Daniel Wales reports as Bristol City lost 2-0 away from home in the Championship against Wrexham, meaning they were unable to build in their impressive 3-0 win over Swansea City at the weekend at Ashton Gate. The loss leaves the Robins one point and one place outside of the Play-Off places, with inconsistency being their biggest issue at present.
00:00After their encouraging 3-0 win over Swansea City at Ashtongate in the Championship at the weekend,
00:07Bristol City were brought back down to worth with a bump as they were defeated 2-0 by Wrexham.
00:13Goals from Nathan Broadhead and then an own goal from Bristol City keeper Radek Witek saw the Robins lose in Wales.
00:21With Gerhard Struber very disappointed.
00:23Yeah, of course, it's disappointed. In the end, we have so many fans with us today, more than 1,000 fans with us and push us from the first, second.
00:34But on the same time, we realised a very cheap goal, how we concede this goal.
00:39This was in the end, yeah, makes me really unhappy.
00:44And on the same time, I must say, very critically, it was not sharp enough to score goals today.
00:50We have really good transition moments, but we were in front of the goal, not always ready.
00:56Our decision-making was, yeah, has not the thrill like normal.
01:03And then you cannot pick up points here.
01:05I think Wrexham is a tough place, but we have to do it better.
01:10Wrexham was indeed a tough place, as Gerhard Struber put it.
01:14Bristol City huffed and puffed during the 90 minutes, but ultimately they could not score.
01:19And force their way back into the game.
01:22As with last season, this inconsistency is once again plaguing the Robins.
01:27Under Liam Manning last campaign, Bristol City often had good performances, but didn't win.
01:34And now this season, they are having some similar issues.
01:37And they find themselves in a similar position in the championship table.
01:42At present, they are one point and one place outside of the playoffs.
01:45Last season, they just scraped into the top six right towards the end of the season,
01:51but bowed out at the semi-final stage of the playoffs.
01:54Gerhard Struber will have higher aspirations for the Robins this season,
01:59but whether they can get rid of the inconsistency, that is an issue for them, remains to be seen.
02:06They are doing all right at home, but away from home,
02:09they must improve if they are to be one of the championship's top sides.
