Look, sylla will always be frustrating to watch but he scores more than anyone else in our team. He has terrible body language and he's pretty lazy and he doesn't 'do' physical....you just have to accept that and not act like he's commited a sin every time he plays, because that's his game. He just finishes, and when he has a change, he does that better than anyone else in our team (which isn't saying much ha ha ) |  | | |

Unfortunately it is well documented that our strikers are the biggest issue with this team, took my boy today who rarely goes and thought Sylla was as poor as he has seen at this level, compare that with them putting a centre half up front in the second half that caused us all sorts of problems. There has to be a better option for us either with a current loan player or a youth.
Fortunately the rest of our team has a lot of quality.
Not sure what to make of Bristol city as offered nothing in the first half and just went long in the second together with a blond guy with an enormous long throw | | | |

Isn’t Robinson getting closer to Sylla’s total now?
No real shout outs about him this weekend, did he do any good? |  |

Referee has been very, very good this season but that was pathetic yesterday. The penalty was the second of three occasions he'd obviously decided what decision he was going to give before the set piece had been delivered - he penalised Smith just before that at the other end for a non existant offence almost before the ball had even been kicked.
Then turns his back on the play after the ball has gone in - cardinal refereeing sin - so completely misses Flint smashing through the back of Onuoha sending him flying into the net.
Absolutely awful. |  | | |

He looked solid enough to me and comfortable on the ball... we were also all sure that he scored our goal (which was given as an own goal on BBC). | | | |

Exactly my feeling as well. From where I was sat, it looked like the two City players tripped over each other on their way out of the area (admit I still haven't seen the highlights). Didn't get it at all.
As pointed out before, what a joke when the ref talked to the lino for about 2 minutes after the goal before doing absolutely nowt and carrying on as normal for kickoff after Onouha is pushed onto the floor (he's a big lad as well so I reckon that was some shove) | | | |

It was an own goal.
Surprised the ref didn't disallow it. | | | |

Penalty looks even more of a nonsense, and the Flint shove even more of a red card, on the highlights to be honest. I was hoping I would watch them this morning and be able to see what on earth it was given for but there's nothing there. | | | |

For the first 20-25 mins, I thought Andy Madely, recently one of the best referees and giving his usual sensible high standard of performance. Then about 10 mins later I said, "his mark is gradually going down". From then on it just got progressively worse and towards the end it looked like he was looking for things to give, hence the penalty and other decisions. Yet by the same token not strong enough to take action against the barge into the back of the net on Onuoha.
Very bad day for him and bad luck for us getting him. | | | |

He didn't see it, as soon as the ball goes in he turns his back on the penalty box full of players and starts bolting back towards the half way line. Amateur hour. | | | |

So these letters that Ollie talks about in his after match interview. This will be the 4th he reckons. I wonder how many other teams have had and if it all evens out. 4 penalties we've either not had or have been wrongly given against us would potentially make a huge difference to our league position. Not many people would be moaning about very much if we had say 6 more points. |  |

Only seen the pen live, from a long way away looked a pen to me.
Honestly can't remember a throw in/corner that was wrong.
Sylla? You're having a laugh - to get a fk you need to actually challenge for the ball.
Standing there and throwing your arms in the air won't get you a decision. Thought he was really poor today.
Smith was a little better, but not much.
As others have said the Bright and Freeman subs didn't work out - strange decisions. |
Quite a contradiction in that first sentence Pinner.
It is impossible to state that it looked a penalty from "a long way away". If you had said that you had no idea IF it should have been given, that would have been fair comment.
I arrived home saying that I had no idea if it was a penalty & that I could only assume that it had been given for a push. Having seen it again on The Championship, I'm now sure that it wasn't a penalty & have no idea what it was for! The only push appeared to be by one Bristol player against one of his team mates. | | | |

Like everyone else I didn't see anything at the time, and I can't see anything on the replays.
If it was for a bit of pushing and shoving then every corner is going to result in a penalty. |  |

Apart from the bizarre corner award against Pav in the first half I said to my dad how well he had reffed at half time. Second half he seemed to have been replaced with a totally baffling ref who gave almost everything against us, including a penalty where Flint actually takes his own player out and then misses that push on Ned in the aftermath, plus a whole host of non-existent awards for fouls against us and then allows diving to go unpunished. It was almost as if he had been replaced by his evil twin at half time. Completely baffling 2nd half performance, which, aside City's extraordinary missing of chances and Smithies's brilliant saves, denied us 3 points. |  |

How on earth did it look a penalty? Two players on the same team running into each other. Mental. | | | |

Having seen the TVs footage, that is clearly a ridiculously incompetent call. Good tactic by the opposition to knock a teammate to the floor, could catch on | | | |

As northern said, the Ref turned his back and didn't see the Onouha Barge, I can only assume the Lino couldn't be sure who did it, otherwise, it would have had to have been a 2nd booking. | | | |

That 2nd half performance was embarrassing. Added to which, following the pen afters could a ref look any more co@k sure of hisself after talking to his colleague, taking no action and then slowly strutting, chest puffed out to half way line and the restart....... arrogant pr#ck. |  | | |

I've still not seen any replays (been wrapping all afternoon) but anyway I was sat in the school end yesterday and had been watching Flint closely as for the previous 10-15 minutes prior to the penalty as he'd been throwing himself all over the place, whining at the ref and generally 'acting up'. For me the two City players fell over each other, no question. Also very tellingly absolutely no protests from the City players at the time. In fact myself and those around me took 10 seconds or so to work out he'd even given a pen. Absolutely ridiculous. |  | | |

Watched the replay and I stand by my first reaction: 'What the actual fcuk?!!' |  |
