What the hell were sky smoking!? Bamba was MOTM by a clear mile, he was putting out fires left right and centre literally as our full back's were terrible. Bamba was terrific tonight. Ralls was ok, but that was it imo seemed to do his usual thing of running around a lot and passing sideways. I do like Ralls but Bamba all day long.

Ralls grafts hard and we are weaker without him.

I agree I thought Ralls played well but no better than Damour or Laing or Hoilett imo, but Bamba was on another level I'm just wondering how sky didn't see that :ayatollah:

Ralls had a great game tonight and has been 7/10 in virtually every game this season, mostly playing without the Viking beside him to help him out.

On another day he would have had a couple of goal tonight..I think he was MOM but agree Bamba and Holliet pushed him close

Don’t normally agree with their MOTM when we’re on, but did tonight.

I thought Ralls was crucial to most of our attacking play in the second half, and his passing was great - especially in the second half.

Bamba very good also, and a close second for me.

Hoilett for me, he's an absolute nuisance.

If I was playing full back against him I would get skid marks every time he took a touch. :laughing6:

Correct. Ralls is a decent squad player for me. Damour, Gunnar, Bryson & Tomlin all better.
I've been one of his biggest critics this season but to be honest he is growing on me. :bluescarf:

ralls was quality last night, but it was bamba for me.

Bamba was immense, deffo deserved motm.

That said, ralls was very impressive; popping up everywhere and never making a mistake. I don't usually get to watch us since I'm in Scotland, but I see ralls get slated a lot. If that's the type of performance he gets abuse for, then it reaffirms just how little clue some posters on here have.

Just watched the game (recorded) and have to say Sol Bamba for me! :thumbright: :ayatollah:

Performance wasn't as bad as I was led to believe (mainly by the meltdown from the usual suspect plus Ross (Tonteg Bluebird) on here!

A draw away at Reading (particularly after being 2-0 down after an impressive start from ex-Jack Mo Barrow) is no bad result and City's scoring run continues

Still second, still with a gap to those behind and still moving forward...

C'mon City! :thumbup: :ayatollah: :bluescarf: :bluebird:

Ralls was very good but Bamba was magnificent. Hoilett had a poor 1st half but much improved in the 2nd, as was NML. Some great ball retention and passing around the angle of their box.
