City need to sort this frailty at the back for next season.. really poor lack of concentration time and time again has to be sorted.

Yes but a minute before Kodjia gets himself caught offside for the umpteenth time today, if he doesn't and we hold the ball at the right end...

I really hope Lee works with him on this for next year.

Gutted, but they are in good form & might end up a very good point.

Here's to Brentford beating MK next week to keep us safe.

Pretty sure a Brentford draw would do it.

We're safe.

true enough... need all parts of the pitch sorting!! But relief we are playing Villa next season and not Stanley; what a difference that sounds.

Freeman reckons he was foul on the lead up to that goal and protested, but the ref was not having any. It will be interesting to hear what LJ has to say about it.

And another

Bristol City. Peter Odemwingie tries a through ball, but Jonathan Kodjia is caught offside

Was the one that turned over possession just before their goal. Easy in hindsight and all that, but happens to often really not to be a 'thing'.

On balance, 0-1 would have been a bit of a smash and grab, so will take what it is.

Yeah, I highlighted all from the BBC live text during the game, it was 5 times in the end that he was caught offside, to be honest at his age in the position he plays you would think that would be one of the basics you would have nailed.

Well said and a draw away from home not to be sneezed at.

Absolutely.  And considering that despite leading against them in the first half of the season they comfortably beat us that day, this is progress.

Yup.

MK Dons (possibly with a third choice keeper) have to go to Sheffield Weds on Tuesday and win.

Then they need to repeat that against Brentford at home and Ipswich away.

And at that point they'd still be a point behind us going into the final match, and only if we've lost all the other games.

Sounds like a big ask, but even more so when you consider they've have won only once in the eleven games since we beat them.

We will need to complete implode to go down now, and even the most negative of us must see that is unlikely.

I'm breaking out the liquor tonight!

You've jumped ahead without considering Tuesday's games mate. If MK lose away to Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday we're safe (apart from maybe Charlton who need to win all 4 of their remaining games and overturn a far worse goal difference) :thumbsup:

You're quite right.

And we could realistically draw three and lose one now and stay up, which is a situation we could only have dreamed about a few months back!

On way back from the game now and I feel happy we got a point!

We did not deserve all three points tomlin used his magic to score and other than a great chance with reid beating the keeper we looked second best. Brentford played some good footy and rarely lost the ball in position.

The only negative from our performance was that we struggled to keep the ball in the final third

Everyone else was flat, it happens, one point was a steal for us

It's actually quite nice to be able to take a point from a game we were poor in.

Earlier in the season we'd likely have got destroyed under similar circumstances.
