Septic Peg Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Good day folks. It's a beautiful day in Bristol right now as over 1k City fans drive up the M5 to fellow playoff hopefuls Villa. I had a whole thread planned and then my mum's best friend gave me a bottle of her homemade Italian red wine and all I can think of now is paracetamol and Costa coffee. I'm a bad human. So with that in mind, I'll be digging through this weeks Twitter feed and having a debate... At the Brom game, a certain duo were photographed sitting in the SS, courtesy of OTIB mod @WesM... Darren Way and Dean Smith were also in attendance. But no one seems to know why Dopey and co were there. Rumours abound that he's taking over at Yeovil, Marcus was taking his pal for a night out or perhaps Marcus is trying for a job with old buddies Lee and Jamie and took Dopey for moral support. No one really knows... hmmm. So what's the tea? Any ITKs out there? Any one wondering what Dopey thought of AG? Any one wondering what Dopey thinks of "that lot up the road?" now? On to today. No doubt Villa will be giving it "it's your big day out" blah blah blah. But this has a draw written all over it. Our away form is scorching right now and Villa aren't playing to shabby neither. 2-2 draw. Mings is also banned because he's a naughty boy. Ones to watch are City rejects Kodj, Tammy Tammy and Uncle Albert. Also the slimeball himself Jack Grealish. The man has more grease in his hair than KFC on Winterstoke Road. We are Villa's feeder club. Never forget. Until next time folks. COYRs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseybean Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Let’s hope SP that later on you are cracking open another bottle of the homemade Italian red to celebrate a famous City win. To all the travelling Reds, give it large and roar the boys on, just like you have all season. Whatever the result today this season still has loads of twists and turns in it. This is easily the game of the day in the Championship, with a big crowd and two teams in form who are sitting alongside each other in play off places - it promises to be a cracker. COYR.

Yahtzee reference was certainly only tongue in cheek. I think it's fantastic he has learned and improved that aspect of his management from last season. Really impressed with the way he has refreshed us since the international break, we looked stale on that bad run and the tactical changes and well executed subs have made a massive difference at a key time in the season.

If it doesn't work it will be a bit upsetting, but I'd rather go down chasing glory that hanging on for a point. I'll take a repeat of the WBA game, even if I still haven't quite recovered from that!
