Prince of 'medium' pace with a dodgy knee, lodway legend and hates losing. Bristol City, Pill United, Lodway Cricket Club and Gluten Free

@robinoverhere1 I do as well. It didn’t end well….

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@TurtleDaveT @DanielHealey20 @bcfcgal @kpcider Also the collective leadership Vyner, Dickie & Atkinson bring on the pitch cannot be underestimated

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@ForeverBristol1 You are missing the point Questions - how many other championship clubs would have Tanner / Borges as their starting CBs? Did we think Burgzorgs 2 goals & 2 assists at Boro would replace Anis output?

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@TheExiledRobin Also required to mitigate the risk of injury to NE

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@OSIBPODMAG Is Pring fit? In a back 4 he surely should start. I like Borges as a wing back but lacks that bit of pace

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@ForeverBristol1 Much more depth and our changes impacted the game. Despite our depth our right hand side in the 1st half was very poor & there are limited options to change it up. McCrorie a big loss tonight.

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@TheExiledRobin I don’t think it would have taken much to move from an ok to a good window. I think even going back in for Jacob Brown would have offered a different dimension up top. Im assuming he’s now fit as gone to Pompey in the window.

@BristolCityFM This is the clubs Ellis Short moment

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@AnalysisBCFC @KaiserBCFC_ @connor150344 I get your point and GT can get away with playing CB when you have 2 of Vyner, Atkinson, McNally, Dickie alongside him. What also didn’t help was his defensive support was Sykes….

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@AnalysisBCFC Dickie needs pace to play along side him to be effective in the championship IMO. Knight well off the pace, not sure if this is form or taking a while to get to match sharpness post injury

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@Turtletuvs I think playing full backs at CH and an attacking midfielder at wing back and losing the pace of Vyner will always expose weakness against most championship teams.

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@eddiesphone @BristolCity @fever_uk Think it’s more to do with no CBs and Knight having a shocker

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@BristolCity @fever_uk Sykes & Knight OMG…

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@TheExiledRobin 2/2 for the last 5/6 years I don’t think we’ve had the right football expertise running through the spine of the club. Pearson & now Struber can see the faults behind the scenes and ultimately no matter how many Kodjas, Semenyo, Scott etc we will struggle to make the next step

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@TheExiledRobin 1/2 Started supporting City as we slid into div 2, 3, 4. 6k gates on a good day back in div 4. Club has come along way & SL had done a great job cementing us in the championship. So can’t fault the investment in players and infrastructure but our lack of pedigree makes it tough

[Steve Bennett @Sbeno1971]

@asentance @afneil I may have missed it, but why is no one asking Reeves/Starmer what level of growth is required in the UK over the next decade to start balancing the books? My assumption is this is at least 3% + PA.
