Match Reaction: A Proud Bluebird

Don’t expect much of a reaction to this post simply because I am a positive soul.

We went to a ground and a squad of players that is that up there with the best in the world.

We conceded four but who expected anything else?

But who thought City would score 2 goals at The Etihad ?

I am proud of the performances that many of the players put in today and I also thought that Ole was positive in his tactics and selection.

Craig Noone – Take a bow, he was immense today, full of running and trickery and his goal was a special moment for him and us, to get an equaliser at Man City was a brilliant feeling.

Noones run in the second half, chinking past two Citeh players and a shot that had Hart scrambling to make a save was class.

Jordan Mutch is a big game player for us and somebody we will need to be on top of his game if we are to avoid the drop.

I am sure that City fans will have taken heart from that performance and the players will feel that we can achieve our target this season if we continue to give performances like we did today.

We have gone to a side that look like champions in the making and up to the middle of the second half we were very much in the game.

I was a huge fan of Malky Mackay and everything he achieved for our club but I don’t believe Malky would have been as positive as Ole was today. I am not knocking Malky but I must admit I enjoyed the fact we went to the Etihad and had a go.

It’s a tall order to stay in this division but whatever happens I am going to continue to go to grounds like today and enjoy this Premier League season. Proud of the fact that our team is up against some of the best teams in Europe and I am loving every minute of it.
