Forever Bristol City PodcastIPSWICH [A] the verdict ... lost, but we "gave it a go". Is that enough to silence the critics?City twice took the lead before losing by the odd goal in 5 against rampant Ipswich Town who, if they maintain this form in the last 10 games could well go from League 1 to the Premier League through back to back promotions.At least City fans saw they side put in a decent performance with goals from Mehmeti & Conway and Max O'Leary managed to save a penalty but there has to be questions over Liam Manning's in game management through the last 15 minutes of the game when some shithousery was called for and bringing on King to calm...

Forever Bristol City PodcastHULL CITY [H] the verdict .... Robins maul Tigers in 5-goal thrillerBack to back wins for the first time since February, City sent truculent former player, and now Hull manager, back up north with his tail between his leg as they fought back from 2-1 down to claim victory.Penalties are like buses these days, none for ages then 3 come along at once. Conway sent the keeper the wrong way for the second time in a week but his outfield play is giving some cause for concern.Manning has shown faith in Mehmeti and this was rewarded with a much awaited goal from the Albanian and...

Forever Bristol City PodcastOxford Utd. review ..... Knight brace shows there is life after ScottNo sooner had the dust settled on City’s emphatic win over Oxford than there was news coming through which the fans had been dreading for weeks that being the departure of Alex Scott to Premier league Bournemouth. Ian, Neil & DaveP discuss the game which banished the negative thoughts in the wake of the disappointing season opener vs. Preston. Knight playing in a more advanced role looked a very different player to the one presenting a stuttering performance on Saturday. Mehmeti showed some nice touches and control in his game. Wells showed his striking prowess whi...

Forever Bristol City PodcastMAN. CITY [H] the verdict: honour in defeat on a night to rememberIf the unbeaten run had to come to an end it was a measure of how well we've done since the turn of the year in that it came against one of the best sides in Europe.Despite being massive underdogs City were well and truly in this game and one could argue that the final scoreline flattered the illustrious visitors.Pring, Kalas & Scott were individual stand out performers in a great team effort and if we play like this for what's left of the season it augers well for 23/24.DaveP hosts Ian...

Forever Bristol City PodcastBLACKBURN [H] the verdict ..... further evidence that progress is being madeCity maintained their unbeaten start to the season with a draw against a Blackburn side who looked quite ordinary even though they have spent virtually all of this season in the play off zone.You just knew it would be against City that the visitors would record their first draw of the season and they took the lead early in the second half before another Semenyo strike brought an equaliser. City did enough to win on that 2nd half performance which saw a strong penalty claim turned down and Bell being robbed by a marginal offside decision...

Forever Bristol City PodcastCoventry [A] ....the verdict: at last we look solid at the backTwo successive away draws at quite difficult venues is no mean feat but it has to be looked at in the context of the fact that we've now won only 3 of our last 18 and this us why we are in a perilous position towards the foot of the table.There are many positives to draw from the 1-1 draw at the CBS Arena, not least the fact that Zak Vyner is looking an accomplished Championship defender alongside Rob Atkinson who has responded positively to the "tough love" comments of his manager. Throw in the improving form of...

Forever Bristol City PodcastSTOKE [H] ...the verdict: play offs not out of the questionAt 3.45 I looked at the league table and thought, hang on to the three points and we're just 4 points off the play offs but the eventual defeat and aspects of our performance sees us looking over our shoulders rather than upwards.A flat atmosphere came to life with Scott's shot that was saved then the Wells, Weimann 1-2 that saw the Austrian hit the post when a goal would have been a just outcome. The goal from Wells, his 8th, was down to a superb cross from Pring. More of this please45+2 and King loses...

Forever Bristol City PodcastSwansea [H] ... the verdict - City deserving of more from entertaining gameIan, Mark & DaveFevs join DaveP in reviewing a decent display against a team in form who, quite honestly, flattered to deceive despite having 72% possession.Injury & illness meant City started with a back three of Tanner, Vyner & Pring. Whilst it might have been different against more physical opposition as a trio they did very well with Pring voted as MOM.When Tommy Conway put City in front with a well worked goal it was just reward for a sparkling opening, indeed, if early chances been converted the game would have been won before the half hour...

Forever Bristol City PodcastBlackpool [A] review .... on balance you have to take a cup half full view?To twice come from behind and take the lead with 20 minutes remaining has to be seen as a creditable achievement on a ground that is hardly amongst City's favourites but then mistakes by King & Naismith to leave Vyner as the patsy in the last minute meant that the points were shared in this 6 goal thriller.The closing 20 minutes was a disaster and undid the good work in a match where City could have been two up before the home side's 7th minute opener.If sending Semenyo on with half an hour remaining was an inspired...

Forever Bristol City PodcastThe Shape of things to come?DaveP, Mark, Ian & Lezz wax lyrical about City's performance at the CCS as the second win of the season was secured with a 2-1 success.Nigel opted for height with Baker in as a straight swap for JDS as a left back rather than in a 3. Baker alongside the increasingly impressive Pring gave City a particularly strong left flank.Two superb strikes by Weimann would have most saying he was MOM but we thought Massengo ran him close with an energetic display and a sublime back heel which allowed Semenyo to cross for goal No. 2.

Forever Bristol City PodcastNigel can dance now! City win for the first time since MarchA first win in 13 league games was secured at Reading in a performance that showed both how good City can be and at the same time the weaknesses that have been prevalent for too long.Two classy goals gave City a 2-0 advantage inside a quarter of an hour before sloppy defending gave Reading hope before the break. Alex Scott's first assist set up Weimann to complete his brace but then former loanee, Liam Moore, scored late on after being allowed to run 60 yards unchallenged which meant backs to the wall defending in the closing minutes.

Forever Bristol City Podcast"You'll never win anything with kids" - last half hour vs Celtic offered hopeThose words were uttered by Alan Hansen in the mid-90s when Man Utd had a young side bristling with the talent of Beckham, Scholes, and the Neville brothers and whilst the likes of Pring, Massengo, Bakinson and Conway are not quite in the same league ability wise I saw enough in that last 30 minutes against Celtic to invigorate my enthusiasm for the coming season. For me the more experienced line up that featured for the first hour brought back memories of last season and who would argue that the game in its later stages was played at...
