What was all that nonsense with the Bristol City coaching staff getting booked?

Can't tell from the highlights if Tammys disallowed goal for offside or handball when he controlled the long ball? Not a criticism but said it after the Blackburn that we still need to be more clinical in front of goal and put teams to the sword...should have been 4 or 5 given the chances we missed today.
Looked offside at the time and the flag went up straight away

The ranting from their bench and the subsequent hold-up really affected their momentum as they were on top at the time. Another solid performance and should have scored more.

Was it a penalty? Bristol fans all going crazy about the ref today.

Yes as it was given :P

But I hope it was a shocker just to piss them off.
From the upper holte, it was nailed on.

What a brilliant performance 2nd half, tempered with a few brainless spells, we by and large dominated 2nd half and could have had 5 or 6.

Negatives

The goal we gave away was poor. Attacking, Taylor and El Ghazi were excellent, but that small passage where we didn't clear the ball that lead to the goal was brainless.

I felt Tammy struggled to hold the ball up.

We had a few sloppy bits of play, mainly first half where we were too loose in our defending, giving them time to cross.

We were beyond wasteful in front of goal.

Positives

We dominated 2nd half. We upped the tempo and murdered them down the left.

El Ghazi cut in and ran them ragged, Taylor cause problems on the outside.

Hourihane was always popping in the box and could have had a hat full.

We did it without Jack and Mings. Psychologically that's huge. The belief in this squad is self evident as the quality. Hand in hand, that's a potent combination.

A massive 6 pointer won, absolutely brilliant. Fair play to their keeper  he stopped it being embarrassing. Lee Johnsom is such a gimp. Moan about the officials when you have one attempt on goal. Off you pop.

Max loved it again. 100% record, so when you combine it with him not having a season ticket for next year, we'll surely win the title with the luck he brings.

Gobbling off/aggressing the 4th official and encroaching the pitch area repeatedly. A right bunch of goons. Lee Johnson lucky not to get a booking too.

Their reaction to the penalty should see them charged with failing to control their players, as they mass protested in the face of the ref.

Got to give a shoutout to Neil Taylor, who I thought was excellent today, both going forward & defensively. Linked well with El Ghazi, who looked dangerous throughout. Should have won by more & more wins will do it.

Good to hear .
I mean I seen from highlights he smashed ball against opposition player and then didn't prevent cross coming in from his side but perhaps his whole game was a lot better.
Seeing him v Rotherham midweek early on was awful falling on ball.
I would say he's still a concern for me especially on his defending and the part he played in the goal being conceded.
That said hear what you're saying so it's good there is part of play that's being recognized and certainly been more solid overall in this winning run!

I thought you weren't coming back until the Norwich game, Footy?

Or until Kalinic was picked to play in goal.
