Think we’re safe from relegation

3 more points to make sure

Matt smith · 2025-12-13T17:23:36+0000

That’s a massive three points

how nervy was that towards the end

SIR ERNIE · 2025-12-13T17:24:08+0000

EMC was impressive.
He looks a threat every time he gets the ball and goes at defenders. They bounce off him and if he doesn't get a cross in, he's created space for Torp, Grimes or Rudoni behind him on he edge of the box.
I was a serious doubter but he's won me over.

People are allowed to be frustrated with poor finishing and poor individual performances.

I thought the fans around me were moany as hell today.

Rudonis fucking shit, get him off
JDS is a liability fucking shit
Eccles should have started
Grimes all he does is go sideways
Mve always gives it away
Rushworth good keeper and but can't kick for shit
Bobby Thomas should be taking the long throws mve is shit

All heard near me today!

Emotion isn't an excuse. Some fans don't deserve the success we have got. Although tbh sounds like they ain't enjoying it anyway!

Much needed win. Massive 3 points, we're in a very strong place right now. Let's be honest, we'd all have taken being top at Christmas, and at least 9 points clear of third place with a far superior goal difference.

Wonder what their usernames are on here?

skybluecam · 2025-12-13T17:26:10+0000

Looked edgy today. Hopefully just nerves after 2 without a win.

Bristol City have always been a twatty fanbase

I’d be even more of a twat to be fair if my team was very close to being as boring as Preston.

If someone believes that Grimes only goes sideways, I would be looking to approach the club in order for them to be issue a lifelong ban to that supporter.

Get his row and seat number.

You have to, not least just for the sake of humanity itself

Tom, petty?

Liquid Gold · 2025-12-13T17:32:08+0000

Did what we needed to even though it wasn’t pretty.

Bristol sat so deep it was hard to break them down even though we showed a lot more impetus.

Rushworth MoM but nobody let themselves down. There are a lot of tired legs in that squad though. Could do with some quality in Jan for rotation.

Rushworth. If you’re going for it, you HAVE to get it. He flaps at too much.

Man of the Match.

Need to be careful about cutting off the blood supply.

Teams are just going to sit and make it really hard for us. We are just going to have to work it out. We can be as wasteful as we have been when in wide areas. So runs and those making late runs will be key.

I agree though to some extent about throw ins though,a bit of unpredictablility.

You gonnae go through the thread and quote everybody who wasn't convinced we were going to hang on so you can look like the greatest Coventry fan ever?

Keeper saved us.

shmmeee · 2025-12-13T17:41:10+0000

Feels like we’re missing a few runs that we’d see earlier on that gave us that bit more aggression and flooding forward. I’m sure it’s a fatigue issue.

Franks beaten two manager of the month curses. What a guy

pusbccfc · 2025-12-13T17:46:28+0000

Huge 3 points. We aren't playing great, but neither is anyone else. We are at the stage of the season where everyone has injuries, illness and tiredness.

Any win at this stage is huge.

Liquid Gold · 2025-12-13T17:47:13+0000

Atmosphere definitely not what it was in my day.

Still great that it’s busy.

Read the reasoning you sausage.

That's another "Would be very helpful, for several reasons, to win" game ticked off We won't be seeing any "must win" games this side of the spring equinox

SlovakSkyBlue · 2025-12-13T17:54:18+0000

Good 3 points I didn't think we'd get, however we've lost our killer instinct, we need to rediscover it, it don't seem like Middlesbrough are going to slow down anytime soon.

Wright needs 1 goal and then he will to on a streak but at the moment it just is not happening.

A lot of people were panicking. I could see us finding a ray of sunlight and punching through the clouds, but it was nervy today and we had to be patient ultimately.

There seems to be two extremes, calling everyone shit, and now because we won, over exaggerating some performances.

I thought we looked quite laboured in places, and a few players maybe not quite sharp. However, both Thomas and Kitching, along with Rushworth were brilliant in my opinion. I thought MvE and JDS looked off it, so I'm quite surprised to see therefore that the latter is getting such glowing reviews.

In the end though, we had a couple of shaky performances recently and I think it was important to win today. We did that, and I think the rest of it is therefore pretty irrelevant. Hopefully it can give us the step up for this busy Christmas period.

Really quiet and a lot of early leavers.

And the player of the month settles for 10 minutes.
