Bristol City Vs Swindon Matchday Thread

[Matchworn Shirts]

I'd go...

Fodders
Turnbull Stephens Ricketts
Byrne Luongo Kasim Swift Toffolo
Willo Obika

I would also go for two up front, make Flint work his feet and I reckon we'll get a bit of success

[4D]

the 'love in' between City and PNE fans is quite funny

Sweet, ain't it.
Be interesting to see if they still feel the same after Saturday.

[REDBUCK]

Our wing backs doing their defensive duties will be key and playing rickets to compete for the balls forward to their CF. Oh and winning the second ball in and around our box. Its key to how City play

Yep I would have no problem with that line up.
Will be going tonight with my lad. Can't say I am looking forward to it. As others have said the MKD result knocked the stuffing out of me.

However this is Swindon, expect the unexpected or the kick in the balls.

Last time we lost 3-0 at home we came back to win 3-0 away the next game.

[Arriba]

Head says we'll lose, heart says we'll win. I'll take the draw. 1-1 I think

[Gnasher]

I think this game is all about trying to hold onto finishing 3rd and keeping the Shitty's last win against us in 2003.

That's my view too.

We're just as likely to smash them 4-0 as lose 4-0. That's the Swindon way.

You're all a bunch of defeatist fannies

We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in Swindon now-a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs’d they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Cooper’s day.

[Posh Red]

If we can keep the game at 0-0 until half time (or better still nick a goal) then I think we can get something from the game.

If we let in an early goal then I can see us getting a bit of thrashing.

Obviously hoping for the former, but fearing that the latter is more likely.

Only bright spot is that there aren't many shitheads up this way

[Matchworn Shirts]

is that horrible little cunt Wade Elliott due to be playing?

[Batch]

And hold their manhoods cheap

[JoeMezz]

Think this is going to be a tight game. Similar to Saturday be vital for the team that score first. Stephens to get sent off.

I feel ashamed, slightly humiliated. Changed my mind to a 4 0 win to us. How can we lose with Saint Cooper with us, what was I thinking.

[Power to people]

The concern is - is Rickets fit enough to play 2 games in 4 days, he's not played much football recently would it be a risk putting him in the centre of defence ?

I think I'd like to see Stephens moved back into defence though regardless he played well in the centre previously whe ncovering for Thompson.

I still cant get my head round Rickets being played in an un-familiar midfield role according to Cooper it was to track the runs of Deli Alli big mistake I think and I think overall that made us too defensive.

We have to go for it tonight though get that confidence back and get a good run going heading into the play-off's

This for me too but with Ricketts as the sweeper.
