Watched Bristol City v Barnsley today. Pretty rubbish game settled by a goal mouth scramble poke in by Morris, his 3rd in the last 3 games for Barnsley. First time in his career he's scored in 3 consecutive games. He could have played for us 600+ games and not scored that many City are in freefall but unfortunately for us they are 10pts above.
