think it’ll be 0-0, with defense working hard for the clean sheet.

Robins has said he needs a rest and would leave him out "if he could" as he's had lumps kicked out of him by the opposition all season. Think it will half hour at the end again.

6 yellow against Blackburn! I was hoping we would go for Crooks in the summer after Rotherham went down

 

[PVA]

Looks like Kane is back in training based on the videos posted on the socials.

Behind Dacosta in the pecking order now

 

[Paxman II]

Again just avoid defeat....a long season and on paper easier games to come.

Nothing beats that Barnsley game start of the season. Never seen a team so proficient at taking turns for cynical fouls.

Yes, really frustrating the way that they continually fouled in rotation. A very cynical performance from them in another game we dominated but couldn't score.

 

[Disgruntled Sky Blue]

Will be a long old drive but another ground to tick off.

Didn't realise our record was so poor up there, so hoping to bring that to an end with a fine 0:2 win with Sheaf and Wag getting the goals so I can count my winnings.

 

[Skybluebeliever]

Can’t see it anywhere else and it’s two days away so:

Predictions? Team?

I’m guessing Kane won’t be fit, and O’Hare won’t be match fit so going with:

Moore
Hyam Fadz JCS
Eccles Hamer Sheaf Bidwell
Allen Waghorn
Györkeres

S: Wilson, Rose, Maatsen, Dacosta, Shipley, O’Hare, Tavares

1-1

Think Kane will start not necessary finish
Eccles injured

so de costa could feature at the end if Kane struggles

O’hare should start

 

[Liquid Gold]

I'd be delighted with a point right now

 

[Jagmannn]

I feel we could sneak a win here ....but it will be tough ....time to start scoring them goals in the last minute again .......love them so much

 

[no_loyalty]

As most have stated a point here would be great, a win would be unbelievable.

 

[B-Ban-Boogie]

1-0 away win... McFadz with a header from a corner, 69 minutes.

 

[covcity4life]

2 nill loss

Be over moon with a point

 

[Skybluefaz]

Fancy us to get a win. Gyokeres to score again and Hamer screamer. 0 - 2.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Eccles injured

Think you might be wrong about both Kane and Eccles.

 

[shmmeee]

[Gibbo]

Actually, and this is rare, I fancy us to beat a well placed team away from home. 0-1.

 

[win9nut]

Gyokeres to score at least one in a 1-2 win
Clean sheet would be great, but after watching the Blackburn/Boro match the other night, Wilder will fire a rocket up em...

 

[pusbccfc]

Looking forward to it. Biggest ground in division, one of the better sets of home fans vocally.

Really is a shame we are only taking 1300 but I'm hoping we'll still make a racket.

 

[Johhny Blue]

According to their match thread they will be trying to keep McAlister, Huckerby and Dublin under control.
We might have a few surprise names in the lineup.

 

[AOM]

Fancy a surprise win.
O'Hare in for Shipley, Kane for Eccles if both fit.
Assume Waghorn still not match fit enough to start with Gyokeres up front?

 

[skybluegod]

Tbf I'd imagine weemans post is based off the robins interview which has said as much.

He basically said he will assess Eccles today but should be okay and that Kane is touch and go.

Could be that or maybe i've seen the travelling party.

 

[Skybluebeliever]

Yes looks like Kane had a reaction and couldn’t train this morning and Eccles was able to train this morning !!!!, changes daily at the moment !!!!

 

[Deleted member 5849]

But did they realise they were in the travelling party?

 

[Offhegoes]

We always lost at The Riverside in the Premier League days, didn’t matter what form we were in, guaranteed 2-0 defeat. Hated the fixture. I’ll take a score draw tomorrow

 

[Houchens Head]

2-0 down at 85 minutes. Then stonkin' 3 goals to us within the time left plus 4 added minutes. Finish at 3-2 to us! I'll stick a tenner on this prediction! (Bloody good bottle of scotch I'm enjoyin' as well!)

 

[Wyken Sky Blue]

Any idea how many tickets sold?

Not sure if that's a serious quote or a No.10 quip!?

Think we will lose this one. And sadly I think it will be convincing. 3-0.

Make it a Tavares hat trick and you should get decent odds

 

[TewkesburySkyBlue]

Exactly! It should bring an end to the cursed reign of Robbings too.

I assume you are either taking the piss or enjoy being in a minority of one

 

[Philosoraptor]

Still have City in 7th when everything is levelled.

 

[Happy_Martian]

Haven't made any predictions in a while and I still have no idea how to read @Philosorapter's posts

But all the pretty pictures and wavy lines won't stop a defeat today. 2-0 Middlesboro win.
