Bristol City vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Wardy's twin]

Bristol city manager gave a good summary. I thought they liked OK.

 

[WATFORD zero]

I believe that Brighton & Hove Albion have never had a better squad

But I've only watched us for 50 years so what do I know

 

[Ernest]

Basically that was men against BOYS with our best player unable to play

The manager is pretty special too.

City could well be top 6. Some real experience and a great striker in TA. Both teams really looking to stretch the other, fantastic display - but two moments of quality are the difference.

Bristol are a very good team, and to limit their chances the way we did is nothing short of exceptional. Sidwell my MOM, but special mention to Dunk and Duffy - I've never seen a better CB pairing in my time following the Albion. But then it's only been 20 odd years!

Fantastic praise from the Sky boys, especially Holloway, this afternoon. Great stuff!

I'm beginning to like Holloway - he's always singing our praises.

Looking solid and worthy of going up this year, what a squad of players we have right now.

Hard to imagine a better day than this - we've beaten a top 10 team without our 2 class acts Knocky and Beram - great work by the team.

Then I read Barnes downed Palace and Wood is helping Alex Niel get the sack and thanks fella for the vital 7 point lead!

I'm in far away Belgium - may watch Club Brugge tomorrow

We still have same points (34) as before international break last season.
GD is +9 better... (+16 compared to +7)
5 out of the top 6 remained in the top 6 for end of the season, 3 out of the top 4 on November 6th were promoted.

We secured 9 points of the next 15 with home wins against Charlton, and Birmingham & draws v Burnley, Derby and QPR.
Our next 5 games are Villa (H), Fulham (H), Cardiff (A), Leeds (H) and Blackburn (A)

I am a little refreshed, but there is something about BHAFC this season which I haven't seen for a long time, if ever. We were very good last season, but we have taken that as a base and improved on it. We are positively stingy at the back and score a lot of goals. And we play sharp football. Long may it continue.

I think it is more CH praises on what he has done and got us to achieve.

Some tricky fixtures coming up but I'd back us to beat Villa.

 

[BBassic]

Great result but for me the best aspects of this result are the return of Solly March who looked like he'd never been out and the love and respect shown by the team for their bereaved brother.

It's time to believe.

 

[BensGrandad]

Special mention should be made of Steve Sidwell he has been immense and we haven't missed Beram Kayal.

 

[Simster]

Some tricky fixtures coming up but I'd back us to beat Villa.

Indeed, and it won't be close. We will batter them, 3-0.

We have a stronger squad than last season. If you ignore injuries just look at this alternative starting 11
