Bring Woodrow on. Give the centre halves something to worry about

biggest threat is Hörður's delivery. Woodrow would give us a target.

Would fancy our chnaces but looking at the injuries list on the main web site now includes Baker & Pato added to the list of long term injuries. The lads have done fantastic to keep putting on performances whilst carrying niggling injuries due to the other players out, but not being able to rest players for certain matches I fear will be exposed tonight. 

Gary O'Neil - knee injury
Famara Diédhiou - knee injury
Jens Hegeler - knee injury
Eros Pisano - hamstring injury
Callum O'Dowda - ankle injury
Nathan Baker - hamstring injury
Jamie Paterson - hamstring injury

Milan Djuric - operation (not on list for some reason)

Unbelieable list when you consider they would all be on the pitch or bench

Its the last 3 that are scary. Two of those saved LJ from having to tell them they weren't in the match day squad every week!

Said it on here many times before, but I despise Wolves with every fibre in my body. Loathe them more than just about anyone. Like some others, reasons aren't always known to me, but mostly experiences at Molineux and elsewhere with their fans. I'm already dreading the thought of them all waving their adopted Portugal flags in the away end today (which they appear to be doing this season) - it makes the stomach sick and the heart sink. No conflict for me, just added repulsion.  

You cant beat an irrational hatred Ole! Mine is Chelsea, or is that not irrational?

Who are the Wolves owners? How did they make their money?

2-1 to us.

Should have updated her in song, 'we're Bristol City, the city is ours'! 

I did think about that, when driving out of the car park. It really is now, very different to growing up in Bristol in the 70's. What was the name of the ex-army officer who sold Eastville in the 1940's? If I was a Rovers fan he would go down as the man who sealed their fate a long, long time ago..

Got told off by an old lady for wearing my city scarf in The Eastgate Centre yesterday,  as it was Rovers territory. Sweet old thing. I did point out that that may have still be been true, if they had not they sold their stadium where we wete standing. The foreign chap serving me thougbt it must be an Arsenal scarf! Long way to go.

And after Wednesday, any young kid is not going to want to be dragged to see the rovers for his or her first game. The future is ours, and our main competition is now local lads in Man Utd and Barcelona tops...

The thing is you can't knock what City are doing at the moment but that doesn't stop me from wanting it to stop!

Currently we are light years apart and that doesn't look like changing any time soon, but things do change and in football it can happen quite quickly. A year ago Lansdown and Johnson in particular were getting some horrific stick and the prospect of us facing each other again in league competition looked odds on, a year on and it looks as far away as ever.

I'm 53 next week, and at the moment, I'd take just beating you once more in my lifetime.

Happy birthday Miah.

Fan loyalty we never dipped below 10k at rock bottom of League One

What about the 4th division? All fans like success, especially the amount of Bristolians who support LIverpool and Man utd.

He consistently says he takes responsibility while simultaneously making it clear it's all the players' fault.

but the fans, the fans, bloody brilliant..

wow how to really demotivate your players

we are in a fight to stay in league one

not one of my players deserve any credit

he won't be able to get top league one players with performances like that

Sense of realism. he feels very let down. he has told his team.

slamming his defenders. he will take the flag as he always does

thats why my players are bog standard league one players with no consistency..

he is on now

I like 20-pence. One moment of weakness in a lifetime and forever associated with that lot. 

It's a shame for him. 

Pray tell, what was his one moment of weakness?

I am sure that was common knowledge at the time HC, I thought it was Holloway that he bought?

A bit embarrassing though...
