    Nige struggles to get across to his team how to hold on or to win a game..
    I missed the 2nd half.. seems like I didn’t miss much..

    Cheers man - we should have scored 6 though. <doh>

    BTW, cheers for O'Dowda - he's been absolutely brilliant and was again today.

    Constantly playing 3-5-2, reactive instead of proactive, no plan B, just pick and hope, almost like Steve Cotterill is in charge again.

    Big big trouble this season.

    We’ve only played one game at home so far. So it’s a bit premature to make that statement

    Do you remember last season and the one before? We must have one of the worst home records over the last few years surely? A 3-1 or 4-1 win against Luton will put us right.

    A point away is usually a decent result
    But a single point from 3 games isn’t nearly enough to see us safe after 46 games
    Not by a long way

    And yet again as I said last week we are nearly always the last game to finish in the whole of the UK more weeks than I care to remember

    Didn’t you know two minutes are added for being called Bristol City FC, all refs are aware of this little known fact, unless we are losing in which case they deduct 2 minutes <laugh><laugh>

    Did anybody know that no team made more long passes today than BCFC in the championship. Top of the bang it long league at least.

    1 shot on target in 90 minutes isn’t likely to win many games

    That’s due to poor defending from the rash of defenders that NP has signed.

    It's also due to a team that is trapped in a rut and don't know the way out despite many changes over the years that have all fallen down the same hole. Is it possible that anyone connected with Bristol City has ever noticed that we have serious status changing statistics or do they still have their collective heads either in the sand or very far up their rear ends? Help get me out of here please.

    Just watched the highlights. A good goal from AW. Wigan probably had more good chances than us. Looked a defo pen for that foul against Conway in the 1st half. Looked more obvious than the one given against us at Hull. The inconsistency in these decisions means we have to have VAR.
    Can’t believe Conway missed that sitter of a header second half.
    The goal we conceded is typical of the type of goals we have been conceding over the last year or so, the ball pinballs around our box, and we don’t react to block it or get it clear.

    Weirdly enough I think we’ll be OK!
    When you consider that Hull are top and Sunderland are 6th, and we should have beaten both I really
    He is making an impression, no doubt about that.
    He certainly has talent, but it’s a case of keeping him at that level - we weren’t able to do that. Only time will tell if you can!!
