Hog roast in Thornbury tonight?
 

Love a bit of crackling

Not much on their forum; https://www.s24su.com/forum/threads/bristol-city-v-sheffield-united-1-november-2022.92858/

"Going to be a tough game. I fancied City at the start of the season but they've been inconsistent. They certainly have the attacking players to hurt us".

[Wanderingred]

Not sure why but I quite fancy us tonight.

I was on the High Street at about 4pm and saw and heard them............livened the place up though at least, it's usually deserted these days.

Got a hunch we’ll win 3-0. COYR

Forgot that rat McBurnie could be playing against us, can't stand that guy

He' s 36 now and (I think) he last scored against us in 2007 for Scunny.

Yeah I also try to forget the other 7 goals since then to be fair 

[The Fat Controller]

Absolutely no traffic along the portway. Strange!

Aye, on his 21st birthday, as the Sky commentator must have mentioned a thousand times…

[One Team]

Weinmann for Semenyo only change. Right call for me, as has been said many times lately we look better from the start with Wells and Conway and Weinmann supporting and Semenyo coming on later. 

[Lew-T]

Be a different game tonight than Swansea. Hope these young lads give it to the likes of Sharp, Basham, Baldock, Fleck.

 

[robin_unreliant]

I was hoping Atkinson would be back. 

[old_eastender]

[Garland-sweden]

Think we can win tonight 2-1 City. COYR!!!

It feels like Billy Sharp has been haunting us for decades ! Fair play to him , has kept going and has had a wonderful career . Time it ended . 

He scored his first goal against us for Scunthorpe in 1963 

it’s what it feels like anyway

I think we'll win this. Pleased with the forward line-up with Semenyo as super sub- hopefully.

BCFC are always ready to up their game against the top but trip over themselves against the bottom.

3-2

Weimann.

[Offside]

We’re so inconsistent, I’m really not sure how this game will go. I’m happy with the starting 11. Fingers crossed we’ll see the good version of City tonight. 

I’m expecting a low turnout, the concourses seem quiet. 

[YGBjammy]

Just noticed that George Baldock now plays for the Greek national team? Can't be many Baldocks in that squad!

Motorways are absolutely choca at the moment. There may be a knock on effect on the attendance. Crash mixed with bridge closure and the game is on the TV so....

Pointless stat alert:

Scored 9 in 18 games against us and the only club he's scored more against is Blackpool. First goal was in 2006. I remember watching him on Sky back then with my Dad at skittles!

Horrible to play against, but I'd loved to have had him in our team over the years.

Took me an hour from Downend. Ended up going Filton, Henleaze, The Downs, Portway. 

[David Brent]

Grateful once again for a fantastic match day thread. The only place to follow the game.

Why is there so much toxicity on the replies in every tweet the club puts out? Always same old faces.
