First game of the season today with my boy. I seem to remember this being discussed previously but can you take any food and drink in with you?

No I don't think so, they will take bottles off you so don't take any

 

[bawtryneal]

I think Jobello will start if fit. If not, I suspect O’Hare will come in and play wide right.

In regards to Evans, he’s struggled a bit in the last few years as his regard was pretty stellar before that.

One of the most arrogant, abnoxious and rude men I have ever met.
Hopefully Squeaky will ensure we give them a good stuffing
I bet Evans doesn't shake MR's hand at the beginning or end.
6,150 attendance and 2-0 win in the sunshine.
PUSB

Finally after nearly a month on holiday, I am coming home today should land in brum around half 1. Mrs is happy she has been left to take the cases home whilst I go straight to St Andrews. Let’s hope it’s worth it

I think Jobello should be ok

If he isn’t fit, I’d start O’Hare on the bench and keep the team the same - they deserve it after Tuesday. Unless Westbrooke or Shipley are struggling in which case it’s an easy excuse to drop one and start O’Hare.

Good pub recommendation then?!

Aye indeed, GE!

Been in there every home game but going via Christ the King coach today, so will miss it.

CtKing have struck up an agreement with Bordesley Labour Club, which is 5 min walk to St. Andrews, to park up and have a drink prior to and after the game.

Sounds good. We’re heading to DigBrew today!

I have a feeling Mat Godden May score a hat trick !

Says free water at every kiosk don’t know what that means

I think it means that water is free and you’ll find it at every kiosk m8

He he he

Noticed Gillingham have taken the lead in all their previous matches this season and Jakubiak, Hanlan and Ndjoli seem to be their dangermen. However, it appears they have let their opponents back into the game (which leads me to believe their defence may not be that great). Think we will need to take the lead and have them chase the game (instead of vice versa) and have 2 goal cushion at least to ensure a victory today.

How many pies will Evans eat today?

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Just arrived in Singapore.

Does anyone know of anywhere that shows the games here? I'm sure there was a supporters club here at one point.

 

[torchomatic]

If anyone sees a tubby man in a Joe 90 t-shirt, be sure to say 'hello'.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Less than 6000 today do we think. Shame but understandable

 

[Deleted member 2477]

Lincoln currently losing against Doncaster

There are few Irish pubs that show sky sports . Most of them shut at 3 am so you will be ok time wise

TBF if you look back at the pre-season predictions, that would be high-end. FWIW, I'm there for the first time today :emoji_grimacing:

Yep I was way out with what I thought

 

[Johnnythespider]

City 2-0, crowd about the same as last week but more home less away. Busier in the roost than last week.

 

[Nick]

Mcfadz injured?

 

[Alkhen]

 

[Alkhen]

Hoping it's just a knock, youngish defence there.

 

[CanadianCCFC]

Still no Allen.
At least it doesn’t look like O’Hare has a must play every game clause or something.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

So much for Allen’s 7-10 day injury. Hopefully it’s not the same story for McFadzean.

 

[covcity4life]

Not good to see mcfadz out

Wakwfield on bench. Hopefully 433 helps him excel

 

[Great_Expectations]

Two changes to the back four isn’t ideal, but we’ve still got more than enough to win. It’s inexperienced and young, but there’s ability there and it’s strong enough for L1. However one of Rose or Hyam will need to talk McCallum through the game; that’s where we’ll most miss McFadzean.

Good options on the bench with Bapaga, O’Hare, Wakefield and Bakayoko as attacking options.

Still going 3-0.

 

[CanadianCCFC]

Hoping it's just a knock, youngish defence there.

Nahhhhh, just an average age of just over 21.

 

[harvey098]

So much for Allen’s 7-10 day injury. Hopefully it’s not the same story for McFadzean.

Even if Allen has overcome the injury he’ll need a run out in the 23’s first. Was never going to play today.

Hope McFadz isn’t serious. Bench looks weak.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

No need to rush players. back before they are ready.

 

[Winny the Bish]

Happy with the pace we have on the bench in Bapaga and Wakefield

 

[You'll Never Beat McPake]

I think 2-0. Godden and Shipley
