It’s going to be so important he’s fit for out last few games where we have nothing to play for as we strive for mid table obscurity. Really can’t understand why we’ve loaned him. The talk is we are unlikely to be able to sign him so not sure what the sense was. PR stunt maybe?? 1 Quote Link to comment
mozo Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 My total guess would be that Twine plays the first hour. I'm not sure how Knight fits in though, presuming Mehmeti and Sykes continue in the wider roles Quote Link to comment
DaveInSA Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 I think we’ll win this today. As others have said, if we ply on the counter we’ve got every chance. It would be “so Bristol city” to do that. 3 Quote Link to comment

They are a team that grind you down and build pressure. They are a bit of a different team to anyone else in this division. Okay, I’m basically saying I’ve no idea how this will play out, but Corberan is probably the best coach in this division! 2 Quote Link to comment

Agreed, if we get anything today it will be a hard fought draw with a good performance required from Max. I'd be delighted with that though tbf. 1 Quote Link to comment

Something akin to the Millwall draw last season that dragged us out of that slump (and put pay to the "Pearson out" chat) would be perfectly fine. Quote Link to comment

I remember it as solid, a little bit swashbuckling maybe. Think I'd say we absolutely deserved the point we got and probably could have taken 3 if we'd won the "moments". But it was a proper new dawn after the dark of the preceding month or so. Would be nice to see the sun rise at 5pm today. 2 Quote Link to comment

Stop them building wide so can't leave gaps by bombing on. Through balls early rather than too much width in our attack. All easier said than done. Could be a good game for TC if played this way. 2 Quote Link to comment

EstoniaTallinnRed Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 Afternoon all, can't believe that the OS has RB on already, Andy Bennett is still on, wonders will never cease. Anyway, let's hope a good performance against WBA is going to happen, I would take a draw now that would be good, but if we do manage a win then I would be over the moon. So, So Come On You Red's.

petehinton Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 Williams injured, Twine clearly still not fit as there’s no way he’d be on the bench if they were confident he was totally fine. Quote Link to comment
brad blit Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 I can’t believe we’ve actually filled the bench for once Quote Link to comment
The Original OTIB Posted March 16 Report Share Posted March 16 Mehmeti worries me here. This is a game for discipline. Him in front of Roberts? That is our weakness right there for a team that kills teams down the flanks. Happy for Anis to have a stormer tracking back and winning tackles. Quote Link to comment

Tbf they combined brilliantly against oxford in the Cup, all be it against league one opposition but it’s been a pairing i’ve wanted to see more of all year. Quote Link to comment
