    Ronnie Rees RIP

    A true winger in the old sense. Trickery, pace and could beat a man consistently to the byline. I'll always remember my childhood watching from the spion cop, how he ran with the ball at his feet, both arms raised in an arc as he teased his defender before beating him. RIP city legend.

    O'Hare has just come back in for cameo roles off the bench. He makes us tick in and around the box. He will start next game. Wright is either utterly hopeless as a footballer (shocking first touch, lack of movement) or he has a huge onfidence issue. He had his chance to bring it tonight and...

    Wright looks like a bad £8m investment atm. O'Hare must come on. Godden and Simms must come on. Sacrifice Eccles and two up top.

    It's about pace going forward tonight. Moving the ball quicker. This should work against this W Brom side.

    Ayari is a work in progress and you can see he will be a very good player for us. O'Hare is back and already you could see his impact during his cameo. Simms needs a bit more agression to his game. Wright looks poor atm but there is something there, that is the Gykores style. He needs to be fed...

    I am frustrated like so many on here because we should be in the top six after two away wins, but instead we are down in the doldrums. I know there are only a few points between a lot of places at this relatively early stage but all the same it's what I and I think many of us expected to be. The...

    We dominate, fail to convert chances then get all at sea at the back. We play sideways, backwards and are lacking some decent runs from the forwards. Godden frustrated with his team mates again failing to see the pass. I'm not sure what the issue is but we need a settled side and a change in...

    It's interesting that Faz had a day to forget, and the team conceded a poor goal from a cross. If one of those many chances in the first half dominance had gone in, the flood gates would have opened and we would all be talking about how good that away performance was and the playoffs. Fine...

    Match Thread Bristol City FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 21st Oct

    Oh come on. Bristol were at sixes and sevens for 44 minutes. We dominated, played good quick fire football and were giving them a lesson. It just never went in. That's football sometimes. The second half we just lost our way compared to the first. I always thought if we scored the floodgates...

    We have a missing midfield! That will hurt us if those that play don't really step up to the plate. System and who starts is going to be crucial. This is not a match Godden will get much change from unless he has the support of a stronger midfield. It may be a game where we need to hit a front...

    Have to admit Blackburn go home a little unlucky tonight. We made them look good. No midfield to speak of when Kelly went off. We won't get away with that on Saturday.

    Godden's running into space, drawing defenders for others to capitalise can't be underestimated. It's not all about scoring. he was screaming at Simms after Simms blasted over when Godden had made the perfect run and would have scored with a through ball. You have to look at the whole...

    We got what we deserved. Poor overall. Nothing gelling. We miss our better players. Not enough ebergy from anyone tbh. Kelly MOTM says it all. Not seeing it yet. We have a run of games that should be points on the board. Silver lining? We didn't lose.

    It's all bit flat and low key for me. We've got the lead but we need to do more.....

    The season ahead......

    The 11 that started last night against Cardiff are not going to be the first choice 11. That's why we must keep calm and wait for a settled side Robin's is working towards. High priority would seem working on Simms and Wright and getting them up to speed. Atm they look way below what was...

    From what I saw of tonight, Robins is understanably angry with his players. A game where we looked lost at times, yet other times as though we could step up and take the game. It was a dire mix of errors and a team selection that did not pass muster on the night. Ayri is a class act that needs...

    Time for a win to progress the early season. I'd put Sako in place of a striker. Or perhaps palmer starts there.

    Signs are looking good

    I am sure hamer's replacement will be arriving in the January window. Jury is out on the two strikers we signed but by all accounts they will be very good at this level, so we need to see how they improve over the next few games. We have a strong squad in depth. It will start to click better...
