Desso Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 In his post match interview on Saturday, LJ said that a game had been arranged for Tuesday to put a few things right. Anyone have any details? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slartibartfast Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 I take it it's a "bibs v shirts " game . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desso Posted October 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Yes, that's what it probably is, but I guess they do that in training all the time.When he said it, I thought that it sounded more formal than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Potentially a closed door friendly against another side potentially, relaxed rules with unlimited subs etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendyredredrobin Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Managers say that players cant cope with 2 games a week and need a break. When a break comes, we arrange a practice match. Which is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamalagerdrinker Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Said it's for Plan B in games, something we haven't done yet so wants to try it out so everyone knows it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubtless the players will get a few days off as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted October 3, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 See we beat Swindon 4-0 with a mix and match side out Bristol City XI: Steele, Vyner, Flint (Harvey Smith 46), Pack (Baldwin 70), Baker (Bryan 46 (Morton 70)), Brownhill (Holden 46), Reid (Bakinson 46), Paterson (Edwards 46), Eliasson, Woodrow, Garita (Andrews 46). One thing that caught my eye was that Joe Bryan came on as a sub at half time and was then replaced 24 minutes later . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully thats all there was to it. Worst case is a lengthy injury which would be bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dullmoan Tone Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 Anyone else surprised we are risking first team players like Reid, Flint, Patterson and Pack in a friendly after a gruelling September - I see the need to give some players game time, but why risk injury against a Swindon reserve team?

Kezman Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 In the Post Match interview after the Ipswich game, LJ talked about a behind closed door friendly to work on some 'plan B' attack/formation, as this season it hasn't had to be implemented much. This was probably the game then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have players capable of finding the space and hurting teams quickly after the initial turn over. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 Few thoughts from me; Very surprised at some of the starters, Reid, Bryan, Paterson and Baker in particular have already played a lot of first team games. Very surprised that Hegeler didn't feature here at all, as he has had comparatively very little game time of late... Finally Pisano must still be some way from fitness if he didn't play a part at all in this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
