Both excellent.2 Assists for Hamer and Moore keeps us in the game with some massive stops.

Nice to see we agree for oncePretty much the scores I would give
O’ Hare dreadful , behaveKane & O’Hare 3 - Dreadful
Hamer 8 - Instrumental in both goals, but gave the ball away a lot
Moore 8
Maatsen 7
Rest 5 or 6
Robins 4 - Left changes too late as per and decides to bring on Shipley of all people.
The last minute winner does not detract from the fact it was a piss-poor second half performance.
I thought Gyo did well. He had a real battle all night, but was a real handful for their defence. Always a nuisance, always looking like he could do something.Hamer and O’Hare outstanding , Vik frustrating but scored the winner , Allen and Kane disappointing . Encouraging performances from Bidwell who looked solid and Maatsen playing out of position
Agree with all of this Martin - although I thought Allen was very good until he tired after running his socks off for the team.Hamer and O’Hare outstanding , Vik frustrating but scored the winner , Allen and Kane disappointing . Encouraging performances from Bidwell who looked solid and Maatsen playing out of position
Allen disappointing but o'hare outstanding? Not sure there was anything in it to be honestHamer and O’Hare outstanding , Vik frustrating but scored the winner , Allen and Kane disappointing . Encouraging performances from Bidwell who looked solid and Maatsen playing out of position
Totally agree , for me he was too blame for much of the Bristol City pressure . He struggled to retain possession and his distribution at times was abysmal , kudos to him for keeping going and finishing well when given the opportunitySurprised with the high scores for Vik, thought he was poor in possession tonight and looked absolutely knackered which reflected in his decision making on the few times he did get the ball to feet. Was there when it mattered most though and was a good finish.
I felt frustrated with his inability to relieve the pressure by holding the ball up and some simple passes were waywardI thought Gyo did well. He had a real battle all night, but was a real handful for their defence. Always a nuisance, always looking like he could do something.
O'Hare 7
probably should have scored that chance he created for himself. Still involved in everything we do. Bust a gut to make a run alongside Hamer for Gyokeres goal.
He is being praised for running when we are on the attack.
I will day O'Hare all day over you.He is being praised for running when we are on the attack.

They also have “come on you refs”Moore 8
important saves, never feel nervous, lovely hands.
McFadz 7
he's slow, but pace doesn't matter when you look like he does.
Hyam 7
used to come accross as meek. Now he's become much nastier in a good way.
JCS 8
very tidy. I'd mark him down because he was a bit sloppy last ten mins but probably exhausted.
Kane 4
sorry mate, wasn't your day. We haven't given up on you though.
Dabo 6
decent cameo and didn't even look that rusty.
Bidwell 6
still doesn't look confident, but looked better than in his previous games
Allen 7
decent enough and plenty of energy, sometimes not on the same wavelength as his midfield partner. Should have come off on 70 minutes when he looked like he was dying.
Hamer 8
two big assists. Yes he doesn't help keep possession like your boring midfielders, but he did what he was meant to today. Also, covered a lot of ground.
O'Hare 7
probably should have scored that chance he created for himself. Still involved in everything we do. Bust a gut to make a run alongside Hamer for Gyokeres goal.
Maatsen 8
great finish. Could have had another aswell to be fair.
Gyokeres 8
for some reason I knew he would score that chance. Less involved today and another one that looked knackered. Great celebration too.
Shipley 5 didn't really get too involved.
Bristol 8
First game we played them they looked shite. Much improved today.
Saw some amusing comments on their forum about our "drawl". Imagine saying that when you sound like a farmer and your fans only have one song, "come on you reds", which can only be repeated constantly when you're not losing.
