Lovely goal by JET. Quite impressed by the Bristol City midfield so far, good young players.

JET really should be playing at a higher level, great to have him here although if he keeps playing like he has so far this season I expect him to move back up the ladder in the summer.

There are definetly some good young promising players in our midfield who can all move the ball well which bodes well for the future.

As for the game, good first half performance I thought but second half got scrappy once Rovers started pressing the ball more. Two great finishes though, hopefully we can start winning some league games now and start pushing up the table.

Honestly, that was one of the greatest nights in my life.

Admittedly my first Bristol derby, I've never experienced an atmosphere like that before, and I wouldn't be surprised if I never do again. I didn't use my seat all night, and as the game kicked off a few people started to sit down, so que the rest of the Atyeo breaking out into a chant of "Stand up, if you hate the gas". I got home and my ears were ringing, my throat was sore and my hands were stinging. I couldn't have been happier. Only two Bristol boys in the City lineup, Joe Bryan & Bobby Reid, but they were both outstanding. Chuffed to bits for Bryan to score the winner, I nearly hit my head on the roof of the stand when it flew in.

To put the cherry on the icing, I had a bet on with PaddyPower for City to win 2-1 with JET to be the first score at 45/1. Only threw on £2, walked away with £90. Happy days.

Jet says #WED!

Sounds like you had the time of your life, congratulations! One day, one day I will hop the pond and experience all of this gloriousness for myself. I am admittedly jealous.

I'm also not quite sure how to take the draw against Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday. It means we've got 5 points from 3 games which isn't bad considering the teams we've played. We've got a difficult opening fixture list so I'm trying to keep neutral (ish) until after about 7 or 8 games.

I don't know what's up with Wolves, they were good enough to go up last year and completely fell apart, it just goes to show you how fine the line is between winning and losing, especially in the Championship which to me is THE most competitive league in Europe.

Wolves got what they deserved for running Mick McCarthy out of town.

DAVE JONES OUT!
Him and his poor team selections(saying nothing of his transfer purchases) are killing Sheffield Wednesday. How in the world do you lose to Doncaster at Hillsborough. Pathetic. Richie Barker please come and save us!
