I have been saying to my housemate (a Bristol City season ticket holder) for months that us and them are locked in a a battle to become the most midtable team in the champs. This season I am fine with that - him less so as that’s pretty much every season for them!

There was a period, back in our Farke years, when it felt like Bristol City were about to go to the next level. Never happened though!

The impression I get is that they are quite sorted behind the scenes but Steve Lansdown won’t put more money in for players etc. I am not an expert though - just what various season ticket holders I know tell me

Below are the 17 different midfield three combinations we've used in the league this season, in all its glory.

That number will almost certainly keep growing with the returns (🙏) of Nunez and Kenny.

Inevitably, today was the 18th starting midfield 3 of the season. Went ok!

So looks like our best midfield has only started together twice? That’s the story of the season in a nutshell.

danbrigham.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yep!

I WAS thinking that, and was delighted to find this as an immediate answer to that desire. Bravo.

danbrigham.bsky.social•4 days ago

It’s great to finally find my audience

Just once a fortnight or so, is all I need. Some gentle optimism. A bulwark against the ‘git it forward’ crowd. Thank you Dan.

That's a great piece, Dan. And completely agree with the tone and the gist of it.

danbrigham.bsky.social•4 days ago

Cheers Andy!

andyhumphrey11.bsky.social•4 days ago

You're very welcome, Dan!

radioheadjen.bsky.social•4 days ago

That is EXACTLY what I was looking for, Dan!

danbrigham.bsky.social•4 days ago

Ha, thanks!

Excellent piece Dan. One thing intrigues me, there are very few positive comments about George Long, so what is it that JHT sees that we do not? #NCFC

danbrigham.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thanks! Good question, I guess we don’t really know what Hoff thinks of Long behind closed doors? Contract extension could have been to bridge the gap until Reyes or one of the other young keepers are ready to be no.2?
