If most Bristol City fans had been offered a 1-1 draw against an in-form Swansea City side ahead of Saturday’s game, they would’ve certainly taken it quite happily, especially with the injury and illness-ravaged squad at Nigel Pearson’s disposal.
Yet it still feels irritating that all three points aren’t staying in the West Country as the Robins wasted a couple of good chances. Pearson believed that if his forwards were at their best, they could have had it tied up by half-time.
From the first minute, City looked as though they had benefited from having a midweek off, George Tanner finding space to beat his man and put in a wicked cross, only for those in the box not quite able to turn it goalwards.
