    Wonder what would have happened if Coleman had listened to us in the first place and reverted to the back four, he needs to start taking notice. <ok>

    Had a nap and just woke up. Never doubted them for a second. Wonder if any away supporters left at half time. I know I would have. <laugh>

    It's a difficult one for CC as he has come into a situation where he is fire fighting. The 5 3 2 has something that has worked for him in the past but as we seen with Poyet where we tried to play out from the back past formations don't always work. CC will work it...he's had some good results and some bad ones with his formations. Today might have told him something. Me I love wingers...always loved that Tommy Docherty team in the 70's...nothing better than seeing them lads hurtling down the wings and knocking good crosses in....still as they say over here it's great to be an armchair quarterback.

    Aye. A comeback from 3-0 at ht!!! I turned everything off and decided to do some house diy listening to Aerosmith and LED Zeppelin.... my sins mate (a mag) said “3-2 the Sunderland game” I thought he was taking the piss!! Put in ssn and we’d just scored our third,, or rather Bristol city had!! Hopefully that shows Coleman 4-4-2 is the way to go,!!!,!

    Hopefully it can make them realise

    I really think he will, he's desperately looking for something that works and that did so surely he'll latch on to it. He'd be daft if he didn't and he doesn't seem to be.

    Obviously it wouldn't mean we'd win every game 3-0 but it's about a more attacking mindset, we may as well go for it because we can't defend.

    Billy Bingham, George Mulhall, Harry Hooper, Lieghton James, Magic Johnson, Mike Summerbee, DenisTeuart, Billy Hughes, just a few of the better ones we have had, off the top of my head.

    Well in! The point isn't itself that useful (better than nothing of course) but if they can take that second half to other games and seek to replicate it you'll be sorted. Bristol City are one of the best teams in the league (as in the actual players they have), you've got a huge February set of fixtures. (H) Brentford, (A) Bolton stand out. March looks an absolute ****er so some momentum now is required!

    Keep it up, all is not lost.

    Fair play, I thought we were gone there. Hope is a dangerous thing at SAFC but there must be a spark somewhere after that

    Looking at the stats we matched them for shots so probably deserved the result. When O'Shea and Brown were banging in the own goals on the reg it was because they were under pressure all game.
