MATCHWATCH : Bristol City (h)

[Royal_jimmy]

Going forward we look pretty dangerous. I just think we're a bit too open and need to tighten up at the back. Or we're going to need to score 3 goals to win every week

[Pepe the Horseman]

When was the last time we came from 2 down to win?

Dunno, but we've done it against Bristol City at least twice in recent(ish) years.

[genome]

When was the last time we came from 2 down to win?

2017, against... you guessed it... Bristol City

[alfie9]

We are clearly the better team it's a shame we shot ourselves in the foot twice

[LUX]

Z NAL MARKING

May aswell have been anal marking

[Stranded]

Tonight has to be the end of zonal surely, for whatever reason this defence just can't do it well.

Annoying as we are certainly the better team but every time they have a set play, I expect them to score.

[Royal_jimmy]

Fairly tight first half. They've probably edged it.

Definitely not out of the game but can't concede another one.

Mick and Tim saying every goal we've conceded this season has been from a set play. Is that right?!

1st at Stoke was, 2 tonight and the Preston pen. Stoke's 3rd was open play, think the 2nd was too.

[Notts Royal]

Well…where do we start?

2 bang average sides out there tonight. They are pressing us well, but why are we pissing around with it at the back? Moore is very shaky, Rafael very very shaky. Morrison is not suited to playing it around the back. Adie has just suggested maybe he’s past it. Could we be seeing a similar thing as what happened with McShane when he got to a certain age? Hopefully not

Bristol city have no pace going forwards…so why not play a higher line?

Midfield is ok…got better after 20 min. But tempo is too slow

Couple of nice touches by Puscas, but he’s still not doing enough

But the positive is Azeez…you wouldn’t have known he’d only played 3 Senior games. Very promising

This side haven’t got 2 more goals in them though…draw would be a decent result from this position

[Royal_jimmy]

That was so poor

[alfie9]

Release Moore

[Stranded]

I thought defence was meant to be our strong point.

Going to be a long season unless that gets sorted.

[John Madejski's Wallet]

At least that was sh*t defending from open play

[alfie9]

Just blocked Reading FC on twitter. Sh1te club tbh

[Royal_jimmy]

At least that was sh*t defending from open play

And how is that a good thing exactly?

[Jackson Corner]

Oh my god schoolboy defending I have had enough of Parno. 3-1 to a team who have not won for 13 games!
