    Forest winning 2.0
    Donny drawing

    Sorry but the guy has got to get rid of this one up front malarkey,it ain't working.
    I really am concerned about this guy and his credentials.

    Surely the fan base must be questioning his team selection and formations.
    We are going down if we keep going as we are.

    We probably are, RR.

    Not sure we should blame McI though.
    It is a situation that has been growing for 3 years now, and could be that the only way up is down

    i really dont think it matters about formation its the players

    james to old now we need a new keeper
    McGivern is the current weak link in the defense and gets done far to easy
    Elliott, 100% effort but not been good enough
    Cisse, good tackler but not good enough as the last 3 games weve been in 9 goals have been conceded
    Kilkenny not consistant with his performances
    Pearson another who gives 100% but gives the ball away to easy
    Bolasie league 1 player but on his day stands out
    Stead cant get in the team and when he has, he hasnt done much
    Wood, looks good with a strike partner but hasnt been what we need

    so out of all of that we need, basically a new squad

    ----------NEW

    Foster Fontaine NEW NEW

    Adomah NEW NEW NEW

    ---Pitman NEW

    So 7 new players and about 3 for the bench

    all in all 10 players will need to be brought in, in the summer for any hope (if were still in the championship) being competitive

    will this happen, i very much doubt it with our board

    Remember, these are the same players who murdered Southampton...

    To my mind, those who are out of contract at the end of the year and who have an idea that they are leaving aren't putting a shift in - there can be no other explanation for what is happening

    If this is the case, it really doesn't matter what formation you play....

    Also, you can't blame the manager for the squad he inherited. We go to next season and sign some players with balls and fighting spirit...

    He played the formation I'd have done based on the fact we were away.

    "Surely the fan base must be questioning his team selection and formations."

    I don't understand what you want. He's had one transfer window. Half the team are going at the end of the season. You're not just like they typical negative City fan, you're like an alien bodysnatcher poorly impersonating one.

    Can't keep blaming what's happened over 3 years ffs......what's been growing?
    What has happened IMO is we got shot of GJ and replaced him with a cheap option in Millen......and then we got rid of Millen for another cheap option.

    Has DM lost the dressing room or has he lost motivation from the same players that did the double over Southampton???

    The players, manager and board have a lot to answer for.................all are failing.

    We do have the players here. Unfortunately they can't do it week in week out so in my opinion no we haven't got the players.
    What we don't have is players apart from one who would play through pain put his heart and soul into the team.
    We need 11 Cole Skuses who would switch position to fight for Bristol City.
    It must be frustrating as hell for Del to come here and see players with no fight. Apart from Tuesday we have not fought back for a long time. All he has been able to do so far is bring in loan players.
    To say is he up for the job is your choice. But yes I think HE is but are the players?

    DUNNO....! Ask me at the end of the season. If by some miracle we stay up then it was definitely YES.

    This don't make sense????? do we have the players or not??? lol

    What we are doing is leaking goals for fun and not being able to score............
    DM has no choice, he needs to sure up defence and look for either a playmaker in midfield or an out and out striker.......at this time of the season, easier said than done..
