headhunter Posted November 26, 2023 Report Share Posted November 26, 2023 Ian, Neil & DaveP discuss an eventful game at Ashton Gate against Michael Carrick’s in form Boro After a slow start City went in at half time 2-0 ahead thanks to an absolute stunner from TGH and a coolly slotted home penalty by Tommy Conway who had fluffed a one-on-one opportunity only minutes before. But with barely 10 minutes gone in the 2nd half that lead had been surrendered and another Stoke City throwaway appeared a distinct possibility but no, City came storming back with Mark Sykes crashing in a volley from Dickie’s header across goal. The big question – did we notice any change in the playing style after 10 days of coaching from new boss Liam Manning. For me it was a yes and that from an occasional observer of City who joined me for the game and commented on the high press more than once as City had all ten outfield players in the opposition half. That same observer also remarked on how City seemed to lose out on most of the 50-50 challenges with frustrating regularity. City will face an even tougher test at Southampton on Wednesday and if they come through that unscathed then that play-off challenge looks more than a pipedream. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy1968 Posted November 26, 2023 Report Share Posted November 26, 2023 Maybe I got out of the wrong side of bed today, but I don't think I disagreed with anything Ian said. I don't know which one of us should be more worried. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pj76 Posted November 26, 2023 Report Share Posted November 26, 2023 I enjoyed this podcast, thanks for doing it. One request - can you stop talking over each other? Quite often two of you talk at the same time; it gets really messy on the headphones. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my poor view in the SS, I felt as if we were less intense in the press? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted November 27, 2023 Report Share Posted November 27, 2023 Bearing in mind you are on-screen when recording, can you not signal to each other when you want to speak? The first 10 mins there us so much talking over each other, and interrupting. I will be raising my hand on Thursday. Can you ask Ian to do the same, please?
