We should have won that.
Brilliant goal by Ollie Tanner to give us the lead and Bristol fans were getting frustrated.
Colwill and Tanner missed brilliant chances which should have gone in.
But the decision by Riza to change to five at the back gave them the momentum.
It is further proof that he shouldn't get the job full time.
Will gladly take the draw because we could easily have lost in the end, but without those changes I believe we would have won.

Have to agree. Perplexing decisions by Rizla, perhaps he'd been smoking some rollies at HT! He'll need to explain his negative reshape - should be interesting.

Ironically. Opposite tactics to Erol. He would bring on the match winners, but Omer starts with them and takes the lead. Then went over cautious to protect the lead.
Not sure whether I’m happy or sad about it.

I know it's 4 points from 2 games but I do think that change to a back 5 will go against him getting the job.
We were on top and should have pressed for a second.
I don't mind defending a lead but it was too early to go to a back 5

I'd have taken 4 points but he can't be having the job, give him the U21's if the new management team is a full complement.
If he wanted Daaland on then Ralls or Robertson off and chambers sitting was the call

Tha is why he will not be our new manager

On the plus side, Rubin really grew into the game and if you were an outsider looking in, he was head and shoulders the most talented and best player on the pitch

Totally agree Ned

Why are we not giving Riza for credit? I think fans are harsh on him Probably an error to switch to 5 at the back but in two weeks we have improved greatly. Deserves more praise than criticism.

We've improved but it's not difficult.
He has cost us two points with those changes.

Riza is the new Bulut. We were on top, and he decides to make stupid changes around the 60 minute mark. If the club stick with him, we are definitely going down. There needs to be a clear out of all the coaches at the club along with a few players like Meite, Rino, and sending Kanga back.

He should get credit but he has set his stall out and if he is going to defend one goal leads with a quarter of the game to go, then we will remain in the bottom 3 for a long time.

I can understand wanting to protect a lead but we were in control so there was no need to change anything. The momentum switched almost instantly.
2 points lost...although we should have been out of sight at half time.
I don't want to continue signalling out Chambers but Bristol bombarded our box in that 2nd half and I think its coz he's at centre back. He's not tall or strong enough for the championship. We'll see more and more of this.

The game wasn’t won because we didn’t take the chances - Tanner and Colwill. Bristol were always going to have a spell in the 2nd half and we have no way of knowing what would have happened if our changes hadn’t been made. We’ve kept one clean sheet all season so for me we were always going to need more than 1 today.

Tanner and Colwill chances were massive. At least should have forced a save from the keeper. Definitely two points dropped. Tanner goal quality to be fair.
