It will be just like city to lose this game tomorrow I have seen it time and time again let's just hope for a changing of the tide under Manning we need to go there and keep those energy levels up get in there faces win our 50/50s press them from the first minute and look to really get at there makeshift defence. I can see us winning comfortably if we play at the same levels as the last 3 games. With Millwall on NYD at home and a free hit v West Ham to come, I’m looking forward to 2024 with an air of confidence for a change With players returning from injury in particular McCrorie who I think will be a huge player for us for the rest of the season and a couple of January signings it has the makings of an interesting & exciting time Quote Link to comment

When I suggested the next two games were winnable I was jumped on from a great height. I do sometimes wonder if the problem with Bristol City is not the players, Manager or the clowns at the top but the rank and file supporters? Sold out tomorrow so I hope all 2,000 are expecting and rooting for a win, followed by a large bank holiday crowd and a hammering for Millwall. I even fancy us to give the Hammers a game if they field a 2nd 11. Off for a lie down now and some more medication. Quote Link to comment

If we got really done, by 4 or 5 then yes I think there'd be a move against him. I don't think we will though, Bristol don't seem like a 4 in a row, top 6 kind of team to me. They're due a defeat.

Pip King Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 If we do end up drubbing then tomorrow (which I doubt will happen but I dare to dream) anyone care to join me in a chant of "USA! USA!" Drove me mad when they started chanting it at AG in the reverse fixture and, petty man that I am, I'd love to repay them the favour now that they're somewhat less enamored with their yank benefactors. 4 Quote Link to comment

Louie Donowa? Dele Adebola? I think - not direct transfers either way though. 1 Quote Link to comment

ashton_fan Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 Birmingham have severe injury problems especially in defence yet their fans still expect to win, most thinking along the lines "If we can't beat Bristol at home then we're really in the s***", fans from other teams always look at us as an easy fixture regardless of how we're playing at the time.

Mr Popodopolous Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 They looked very cohesive at Ashton Gate. However we were not quite at it either...bit of both, them buoyant- us post Scott. Change of manager of course. Anyway we are in trouble..Prutton has predicted us to win!! Quote Link to comment

DaveInSA Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 We should win this one too. I have a little bit of a dislike for the inferior and blue BCFC. I’ll go for 2-1 to the red BCFC. Quote Link to comment

cityexile Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 Did not fancy us to win against Sunderland, Hull or Watford in truth. On current form, I do fancy us tomorrow. So, we are getting tonked. 2 Quote Link to comment
