Lordofthebling Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Bristol City will face Swindon Town in three 30 minute periods at the training ground. @bcfctweets: #BristolCity: Fielding; Moloney, Flint, Williams, Cunningham; Kilkenny, Pack, Elliott, Wagstaff; Emmanuel-Thomas, Baldock. Liam Fontaine misses out with a rib injury. Interesting... So it seems SOD is clearly not happy with Sundays game. Gives Williams a chance to shine. Fonts is injured? Hmmmmm.

devoncider Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Fonts out due to 'rib' injury. always seem to need to have an injury when players are dropped. No one is actually just dropped anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheese Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 so if we let in a bag full who can we blame?! Luckily Fielding's playing. Edited bit: And as a last resort we can always say that the players were still recovering from having to play the role of two or three players to cover Font's on Sunday.

EDoubleD Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Why is Kilkenny playing again?! If you were bobby Reid or joe Bryan you'd be pretty ****** off by now. Maybe switch teams every 30 though...you'd hope... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcusX Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Thought this was some kind of joke at first, why are we playing a friendly with a full strength squad against a team in our division? A team that we face in a months time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posset red Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Also glad to see sod is clearly piss*d off after Sundays performance hence the reason for this friendly to weigh up his options and hopefully get the donkeys out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A team that we face in a months time? I think it's because SOD wants to analyse our 'first team' against someone in our division in a friendly match so he can use any tactics, subs etc and it won't matter if the tactics come off because it's a friendly. He wont's to see where our weaknesses our to improve on. I think it's very smart of him to do this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bard Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 It's a practice match. We don't have a midweek match. Apart from the one with the 'dodgy ribs', it's the same side that started on Sunday. I guess they are being given the chance to 'work Sunday's performance out of their system' so to speak. Think of it like a batsman who is out cheaply having a net afterwards. N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reid and Bryant were not responsible for Sundays debacle, they've probably been told as much and are glad they don't have to go through with what is, probably, a pretty humiliating exercise for the players selected.

Lordofthebling Posted August 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 I think we all know what Wynter can do, so SOD probably wants him rested. I'd say its a big test and a much needed chance to shine for Fielding, Killa and Williams. A chance to get over a game for Flint, Cunningham and Maloney.

Yea the more I think about it actually could be a bit of a masterstroke from SOD. Especially with the 3 bouts of 30 minutes he gets plenty of chance to have a word with the team if he's not happy with what hes seeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
