I'm totally gutted we didn't manage to concede a goal  

To be honest mate, I think some are.

Bristol City were dreadful but there was appetite and far less mucking around at the back waiting to concede possession. JJ makes such a difference even half fit. Play like this for the rest of the season and we stay up.

All this thread needs is more obsession with Bob.

Slightly annoying seeing “we only won because they were crap”. Why can’t people, our own fans give them credit when it’s due? 
 

Granted, Bristol City weren’t great, but for the first time in a long time we’ve put in a performance worthy of 3 points yet people are still trying to pick holes. 
 

Tonight also shows how important JJ has been to us this season, especially when he starts.

Great start under the new CFO's leadership.

It is amazing what difference an Evolved Leadership Structure To Drive Long-Term Stability & Success makes!

A win, that'll breed much-needed confidence

First win under Rowett
Clean sheet (penalty saved)

 

Fatawu scores again

Nelson with his first goal

James back in the starting lineup (and with an assist)

 

One league final down, nine to go.

 

Negatives from tonight: Ayew, Daka and De Cordova-Reid (assist aside) useless once again, at least Mavididi tried and got close, nearly scoring a goal.

And Bristol City were pretty much awful throughout the entire game.

Bristol City: how shit must you be? We kept a clean sheet.

 

Same again Satday, lads.

 

 

[Larry_LCFC]

Turn QPR over with a similar performance and I might just start believing we could stay up. So tight at the bottom though.

[Bourbon Fox]

Tumescent 

[ACF]

Playoffs still mathematically possible 👀

[StanSP]

Play like that and we'll be fine

We played some really neat football at times today … not sure why Rowettball gets a bad rap, the quick first time passes and rapid counter attacks were a joy to watch!!

Yes agree. Abdul should had a hat trick with two finishes, he hits the target he scores and Mav did his usual only goalie to beat ultra casual effort off the post. 
 

Thought the game plan was solid, the players still sometimes have teflon feet, but the effort and application was there. 
 

Skipp absolutely superb, though both centre backs did well and Abdul very threatening. The rest all contributed so credit where credit is due, well deserved win, against who imo are nowhere near the worst team to come to us. 

[LeePhilpottsBaldSpot]

We look so much more like a normal football club since Rowett came in.

 

It's not been anything spectacular, just common sense football and organisation. The last few managers have over-complicated it.

 

Onto the next one. Another must win.

It's possible. I guess we'll never know but that clean sheet feels as big as winning itself. Huge monkey off our backs there.

Come guys and gals, we made Bristol look sh!te with our doggedness. Hamza took one for the team with yellow when they were through. Ayew made some forward runs and passed when there was space or a player available but held up the ball when there wasn’t, except once or twice. For those saying Winks should start, he looked ok but fell on his arse almost immediately after coming on. Mukasa looked ok too, but also looked like he was on a different wavelength to the rest of our players for while to,  finding different space to run into that no one else anticipated.

 

so

 

so

 

so

 

 

please about the clean sheet and the win for the manager (and the team)

Winks was good when he came on. Him and Mukasa off the bench killed the game off, having actual on the ball quality for the last twenty or so minutes made a massive difference.
 

If you can’t see what Winks brings to the table you are blinkered by how much of a prat he has been

[jamfox]

Garry Rowet said, the plan was for 60  / 30 and it was important so save quality for the end to keep the energy going , in light of the fact that the starting line-up played well , maybe we need to concede he maybe knew what he was doing with that starting 11 ?

Agree with nearly everything you said. However though Daka did well when he came on that shot aside 

[Foxin_Mad]

Tbf you can see some of the players look to have a bit more confidence. I think if maybe Mavadidi scores he will go on a run. That was his best performance in a Leicester shirt for a while, if he plays like that more he will score. I really shows that having a useless tosser like Cifuentes was a massive own goal

[HarryDee8]

Bristol city were awful!,  like a conference team.

I missed this one...  Maybe that was what worked?   

[trabuch]

I missed this match. I was out at a very entertaining gig. I promise I will never watch another Leicester City match again until we are safe.
