Godden was interviewed so assume he is starting.

Can't see him leaving out Viktor... so more than likely two up top!.... adventurous from MR in an away game!!

It is also his birthday today so maybe not

 

[Briles]

A few on here have by the looks of it

I'm a member of pretty much all of the forums tbf

Saw highlights of their match vs Accrington on Youtube and they looked very dangerous despite the defeat.

I don’t think he goes 2 up

and vik plays ahead of godden as he’s better

 

[SleepyGinger]

I agree but I still don't see Doyle being left out. Potentially Rose misses out?
I

If Fadz or Hyam get injured inside 10 minutes I’d rather bring Rose on. Doyle will get his chance it’s a long season.

 

[Greggs]

Succumbed to temptation and booted the cat, the Missus is fuming. Not going to let her dampen my mood though, it's been a long time since we've done a laying down dance, but she knows she'll get it good if the City win.

 

[Johhny Blue]

2-1 win.

90+3 O'Hare winner following on from last season which will send his thread into the stratosphere.

And his transfer fee

 

[Great_Expectations]

Closer it gets, the the more excited I become.

It’s a tough first game, but for me it’s only because we’re away to a newly promoted team with a good fan base. If we were at home I genuinely wouldn’t be worried at all.

We’re a stronger team, we’ve improved our squad and we know how hard the step up is.

If we score early, or even just thwart them, within the first 20/30 I can see the home advantage becoming the opposite.

Would have loved to go, but my away days this year are going to be limited with two young kids.

Looking forward to finding a local pub with an atmosphere to watch it and get back to getting way too invested in 22 players kicking a ball around a field!

1-3, COH, Gyokeres, Panzo.

I think we score early and end up convincing winners. I watched a couple of Sunderlands pre season game highlights and boy they were dreadful. They would have a complete about face to be anywhere near ready for this. I guess 40k fans might spur you on but I doubt it tbh.
I'd still be happy with a draw but expecting a good win....

 

[fatso]

1-0 win for the sky blues.
A tight game, and I think we should play 1 upfront and bring Sheaf into midfield to give us the extra body in there.
Godden to come off the bench in the second half if required.

 

[Danceswithhorses]

Looks like Lawrie McMenemy

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Moore
Hyam - Fadz - Panzo
Dabo - Hamer - Sheaf - Bidwell
O’hare
Godden - Gyökeres

bench : Wilson, Rose, Adaramola, Eccles, Palmer, Waghorn, Tavares​

Gonna be a great game of football, 3-0 City victory, Godden to score the first before the 30 minute mark. Gyökeres to Score around the 55th minute and Panzo to score a last minute header sending City fans mental, capped off with being top of the league by GD.

yep, that would be the lineup i would go with and the bench looks good too although i believe it will be 2-1 to us, O’hare,Gyökeres.

Allen will be in the 18

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Allen will be in the 18

But where abouts? I rate him, but Im not sure where he gets in, considering Robins rates Eccles

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Tavares played 90 for 21s Thursday so I don’t think he’ll be on the bench

I've been on there for about 3 years, also on Blues forum (although that was for something specific) Think I will leave the Sunderland forum alone tbh, as I was initially curious about their views, a lot reasonable then the shouty minority usually drown them out (sound familiar?!). I suspect the shouty few will increase now we are in the same league again.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

So it’ll probably be Allen or Walker in that slot then I assume

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Allen yes. Walker we’re trying to offload and won’t be in the squad apparently

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Keep forgetting we signed that Doyle from Man City

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Won't have 2 strikers on the bench unless he only starts with 1.

 

[covcity4life]

Big crowd and they will be up for it with a good manager. I would take a draw but just want to see us attack each game with no fear.

 

[skyblue025]

They have fickle fans and are expecting them to do well in this league. If we get ahead they will soon turn on them. I'm expecting a win tomorrow.

 

[Mcbean]

Best give them something to think about !

Tbf we were awful last pre-season look how that turned out. Pre-season really does mean little.
Alex Neil has them on a good unbeaten run in a competitive setting.

 

[Evo1883]

Not as confident if ohare is out , not saying we are a one man team, I'm saying it's a big loss

Who says he's out?
I wouldn't listen to the BS spouted on here.

When was it said O’hare was out?

 

[fernandopartridge]

I've heard he's out from a reliable source, obviously Robins isn't going to make it public. The fact that it sounds like Godden is playing upfront with Gyok was probably a clue.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

2-0 them if O’Hare is out.

 

[David O'Day]

2-0 them if O’Hare is out.

why? we still have better players than them

 

[skybluereeve]

What is the supposed injury?
