Big test now. We keep conceding early second half.

Need to take Hamer off before he blows it.

He’s scaring the hell out of them bombing forward least it’s not just them attacking

Clive teasing everyone by saying if they give that as a handball he's going to give up...

Keep it going lads

It’s a yellow card because it’s not his first silly tackle. Or second!

Five according to commentary.

Expect them to adjust to our selection/shape surprise in the second half.

*Maroshi* is the correct pronunciation, just to confirm. Š is pronounced sh in Czech and Slovak.

Are the languages different? I had assumed it was the same with maybe just a different dialect

SlowerThanPlatt · Oct 30, 2020

Giles and Shipley have had some nice link up

It’s unlikely we’re going to keep them out though so I’d take a point

lifeskyblue · Oct 30, 2020

So far so good. Reading looking slick going forward but not testing Marosi too much. City also look good from the left

Much, much better City. Worried about Hamer and Ostigard’s yellows, as well as Dabo’s overall approach to defending, but that was a better 45 minutes than most this season. Sheaf playing well again, as are the front two and Ostigard.

3 but they are diving on the floor at every opportunity

covcity4life · Oct 30, 2020

Good half. Csnt let silly mistake cost us 3 vital points now

Sick Boy · Oct 30, 2020

Excellent half so far!!

stupot07 · Oct 30, 2020

Good half, everyone's working hard for each other, far more positive in possession, and having 2 up top just helps to occupy their defenders.

Shipley has been excellent with and without the ball

SIR ERNIE · Oct 30, 2020

Excellent half considering the run we've been on. Showed real character.

Marosi is English though isn’t he

shmmeee · Oct 30, 2020

Good half. Max putting himself about well, Shipley getting beyond well. Sheaf is so good, like an extra CB at times. Couple of scary moments from Dabo but he’s light years ahead of his cameo Tuesday.

Get Giles down that wing and there’s goals to be had here. And we’ll need another if we’re to win this.

Even if we throw it away so happy with the spirit we’ve played the game so far.

BackRoomRummermill · Oct 30, 2020

Considering who we are up against a good half by any standard, that should at least give the doom mongers a bit food for thought .... well done City keep it up

chiefdave · Oct 30, 2020

Huge improvement tonight. Standard of officiating isn't much better in the Championship than League One. As much as I hate the phrase do we need to become more streetwise?

Albo · Oct 30, 2020

Audio on Talksport 2.

Johnnythespider · Oct 30, 2020

Good half, Hamer will have to tread on egg shells second half, as will Ostigard.

Always the gamble, he is also probably about the only player who can unlock that defense. Maybe O hare switch if any

ccfc92 · Oct 30, 2020

1000x times better, well done boys keep it up #PUSB

Liquid Gold · Oct 30, 2020

We’re looking good because we’re playing our game. Players look like they have a bit of belief in themselves. Half time came at a good time though with us being pushed back.

Can we get Doyle in to coach Hamer in how to be a shit without getting carded?

oldskyblue58 · Oct 30, 2020

Much better so far

No. He's Slovak, moved to England aged 14.

He's got that funny slavic / east lancs drawl

Skybluefaz · Oct 30, 2020

Hamer getting pelters but someone needs to do that. Take him off on the hour for Kelly then Kelly needs to give them a kick or two

Most Slovaks understand Czech completely, but some of the younger generation the other way round don't.

I have been learning both and there are a lot of similarities. If you know one, generally you can communicate with the other fine.

We don't win many clever little fouls to break play up. We need to learn to make more of things.

It’d almost be worth conceding a penalty

Agree we look more settled on the ball tonight. Not to say that we aren’t going to face an onslaught in the second half!

Greggs · Oct 30, 2020

play offs here we come

mrtrench · Oct 30, 2020

So much better from the City. I can see Hamer getting another yellow though - he's such a twit - what a stupid card to pick up. Dabo's clearly still not found his form or he's unfit. I can see MacCallum coming on at 60 minutes. Better from Shipperz and I think Max is playing an important role here too. You can lump the ball up to him and he'll win the flick on most of the time.

cc84cov · Oct 30, 2020

I just do not want us to come out and sit deep letting Them have the ball we seem to start second half’s very slow

Sky_Blue_Dreamer · Oct 30, 2020

Much improved performance. Far more attacking threat. Still look susceptible at the back but not been punished thus far. Missed our own chances too to be fair.

Maybe the change in formation has thrown them a bit and they'll reorganise second half but encouraging thus far. If we can keep this up there is a fear we'll naturally start to protect the lead and let them have more of the ball and get deeper.
