havanatopia Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Well this is the first match of the season where we could, officially, be saying 'hasta la vista' to our half a decade or so stint in the Championship. It has had its ups and its downs but its been a roller coaster blast. We will be back to grace the division again perhaps as early as the autumn of 2014. I hope we give a good account of ourselves this evening and indeed in the remaining fixtures; it would be nice if we could battle until the last even if it means we avoid ending up in last place. I am not even going to try and predict tonights result; I cannot imagine for one moment what is going on inside the 11 players' heads who will take to the pitch. They could freeze or they could play with total abandon and smash the blues back to brum so that we live for another day in what is, for me, the most exciting league in the world. Come on City... give it all you got and provide us with a performance to rock the roof off. Quote Link to comment

Cobby Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Didn't Ajala play for the under 21's the other day ? Quote Link to comment
Bedminster Born And Red Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Interesting to see Ajala and Burns on the bench I'll be more interested if they actually get out onto the pitch!! Quote Link to comment
Cobby Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 I'll be more interested if they actually get out onto the pitch!! Why not ? We have nothing to lose so why not give them some first team experience Quote Link to comment
Super Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Taylor injured again? Quote Link to comment
Bedminster Born And Red Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Why not ? We have nothing to lose so why not give them some first team experience Exactly. Don't pay lip service, stick them on the bench and then bring Howard and Foster on!! Get them out there and give something for the supporters to get behind. Quote Link to comment
South Bristol Red Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 good to see anderson and adomah on the wings from the beginning Quote Link to comment
Cobby Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Exactly. Don't pay lip service, stick them on the bench and then bring Howard and Foster on!! Get them out there and give something for the supporters to get behind. If we are meant to be improving out academy and youth players we need to do what teams like Southampton do , and play their youth players otherwise they will never reach their potential Quote Link to comment

djb6162 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Didn't Ajala play for the under 21's the other day ? 90 mins yesterday Quote Link to comment
Cobby Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 90 mins yesterday People need to take that into account if he actually plays instead of slating him before his career in a city shirt begins Quote Link to comment

South Bristol Red Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 (edited) i reckon we will win by 3 clear goals tonight Edited April 16, 2013 by southbristol Quote Link to comment
bristolcitysweden Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 We have got one point from the last five games. Better call Hitchcock Quote Link to comment
iWurzel Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Nyatanga captain, one of the most nervous and shaky defenders I've ever seen, interesting. Rather see someone like Heaton captaining the side who at least gives 110% and seems to genuinely care. Quote Link to comment

iWurzel Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Nyatanga is a class above Fontaine and Bates. That's a measure of how shit the other two are frankly! Our defence or lack thereof is the reason we're going to be a third division club next year. Quote Link to comment
Aizoon Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 People need to take that into account if he actually plays instead of slating him before his career in a city shirt begins No, no, no! Get the abuse in early and wreck his confidence before he gets started - you know it makes sense Quote Link to comment
Aizoon Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Horace says 3-0. I say 2-1, but for once we agree about the result. Lets show what we can do Quote Link to comment
