Robin101 Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Thank god for three points today, but there should be alarm bells ringing all round Ashton Gate. The atmosphere around the club feels flat. It feels like we’re slowly regressing towards being a boring, poor midtable Championship team. And once the slide begins it’s hard to stop (please see our last stint in the Championship). Don’t think we’ll end up in a relegation battle this season, but I think we’ll drift on downwards. I am seriously worried about the next season or two though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mihai Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Same thoughts. I was calculating the points difference between us and relegation zone...that says a lot. I don't even look at top 6 anymore for weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickolas Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 I reckon 45 should do it this year. 12 to get. See out the season and complete rebuild required ( let most out of contract players go, and the management team ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the players back and have a good run and we could be close to Pray off's! I can't see us spending any cash, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garland-sweden Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Watkins is here, bring Adelakun and Palmer to. Pato wont be back for a while and Maybe COD Also Can not play for a while. Think Edwards will start next game. That we have so many points so far is amazing. Think we are doing well in the table regarding our injuried players. Its difficault to play good football When we have the team we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmite Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 If we had as many players out with covid we would not have even been playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palmer who can't get any minutes at Swansea and who Holden doesn't trust. And Adelakun who was terrible whenever we saw him in a red shirt and is still not a regular starter in League 1. We have better options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have better options Adelakun have played 18 games for Hull and scored twice, ok Palmer is not good enough for Swansea but they are a better team than us. At this moment I dont think we have any better options. Since Pato got injuried we havent scored until today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my post is more about how season after season we’re slowly regressing it feels. Both position and style. Give it a season or two more and we could be in danger unless we change something.

Garland-sweden Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Dont Know if he or Palmer is the answer but the midfield dont work. Nagy, Bakinson one goal each, COD zero goal. Pato scores but we dont know how long he is gonna be injuried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is a holding season or a bit of one personally. Probably wasn't the plan but could end up working out that way. If we look at the squad we will see many players out of contract this summer- with a 12-month rolling contract too, that could make getting rid of Holden if the club feel he was an appointment for these times, easier from that angle.
