Bristol City (A) Match-Thread

We look nothing like the team we were in the first half of the season.

What has happened?

 

So fragile and meek - we used to look so strong and dominant.

[ajthefox]

Not much I that pen shout but bloody hell what is Faes doing

[Ely fox]

I’m not a fan of this female commentator

I think the technical term is the ‘Ricardo effect’ 

Think they’ve been poor even when he was fit

This ref is pretty decent atm not being schitt like the others we get !!

by definition, he is a bit rubbish to be fair, it’s just this time we are benefiting from him being a bit rubbish..

[VG Fox]

zero urgency...wake up ffs

[SafewayFox]

Why do our wingers refuse to run at their FB’s?

 

All they do is stop in their tracks, make weird choices with their final ball and end up losing the ball anyway.

 

Call me a dinosaur but the whole inverted wingers infuriates me.

[Foxin_Mad]

Faes again proving the wooly haired twat shouldn't be playing, bomscare liability.

I did wonder if Nelson has a knock cos he's not in the squad.

Would hope so if he's not even on the bench. I hadn't noticed that to be honest.

[Tuna]

We're clueless out our own half

Yes - very telling of the mentality of our squad.

Because teams double/treble up on them because they’ve realised they’re our only threat. 

[dmayne7]

We've lost our identity. We're now often rushing the ball up the pitch and then slowing it down when it's up there, it should be the other way round

[trabuch]

I'd forgive us if we played like this at the start of the season, but we look like a bunch of lazy strangers.

[weller54]

If we win this it will be only the 2nd Easter miracle ever recorded.

[FrankieADZ]

we look very very meh

[Cropwellfox]

Pass accuracy falling off a cliff too. Premier league squad my arse, overpaid plodders far more apt

Was just about to say something like this. We’ve gone from being almost invincible to flakey and scrappy 

[Flappit]

It's turning into Brendan ball now. Sideways passing with no intent. No movement up front. 

[TheGoldenGod]

Fair play to Faes because I love him but this first 20 minutes is an all-timer for worst CB performance in years. Looks like the local drunk is on the pad controlling him!

[Beechey]

We’re not getting our wingers involved at all
