I just want to double check if there are any Bristol City backroom staff in here gettung the inside scoop off some bloke who happens to know the team early to try and beat us instead of training, analysing videos, studying our passage of play etc?

This seemed a bit suspicious earlier, think he’s based in Bristol?

 

[SuperFred]

I'm sure there's people at the club that monitor this forum, if they had a problem with saddle they'd ask him to stop

 

[JSL]

A win tonight and we could go 5th

Nope none here post please

[Bertola]

Nope none here post please

That's exactly what a Bristol City insider would say

 

[shmmeee]

A win and we will go fifth WBA aren’t playing.

 

[Philosoraptor]

I didn't add West Brom to the chart. So here it is.

Ipswich do look like that they are coming off the boil a bit.

 

[Offhegoes]

I think Palmer plays. He's been great since he's come back. Simms down the middle, Sakamoto on the right. Sheaf & Eccles in midfield.
Wright, Torp, Allen, Godden & Dasilva is some bench.

Cheeky 5 a side team and full bench rotation

 

[Saddlebrains]

Right.


Tbf its not even that groundbreaking its pretty predictable bar a couple of things

Back to the 4 2 3 1 formation we've been looking class with, The usual back 5, Tats and O'Hare back in, only question mark is Torp or Eccles, All depends on Eccles recovery up until today as MR alluded too in his post game interview

Haji in squad, doesnt know whether its simms or Godden leading the line, apparently 'no one knows weirdly'

So yea its hardly revelatory and as expected really

 

[Johhny Blue]

A draw would balance the universe -

Historic head-to-head:

Sky Blues wins - 25
Draws - 24
Bristol City wins - 25

Surely one of the draws doesn’t count?

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Right.

Wright only in bench?

I agree it shouldn't count but it's there in black and white.Those of us who saw it that night were glad it did.

 

[Robinshio]

i remember the 1st game back in the championship at their place
what was it - around 20 seconds, and we hadnt had a kick !!!
At that point I really thought it was a step too far

Did Godden score our only goal?

 

[Astute]

Incorrect. Win tonight we do go 5th.

 

[MikeyMoo]

Other sites have dropped a team sheet with Godden starting up top, no wright or trip

Ostigard was at fault

 

[Nick]

I really hope Simms is starting rather than godden.

 

[Diogenes]

I can't bear the meltdowns if Godden plays and has a stinker.

 

[mmttww]

I really hope Simms is starting rather than godden.

Me each time I think this, or read this, then see the Team sheet posted in the match thread:

 

[Briles]

It’s the same formation as last game fyi

 

[shepardo01]

Ostigard was at fault

We battered them for large parts of the game - couldn't finish and Bentley was very good. Typically for us at that point... Remember it was still the Marosi days, we conceded two poor goals.

I agree.

Drove a Bentley once. Was very good as you said. But my mate (the Bentley owner) didn't appreciate my driving.

 

[no_loyalty]

I really hope Simms is starting rather than godden.

I hope he brings his shooting boots with him, as desperately needs a goal.

 

[itsabuzzard]

Think the way to play this run of fixtures is to use the subs bench liberally, 3/4 players on at 60 mins. Having Lats/Dasilva/Eccles/Palmer/Godden to come on to see out the game is no bad thing.

Rotation

 

[Saddlebrains]

It’s the same formation as last game fyi

If it is then I officially refute my ITK status because thats not what i was told

 

[mark82]

I'm not sure why we'd go 5 at the back.

[stupot07]

Godden seems to have been ever present since he threw his wobbly. 1 goal in his last 19 games against championship opposition. No pressure.
