bh_red Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Crap Paper that the bird buys, but the sport is always good.Pre-Season Guide on CityGary Johnson has played a near summer-long waiting game to land Lee Trundle in what looks another managerial master-strokeAfter eight years away from the second tier, a top striker was always the first priority for City and Trundle - who has grabbed at least 20 goals in each of the last four season - looks a snip at £1million.He'll slot in alongside Phil Jevons in what looks a decent strike force.And with 15-goal former Luton giant Enoch Showunmi putting the pressure on, City look ready to provide plenty of excitement.With winger Michael McIndoe and lightning-quick Ivan Sproule proiding some creativity down the flanks, hopes are high at Ashton Gate.There is no bottomless pit of cash, but it would be no suprise to see the team finish safely in mid-tableOUR PREDICTION: 14thpersonally speaking I think it is fairly fair and correct, personally I'll be more than happy with 14th.

Anosk Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 You did buy it, you always do. I'll take 14th place though thanks!! That reminds me, when I as decorating earlier there on an old newspaper I was using (also News of the World) was the match report for City V QPR from a few seasons back. Roberts scored and we won 1-0. It's an omen I tell you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tunley Legend Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 I think we'll stay up but could literally finish anywhere between 10th (similar to Colchester if we steer clear of injuries and everything goes our way) and 21st (I really hope not - it would be nice not to have a nailbiting end to the season).
