C'mon. We're playing JRC at RB - he was unplayable under Mowbray. Hedges looks like our best player and couldn't get a game last year.

He's improved a lot of players - he just doesn't have enough good ones to play THIS system... but he's determined to stick with this system, so it is what it is until Broughton pulls his finger out.

He's a dreadful manager with zero clue of how to manage a game on any level... but we won't get rid because the club is a shambles.

He didn't, took him off for Carter after the red.

[Mr. E]

We were struggling before, but after the world cup break we have completely and totally collapsed in terms of any kind of shape, idea, form, desire. I don't know what sport we're trying to play, but it's not football.

Managers want time. But things keep getting progressively worse and more hopeless. I see no signs or clues of any kind that the this team can play well under the current direction.

Well he was right when he said we'd see consistency after the break at least!

Brereton-Diaz hasn't returned from the World Cup break - he was our only consistent goal scoring threat. That's the difference - missed a sitter again today.

I'm not watching, but I'd imagine the sensible move here would be to bring on Garrett or Travis for Buckley or Morton. 10 men, momentum against us, tired legs...need to be able to break up their play and kill time.

They won't because it'd take a miracle worker to improve some of them.

[Rover_in_the_South]

As dramatic as it sounds I may ignore the rest of the season. Only going one way.

It's time for jdt to go 

Stop talking such rubbish. You need to stop overreacting to every little thing

JDT is doing a very good job and in fact overachieving for me. 

 

[Crozzy]

All well and good you want to play a certain way but when you don’t have the players for it surely you have to adapt and change to suit. Not good enough from JDT for me

Yep and maybe Dolan for some energy.

I would take both off and bring Garrett and Travis on. Be solid here and get the point

You don't sound much of a supporter.

Dolan for Dack, maybe? Just to bring some energy into the pressing. 

We're not getting cut through in midfield and we don't have any fresh legs to bring on at FB so we're kind of hamstrung with regards to changes.

It does feel like this could be the elusive first draw of the season...

[roverandout]

Bbd hasn't had a good game for months. Not too bothered about losing him

[Sweaty Gussets]

Kicking off at Brum, fans on the pitch in front of the Dir box. 

[garnersfags]

BBD played consistently well until the West Ham game, but for me hasn't performed to any level since, in any game.

Bizarre brick wall form collapse, highlighting our total reliance on him.

This week is pivotal in our search for a guaranteed goal scorer. 

On the game, one quality goal every 3 or 4 games will not get us in the top ten.....

Fuck em. No sympathy for any club after what happened to us and how the football community responded.

Course he is. 

[Exiled_Rover]

These Bristol City commentators begging for the softest penalties you'll ever see after getting an incorrect 10 man advantage for 20 minutes - beggars belief, really.
