Red-Robbo Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 What has Chris Martin got to do to be dropped? Shag Pearson's missus?? That's a balsa-wood looking mf as well. This isn't looking pretty. Just hope the large travelling contingent can lift the lads. 1 Quote Link to comment

December is brutal as always and he (and everyone else) will need resting at times. Quote Link to comment

Actually once this international break is done, we have one midweek game after the first weekend back, but between then and Christmas it's one game a week which is quite useful for easing him and others back in. 3 Quote Link to comment

Maybe 200 or 250 championship games between them? It's not what you want is it really. As Fleming has just said on RobinsTV there's a huge need for Kalas, Weimann, Martin and Bentley to marshal the younger players and lead them through today. 2 minutes ago, Northern Red said: Actually once this international break is done, we have one midweek game after the first weekend back, but between then and Christmas it's one game a week which is quite useful for easing him and others back in. Is it really? I hadn't realised. December is normally 7 or so matches in the month. Might help having a bit more rest. Yep just checked. Only 5 games in December this season.

Clevedon Red Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 One good thing…if we lose we don’t go down the table at all. Small consolation and all that….having said that I reckon it’s a 2-1 city win. Quote Link to comment
Lrrr Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 On Atkinson I feel this is the difference to last season ‘we could have chucked him on and he break down after 10 minutes so need to look after him’. Accept he’ll miss one vs he may miss a lot more if we play him 4 Quote Link to comment
BasSavage88 Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 This is either going to be a nice dull 0.0 or we will be getting spanked 4.0 if we can keep it tight for the first half I can see the 0.0 Quote Link to comment
City_USA Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 Mornin' all Not a line up any of us would expect but let's see if a few players can surprise us all today. COYR! Get well soon Nige. Doesn't sound good Quote Link to comment
Bazooka Joe Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 Manure have lost, so there's already a bright spot today. Bernardo Dasilva tucking in that second goal was the perfect demonstration of busting a gut to make something out of an almost impossible situation. Fear we are going to miss Atkinson big-time today. Best we can hope for is a lethargic, under-par performance from Coventry (and hopefuly a red card), but that will still probably be enough to give them a win. Quote Link to comment

The end of the month and beginning of January is busy as ever, but I think there's usually a midweek game somewhere in December whereas this season there isn't. 1 Quote Link to comment

marmite Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 At least there are a couple of potential game changers on the bench today. Trouble is we could be in trouble really early today. Wow I hate this total lack of confidence spreading through this team and fans. Quote Link to comment
LondonBristolian Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 I’d fancy our “injured or not starting XI” to beat the side we have been able to put out. Still, hoping for the best. COYR! Quote Link to comment
Davefevs Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 Been listening to BBCRB with Geoff...sounds like its gonna be a great day at Yate. On Robinstv now, interested to hear Challis. Good comments from him re Massengo not flitting around too much, maintain his position. Quote Link to comment

The midfield needs discipline, too often they go wandering. If one goes, the other sits, but don't get too far apart. They need to feed the wide areas and get the ball forward quicker. Could go very wrong, but could be positive today. Out of adversity, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment
maxjak Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 We will do well to limit the sky blues to 2 goals today..........and as we rarely score more than 1, its a 2-0 or 2-1 defeat today. That is optimistic . Ha! Quote Link to comment
samo II Posted November 6, 2021 Report Share Posted November 6, 2021 Obviously COYR but that team… doesn’t inspire confidence. Fingers-crossed they have had a fire lit under them and come out fighting. If not, have some questions about what players need to do to get dropped around here. Quote Link to comment
