Tell me how bad Sunderland's form was before their visit to Ashton Gate. We are in a league where anyone can beat anyone , form means nothing . The over riding factor needed to get a result in the Championship is application. Turn up thinking it will be easy you will get nothing . Put in a shift and get a bit of luck you win or get a point .

Add to that LJs stubbornness and favouritism that was so evident in last seasons awful run coming back to haunt us (e.g. likely to yet again play a midfielder RB, instead of picking Mags to start CB and leaving BW at RB and likely to pick a bang out-of-form Pato to start again despite the fact he has contributed nothing in his last 3 appearances) and I rather suspect it's Leeds fans eying us as the ideal team to play to get out of their bad run!

Last season, as soon as Paterson hit bad form he dropped him. He's been bad for a few games now, doubt he'll start Saturday but we'll see. Sort of worrying that this happened last year with him & it's happening again. Hopefully he ends as strongly as he did last season. These shouts for Magnússon have me slightly confused. He's a liability and it's not surprising to see why Johnson doesn't trust him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think realising that Hörður and Flint together is a recipe for disaster is favouritism. Realism maybe. The only reason a midfielder is at RB is because of the suspension for Baker, which no one could have planned for, and luckily is almost over.

Admin Ian M Posted February 13, 2018 Admin Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 As has been noted above, we know how this usually pans out.

reddogkev Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 Don't worry, I'm betting on Leeds to win - guarantees that we will take at least a point. For latest confirmation, I placed an acca on the weekend. This is what happened. Barcelona to beat Getafe - 0-0 draw Fulham to beat Bolton - 1-1 draw Blackburn to beat Oldham - 2-2 draw Man Utd to beat Newcastle - lost 1-0. The evidence is there, when I bet on a team, they never win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope Leeds are absolutely spannered then, missing several key players through injury, stick their centre-half up front at 0:2 to us leaving themselves a bit open at the back, and that that centre-half misses a stonewall sitter at 0:2 when their 4th choice forward who hasn't scored for months gets in his bloody way!

Seems by far the likeliest scenario. However even in our current run of poor form we got a point against the odds at Derby. I’ll be delighted with another draw.

AppyDAZE Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 Are the good people of OTIB suggesting that Bristol City are the 'do gooders' of the Championship? the 'happy to help' the 'good samaritans' if your form is suffering, ring BCFC ? or rather, play Bristol City...and all your troubles will vanish :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
