The answer is 9 in the league, and 12 clean sheets

It is fickle saying 'a top six side doesn't blah blah blah' when in our last few games we have done exactly what a top six side does do and grind out results. In this crazy league there will always be off days and shocks, and what a top side does when those come along is hold fort. Unfortunately we didn't manage to scrape the winner tonight BUT we did not concede (continuing an impressive run of defensive displays), the importance of which we must not overlook.

It's not fickle though. Yes, we maybe defended well(and yes i agree that our defence all season has generally been superb) but i do not think it is fickle saying we play SHITE going forward in one game. I think that is just telling it like it is. Zero shots is still really poor whatever way you look at it.

I'm sure this was intended as a cross. Was at the other end to us, I don't think it was a goal bound shot.

The Last time I went to Ashton Gate, we drew 0-0. It wasn't a particularly great game.
What else happened that season? oh yes, we were promoted via the play-offs.

I am afraid to say I can.
While we are on the subject of reading, please feel free to check these out:
MATCH REPORT - Official website - nil shot.
BBC Sport - Bristol City 0-0 Brighton - BBC Website - nil shot.
Yes, I am. They all lost. We didn't.
Are you getting this or shall I make it more obvious?
Can read but can assure you that was not a shot but a cross going no where near on target. I was there!
so you would have preferred it if we had lost @ Bristol City but had more shots on goal - like Barnsley - both Watford and Forrest lost at Bristol City
What exactly is your point? I am confused.

Was fortunate enough to be a guest in the hospitality lounge tonight courtesy of match sponsor. After match BCFC's MOTM Paul Anderson was v complimentary about Brighton and said will be premiership team soon. Sorts of puts some of the negative comments in this thread in perspective.
Yes we had a bad night, worst performance Ive seen since Brum at home, clueless upfront and all long ball stuff. But we ground out a draw. 25 points from 12 games in 2013, can't argue..

City dropped their top scorer and packed midfield to stop us playing. It worked. We were poor but that does not mean Gus is crap any more than scoring 4 against Huddersfield means he is a shoe in at Stamford Bridge.
