He does indeed.

Charles....hmmmm

[Bad Wolf]

Charles again ffs

[Saint_clark]

For all of City's supposed "dangerous" play, we look completely comfortable at the back. We'll win this.

Common denominator is absence of Flynn Downes.

Yes, was just thinking that. Some players you don't realise their value to the team until they're missing

At least we’ve established who tonight’s scapegoat is.

Give over, he's been the worst player on the pitch. 

Great build up play and eventually run from Edozie there but then he shits himself when it comes to the cross. Shame.

[vectraman]

I think we are doing ok. In control, we will get a goal and go on to win. City are shit and offer no threat going forwards at all.

How is it a scapegoat when it's true??? Charles has been awful the worst player on the pitch

Friday nights V WBA also on live Sky

Usually ends up with a MOTM performance or a screamer goal from distance so there's hope for him yet.

Don't write off AA just yet, not sure where the goals are coming from tonight?

Brooks curler and Smallbone tap in.

[igsey]

Charles has swapped with Smallbone who is now the 6.

He has indeed, but like most fanbases we do love to apportion blame and responsibility when things don’t go our way. Not sure its always productive.

Good, he was crap in the 6

Well played Baz

I believe you mean, 'is the prelude to', precludes would imply the oposite.

[Colinjb]

Well done Baz

[CB Fry]

Let's get in half time at nil-nil and reorganise, and fingers crossed Swansea get that equaliser second half.

[Mr X]

Other than edozie hitting the bar we haven't threatened their goal in nearly 40 mins 

[trousers]

Assume we'll see Stu Armstrong on for Charles at half time?

[Chez]

some horrific passing, some lovely passing. 

wow. What a tackle by Baz. 

[AlexLaw76]

Great tackle by Bazunu

I don't think it affects anything whatsoever. 

[obelisk]

I'd like to see Saints pick up the pace in attack.

Damn in before the edit! I meant conclude 😁

[Jack]

Too many risky passes from Baz tonight for my liking. 

[Saint_clark]

Piss poor decision by Bazunu there with that pass.

[Bad Wolf]

Wow Bazunu!

[BotleySaint]

KWP a delight to watch.

Well done tonight’s scapegoat 🙄

[Mr X]

Bristol city have us sussed this half 

[AlexLaw76]

Another one by charles

[GrumpyYorkshireSaint]

Baz impressive with the charge out tackle then his distribution lacks again but he was put under pressure.

[adrian lord]

One thing I can conclude is that everyone's streams are lagging by significantly different amounts!

[DT]

It’s all a bit dull. 

[igsey]

Stuart Armstrong the only alternative midfielder on the bench, I think Charles will get 15 minutes in the second half to buck his ideas up before he's hooked.

What definition of 'scapegoat' are you using?

 

[SNSUN]

Quick one before half time please Saints...

[Bad Wolf]

Charles and Smallbone need to go off at HT.

Could easily be rectified with less needless passes back to him.

[Saint_clark]

Was THB moaning at the forward players not making runs there for the counter? 

[Harry_SFC]

Armstrong is poor for us as a number 9. 

Charles has been absolutely horrendous and Smallbone not much better.

Rothwell and Brooks look decent.

[AlexLaw76]

Play like this at WBA and they will beat us

[Saint Matty 76]

Kind of game where Alcaraz could’ve been useful maybe.

Definitely going to need a Stu impact off the bench.

Really poor finish from AA.
