You think they eased to a win there? I think they were INCREDIBLY fortunate. 

Granted it doesn't help that we line up a clown in goal, but there's nothing they can do about that. 

I think were a soft bunch... we were more resolute and hard to break down before christmas.

a week off should recharge the energy levels and we`ll win the annual pne (its our cup final) though i never want to see buckley and that arthritic lump forshaw in a blue and white shirt again

It's been a miracle effort to get into the top 6, (everyone has given their all) but this squad's quality is nowhere near Playoff standard.

We will finish nearer the bottom 6 than the top, unless the Venkys have an epiphany.

It's too late now. We've thrown away about a third of the season in this December / January / early February stint (even if you sign players now they're not going to hit the ground running) with no reinforcements. 

We'll be relieved to finish mid table when we call time on the season I think. 

[DE.]

The points we accrued during the first half of the season should be enough for us to scrape to safety in the end. I have no other expectations at this point. 

[davulsukur]

Should have put my mortgage on Twine and Wells scoring 🤦‍♂️it was obvious.

Anyway, as always #VenkysOut 

We're on the slide and we won't see a playoff place again until the new season table is out for next season.

When you lose Travis and tronstad that's what happens.

[Polky]

Bit harsh to blame Pears for the second goal. It took a decent reflection and he was wrong footed. 
 

It seemed in the second half that every shot we had was blocked by a Bristol City player. They have one that deflects into the back of the net.

I think our GK has thrown two into his own net - otherwise they've created very, very little. 

That should have been a draw at the worst. A fully fit team and we win that comfortably - and that's including the fact that Dolan and Hedges are tosh out wide.

Your statement was incorrect, it wasnt a chance, it was a fluke and likely off target.

We take a similar shot and somehow it doesnt go in and deflects away from goal, i guess that's luck on the day or lack of it.

I'm not having it that it's purely down to luck. It's not like it's just this one match where we've been out-scored but not out-played by the other team.

We had plenty of chances to win today.

Liam Manning giving it the big ‘un with the fist pumps to the home end after watching his team luck out and offer basically nothing all game is funny. Absolute nothing club, Bristol City.

I agree ..but we have to acknowledge that we now are “ a nothing club too “ .

I stopped feeling the pain 2 seasons ago when I didn’t have a season ticket for the first time in many years…I feel numb to defeats ... we’re a car crash of a club and will continue to be whilst under the present tenure .accepting it has eased my pain on a Saturday night. 

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Its a Carbon Copy of last season and the season before and the one before that.

The sound of shyte hitting the fan.

It's not the same team. We're missing Tronstad and Travis badly.

[neophox]

Only consolation Middlesbrough and Watford keep loosing too..... so were still right up there.....but the clubs made a mess with this as usual!

[G Somerset Rover]

One win in nine, six losses out of nine. Three defeats on the spin. Whichever way you look at it, we’re going to be bottom half before long - at best. 

The only slim consolation I see right now is for the first time in yonks 99% of our fans online are pretty unanimous in that Venky’s/Pasha/Waggott need booting out of Ewood with a king sized rocket placed right up their arses. Refreshing to see despite the odd idiot/bot/plant still doing their bit.

We all know who's to blame. Them family friendly, passionate, fund backing, walker supporting, legacy lapping, cunts from India.

Curse of the Death Spiral. Our standard season fare served up at this time of year.

More ridiculous than a bit harsh.

[broadsword]

The only common denominator for these repeating patterns of falling away sharply is the owners. We've no more crown jewels for them to sell. Barring a miracle next season well be going down

And those two cowards in the boardroom.

[neophox]

Its quite obvious we need a striker ....an Nahki Wells who knows how to score in this league....

Who cares, he took a shot and it somehow went in.

The point is that we have the likes of Dolan have had chances and either taken too many touches, too long to get a shot off or their shot has been way off target.

When is the last time we have scored a direct FK, I honestly can’t remember but think maybe BBD. We have conceded two in the last 3 games !

Agreed, can't see any positive comments about that Pasha cunt, the fat controller or the ultimate cunts 

Hope at some point they're turned on at Ewood, we need to make these cunts loves hell until they fuck off 

[roverblue]

Didn’t follow today and expected a more convincing beating if I’m honest. Squad needs help and fast
