[Torquay Sky Blue]

Awful footballer.

good example of being a prime physical athlete means fuck all without technical football ability and basics.

horrific footballer with stinking attitude.

Armstrong was head and shoulders above everyone at Torquay but physicality rules in that league. You need a bit more in the championship

I saw this as well . I think he was telling them to hurry up with the celebrations. Cheeky fucker

What a twat then as though they would have done any different if they had scored .

It was Borges who had missed the header just after Latibeaudiere was sent off, probably trying to get some tips on how to celebrate if he does manage to score a simple chance

 

[Viktor17]

Should be brilliant

Hasn’t got the football ability though. Yep can bench press 200kg and hold 3 men off, watch him yesterday, desperate football ability.

 

[HJones23]

Thought we looked leggy first 30 & Onyeka omission was clear, but we did what all good teams do & take our chances. The timing of the 2nd goal was key as it seemed to take the wind out of their sails, and we managed the 2nd half really well and should have got a 3rd which would have been the icing on the cake.

Everyone was about 7/10 bar Grimes who I thought outstanding in the middle of the park, won everything and kept it tidy in possession. Special mention to Rushworth for that save at the end, watched the highlights back this morning and was better than seeing it in person.

A minimum of 4 points from the next 2 and I think it’s done.

 

[CovveeBreak]

Grimesy fully ready to rip Twine’s head off around that stoppage is just

...did he have a fiver on us winner 3 nil??

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Anyone still think Sinclair Armstrong would be a good signing.... Their fans around me absolutely hated him

Were you one of the Cov fans in the home end? At the end of the game, someone flashed their Cov top to the away fans!

Agreed on Armstrong but this was evident for a long time and Tyrese Campbell who many on here admired.

didn't they used to make cars?

 

[torchomatic]

Watching the brief highlights back, what was going on during our first goal celebration? A BC player seemed to break into the "circle". What was that all about?

 

[skybluecam]

Armstrong is one of those players who looks dangerous on first watch because of his attributes, but his record is crap.

Yet another game where he looked busy but spannered every shot high or wide

 

[sc1940]

4 more I think

4 more and 3 draws I just can't see us losing more than 3 from here, but you never know.

Seen on fb that the lad was discharged from hospital and is ok

[Bristol sky blue]

Nipped in the home end today after I remembered I had a Bristol login from some event I went to years ago. Away end was so loud, really lively, a real credit to the club.

Such an important win, bit soft from Lati but we got away with it, that Haji goal absolutely flawed Bristol.

Sitting with the home fans was a good reminder that there are miserable clueless nobs at every club! on their own players backs from minute 1, shouting forward at every opportunity

Moment of the day was Dasilva's assist, this proper gobby bloke had been on his back all match calling him a useless midget, when Jay skinned a couple of their defenders and picked out Tats he was raging "shit his entire time here and now he turns into prime Carlos"

I was in home end too - right at the back. Similar to you: bloke called DaSilva a 'poisoned Welsh dwarf who can't play football' just seconds before he beat 2 defenders and delivered that cross for the goal!!! I managed not to laugh out loud at him when it went in... just.

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

He's not a risk. He's a very talented boy.

Did you ask him if he was an SBT member?

I was but that wasn't me, I stayed quiet until the celebrations at the end. There were a fair few dotted around, some younger lads got moved on for being a bit obvious.

Oddly in my block after the final whistle some Asian lads called over Markelo and had a chat, seemed to know eachother, the stewards got a bit shitty with them.

I went the route of saying 'God were shit' fit right in I think going in the home end in a tighter game or one we lose must be way harder

 

[fernandopartridge]

Our squad depth really showed yesterday, to be able to bring on the players we did and them all to make a good contribution really made a difference.

grendel was in the home end too then

 

[Cally Fedora]

The debate is not whether he can play football. It’s his complete inability to defend. He’s perfectly ok in their half. Just not in ours.

Hmmm

 

[SBT]

Football has changed since the old days.

Rushworth's contract with Brighton is coming to an end. They can't make him sign another one and can't make him sign for a certain club. He loves playing for us and stated he would love to sign for us permanently at the end of the season. It's clear where Rushworth sees his future and why wouldn't he?

If Brighton want him as their #1 and give him a pay rise to match then he will stay there.

 

[covcity4life]

He plays football in the championship. Think it's fair to say he's done well and isn't awful.

We won't get him for a pittance, but he would be so important for us that it would be worth a decent fee to sign him. He knows coming to us would put him as No.1 for the first time in his career at a club where everyone adores him.

Rushworth has 2 more years on his contract with Brighton

 

[covcity4life]

Not a lot then. If they wanna keep him they will need to give him a new contract soon and he will want to be the starter

If they are not willing to offer that he might do one season as back up but then will be going into final year of contract with less value for a sale

If they sell their current first choice they’d be pretty daft to go and spend big on a replacement when they have him ready to go.

Complete inability to defend yet he got in no end of blocks and even headers yesterday
Yet again one of our better players yesterday

 

[Grendel]

grendel was in the home end too then

I suggest you read the comments on here by people at the game. Sunday league defending was one I believe

 

[Grendel]

Dasilva defending like a sunday league player today

yes here it is

 

[covcity4life]

Ya it depends on if they want rushworth to play for them or not really.

 

[David O'Day]

Didn't think Grenners was at the game

 

[Bristol sky blue]

I went the route of saying 'God were shit' fit right in I think going in the home end in a tighter game or one we lose must be way harder

I decided to join in loudly with the pre match 'Always believe in... Thatcher's Gold, Gold!' chant as I love the stuff and there were some obvious nutters at the back of the stand who I wanted to deceive into thinking I was Bristol I applauded Bristol City efforts on target... i.e great saves by Rushworth (that last one late on was absolutely superb, he anticipated where the ball would go). And I shook my head a lot when Bristol players made mistakes (not because I disapproved, I just couldn't believe how poor their first touch was).

 

[Bristol sky blue]

grendel was in the home end too then

I hope you are not implying that I am Grendel, that is deeply offensive
