Thought I'd start it off early. Mo Coulibaly out of both friendlies with injury still, looks as if he is going to be a waste of a signing tbh.

Pressley says places still up for grabs, Reda Johnson to play again in his comeback from injury and will be ready for next weekend.

I think he's perpetually injured.

I am already here, Mother and Father used to own the Duke of York which is a stones throw away from the Memorial Ground..

Pissing down with rain at the moment..

 

[covcity4life]

hope to hear of another well oiled disciplined performance. we must work well as a unit every single game this season

pressley tells us the style of play we want but last season we never sustained it.we must this time out if we really want to forge an identity.

 

[westcountry_skyblue]

Will be on the harbour side around 5pm.
Then a slow walk up the Gloucester road via a few pubs !!!

 

[Nick]

Hmm 4-4 I think

 

[DaleM]

Hmm 4-4 I think

I'm going for 4-0 again . Get your money on it , trust me . :claping hands:

 

[covcity4life]

2-0 win

tudgay,miller

 

[shmmeee]

I'll take an edgy 1-0 even a 0-0 here. All about shape and performance for me. I want to see us tighter than we were at the end of last season.

 

[RoboCCFC90]

I reckon it'll be 3-0 to us, should the game go ahead..

Typical Bristol it's pissed it down since I got here.

 

[fernandopartridge]

The game at Ashton Gate last season was pretty damp as well. I was surprised that wasn't abandoned but they're used to it down there. Shame this game isn't a Saturday, be a good day out.

 

[Hobo]

Let's hope we can build on the Watford performance.

 

[westcountry_skyblue]

How that game against Bristol City went ahead I will never know.
Still a great result.
First rain we have had down here for weeks so game should be ok,If not stay on the sauce !!!

 

[craigus12]

hoping for another clean sheet

 

[Nick]

Is it raining that badly?

 

[RoboCCFC90]

Is it raining that badly?

It's stopped for now, but

 

[Jack Griffin]

I think he's perpetually injured.

Seems to me like his wages count as part of Wilson fee & Bournemouth are actually paying him while he is here.

 

[shmmeee]

When's kick off?

[sw88]

So it's our reserves V Brizzle then

Glad I brought my jacket for this !!!

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

I don't see why we wouldn't be interested in offering a contract to McLean if Pressley rates him. Can play left back or right back too according to wiki.

 

[Marty]

Who's McLean?

 

[Nick]

Isn't it the guy just here for fitness?

 

[wingy]

I don't see why we wouldn't be interested in offering a contract to McLean if Pressley rates him. Can play left back or right back too according to wiki.

Yep. Used to play with Pressley I think, and is here to keep fit before he gets his big money move to America. Sounds familiar
