    Missed the game unfortunately. Is this the definition of a lottery at the mo? Gawd knows what the next result will be.

    Did we play well? Any sign of a pattern of play?

    That’s bloody typical, you can normally bank on us conceding a late equaliser. That’s cost me points!! :)

    I thought that might be the answer <laugh> Oh well, at least we won't be relegated and there's a glimmer of hope regarding "the double".

    At least a Rovers fan recognises quality <cheers>

    Tbh... I thought Swansea were decent. They did what Cardiff tried to do but were a lot better at it tactics wise

    That's pretty good for Plymouth with a long trip to Ipswich

    Bristol City have sacked manager Nigel Pearson after two and a half years in charge, with the Robins 15th in the Championship.

    The club have lost five of their past seven matches with Saturday's 2-0 defeat by Cardiff Pearson's final game.

    The 60-year-old was appointed in February 2021, initially on a short-term deal, and was the second longest-serving manager in the Championship.

    His contract was due to expire at the end of this season.

    "This was a difficult decision to make as we recognise and appreciate how much Nigel has done for the club over the past two-and-a-half years on and off the pitch," said club chairman Jon Lansdown.

    "Nigel is highly respected by the staff and players and has been very supportive of the academy structure and our women's team.

    "We all wanted Nigel to achieve our ambition to be promoted but, with our recent results, feel that now is the time to make a change to give the club the best possible chance of success."

    Assistant manager Curtis Fleming will take on the role of interim head coach, while a new appointment is made.

    Just adding this on the end of this thread.

    Next Saturday morning on ITV4 - Big Match Revisited. They are showing the Swans v Brentford game from 1978. I remember it was a big promotion game which saw us win 2-1 <cheers>

    Also on the programme are Forest v Leeds and West Ham v Derby

    I’m taping it - I’m pretty sure that I was there, and standing on the North Bank right behind / in line with one of Curt’s goals. <cheers>
