Ex Player Mark Sykes goes to Bristol City.

And without the leather chaps.

That's between him and his conscience . . .

And without the leather chaps.

They're in 'Noddy has an adventure' nowadays.

I'm sure that we'd want to reach the max points total possible and not throw a makeshift team out there as if it was the tinpot trophy or something regardless..perhaps the powers that be would pass on the fact that it hasn't gone unnoticed that certain players need to stay on and acknowledge the fans.

Absolutely, put them in manacles and chains, and force them around waving to fans, with a cattle prod.

To be fair, those were his first two goals for them, and he's got no assists yet. For someone being played predominantly RM/RWB, that's not a good return.

I assume they weren't playing him properly for the first 20+ games he played this season where he didn't get a single goal or assist?

Is that the first time in 21 games that Bristol C have 'played him properly' ?

I did apologise beforehand about my waffling

Never mind we can take him back

I saw the goals and thought it strange that barely a player wanted to celebrate with him, particularly as the first was his first for Bristol City.

Making friends as ever, Mark

He's the player we've mist this season with Williams not far behind.

David Fogg is our most mist ex-player I think.

I miss John Aldridge,Briggs ,Shotton, Bobby Mcdonald, Houghton, etc

Is that right?
It was similar at Oxford. Strange as it is supposed to be a team game.

Yes, most went to the players setting the goals up.

Another goal tonight

Errrrr.....I think he played in the #10 role about three times last season.

He also played LW, RW, RWB, CM.....and just about anywhere else that KR could think of because he had an unbalanced squad, and Sykes is a versatile player.

But I personally thought that the RHS of the front three was his best position.

(although the best 15 seconds of his season was at LW......gives me an excuse to post the highlights of the Wigan game again. 0:25-0:40. Best goal we've scored in years)

didn’t seem to be the case last night

It’s all fun and games until he mistimes his first touch and goes in studs-up on the keeper.
