I'm sorry, but what match were you watching?!
The defeat wasn't that embarrassing. Bristol are the top team in the league after all, but we were by far the dominant side in the first half. Their first proper chance didn't come until around the 35th minute.
Clark's injury wasn't expected, so he obviously had to come off, with Allen replacing him. Of course, Allen was at fault for the goal, but I dare say the goal incident wouldn't have happened had Clark stayed on the pitch.
I do admit that in the second half, we did become sloppy, allowing Bristol into the game more, but calling the defeat "embarrassing" and calling for Mills' head, even though a few of his signings have been disappointing, is a little extreme in my view.
Performance wise, the same applies. We played a heck of a lot better compared to the Nuneaton match a few weeks ago, but although it still isn't fully up to scratch, calling today's performance "embarrassing" is also a little extreme. I thought we were very unlucky not to get anything today.
The final whistle said it all really. I can't recall anyone booing the team as they walked off, but I do recall many supporters applauding.
