SHEFF WED. [H] the verdict .... routine win, all eyes on whether board back Struber in window
Forever Bristol City PodcastShow Notes
After a dull first half City despatched Wednesday to another defeat with a couple of well taken goals. It was expected and quelled an undercurrent of dissatisfaction that had been building through the week on the back of poor results and a perceived view that as far as the board is concerned this season is done. That view is based on the exodus of players culminating in Mehmeti's move to Ipswich.
