    To lose 5-3 over 2 games is very creditable, some Premier teams have lost 5 or more o during 1 game..

    Well done City and all concerned...Fabulous effort..

    It was a shame 90 +6 but hey ho what a fantastic result and to actually get to 2-2 before the sucker punch WAS AMAZING, I am so happy for Lee, SL and the TEAM, if we finish 7th then that would be a bitter pill to swallow, but would still round off a fantastic season.

    Right
    Back to the league - and a promotion campaign.

    All guns blazing against QPR please - especially as I’m bringing my family down for a birthday day out.

    What a fantastic effort from the team tonight, they, like me should be very proud of their efforts. Once again they have done BCFC proud!!

    That was a full strength Man City side that we pegged back from 2-0 down, that has not happened to them many times in the last 5-6 years!!

    Great effort but so many silly mistakes. Constantly misplacing passes and failing to do simple defending....Mags really fuc#ed us with that ridiculous move at the end of the half. Worse than schoolboy.

    Man City at least know they were in 2 games.

    Now let's pick up league form.

    Easy to pick holes but we really pressed you back so I’m not surprised there were mistakes
    Didn’t notice much to be honest but I think you see less at the game than on tv sometimes

    That my friends was the best side to play at Ashton Gate in my 40+ years watching City.
    We gave em a game,we can hold our heads high.
    Promotion is the aim,let’s do it this year.
    Man City what a team,the football was fantastic to watch.

    Just back from the game, fantastic night apart from the score.
    First ten minutes I feared the worse I really thought it’s going to be a hammering. We couldn’t seem to pass the ball to our own teammates.
    On the bus on the way home their fans were raving about us saying we’ve given them a game and we should be proud as Pep took us seriously with his team he put out.
    De Bruyne needs to be drug tested as he was so quick it was unbelievable.
    David Silva needs his boots checking as no matter how hard the ball came at him he controlled it straight away.
    But we can hold our heads high as we’ve been beaten but only by the odd goal against arguably one of the best teams on the planet.

    I think you will find that was Pack - with a similar error - plus LJ playing Flint up front vs 10 men who specialise in hitting on the break - but that’s another thread.

    I am reading media reports now stating how we are 'only the second team to score 2 goals against them. blah blah.. Lets be honest they battered us, they were pure class throughout the side, touch, vision and quality. Sane is another level.

    We should be happy to have competed, but we were second best tonight from the start.

    Back to the league..

    26003 "sell outs" seem to be just over 26,000 ............. wonder how much we pooled financially from the last 3 cup games? a £million

    Thought we put in a great shift but in the end outclassed by a fantastic side......In my eyes a good account of ourselves.....we move on..
