    I don;t get it. The defender has just held Simms and thrown him to the ground so the keeper gets a free catch of the ball....

    Godden to get the winner in the 97th minute after a half of pure shithousery from Bristol.

    Expecting Bristol to get dirtier and dirtier as the game goes on. There's no way a Pearson side is not going to notice a ref who is letting this much go.

    They are going to have find an extra man deeper in midfield from somewhere so that their wingbacks can get higher. Their 3 in midfield is Matty James sitting a bit deeper than the other 2 and we've got their wingbacks penned back because he can't manage the horizantal line through defensive...

    Simms and Godden have both had very good chances that they've side footed wide without even making the keeper work. Dominance is turning into wastefulness now.

    Hope Ayari is watching Saka today. His movement to make himself available for a simple pass and then link the play has been outstanding.

    Bristol look completely unable to handle our press in possession and our movement out of possession. Need a goal while we're this on top.

    Not in any way suggesting I am an expert but having had to do my badges out here for my local club role, it has all but destroyed my enjoyment of watching football as entertainment or a spectacle. Coventry games I still enjoy because of my love for the club but pretty much anything else and I'm...

    I thought (hoped?!) this thread was going to be about 1980s football magazines.

    Does Robins lack ambition ?

    I don’t find him a tactically brilliant manager and often I think he’s a little slow to react in games. I do think he’s a great man manager, knows how to build squad spirit and is excellent at improving raw players, which is one of the reasons I’m not worried about our new signings this year...

    By Christmas everyone will be lauding Robins again for getting us to where we are with so many new signings and injuries.

    Can't believe Eccles is the best we have for those free kicks. Would rather Binks came over and took an inswinger.

    Allen's decision making of who and when to press in those situations is outstanding. Ayari just looks naive and inexperienced. He is running, just a lot of it is pointless.

    Passing game looks much sharper and crisper tonight. Only been 15 mins but looks as good as anything since the opening game. Binks breaking lines, midfield passing forward. Godden dropping into spaces, Simms holding the ball up well. Looks promising in attack. Defence still look nervy though.
