Col city fan Posted 12 January 2013 Share Posted 12 January 2013 We might not be far off come the end of the season without spending any more money. That's what you said before we signed Wood. Trust me Mark Trotter in may well seal the deal. I'm not being flippant. King is ok, James is on great form but whether he can continue it till the end of the season, is a big ask. One more and I'm well optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend_in_blue Posted 12 January 2013 Share Posted 12 January 2013 Absolutely! There's lotsa games left. Now we have Wood, lets get another central midfielder to bolster the squad and we might not be far off come the finish. Imo we can do this with what we have. Half of the battle is a mental one, clearly at the minute that is there with this squad of players and will see off the majority of teams in this league. A +25 goal difference is enough to put fear into any team. Yes it would be nice to bolster the squad, but we have plenty with what we have already.

ealingfox Posted 12 January 2013 Share Posted 12 January 2013 Derek McInnes sacked by Bristol City Comments (1) Bristol City have sacked manager Derek McInnes following Saturday's 4-0 defeat by Leicester, which left them bottom of the Championship. The Scot, 41, had won one of his last five games and endured a club record-equalling seven-game losing run earlier in the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les-TA-Jon Posted 12 January 2013 Share Posted 12 January 2013 I think we're all honorary Wednesday fans tonight. Topped off a great day! Wednesday hadn't won in 2 games, Hull 2nd and unbeaten in 9. Wednesday away too. Brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marbelladave Posted 12 January 2013 Share Posted 12 January 2013 Hope we can hold on to Keane, very good today, particularly first half when he made Stead look like an old man...... We really need to use the confidence gained today to put us in this frame of mind for every game, home or away. Might get turned over on occasion but will pick up a fair few wins as well......

Guy Posted 12 January 2013 Share Posted 12 January 2013 Absolutely no complaints, it was a local game for me because of living in Plymouth, wish I'd gone now on reflection but didn't for various reasons. Shame for Bristol as I have a soft spot for them but at least we made our own and B.Rovers day I guess! As every conceivable outcome up above went for us, barring Cardiff's point, then on this evidence it appears to be onwards and upwards under the Messiah......we hope!

shiv Posted 12 January 2013 Share Posted 12 January 2013 Interesting interview from Nigel, small dig at last year's squad by calling them "so-called big names". All in all, great win absolutely delighted. Bring on the Boro on Friday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We dont need him for our run in of games. It would be nice to have him, but we don't need him. I suppose it's the cherry on the cake, do you really need it? Teams will back off us and fear us because we are a danger everywhere on the pitch in terms of goal threat. Mentally we have a big advantage over many teams in this league. We just need to stay positive and continue to impose ourselves on the opposition. We're nailed on for top six imo and think we can take the top two places if we remain positive in our games. Playing catch up on Cardiff suits us imo, they have reason to be worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyT Posted 12 January 2013 Share Posted 12 January 2013 I was bored so having a look at the Bristol City forum at today's match day thread and the comment on this page right at the top just after Wood had scored his first...well, it makes me laugh. http://www.otib.co.uk/index.php?/topic/151631-city-vs-leicster-matchd-thread/page-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would the team 10 points clear 'have reason to be worried'? They can afford now to lose a few games and still win the league surely? I'd rather be 10 in front than 10 behind! However, for the first time I'm starting to believe we look like a side who could get second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's because if we were in Cardiff's position we would most probably balls it up and on current form we look like we're making every team in the league fear us.

We're nailed on for top six imo and think we can take the top two places if we remain positive in our games. Playing catch up on Cardiff suits us imo, they have reason to be worried. We went on a run like this at the start of the season and then fell into inconsistency up until a few weeks ago. The nucleus of our team is full of young players who are prone to go off form. At the moment we mentally have an advantage because we've just won 3 on the trot, when we lose a couple we'll need a pick me up again. We've not been in the top 2 for a while so it's not like we're in the driving seat just yet. I'm not convinced we don't need another midfielder.

Mark_w Posted 12 January 2013 Share Posted 12 January 2013 I repeat, if you're going to leave Bert's post up it seems highly unfair that I'm not allowed to respond to it. Is it a mod's get special treatment thing or what? I'd love someone to guide me through it. Apologies, didn't realise it had been moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
