Apparently RUMOUR has it NP slipped and fell at Failand, it dislodged a blockage that Nakhi Wells shouldnt play very often because he was so expensive ......
Imagine where we could be without our last minute concessions of goals and let's just hope those failings don't come back to bite us later in the season. City need to continue this fine run of form and cut out the errors in concentration if we are to have a season of some note. Keep it coming please Nigel and remember Row Z.
I know he’s not long come back (Semenyo) from injury and has been outstanding since he came back, but seemed to struggle today when he came on, his marker had the better of him, couldn’t hold anything up today.. hope he’s ok and not come back too soon..

Thanks for the link bcfcred but it won't play in Canada so hopefully I can watch the highlights on TV Mucho later tonight. They play programmes from all regular British T.V. channels.
I won't get carried away, too very early in the season for that.....for me it's 3 points towards safety
Highest goal scorers in the championship Bristol City FC Reference Wells he has been a revaluation this season-Nige told him what was required and he is finally producing the goods his huge salary deserves. Long may that continue at present has to be one of the first names on the team sheet.
Totally agree with that, but for once it’s good to see the team full of confidence and taking the game to opponents. Long may it continue!!
I like our attacking intent, teams playing us now will fear that, something we haven’t really had since Tammy was here tbh. I think NP will need to make a few changes to ensure players like Conway don’t burn out, so I expect he will play next Sat, but be rested for the midweek game at Norwich for Semenyo. Good times, enjoy them as we know how quickly the tide can turn in football
I agree we have defence issues, you know we are broke, we have to have faith in the players we have, Kalas will be fit soon and maybe Sol Bamba, who knows?
I'm not sure it's to do with funds IMO...of course we could try to go out and buy the best defenders, but the games (most) that I've watched, it's been down to mentality, players switching off and this thing we have in our locker trying to sit back and absorb pressure, which we're not good at.. Switching off is our worst enemy, a through ball, not picked up.....concentration is key up to the final minute.. If we can sort it out, I can see us having a comfortable campaign and then who knows..
To be fair Vyner has done really well, I didn’t see yesterday’s game, but from all accounts I’ve read neither of the goals were his fault and he played really well. I’ve been saying for a while we are better on the front foot, we really don’t have the players to sit back. However part of playing front foot football is you leave yourself vulnerable at the back, you have to accept you will concede. We missed loads of chances yesterday which had we taken we’d have been well out of sight. Keep playing as we are and I believe we’ll win more than we lose and if not at least it’s exciting to watch.
