Being outclassed is one thing, playing to keep the score down is unforgivable!

At no point have Bristol city looked to take any risks which as absolutely pathetic for a team going for a play-off spot.

This calls for drastic action next weekend, we must lose to millwall in order to try to eliminate any small chance of that load of crap down the road sneaking into the top 6

Leeds are a top side, one we've taken 4 points off. Let's hope Bristol sneak in on the last day and get promoted

Preston aren’t going down. No way they will lose to Bristol. Bristol are nice and comfy on the beach.

How can anyone not believe this league is poor? This is the 5th best team in the league and they haven’t even had a shot on target. So so poor.

As I posted further up the thread, looks like their entire strategy is being based on accepting their fate tonight and beating Preston on the last day.


Hope it comes unstuck for them now... :x

But why not take a big risk against Leeds and go for it?

Knowing it might not work and at least they'd have a second chance against Preston.

Instead they sat back from the kick-off.

BC yet to have a shot let alone a shot on target.

2 touches in the Leeds box....compared to 43 from Leeds in the BC box.

Maybe they don’t want to get spanked and end up with a worse goal difference than Coventry. Maybe they were hoping to soak up the pressure and hit Leeds on the break but have inevitably fallen short because they’re nowhere near as good as Leeds.

If they wanted to soak up the pressure and hit Leeds on the break, they've not gone about it very well. Look at Tanaka's goal. The defending has been shocking. So disorganised and soft. Leeds are a much better side, everyone knows that. But like Stoke before them last week, Bristol City have turned up to Elland Road and played right into Leeds' hands.

Alex Neil will have Millwall set up a million times better than Bristol City have been here. Leeds are really good but blimey.

The fact Parker has us on the same points as this Leeds squad shows either we've massively over performed or they've massively underperformed. Leeds should have walked this league with their settled squad imho

Liam Manning is said to be a good manager.

His half time motivational team talk must have been a classic...

I think the first time i heard Wells's name.mentioned was when he was subbed off..

With Scott Twine coming on, I had hoped that Brizzle would be able to string a couple of passes together.

They really won’t, if they come forward we’ll rip them apart.

We’ve struggled in recent times against Neil’s sides. VK’s team drew 0-0 at home and won a very tight game 1-0 away. Good manager at this level and Millwall will be far more organised than what we’ve just seen.

They’re Millwall, not Barcelona and there’s a reason we’re 30 points ahead of them.

100pts, runners up. Great season UTC
