The match yesterday, by Bristol City Fan.

Hey guyys :D I'm Jordan, Bristol City fan, 17 year's young   and I was at the game yesterday.

Firstly, you guys were awesome yesterday   and we were poor, like always..

The only problem with you guys, is you weren't too great in the air. Both our goals came from failure to defend crosses, and as well as that, iwelumo dominated your defenders in the air.


However, with the ball on the floor its a different story. You were better, quicker, more creative, better at passing, better at finishing, better vision...
Need I go on?  

That Emmanuel-Thomas, made it look so, so easy. Immense player, can see him being used in the arsenal first team squad in the future

Anyway, I believe the reason we are playing so poor atm is due to the constant changing of tactics and formation by the manager, the low self esteem by the players and the fans getting on their backs, as well as players being played out of position.

This however takes nothing from your performance today, it was cracking. The second best team we have seen this season

BTW - YOUR THIRD GOAL WAS MILES OFFSIDE!! I think you would have gone on to win regardless so meeh..

Good game guys, hope you make a late surge to play-offs, I doubt you will but good luck

Football young man, is supposed to be played on the floor, otherwise it would have been called headball.


I know which way i like the game to be played

And that is exactly why SOD gets time when things dont go to plan - because 95% of Rovers fans would rather see the beautiful game being played in a beautiful way.  Other managers who prefer a more direct aproach invariably dont get that luxury.

just as brian clough said, grass is on the floor not in the air

Having 5 centrebacks out didn't help young man.

Thanks for the positives Jordan! It's good to hear praise from opposing supporters and a bit of positive recognition sometimes. I agree, we are poor in the air defensively, and regardless of whether football should be played on the floor, it is alway an asset to have if you can compete well in the air too.

All the best to BCFC for the rest of the season mate!  B)

Cheers for the comments, nice to hear what other club's fans think - our style of play is a joy to behold at times.

Out of interest who's the best club you have seen this season, I'm thinking Cardiff based on them scoring 6 past you.  

Of the teams I've seen I would say Middlesboro, but looking at the table that probably doesn't hold true!
