An awful afternoon as Skubala gets shape all wrong
· Yahoo Sports
That was a pretty awful afternoon. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to say to try and make any City fan that's seen that feel better, because you can't.
You can't pull the wool over anybody's eyes, it's plain as day, it's there for everyone to see. That was really bad, it could have been worse - Norwich probably should have scored the sixth.

You take it back to the start of the game, you look at the formation.
Adam Randall (pictured above) didn't play as a left winger. Out of possession City were 4-4-2, but for him to line up in that position, at any stage of the game, he must have been asking himself, 'what am I doing here?'
When City got the ball he played inside left and he drifted, played off the line into midfield to get on the ball, but not for the benefit of anything really going forward.
It just meant Cam Pring had 60, 70 yards in front of him to try and make anything happen on the left-hand side.
You can say that the shape was wrong. Whatever it was, to me it should have just been three centre-halves and two wing-backs, three in midfield and two centre-forwards just to start the game. That's what it looked like on paper, but it wasn't.
That was changed at half-time, we might find out that Pring was carrying something, because then you end up with Rio Cardines, who is right-footed playing left-back, and ahead of him is Scott Twine, who is right-footed playing wide on the left, and Jason Knight who is the number 10.
That for me doesn't work - if Twine is on the pitch, for me, he is a number 10 and you get him on the ball and he is creative.
Fair play to the fans that stayed, they certainly made their feelings heard at the end of the game and those that left, who can blame them?
They've come down here week after week, they put their money up front [and they get], six defeats. If you want to make it even worse you can add in the loss against Walsall at home as well.
It's wrong whatever's happening.
I can't believe it was only a week ago since I watched them win up at Bolton and played well then back to Ashton Gate and we've witnessed two defeats and two poor performances.
