BOF Posted April 6, 2017 Moderator Share Posted April 6, 2017 Meanwhile, in Bristol Quote Bristol City players to refund fans after 5-0 loss to Preston North End The loss, the Robins' heaviest in a competitive game since 2011, left the club one point above the Championship relegation zone with six games to play. The 386-mile round trip from Bristol to Deepdale was made by 312 Bristol City supporters. The Ashton Gate club are 21st in the table, having lost 18 and won just four of their past 29 league games. I'm still wondering where on earth they pulled that 4-0 win against Huddersfield out of the other week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be on Sky Sports website as that's where I saw it. They can't comprehend it. At one point they're suggesting there was a foul. Which is impossible because the ball is dead. Then whenever someone says "it was given for encroachment", Stelling says "YEAH BUT THEN THEY WOULD HAVE A RETAKE!!!1111!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huddersfield are capable of that though. I was at craven Cottage back in October when they got spanked by Fulham 5-0 and they were utter turd that day.

Matt Ritchie converted a penalty for Newcastle at St James' Park against Burton but it was ruled out and a free-kick awarded to Burton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're usually tight as a nun's gooter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was on telly on the players we're putting themselves in the shop window. i have a colleague at work who supports city who says Johnson lost the dressing room months ago but the chairman won't sack him as he only recently awarded him a new contract. the players aren't playing for the manager (similar to Leicester) but showed what they could do on sky....

BOF Posted April 10, 2017 Moderator Share Posted April 10, 2017 Dwight Gayle could miss the rest of the season. The only remaining piece of schadenfreude I can take from their season is if they're beaten to the title by Brighton. So I guess I'll have to root for that.

I think the money plus Benitez have to go together. If not given a budget he might walk before season starts. Except Ritchie and Shelvey the rest are far from Premier League quality.
