7 debuts is bizzarre

Cue tumble weed scenes when we win 3-0

I don't see why, alot of the negativity is due to a small squad and that shouldn't be affecting us on game one, combined with the fact that Bradfords recruitment this season seems to have been a mess there is every reason to believe we can win this game even if you are worried about how we will do over the season. Losing would be a worry though.

any news on no fleck?

Didn't SP say there were a couple of 1st team players who needed to work on their fitness levels after the match last Saturday. Then Miller and Fleck both played for 60mins in the mid-week U21 match against Vile, and they are both on the bench today. Added to that, he now has good alternatives to choose from. Could be co-incidence of course.

7 debuts is bizzarre

The matchday squad is 66% different than the one that ended last season, 12 out of 18 picked players are different.

2-0 Cov, one in each half from Tudgay, scored in 32nd and 79th minute.

Somebody will buy s match programme, leave it under their seat and only remember after leaving the ground.

Are we playing today? Just not interested any more.

 

[oscillatewildly]

Got sweaty arm pits already, and I'm sat at home with CWR on.

Not interested in this at all, I'm only posting this because I dropped my laptop and it somehow landed on this website and thread and posted on it's own.

6 minutes until kick off! 5 now!

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

This is our season....

 

[sw88]

Will try to keep updates on here. But once again my battery is being shit, and I also have a massive post in my way so some play will be missed (or I'll be randomly swaying from one side of the pole to the other and I can't blame alcohol!! I feel a complaint email coming on! Not like I didn't buy my ticket early!!)

 

[shmmeee]

Totally called that midfield.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Teams out come on City!!

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Clarke nearly scores in first 30 seconds but put over the bar

 

[sw88]

Early chance for Jordan Clarke who got up the field well (playing RWB and Willis CB)

 

[sw88]

Totally called that midfield.

No one likes a show off

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Bournemouth 1 up after 24 seconds. Scorer? Not Wilson!

 

[sw88]

McQuoid looking strong at holding the ball up. Poor pass after he did well but I won't hold it against him

 

[LJC_CCFC]

Bournemouth 1 up after 24 seconds. Scorer? Not Wilson!

But Cody Mac has for the Gills

 

[ccfcway]

Cody McDonald grabs his 1st of the season

 

[hill83]

Bournemouth 1 up after 24 seconds. Scorer? Not Wilson!

Don't care

 

[sw88]

McQuoid gets taken out with a late challenge although their man did win the ball first
Gets himself up after a period of being on the floor but no treatment needed

 

[sw88]

Good passing move by us but comes to nothing

 

[LJC_CCFC]

Are we retaining possession or just dropping the 5 behind the ball?

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Jim O'Brien misses a golden chance

 

[sw88]

Good ball forward by Pugh, finds OBrien in the box, forces keeper to commit but ball trickles wide of the post

 

[sw88]

Are we retaining possession or just dropping the 5 behind the ball?

Retaining possession but a lot going sideways

Don't think McQuoid has been with us long enough yet to but into our play as we've not yet trained him to stop running (that's not a bad thing btw). He's running all over and always looking for the ball,

 

[ccfcmustang]

Wilson would have scored that

Sounds promising

 

[Nick]

Wilson would have scored that 

And Messi, he doesn't play for us either.

 

[sw88]

We get a free kick in a good area, Swanson goes for the long shot but hits the wall. Ball ends up going backwards at second attempt and a Willis pass ends up going out for a BC throw

 

[sw88]

Sounds promising

He looks good but I'm sure we'll soon train it out of him

 

[Nick]

How is the defence looking?
