Southport Red Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 I think the "Mar" in Marmite comes from the fact that the yeast is from MARston's brewery (in Burton, of course). 1 Quote Link to comment
BRISTOL86 Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) Interesting. Isn't he our only centre back outside of the first XI? Edited August 13, 2016 by BRISTOL86 Quote Link to comment
Super Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 now Bristol City FC @bcfctweets #BURvBRC: O'Donnell, Little, Flint, Magnusson, Bryan, O'Neil, O'Dowda, Brownhill, Tomlin, Abraham, Kodjia. #BristolCity Quote Link to comment
BRISTOL86 Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) Nice to see us mixing things up depending on the opponent. With Tammy and Kodjia on together we are always going to be a goal threat. You have to think that attack is our best form of defence today. Edited August 13, 2016 by BRISTOL86 Quote Link to comment

Matthews must be completely unfit To be fair I was at Wolves and Fulham last year, he was completely unfit then! difference is we have another fit RB whereas last time we didn't! Gone for a diamond again today, prefer the 4-2-3-1 but when you have the strikers we have its madness not to start them both! Quote Link to comment
ChippenhamRed Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Two up front today then, with only 3 strikers on the books, one of whom is 37....surely another on the way? Quote Link to comment
Londoner Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Soft in midfield!!! Suprised no pack. Quote Link to comment

GrahamC Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Few surprises there, especially Pack not starting, but it is always worth remembering which manager signed a player. Looks a very attacking line up and as Burton score plenty and concede lots that probably means it will end 0-0.. 1 Quote Link to comment
screech Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Are we attempting to break the speed of sound down our right flank this afternoon? Quote Link to comment
Red Army 75 Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Lot of games coming up so its good to see we can use the squad. That's what we couldn't do last season. Exciting line up come on u reds Quote Link to comment
M.D Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 I like this line up, I'm not a big fan of one up top. if fit I would just change Little for Matthews and Brownhill for Korey and that would be for me, our strongest line up. 1 Quote Link to comment
REDOXO Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 A very attacking line up. LJ obviously sees weakness in there defence... Quote Link to comment
screech Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 I wonder if we can re-name ODowda and Little the Red Arrows. 3 Quote Link to comment

Yep I think his thinking will be that they are there for the taking if we can start on the front foot. The fact that they went and scored theee at Forest and still lost the game suggests that defence isn't their strong suit! Quote Link to comment
BRISTOL86 Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Be interesting to see who goes into the back 4 if either Flint or Magnusson get injured! Quote Link to comment

Ah- good to know as drinking the draught. 1 hour ago, Chris said: Get yourself a Proper Job or Top Job if you can find one. Yep- good call. So, and in conclusion: During match it's OTIB washed down with a West Country Proper Job, a further pint of HSD ( high speed Dowda) if appropriate, a pint of Rattler if things aren't going to plan at half time and it remains Doom or Tribute at full time. As for the venue- it's going to be the Ship Inn- hopefully in recognition of Burton's goalie. 1 Quote Link to comment

cityexile Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) Not surprised we are going two up front today, although does highlight with only Wilbs on the bench we have little cover. Think this is horses for courses and would expect to go one up front next few games. Would also much prefer to see Tomlin in the centre. Also surprised by Little and Pack if I am honest. We shall see! Edited August 13, 2016 by cityexile Quote Link to comment
Nogbad the Bad Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Brownhill preferred in midfield to other potential options of Freeman, Pack and Reid. I know they're not all the same 'types' of midfielder by repute, nevertheless interesting that LJ's new signing gets priority over all 3. Brownhill is intriguing, LJ obviously thinks there's alot to come from him. 5 Quote Link to comment

How romantic but afraid not... A marmite (pronounced mar-meet) is a traditional crockery casserole dish found in France. It is famed for its "pot-belly" shape. According to the French culinary reference work Le Répertoire de la Cuisine. Hence why you see one on the label me babber. 2 Quote Link to comment
