Shut the Gate, our horse has bolted - Bristol C (A) 19/03/16

[Bruce Rioja]

4-0. Come on, Pip.

[DJBlu]

All 4 at the back have been appalling.

Feeling sorry for themselves the dick heads.

[DJBlu]

All this bullshit in the press

"We can't stop trying" etc.

Results like this just show that none of em care and it's just hot air.

[TANGODANCER]

To cap it all, lost the stream 15 mins ago.. Two shots on their goal all game. I'm not even bothering with the radio because I've finally figured us out: Play like your three nil up when you're actually 3-0 down, did somebody say, make that 4-0? . That way you don't even have to look like you're trying. They made us look like Tripe United from the Sunday League. Sick as a parrot.

Charlton losing, McDons losing, us losing. I think we've found our bottom three.

It was always us and Charlton. You money ain't secure on MK Dons. There's Rotherham, and a couple of others too, yet...

My money's safe, I don't bet on football. But Rotherham won three on the bounce, then came back from 3-0 down with 10 minutes left to draw with Derby, and are now winning at Ipswich.

Puts paid to the assumption we have a good squad badly managed.

Unless it's been badly managed by two people. JSL.

How many bad managers does it take before the insufficiency of the squad is exposed? My answer would be just one. Two just confirms it.

Well, confirms your opinion. I still say there's worse squads in this division - in my opinion.

[DJBlu]

Blink and you'll miss him.

Silva off for Dobbie.

[Enoch]

Our squad's not so bad.

[CrazyHorse]

Five fcking nil

[CrazyHorse]

Have we got time to score six?

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Five fcking nil

Oh dear me.

[CrazyHorse]

Make that six now.

[CrazyHorse]

I've a feeling my vow of having a weekend off the ale is going to take a hit tonight.

[TKIZ!]

Well, well. Almost up there with 7-0 at Reading

[officer_dibble]

Yet another day of embarrassment. There can be no complaints at 5k crowds in league one.

Mk Dons may well go down, I'm not arguing against that possibility.
Any squads as bad as ours at least have a good manager. Good squads can even to an extent negate a bad manager's more ridiculous decisions. So yes I am arguing that one, but I can't change your mind for you, if you have an opinion that's fine with me, I just see no evidence for that opinion (in my opinion).

[Gravedigger]

And each goal scored by a different player. We must be crap. Bet their goalie gets one in as well.

[DJBlu]

Anyone seen the film Money Pit?
Dean Holdsworth has just peeled back the wallpaper.

-------

Jimmy Phillips has got it wrong today with that back four, I know it's his first game but Derik and Holding had been beginning to create a decent partnership.

This result is probably on a par if not worse than the 5-0 at Wembley.

[DJBlu]

8 on target and 6 go in.

Not a bad return. In fact how shit are they only getting 6 against us.

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

I can't change your mind for you, if you have an opinion that's fine with me, I just see no evidence for that opinion (in my opinion).

The evidence (before today) included the fact that three teams had a worse ratio of goals conceded per game, while no fewer than seven teams had a worse ratio of goals scored per game. We also have (I would, er, wager) more players who have played at a higher level. I insist that this squad is underachieving.

However, many such deliberations are nebulous. Whether the team is shit, the manager/s is/are shit or a combination of both, the unarguable end product is that we're playing shit. Have a good evening.

[Burnden Paddock]

We'll relegate Fulham on the last day, with our first away win of the season. Possibly!
