The 0-5 home defeat against Derby was bad enough but the outpouring of self righteousness from the club owner's interview on Radio Bristol made it a night to remember for all the wrong reasons.

Players & manager should have done a lot better but the mood instilled by that interview was summed up by the mass exodus from the ground when the Rams scored their 3rd with half an hour remaining and there were even fewer on the final whistle.

After a dull first half City despatched Wednesday to another defeat with a couple of well taken goals. It was expected and quelled an undercurrent of dissatisfaction that had been building through the week on the back of poor results and a perceived view that as far as the board is concerned this season is done. That view is based on the exodus of players culminating in Mehmeti's move to Ipswich.

The ball is now firmly in the board's court to bring in 2-3 players before the window shuts that are not squad fillers but oven ready players that must be to a man [Mehmeti apart] better than what we have - NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS

DaveP, Dave Tovey & Ant Banks review a disappointing night at Portman Road and assess progress in the transfer window which closes in less than 2 weeks.

The result was expected but it was another lack lustre performance with the only memorable moment being a stupendous save from Vitek.

Struber knows where the blame lies for lack of attracting the much needed additional fire power up front and with talk like that he is now treading the same tightrope as Nigel Pearson did when it comes to criticising the hierarchy.

A very poor game and an abject performance from the team.

DaveP & guests try to take some performances in their analysis of the action along with thoughts on transfer window activity so far with just 2 weeks before it shuts

City went through to the 4th Round draw with an emphatic win against Championship form team Watford.

Riis scored a hat trick and Earthy made his second debut coming on as a second half substitute but the star of the show in they eyes of many was Sam Morsy. What an inspired signing he looks and his effortless style dictating play from the centre circle is worthy of more than the 6 month contract he has even though he'll turn 35 in the autumn.

After the joy of beating Portsmouth it was no surprise that City bought the fans hopes tumbling down with a shambles of a performance on a cold afternoon at Ashton Gate.

There was no period where City were in control in a meaningful way and Preston's goals could both have been better defended.

Less said about this games the better.

Adam Randell's stunning opener is a genuine candidate for goal of the season and when Mehmeti made it two Pompey were as good as beaten then. The atmosphere went flat and the match took on the air of a training game.

The crucial third goal as scored by Twine and then either side of the brace Armstrong actually scored there were enough chances for him to have walked away with the match ball.

Randell & Knight bossed the midfield, Vyner showed his passing ability on numerous occasions and Max dealt confidently with what little attacking threat Pompey offered.

To criticize any aspect of City's performance would be churlish and as the fans swarmed out of the ground at the final whistle many might be thinking that this is our time.

Millwall completed the double over City in a scrappy game to dampen a sense of optimism that was beginning to build after the wins over Boro & WBA.

Both Millwall goals, either side of an Adam Randell strike, could have been better defended and I don't believe it is harsh to say Max O'Leary does not inspire confidence in the back line the way that Vitek does.

Struber got his subs wrong at the New Den and the fans are wondering what's the point of Yu Hirakawa and when will Stokes get some minutes on the grass.

The old adage that things even themselves out over the course of a season came true as two marginal decisions went in City's favour and bucked a trend we seem so often to be on the wrong end of. Mehmeti's opening goal came from a relatively soft shot from outside the box that went under the clearly offside Riis's foot - if you have VAR that is chalked off! The Albanian was then lucky to stay on the field for his forearm smash into the face of the Styles. He got a yellow but again, with VAR , that's a sending off.

Max O'Leary produced two reflex saves in the crucial first half with City's other goal coming from McCrorie but the keeper again didn't dominate his area in the way Vitek has made us accustomed to. Max, along with Tanner did not defend the goal well enough for the home side's strike which meant for a nervous finale, even more dramatic as Grant hit the bar with the very last kick of the game.
