    And there’s me more concerned of wasting 90 minutes of my Saturday lol!! And listening to Robins TV commentary makes me want to scream!
    We’ve been out classed, outplayed, outwitted and if Bournemouth had their shooting boots on, could well have been 6 or more..

    Men against boys. We were awful, obviously their parachute payments help, just disappointed we didn’t give it more of a go. Back to the drawing board, I hope Williams injury isn’t serious and Massengo needs to be ready for Tues.

    Bournemouth was always going to be difficult, but you’re right we have to find a way to improve our home form.

    I never leave early, but today was a exception.
    That was awful, and if their shooting didn’t sink to our level they could of been a hammering in score line as well as performance

    During the last 10 minutes I paid particular attention to Bakinson's contribution and I'm sad to report I saw nothing other than wandering around marking nobody and pointing at something constantly. Pring was poor today but to so were most others out there and when the commentator says that Kalas's long throw was our best bet for a goal then it sums up our position. When we went down to 10 men late in the game it was said that our opposition had a chance to see the match out in total control and I wondered if I was watching the same as them.

    I have forgotten how many years we have been spinning our wheels to catch up with the talent and effort produced by others and who knows perhaps Forest Green will get there before us. Perhaps what we need is another 5 year plan or go to the dump to bring back those crazy pillars that worked so well. Really I think today just summed up Bristol City in a nutshell because it could have been a replay of the many opportunities to shine that we have had over the years and failed dismally on nearly every occasion.

    Perhaps Bournemouth did well with the green shirts which made them invisible against the grass, and that confused us.

    Thankfully I didn't hear much booing today probably because we are now so used to watching dross.

    You need a win tomorrow really or at least a point, a lose would not be good.

    No sign of Red Robin today saying how much we have progressed this season then? Yes, Bournemouth are a good side, but jeez we were pi$$ poor. We couldn’t keep the ball, we had no invention, I genuinely don’t see any consistent improvement this season over where we were 2 years ago.
    Williams injured again, no idea what it was, but he went down with no challenge, I do wonder if his body can handle professional football. Andy King went off as well, says a lot when you don’t even notice he’s missing, he was non-existent today.

    NP is dealing with LJs and DH players and a few free transfers he has been able to pull in.
    He has had no major backing from SL yet but I believe that will come in the future.He he had LJs treasure chest then I think fans would have every right to jump up and down.But the bottom line he has not yet.Give him time and he will build us a team but this lot are no where near good enough to get promotion.

    But your messaging was that NP had the managerial experience that predecessors didn’t have, therefore could get the best out of the players, but he isn’t. We’ve already seen in other posts we are worse of points wise that this stage than in 4 of the last 5 years? No other club has much money except the relegated clubs on parachute payments, so that levels the field for 21 teams and can’t be used as an excuse. 16 home games without a win is shocking
