havanatopia Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Having no lifeboat when the ship is going down must be one of the most lingering 'end of my life' feelings. Slowly watching the vessel submerge itself with only a life jacket, not a shoreline in sight and in cold seas. I am thinking of those who have experienced such a moment right now as I ramble on and say to all you fellow brilliant Bristol City fans, following our club through a little bit of treacle but mostly very runny vinegar, to take it away, take the match day and make it yours today. Mine is not the sinking ship but a washed up metaphor of it for another time. Up the table. 3 1 Quote Link to comment

wendyredredrobin Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) Planning to watch on BCTV later. Feeling a bit more upbeat following a better performance in midweek, but the Swans will provide a much stiffer test. I guess LJ will not want to tinker with a winning formula too much other than to bring in the new CH in place of Eros alongside Webster with Kelly at LB and Hunt on the right. I'm enjoying seeing a keeper who comes for crosses, comes out of his box and can kick a football in between the touchlines for a change. A midfield of Watkins, Brownhill, Pack and Eliasson? Or will we try a 352 formation? Probably Andi & Matty up front again and now into game 5 of Fam's spitting ban. All may depend on the fitness of one or two with knocks. A win would propel us right up the table, but I would bemore than happy with a point today. Edited August 25, 2018 by wendyredredrobin Quote Link to comment
rednotblue Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 353 might be pushing it a bit!! Think we could nick a point today. Quote Link to comment
Brann-red Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) It looks like a home win for them if you werea betting man . Can see us sneaking a 1-0 . Matty Taylor. . Edited August 25, 2018 by Brann-red Quote Link to comment
Lew-T Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Think Swansea will suit our style today. Two decent footballing teams, it’s just whether we can hurt them in the right areas and when it counts. They will punish us no doubt. I’d like to see... Maenpaa Hunt Kalas Webster Kelly Brownhill Pack O’Dowda Taylor Weimann Eliasson Or maybe a 352 as LJ mentioned it in the preview... Maenpaa Kalas Webster Kelly Hunt Brownhill Pack O’Dowda Eliasson Taylor Weimann Quote Link to comment

Septic Peg Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 3-0 loss. Swansea are gonna run rings around us unfortunately. So I've written it off already and to cheer myself up tonight, I've got the Youtuber boxing paid for (my son is a massive fan) and I can't stand Jake or Logan Paul so I'll be hoping they get battered into next week.

ProjectMayhem Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Heard rumours it's on international TV today so may be a stream hiding somewhere.. Anyone got any ideas? Quote Link to comment
INCRED Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Before Kalas was signed I would have feared for our defence as McBurnie would have caused us problems but assuming Kalas goes straight into the side I’m a little more hopeful of a positive result. They are not a bad footballing side and play a similar style to us so it should be a good game to watch. Could go either way so would take a draw Quote Link to comment

Davefevs Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Looking forward to seeing Matty Taylor today. Thought he looked sluggish v Boro, and despite his goal and hard work v QPR I thought he still didn’t look sharp. LJ mentioned in his presser that he thought MT had got the rustiness out of his legs on Tuesday, so i’m Hoping to see more from him today. Quote Link to comment
old_eastender Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Play like we did in opening 40 mins against QPR and we will be 3-0 down by HT. Play like we did for rest of QPR game and who knows, longer we can frustrate them, the better chance of nicking something. Overall though got to be expecting home win. Quote Link to comment

Garland-sweden Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 Think Swansea will have the ball most of the time, they are favourites, suits us. Hard to predict but one point would be good, hoping for 3 points ofcause. Always believe, COYR!!! Quote Link to comment
