Where did that second-half performance come from? It was a Good, Good Friday in the sunshine in the Potteries, that saw Bristol City win for the fifth straight time at the bet365 Stadium.
Lots of fans that I had spoken to before the game (and you know who you are!) expected nothing from the game, what with our recent run of results and the form of Stoke but two from Zak Vyner and Anis Mehmeti after half-time saw Nigel Pearson’s side claim an impressive win against the Potters who were still harbouring aspirations of a play-off place after an unbeaten run of five games which had seen them score five at Sunderland, three at home against Blackburn and four at Coventry City.
It’s funny how you get runs of games like this in football. It doesn’t seem to matter what the form table looks like; some teams just seem to have the hoodoo over others. Just look at how long we went before beating Preston North End.
