Man, couldn’t the Blues have scored a little earlier than the 87th? Talk about clinching it late. On a side bar, blues fans, what’s the best way for me to watch/listen to the matches here in the states? I couldn’t find anything for this match.

With that being said, it’s great that the club’s website puts so much into the reports. It makes it easier for me to give a good report, though I’d like to watch some, to give you guys a better report.

Anyways from the club’s website: “We were missing a lot of players through injury and for us still to go out and produce a performance like that was fantastic.

“I thought there was some powerful front running from Bent and Jerome, who made things difficult for the Bristol defenders; if you run at defenders, it makes them uncomfortable.

“Our delivery from set pieces was sensational and we could have had four or five goals off of those, Jaidi was unlucky on a couple of occasions and the goalkeeper made one particularly good save.

“But to get the goal as late as we did was a tremendous relief and there was no way back for the opposition.”

Up next for the club Southampton on Saturday at St. Andrews.

    As for radio, it’s worth trawling justin.tv? It may be someone with a microphone to the radio, but it’s the best you’re gonna get!

    It’s getting tight up there at the top, all three of us lose, then all three of us win! Never a dull day!

    With Bent and Jerome off injured today, does that mean Costly is your only fit senior striker?
