    We deserved that win. Two goals from dead balls for them. Other than that they didn’t show much against us tbh.
    Ball, Conner Wood and Akpan for me played great.

    But we still conceded 3....

    Massive win. But we have obvious areas that lack quality. If we don’t strengthen in the next 3 days then we’re really up against it.

    Think it's what he thinks Rotherham owe him not our side.

    You do throw the towel in a bit early.

    Really enjoyable game, and what a finish.

    Here's to you Mr Ball what a finish, was certain we'd thrown it away.

    Some really good performances but punished for some terrible defending, still thought we were good value for the win. Going forward we actually made some poor final balls and finishing or we could have scored 5 or 6.

    Thought Akpan was top drawer today after one of the worst individual performances I've seen against Southend(didn't see the Burton game)

    We need to cut out the sleepy defending though.

    Faithful Bantam get a life! We scored Four and took three points. Massive result moment of the season and one that could change it for the better!

    Maybe Rotherham want Doyle in part exchange?

    Smashed my phone screen when they equalised. Went mental when we got the winner. Huge win but really shouldn’t have got to the point where we needed a last minute winner.

    We deserved the points too. Made it harder than we should, but that's City.

    My point was we conceded from an amazing free kick a penalty and a good goal. They didn’t do much else.
    I feel like our problem is ball, Payne, and O’Brien all jump into tackles leaving our defenders exposed and our defenders back off.... a lot.
    If Akpan doesn’t turn up we are fecked. Thankfully he had a good game today.

    Well, as things stand, yes. We’re in the bottom four and haven’t strengthened anywhere near well enough this month. We’ve run the club abysmally for a while now and deserve to be where we are.

    That late winner could be huge though.

    We’ve clawed our way into contention with several teams but we can’t waste the opportunity. Strengthening the squad is a must.

    The free kick went in on the keepers side. I’d have to see it again but whilst it was a good strike, my first impression was that OD should have done better.

    Just caught up on other results as well, improved dramatically from the last time I checked.

    He wasn’t saving that.
    So who played poor today then.
    Other than Doyle
