quote Link to comment

That said, officiating at this level seems to be worse than ever. So, I've been wondering how much worse it'll get when VAR comes in. Unless they magic up some competent officials from somewhere. Do you fancy this ref doing the VAR? Jesus, I'd rather see Bonnie Langford doing it. 3 Quote Link to comment
WolfOfWestStreet Posted September 2, 2023 Report Share Posted September 2, 2023 (edited) Is it hyperbole to say that Mark Sykes is our best player Edited September 2, 2023 by WolfOfWestStreet Quote Link to comment
1960maaan Posted September 2, 2023 Report Share Posted September 2, 2023 Sykes probably MotM . Two great finishes , the one that counted was a great piece of coolness. Worked tirelessly and caused them problems all day while keeping the right side solid. Williams close though. Ball winner , covered every blade and his touch and energy getting us on the front foot was brilliant. The whole team were good , just wish we could put games to bed early. Created plenty , which is good, just need to finish better. All round good day , unless you're the Ref and have to explain your decisions to someone who knows the Laws. Quote Link to comment

If we can stay relatively injury-free and be knocking on the door around Christmas, then we might have a better chance of SL opening the purse strings in Jan. Quote Link to comment

pj76 Posted September 2, 2023 Report Share Posted September 2, 2023 The swans goal was against the run of play, and a bit soft. Even at that point I felt City would go on and win if they sustained the way they were playing. Very similar in this respect to the Hull game, where they were always in the game, always looked like scoring, but fell behind. it's the Bell/Wells/Sykes combo that seems most threatening. Looking at the table we've lost one against the team in second, lost in the cup against the team in third and drew against the team in fourth. Doesn't look like quite such a depressing start after all. 8 Quote Link to comment

Didn’t realise they had such poor support I expect a few thousand of those were our supporters as well. Quote Link to comment

TGH did seem to offer a much better ball at corners than we've had recently. Not that this is Tanner's thing. Edited September 2, 2023 by pj76 Quote Link to comment
