CHARLTON (A) the verdict ..... a point that was fully deserved in a bitty display
Forever Bristol City PodcastShow Notes
City were sluggish in the early stages at The Valley and deservedly fell a goal behind before Twine's penalty equaliser.
Not a great performance with the main talking points being more appalling refereeing decisions and just how good, or not, is keeper Sam Tickle - a worldy save from Knibbs at the end which secured the point but worryingly inconsistent in certain aspects of his game.
