Bakayoko is just not a natural goalscorer. Hasn't got the mentality, decision making/speed of thought that someone like Godden has. There was a chance in the 2nd half where we were counter attacking and got a cross in from the byline. Instead of busting his nuts to get near post and in front of...

Didn't mean it to be quite so burny as it sounded, sorry @cc84cov. I see your passion for city through your flip flop in emotions between extreme excitement and end of the world frustration! I'm glad you've decided to attend some St Andrews games. Robins also spoke about Pask's injury too, so...

Robins was asked directly about Herbie Kane in his prematch interview having said he still wants to do a little bit of business and he refused to confirm or deny it. He then said that there's a number of players he's interested in and that the loan market is strange with Premier league and cat 1...

I thought we made Bristol look worse than they really are but my word, a spine of Tom Davies, Ogogo and JCH is sloooooow.

I don't think the same level of connection is there between Jobello and Dabo just yet as there is between Mason and Hiwula. Obviously on the left they've already had a season together and Jobello's English was non-existant when he joined. We had some good success down the right vs Bristol but a...

Yeah, he was playing well at the end of the season but it seems a little more than just continuation of form to me. In the first half of last season I didn't know what he was - defensively he was a bit rash and wayward so didn't seem like a defensive fullback, and when he got forward he was...

I joked in the match thread about what the fewest goals conceded in a league one season is. It does look like a very solid back 5 and with Kelly in front of it we are not going to concede many. A lot of room for optimism as Kastaneer and Allen get up to fitness plus a well recruited loanee or two.

Bolton parked the bus and Bristol played with a diamond so he's been given a lot of room to express himself. Looks a lot more confident and decisive on the ball this year.

Did you see Davies squeeze Kelly's nuts just before the corner that they had a goal disallowed from? :emoji_joy::emoji_joy:

It wasn't far off the equivalent of putting him into Bolton's team now. Anyone with value had been moved on, the remaining first teamers were refusing to play and the rest of the side was a youth team.

Oh my. That touch to bring the ball down over his shoulder by Dabo and then the flick....

Clive just burped.

Mcfadzean just headered the ball 30 yards clear from a standing jump. Love that.

What's the league 1 record for lowest goals conceded in a season? :emoji_imp::emoji_upside_down:

We really are able to play total football from the back now. It's very nice to not be concerned about which of the back 5 are on the ball looking to pass!

Great first half that was. Got stronger and stronger as the half went on. Everybody contributed something to the performance and they've nullified a very solid Bristol team. That's Shipley's forte, getting into goalscoring positions from midfield and that was a superbly placed finish.

All the goals we haven't scored today have been disallowed so far. But he's done the same for Bristol. So fair.

Don't think I've ever seen a player at this level win as many balls without going to ground as Kelly does. His anticipation to nick the ball off players toes or just make an interception is incredible.

CWR commentary 2 seconds behind the play though, very annoying!

Dabo been very solid too today so far and got forward well. Not sure why he's had as much stick as he has this season.
