[fifty shades of blade]

Dracula in goal for city

 

[Kevincarterversion2.0]

Peck, Moore and Brooks are well off it. At least Vini and Coops are lively.

But Moore still scores them goals!

 

[Younger Dryas Blade]

For a big lad, he hits the deck frequently.

And the back of the net it seems.

 

[Mendi]

Going to Wembley. Bristol City have had a great season.

 

[espoo blade]

Nice header by Morre to make it 1-0.

Their GK is really bad though.

Cannon with some sneaky shirt-pulling on the keeper

 

[GKhantRebel]

Props to Tommy Cannon as well, as he did very well to not foul but put the 'keeper off. Lovely header by Moore!

Brilliant Blades!!

Think it’s gone exactly to plan and what would have been expected.

They have nothing to lose and would come out very positive and with plenty of possession, we’ve sat back, not dived in, no silly fouls, let them have the ball and just been cool about it, clearly on the coaching staffs instructions. Then take control. Great game management.

 

[Younger Dryas Blade]

Moore needs to go off so we can start playing football

 

[Jan Age]

Last 25 minutes we’ve been the better team …midfield picked it up and it shows.

However …

Cannon off for o’hare or even Campbell - game just completely by passes him like playing with 10. Regardless of price tag he’s shocking

 

[Rufus Smalls]

And the back of the net it seems.

Lovely header.

 

[drblade]

Now I need to divorce my Mrs, so I can leave my holiday early and go to Wembley.

UTB.

 

[Jan Age]

He’s been very quiet. Vini doing some good covering for him.

Benefited from that break when he went over and spoke to wilder … picked it up since then

Maybe rest him second half ?

He's trying to hard, there's a player there

Cannon is looking better. Decent effort early on, still think there's some learning to do on his and the teams part in terms of where he wants the ball and where he is and needs to be.

What odds on him bagging in the 2nd half now?

 

[ml1997]

T. Davies for Peck, O’Hare for Cannon, JRS for Hamer. As I’ve said, take hold of the ball and punish whenever they gamble, which they’ll have to.

 

[drblade]

Peck's celebration after Moore scored

What a lad.

 

[GKhantRebel]

Cannon with some sneaky shirt-pulling on the keeper

Haha! I completely missed that until the replay, even better!!

 

[Belvedere Blade]

 

[robbiez666]

Been a bit of a struggle but but job done. Now take off Moore and Hamer.

I'm surprised One not on the bench to swap on for Moore as they have no height

 

[Belvedere Blade]

 

[Blacksea]

Great last 15/20 minutes to make up for the shabby opening part, started to step into them,cut out the errors and put some good crosses in,they immediately folded and we took over and scored with a classic header.
Earlier they were getting far too much room to do what they do best and we just didn't get our tackles in,losing 50/50 tackles and giving them too much space around the box,as if we hadn't worked them out after 3 first halves where they did mostly the same every half,played around and through us but they would be dangerous if they had a half decent pair of strikers.

Yep.

Just do it at half time.

Don't mess around waiting for 10 or so mins
