    I am hoping it is like Sheff Utd away. Chris Wilder 1st game. But early. Hope same for Roy. That was a major - can't use word Massive - 1-0 win

    I’d save TC, Bell and maybe even Dykes for Monday. Give Kelman, Gillesphey and Leaburn the opportunity to start 
    Dykes only played a few minutes on Tuesday, and only had to travel back from Liverpool, so no need to rest him. 

    With the number of Jamaica and DR Congo players coming back to England, you'd hope that they got together to organise a prompt flight home after the game, but this is one occasion when resting TC and Bell might be wise.

    Collins and Burke are out Burke is training but Collins little longer .. but Godden and Knibbs are back .. Campbell and Bell should not be included considering late arrival back at sparrows lane …. Going for a draw 1-1 
    You always have some reason why Campbell should not play, but I have to agree with you on this one.

    You are in an unusually 'sunny' mood today.

    Doubt if Bell will play, after his Jamaca stint. So that weakens us at the back. Would like to see Fullah get some minutes.

    Bell didn’t get many minutes did he?

    Just over half an hour but its more the flying + heat and humidity, not too good for sensitive muscles

    Absolutely no idea what to expect from Bristol City. Let’s just not give Scott Twine a chance to bury a free kick 
    Got the feeling he will stick one in so we’ll need to score twice to win.

    Surely whether the Jamaican boys are ready to play will be largely down to them, if they feel they are too tired then don't play them, or perhaps if they think they are ok to start, they can maybe come off in the second half.

    Given Bristol's lack of centre backs, TC's short turnaround from international duty and NJ's love of "sticking it on them", I think the big-big combo of Dykes and Leaburn up top is pretty likely.

    Wouldn't say that I'm overly keen to see it at all but if we do go that way I hope we do it with a bit more purpose and direction to try and win some knockdowns for runners, rather than settling for aimless long balls.

    Exciting to have some returning players - would love to see Godden and Knibbs get a short run out to end the game.

    Lyndon Dykes fancies his chances of a goal or two today when he sees Bristol City's emergency centre back warming up pre-match.

    Anyone know why they sacked Struber? Also, why didn’t they get Manning back in? He was good for them.

    4-1 Biggest win of the season. Think Coady will come in to negate Twine and Kelman will partner Dykes. Former will have a good day at the office facing inexperienced or non-centre backs. COYRs!

    TC will definitely start, IMO. Jonesy loves him. Big opportunity for us today. Win and were virtually safe.

    Results had been poor recently for Struber but I think the main reason was a fallout with those upstairs. Fans are not happy with the owners as they sold 2 of their best players in January when in play off contention and they have fallen off massively since then

    Mehmeti was the big blow to them. 1 in 3 goalscorer and for a few million.

    Cant go today due to work commitments but hopefully we get something out of the game, even if its a point. Hope they dont get a RH boost but sure they will pack their end. Went to the 0-0 away and we gave them a hard game hope we can do the same. Enjoy those that are going.

    He should bring his set and play on the side of the pitch with his Crystal Palace mates.

    2-0 Kelman double.

    A very difficult line up to predict, with TC and Bell only reporting back yesterday. A Dykes and Leaburn combination up top generally tends to encourage too much hoof ball, so maybe Nathan will give Charlie Kelman a start. 

    I can see TC coming on in the second half, maybe even at left wing back. 

    A big game this and a good opportunity to hit 51 points. Hopefully Hodgson won’t provide City with an interim manager bounce. At least the appointment means that I’m less likely to chance upon Roy in Waitrose Richmond muttering at the veg display.

    They're already on the beach and likely won't give too much of a hoot about impressing an interim manager.  2-0 the reds 🤜
    Bristol city play in red
    Not at the valley they ain't 😜
    Maybe you should’ve said “2-0 the Robins”?
