i don't blame him. nobody going to remember we lost to Bristol in years to come. but they'll remember if he loses the derby

Points against Bristol could mean top 2 or playoffs, so don’t agree with this, we should be going for both to win with the strongest available team.

… not learned from Leeds, Boro, far too many changes, treating this as a league cup match with both eyes on the Derby on Sunday…

Sorry but we do not have the quality of player to incorporate this much rotation.

I would have gone for a 0-0 or 0-1 blades, now I think they’ll score first and we’ll find it tough to hit back and concede again when we try and go for it, 2-0 Bristol.

Think that's a bit OTT.

Looks a strong team to me. Moore has to rest at some point.

Strongest defence we've got, arguably our best midfielder also back. Changes, but with a win clearly in mind to me

think he’s fucked up here tinkering but we’ll see

Keep same team keep winning keep momentum

Reading a comment by a Coventry fan on here a couple of weeks ago who said that hamer plays better as a 10, which i think we all know, and ohare plays better on the right wing, so presumably that's how they'll play, otherwise there's no point in putting Brooks on the left

That's the spirit

 

[YES Blade]

Its because the kid is a super athlete- have you not noticed how many miles O Hare tracks in a match ,its off the scale elite athlete.He hasn't scored but his pressing is tremendous. Dropping Raki, Moore and Blaster does indeed seem a bit crackpot.Hopefully 0-0 at 60 and the triocome on and impact.

I’m not saying O’Hare is playing badly, I just don’t see why he shouldn’t sometimes start on the bench like the rest of the attacking midfielders do. His performances haven’t been that good to warrant starting every match

 

[Cappy]

Forward formation being used in warm up:
RW Brooks
LW O’Hare
10 Hamer
CF Campbell

whereas in ideal world yes. but you cant have your cake & eat it. to use 100m sprinters as Sunday will be our 5th game in 17 days i think. 100m sprinter dont go 100% in all 3 rounds. because otherwise they wont be at their best for when it matters

we win tonight & drop against Wednesday its still the same outcome. that team is still full of quality

 

[Melton Blade]

This is a big big game for Sydie tonight. I like the lad and see a lot of potential there but with Davies having 75 mins for the U21s today - Sydie really needs to take his chance tonight in the Championship or he may find he faces a L1 future in Jan on loan somewhere.

I'm sure he will be busting a gut to stay in the Championship with the 1st team squad. Good luck, lad.

UTB

 

[Blademan18891889]

Let the manager do his job ffs, none of us having a fucking clue who's fully fit, why a certain player is starting and why they are not. There will be a plan, there always is and yes it isnt going to work every game is it, every club makes a few changes these days when there is midweek games, that's how it is.

 

[raul]

Keefer took an absolute battering last 20 when they took turns to knock lumps off him. Might be a day too soon for him tonight.

 

[Idontlikewednesdays]

Injury for brewdog? Please no!

Brewster scoring is fast moving up my bucket list. I hope to fuck he’s not crocked again

 

[MiserableBlader]

Really tough game 0-0 or a narrow 1-0 defeat.
Wilder will tinker having one eye on Sunday.

Only four full clear days in between then two weeks off?
Not like they are supposed to be professional athletes.

 

[Blade56]

Just switched on and thought commentator said JLT coming on in a few minutes. Has someone been injured in warm up or did I get wrong end of a sentence?

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

AHH this old chestnut. Plus ball used to be a proper Casey, not a beach ball like now.
That's why all other teams just play the same 11 every single match.

 

[Jan Age]

He has to rotate to some extent ….

The only one I would say might not work is Campbell for Moore but when you are as short as we are up front what choice do you have?

 

[MiserableBlader]

Tried not to think about this.
But NOT as bad as feared.
Strong defence and centre mid.
Tactics and formation same imbecilic shambles.
Anyone notice how easy it was for LEFT FOOTED Burrows to score and cross for Moore DOWN THE LEFT SIDE.

[Barnette]

Is the match on SUFC tv? Can't find it in Kenya

 

[Suomi_Blade]

That collar on Bristol city's kit is awful!

 

[Frank the tank]

We've all been asking for hamer to play at ten all. Season so when he puts him there everyone moans

A super athlete?
He scurries around like a rat but has the physical strength (and passing range) of a young Bambi.

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Tidy start but a bit sloppy in the final third. Solid at the back as usual.

 

[FatPaul]

Jammy bleeder.

Hope you like sloppy seconds. I've just called a Taxi for her

I call bullshit!

 

[bigpockets]

Who's the pundit on sky red button? Weird accent.

Who's the pundit on sky red button? Weird accent.

Sounds like Rob Earnshaw

 

[straight_outta_compton]

I call bullshit!

...it was an Uber, not a taxi???

 

[Blade58]

FS bad luck there Hamer

 

[Dimyan93]

Couple poor calls from the ref and the linesman here

 

[SLB]

Sounds like Rob Earnshaw

I thought my Mrs could talk but this cunt will not shut up.Commentator can't get a word in.
