RedM Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 A quick google says plane expected at Bristol 10.48am. A further google reveals ‘BAe 146 departing with the Man Utd team after demolishing the Swansea scum 4-0 yesterday’ with a photo of said plane. They have used it before. THEY ARE COMING!!!

BRISTOL86 Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Pretty much as expected. De Gea the only real big name absentee. This is going to be some serious test of our mettle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly thought they would have stayed last night instead of travelling on the day. Not the most ideal of preparation for such a big club. Oh well if it gives us those few extra % I won't be complaining. Unless this plane is carrying executives, directors etc etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, for those of us who do not follow the Premiershit, let alone Manchester, which of those players should I be looking out for tonight? Are they any good? I know Rashford is half decent as he's played well for England. Not sure about the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A massive test for the lads tonight , great chance for them to test themselves hope that it's not too much of a reality check for our fan base and we provide real competition for them Rashford Lukaku or Pogba running at you is not akin to Billy Sharp Do your best and do yourself proud lads (Glad to see Ashley Young absent too - had a feeling he would have caused us problems ) COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 For those that doesn't follow the premier league this is the team that started for them at the weekend against West Brom and their bench. Those that took the flight (if correct) to Bristol are in bold. De Gea A. Young C. Smalling P. Jones. A. Valencia A. Herrera N. Matic J. Mata J. Lingard M. Rashford R. Lukaku Subs VN. Lindelof M. Rojo Z. Ibrahimovic A. Martial S. Romero L. Shaw S. McTominay Not in match-day squad vs West-Brom: J. Pereira, O'Hara (both GKs), Darmian, Blind, Tuanzebe, Pogba (suspension), Mkhitaryan, Tellingly they've brought their reserve defence essentially and their full strength attack. Smacks of underestimating our forward play and respecting our defence, perhaps. Food for thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibor Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 For some of these players this might be the only chance they get in their whole career to play at Ashton Gate. I sincerely hope they don't get overwhelmed by the big occasion and do themselves proud. Flinty, Joey and Korey Smith will surely do autographs and swap shirts after so Ibra et al can genuinely concentrate on their game and not let themselves down. Whatever the result they need to look back on the game at the end of their careers as a highlight they remember fondly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ark_at_ee_mind Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Does indeed look like that plane from Manchester was in a holding pattern for about 35-40 mins this morning trying to get into Bristol Airport, before finally diverting to Cardiff and landing shortly after 11.30am. Not the greatest pre-match preparation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
