Huge result - sounds like a match that explians both why we have been struggling, and why we might just have enough to stay up. Well done the lads, and the fans. Boring stat, but played 12 teams twice now. Same result in nine, and better in three, in all cases turning previous draws in to wins. Just what is needed.

OTIB will be quiet tonight - we won.

Was half listening to it, and pretty sure he said Stevenage had come back to lead 3-2 at Ashton Gate - I did take a double take myself!

Its not the despair that does me - used to that - its the hope!

Result everything today, so happily will take that. Will wait for feedback from those there to see how we played. Did not like the line up at all, but blimey we needed that.

Bristol City Vs Sheffield Utd Match Thread

Interesting post ID - would happily add Swindon to that. It really did feel we were about to hammer somebody. Just a series of almost laughable mistakes costing us point after point, but we were competitive. Really felt we just needed maybe a little tinkering, some confidence, and heck, a little luck! Equally some poor efforts at home. We then not only decided to bring in a new manager, but it is clear now one with a completly different approach. I had assumed he would bring in some confidence and self belief, a bit of fiddling, and we would be ok. Fact is we are were we are. The only chance we have of staying up is with the current manager, as we are not going to change again this year. Just feels really deppresing right now. With the exception of Orient, we have been as poor for a run of games now as we have been all season. Looks grim. -
I must be the only one in isolation did not mind that interview - he is clearly spitting at the performance, as he should.

Bristol City Vs Sheffield Utd Match Thread

Disappointing, depressing, familiar. Looks increasingly like 4 from the bottom 5, and on current form just not going to be us to miss out. Must pick up 4 points from next two games.His new spine of the team hardly seems to be making any difference. Indeed we are getting worse. Were do we go from here. Feel sorry for the fans that went. Expected us to lose, but give it a go and be competitive. Another weekend ruined. -

Must confess I do not feel confident at all. They have won their last four, and what seems to have got overlooked from their midweek game is they rested a fair number of first choice players! Really do not see them featuring in the bottom four come the end. Being optimistic, 1-1. A little side show - their McQuire, a regular, is one booking away from a two match ban. If he were to pick that up today (or Tuesday) he would be sure of making their cup QF. Hopefully he can overcook it... -
The times I have seen him, what I have admired, even when coming in for obvious flack, he is one of the few players who do not 'go missing' even if the team are doing badly. He most likely is at his level in this league, but always has put a shift in when I have watched. Never going to beat five players when the ball is by his feet, but can become a vital part of a settled defence, when he knows what his role is - and where the goalie is! Fair play to the man - the goals are a great bonus.

That is great to hear. Should not forget Oldhams form recently has been half decent. If I am frustrated, its that El playing better in the centre should not be a huge suprise and should not have taken that many games to discover. Anyway, lets hope he can settle down now, and well done to Flint. Sounds like he could even have won it late on.

Its depressing reading the thread before kick off when the line up was out, and how many fans called this then. How bloody difficult is it to be just bloody average in this league?
