    Reckon they were hoping Sky would pick it up rather than them having to make the call.  Far too close to the date of fixture to make a change like this.

    Makes no difference to me whatsoever, but lots if impacted groups, ie those that travel, kids teams matches, etc.

    Piss poor.

    If that's what they were doing (and I agree it's very possible), Sky announced their selections for that weekend on the 2nd Feb. So they've left it another week and a half after that before announcing a change to the time.

    Not good enough, and I reckon the club making it very clear in their tweet that it's a police request shows their feelings on the matter.

    Always nice to beat Wales but both games today could have gone either way. The officials decided the games. Meh

    The guy doing the England game was out of his depth. Some very odd decisions for both sides and had no idea how to manage the scrum.

    Had no idea Nathan Jones was their manager! Bloody hell, what a drop from last year…….i know he’s a manual manipulator, but didn’t think he would end up that far down.

    Today was his first game. He's got Curtis there to keep him in line now.

    Knight at Derby is interesting as it seemed in his early days as if there were goals in him and still clearly are but seemed to be an element of diminishing returns in this regard. Will also perhaps have had something to do with the chaos off the pitch and the steady decline of the team on it.

    League Only

    Derby

    Championship

    2019-20..31 Games (20 Starts)- 6 Goals, 0 Assists

    Bristol City (so far)

    He was also being played all over the place at Derby, wingback etc.

    I am really pleased for Rob, it will have been 8 days shy of a year out. I know he had that 45 minutes in November, but I am sure he would have expected to have been back before now. He has been in full training since 28th Jan, so he's probably more prepared than you might think.

    He's been through a lot away from football too, (sorry to be so mysterious) so I am sure he is itching to get back tomorrow. 

    Manning did say that they could probably get away with putting Rob on the bench for the first team tomorrow, but it'd be better for him to get the guaranteed minutes for the U21s, plus they'd be unlikely to sub a CB unless they were injured.

    Nope, that’s probably our allotted four.

    3 against top four sides & one to knock off a game for Rotherham & ourselves.

    Incredibly unimaginative by Sky.

    I reckon they might show the Leicester game on Good Friday. It's already been moved to an early KO.

    I've looked at it again now and with what I saw with my own eyes I definitely think it was hand ball. 

    Looking at the highlights tho I thunk there may actually be two handballs. One from Origi who was credited with the goal and possibly from the No 8 aswell. But that could just be the camera angle. 

    But as we are little Bristol City we'll never get to see the VAR video. 

    I can only assume that VAR didn't have an available angle to definitely say it was hand ball. 

    The bit in bold is the key point. Because they've not given it on field, the VAR has to find something that would overturn that call. We have to assume they haven't been able to do so.
