Hernâni puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Bristol City, and it is not being withdrawn.

Jason Knight in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Bristol City this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Jasper Cillessen gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match3 Mar 2029

Bristol City run riot against Reading

4‑1, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Squad5 Mar 2029

A one-man rearguard from Illan Meslier

There were 8 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Boardroom5 Mar 2029

The scrutiny sharpens at Bristol City

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Bristol City is running low.

Nobody could get near Nicolás Domínguez

Successful dribbles: 24. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad5 Mar 2029

Jason Knight signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Jason Knight and Bristol City agree another 4 years.

Squad5 Mar 2029

Jason Knight is carrying Bristol City

10 goals and a season average of 7.47. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

Player ratings5 Mar 2029

Jason Knight in the eights

A performance of 9.19 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Player ratings5 Mar 2029

A masterclass from Sam Greenwood

Marked 8.77 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.
