Match Day Thread Bristol City v Watford

Notice how Redprintt doesn’t have a pop at any other defender apart form Zak… You can guarantee if Zak had done that, there would be a come t by now

 

Great save from Max to keep it at 1-1

 

Yep, I thought that was 2-1

 

Think we’ll appreciate McCrorie when he's not playing wide right.
As good a save I've seen from Max, the Watford commentators lament his distribution though......still his brilliant stop has kept us level.
Dickie needs a pineapple where the sun doesn't shine.

 

I decided to have a lie in this morning but then decided to get up and watch the second half only to find it isn't on Robins TV due to other coverage. What a bummer but I will stay out of bed and watch the news come in on BBC Sport. 1-1 at Half time seems OK but let's wait and see if we can pick up all 3 points today and do the double over Watford. I just noticed the new boy got his first goal so well done him and welcome to the fold.

 

My opinion is that you have to give Watford credit, not allowed us any time on the ball, stopping our flow.. they’ve learnt from the defeat on Boxing Day.. we need to have a plan b

 

Use a website called Fawanews.com good coverage usually

 

Rob Akinson on Robin TV is a great co-commentator, talks a lot of sense ..
seem a bit more up for it in this second half

 

Dead ball delivery’s by Twine look good

 

Subs make sense, Conway’s not had a sniff today. McCrorie has shown glimpses of what he might be able to do when fully match fit and sharp

 

Thanks for that info Supcon but I only lose Robins TV coverage when it is either a cup game or is being covered by Sky or anyone else. The 1-1 draw today was what I expected and it was nice to see Twine hit the twine in his first outing so well done him.

 

I thought we slightly edged that one, but a good point nonetheless in a banana skin game.

 

Finishes 1-1 which I think is about right..
I thought Knight had a good game as did Twine with his goal and fabulous deliveries from the corners he took..
Bit of a hangover from Tuesday but a point’s a point gained, well done Liam and the team

 

When will our injury list players be making their comebacks because I think we need more savvy out there to do better. Out of all of those on the treatment table who do you think can make the most difference? One of the criticisms I have had over this season is our lousy attempts at free kicks and corners but it seems some on here see Twine as the answer to that deficiency.

 

I should add that although I was never a defender in my playing days, to jump for a high ball in your own box with your arms outstretched is something we were all taught NOT to do at Wiltshire League Div 3 level……..

 

A good performance to be fair, better than I thought it might be after Tuesday night. If Knight can add goals to his game, we have a £15-20m player on our hands, as he has everything else.
Happy with a point, but do feel with a little bit more quality up front, we win this game comfortably.

 

Quite a few are back tbh looking at the bench. Only really Atkinson & Naismith now, and to be fair, defensively we have been sound, so not really missed them.

 

That was what I was wondering because really we haven't been too bad except for those 2 recent away matches in which we just didn't show up, but then put in a great win against West Ham in the FA Cup.

 

Looking on the bright side, The gas lost and we're above Cardiff on GD!!

 

Very pleased with our 2nd half, thought we deserved to win it. If it hadn't been for Dickie's stupid handball.........
Knight was Knight 8/10 as usual and Twine will be a great addition if we can sign him in the summer, his deliveries into the box we're something else.
Shame McCrorie and then Dickie and Knight just couldn't get us the 3 points we deserved.

Ps it will be interesting which position Manning settles on for McCrorie.
