8 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.
Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Bristol City they have already started talking about him in the past tense.
Successful dribbles: 27. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Up for the corner, and Adam Randell delivers — 7.87
Centre-halves are allowed forward twice a season and are judged on what they do when they get there. Adam Randell scored, was marked 7.87, and got back before anybody noticed he had gone.
The offer went to Wigan Athletic this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.
Jason Knight and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Jonathan Smith and Bristol City agree another 4 years.
Wycombe Wanderers wanted more than $36.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Ross McCrorie was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
A brace, and Sam Greenwood takes the afternoon — 9.42
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Sam Greenwood provided it, and the 9.42 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.
A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Bristol City have done the hard part with Lincoln City, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.
6 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.
The clubs have shaken hands with Millwall; the player has not yet. Personal terms are next, and personal terms are where more deals die than anybody prints.
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.
Bristol City offered $270.0K; Burnley said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Words at Bristol City training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Alejandro Pozo is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Jason Knight was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.
“The easiest signature of my career.” Jonathan Smith and Bristol City agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Another one collected away from home
4 on the bounce on the road for Bristol City. The coaches leave early, arrive at unlovely grounds in the dark, and keep coming home with three points.
