City vs City

[Liam_SWFC]

Hope Bristol City get justice on Warnock's anti football, nothing short of disgusting last season at Hillsborough. Not celebrated a goal like our 85th minute winner for a while.

 

[JoshBCFC]

No idea what to predict for this... head says loss by heart says 95th minute Aden Flint winner.

Going to go for a 1-0 win for us

Didn't know Barcelona played at Hillsborough. Huh, learn something new every day...

If you were at Hillsborough last season you'd know what I mean. He made it the Warnock show as he normally does at Hillsborough. Pig bastard.

Just don't go bleating about anti-football when your own side are just as guilty is my point.

 

[JJH]

Nice early start.... dreading the game mind.

 

[Super_horns]

Bristol City 2-1 up v 10 men.

Think the ref and other officials might be getting a flea or two in their ear from Warnock !

 

[JoshBCFC]

Get the fuck in!

 

[Bluebird_Dai]

Bogle is an absolute dickhead and the ref is just as bad, bottled sending Pack off. Ahh well can't win them all! And us being utterly shit carries on, we'll turn it around eventually. You were due a win at home against us anyways!

 

[JJH]

I love this team

Looked like Pack won the ball from where I was sat. Baker should've been sent off at the very end though.

 

[JJH]

Pack should've gone early in the half, Bogle was 100% a red the dirty bastard. Up the City

 

[Luke_ciderhead]

I am absolutely fucking delighted with that result. Feeling a real buzz about supporting this club.

Where did you watch the game mate? The pack challenge that you lot seem to think deserved a yellow wasn't even a foul. Won a lot of the ball and was no way a yellow.

 

[TTOCS]

Packs tackle was not a foul, clearly won the ball.
And I will say in all fairness that Bogle shouldnt have been sent off unless it was two footed? I couldnt see clearly.
Nervy tense game and the red swung it our way.
Wasnt that impressed with Cardiff, didnt see any of the pace I thought they had, but two patched up teams I believe.

I didn't. I'm basing it off Kevin Ratcliffe on Radio Wales who by the way despises anything and everything about us. So if he says Pack should have walked then I'm inclined to believe him.

Aye he two footed the man the clown, definite red. Was always going to be tough for us with the spine of the team missing. NML going off injured right at the start would have put paid to any of the pacey play we would have gone for.

Just because he despises you doesn't mean he's right pal... it was right in front of me, and like i said .. it wasn't even a foul.

The chap you're talking about wouldn't of had a great view where he was commentating from, the bogle one would of been right in front of him though I didn't see that one properly.

 

[JJH]

Bogle's red card was the most blatant red card you'll ever see, a two footed challenge that was horrendously late.

 

[BCFC David]

We got to fuck this up soon haven't we? I fucking hate the international break!

From where I was sat it looked like Bogle didn't win the ball and I think it was two-footed too. Omar Bogle apologised on twitter after the game too.

What about Junior Hoilett?

One key thing that I'm really impressed with is how tactically flexible we are. To be able to jump from playing our normal, short passing football to a superb counter-attacking display and then to a really direct style of play in a week is not a bad thing.

As for the game itself, I think Bryan, Brownhill and Pack all had good games, with Djuric, Flint and O'Dowda all absolutely outstanding. Djuric was key (obviously) to way we played, Flint was a rock in defence and scored a bloody good header and O'Dowda ripped Lee Peltier to shreds. Magnusson, Smith and Baker all looked a bit dodgy though, with Magnusson who's only good contribution all game was the long throw that won us the game but was horrific otherwise, Baker obviously isn't fully fit and seemed to struggle after 35 minutes, and Smith's passing being slightly below average.

The game was really even until we scored, then we were on top and then Cardiff scored a goal seemingly out of nowhere. We did well to hang on until the half-time break and then once Bogle completely lost his head and decided to try and snap Marlon Pack in half, the game was in our favour. In the last 10 minutes Baker should've been sent off but we held on. The fact we held on shows how much we've matured since last season, we were in a very, very similar position in January with 5/10 minutes to go and Brownhill was backheeling it on the edge of our own box, today he was smashing it as far as he could from the edge of his own box.

Brilliant performance, shows that we are here in the top 6 to stay.

Anyone saying Pack's challenge wasn't a foul as he won the ball, is second only to the guy on ch5 saying Bobby Reid is without doubt the best player outside the Prem.

So confused, do you think he is or not

 

[JJH]

We'll never be mastered, by you, by you Cardiff bastards

 

[big mean bunny]

Yeah I kinda didnt finish my sentence. It is silly to claim any player is the best player outside the Prem just because he plays for your side. As you just dont see enough of sides other than your own. I'd suspect Neves is the best player, however I couldnt state he is ' without doubt' that. Reid is a player that doesnt always stand out on highlights, but that is literally all I have seem of him. So that is no way to judge him, neither are stats or goals.

Pack's challenge was under the laws reckless. Playing or winning the ball is not a considerable and isnt mentioned in the laws of the game as something that therefore means challenges can be as reckless or aggressive as you like if you make contact with the ball.

Reid isn't the best player outside of the PL, he couldn't even get into our side last year for the most part.

 

[JonBCFC]

Yeah I don't think the bloke was being serious, he's actually a regular on our forum and always does a cracking write up after every game. Usually spot on with his analysis.

Reid has been proper good this season though.

 

[City169]

As others say, he wasn't being fully serious. The guy who said that does write ups of away games on our forum and is pretty balanced in general.
Reid probably has a shout at most improved player in the division over the last year though.

Ole? I can't say I've watched it, but I'd imagine it was very young in cheek.

Yeah ole. Second time he's been on the channel 5 show. They only get to say a brief summary but I think he speaks very well on there.

Tbf I always forward whenever the fans come on. Find it very cringe worthy.
