I though Brizzle were fairly decent, by no means the worst side that have come to the Amex this season.
Very much this. Their system caused us problems but they fell down by having 3 lumps as the centre halves in a 5-3-2. Caused a lot of problems going forward but pushed their wingbacks so far forward that they left their cloggers exposed too often. A system that worked well in League 1 but appears to be too cavalier for the Championship. Preston played a more conservative version of this formation and looked much more solid but Bristol were far from the worst side.

Bristol city was the only game so far, where I felt there was a real chance we could lose the game.
Definitely not the weakest side we've played this season

Hull get away with a decent penalty shout..
Elliot Bennet brought down, free kick just outside the box given. yellow card.

Preston were crap, absolute crap. They had a future England goalie between the sticks but that was all they had about them, the team was atrocious and they're inevitably going down.

Elliott Bennett playing very well in the "worst team to visit the Amex" that are beating the league leaders. Has BG ever been more conflicted?

Good job we did not sign him, or else it would have been 1-1.

Sadly, frequently.

Hull dominating after the Brizzle goal. Still think they'll win this game tbh. Bristol City defence doing their best to gift Hull an equalizer.

Having seen Hull and Boro in the past 2 days Brighton have nothing to fear at all.

This is a really average league this year.

Can't see Bristol City going down at all - I said it before our game, after our game and will believe the same even if Hull completely turn this around.

Spot on. Overall still one of the best teams to visit so far this season
