Silvio Dante Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 1 minute ago, GrahamC said: Fair, though having scored the winner v Leicester & being involved in the goal yesterday, Mehmeti might well climb that list by season’s end. Wells might only have 4 league goals too but the 3 away from home (equaliser at Hull, what should have been a late winner at Cov & only goal yesterday) were all important ones.. Yeah to be fair a lot of the bottom end are there due to lack of game time a la Wells. He just hasn’t played enough to climb higher, ditto Roberts. With Anis, I don’t think he’s had a large number of “better than average” games. I liked the additional confidence he seemed to have yesterday but the decisions are still ropey. I’d think that he’d have to go some to get ahead of (for example) Bell who has had a better season than I’d anticipated - still not sure of his ultimate level. At a push, an excellent last six might get him level with Bell overall but it does still markedly illustrate our problems when the only attacking player in our best nine for me is Sykes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehinton Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 Dickie Conway Conway away at West Ham / Bell winner against Swansea away after we had 4 goals ruled out first half Closely ran third place, any of the below: - Local press having to put community notes correcting c.three separate points our technical director made to local radio when trying to put a positive spin on things - our chairman saying he can’t go into behind the scenes reasons for binning off the most senior medical person at the club, then detailing international break training schedules minutes later - Highly self thought of Twitter “ITKers” deleting their accounts after saying local press were ‘very poor these days’ are ‘in the mud’ and ‘had no sources anymore’ for dismissing Lampard - Adam Murphy having a c.5 month long mini pre season, involving no games - Southampton at home (sorry) - first 35 mins vs Plymouth at home (still the most enjoyable snippet of a game of the season, although sorry it doesn’t count because they made changes to their previous starting 11) - The quality of stake pasties vs last season. Superb. (This one probably takes it) 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FNQ Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 POTS - Max, single handedly saved us from several batterings. Could have easily been 3 or 4 down at HT vs West Ham in the first game, we could have lost 5-0 or more at home versus Leeds, MOTM v Leicester at home as examples. YPOY. Tommy, he is a great prospect albeit for new employers next season. Champagne Moment(s).. Putting 9 goals past Liam Manning sides over two games earlier in the season them head-hunting him as Head Coach. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I went with "The introduction of the Football Governance Bill in March 2024, and it's intended objective requiring club officials to satisfy a test of their "competency". The champagne is on ice for the moment but this will hopefully, in time, lead to competent directors being in charge of Bristol City." Fingers crossed. Yeh, we are who that bill is designed to protect 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I think by and large this is meant to govern against financial mismanagement and clubs futures being put at risk. Although they have many faults I don’t think our owners fall into this category.

But the specific new competency element of the proposed new Directors test will be relevant to our board of two. As will, potentially, any terms of the new Code for Football Governance. As and when that is published I think we will see that changes to our board of directors is necessary in order to comply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t read it really apart from knowing it is generally a good thing for the game. How does it affect someone more ‘stable’ like us out of interest?

Negan Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 Jason Knight POTS Conway YPOTS Have zero knowledge or interest in the women’s game so didn’t bother voting, same for the champagne moment. Left that blank as don’t feel there’s genuinely been any. Maybe the West Ham win but it’s just West Ham… hardly exciting.

Was a close one between him and Dickie for me, Knight has dropped a bit towards the end of the season but overall think he’s been a quality signing. Always available, runs his socks off and has to be the highest for distanced covered over the season. Scored some important goals too. My player of the season but could have easily been Dickie too.
