Re: FT: BRISTOL CITY 0 - 1 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Great win 10 points from 12 and conceded one goal in the process. Played some good sides since the restart as well.
I thought we played some good stuff today. Bacuna class again. The defence is solid, and I thought Bamba did well when he came on. They were always gonna throw the kitchen sink at us after the goal. Tomlin only needs 10-15 to win a game. Happy for Ward.

Brilliant result. Thought we played really well in patches in the first half.
Thought Hoilett should have come off for Whyte who i wondered if he was carrying a knock.
Great 3 points.

If we can get Tomlin match fit and start him every game we'll comfortably finish in the play offs. Also I know Ward only scores from the bench but having his movement up front is so much better than Paterson.

Bacuna has played really well since the season restarted.

Bacuna has been excellent. Today was his best game to date IMHO. Ralls looks a little off the pace, and as others have said, Hoilett not so good, and tired quickly. Thing is, is a tired Hoilett better defensively than a not-tired Murphy ? Bennett also stood out.

Re: FT: BRISTOL CITY 0 - 1 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
The defence and keeper were excellent again, Nelson has become a very good Championship defender this season. The whole team worked very hard.
It’s a dilemma with Paterson, there are calls to start with Glatzel or Ward but both players make a better impact when they come on as a sub than when they start. Probably better to keep Paterson up front than having him as the impact striker
Some players looked shattered at the end- Hoilett and Sanderson looked tired. Ralls Vaulks and Bacuna are not the most skilful but they are very fit and work very hard and Bacuna has a very useful turn of pace
Margins are fine, Bristol city score with that free header and we’re all on here berating the players , instead it’s a great result and always nice to our one over the Wurzels

He does more tracking back than Murphy with one leg :biggrin:
I think NH would have brought Junior off for Murphy but then we scored and he wanted to rightfully IMHO shore up the defence bit Sol needed to warm up.

Murphy was changed ready to come on but when we scored he brought on Bamba and we just defended. Bristol were then all over us for the last 10 minutes! Dangerous tactics but they worked!

The margins have been fine in all three victories, but on each occasion I reckon City have looked comfortably the fitter, stronger and hungrier side, and they have taken some of their chances really well. To me, Derby look the only real threat now as regards sixth place, and they have lost several key players to injury and suspension, so it's looking pretty good.

Derby’s fixture list is Brutal as well.
West Brom
Brentford
Leeds
And us.

It's tough. They had a key player sent off after the final whistle last week, their top scorer sent off for a ridiculous challenge in the 94th minute today and one of their players hospitalised after being attacked and stabbed. The odds would appear to be against them.

I'm sure this has been touched upon but what a save by Smithies to keep it at 0-0, absolutely fantastic

Start one of ward and Glatzel and bring the other on as a sub when/if needed.
I quite like Glatzel with pacy wingers and Tomlin behind so wouldn't be bothered if Ward started and he came on after.
We need movement up too and anticipation.
Paterson is an awful choice.

Yes it was a fantastic save, Wells looked offside but it was a great strong hand to push it round the post

Re: FT: BRISTOL CITY 0 - 1 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Only one goal against in four games since the restart. Defence looking solid....prefer DW over Pats but would he be so effective starting?
Tomlin HAS to start in Tuesday......hopefully Glatzel will be ok....it's a game we must win to create a 'gap'.....

Agreed, Paterson will nick the odd goal but a starter? No chance, we're too one dimensional with him up top. It was a simple run from Ward for the goal but you'll never get that from Paterson sadly

Great result, boys dug in very deep for that. Good subs from the real Neil.
Up the shaggers.
