We're back, baby!

Not sure about the aging squad comment, but otherwise some valid points that are hard to argue with.

Our right side is a bit suspect defensively and we've lost some big names that haven't been replaced yet.

Very good time to play us. Don't really know what to expect tomorrow, but we're still favourites for me.

 

[Northyorksblade]

Second. Your commitment is second to none.

 

[Gimli]

They’re banging on about our ‘weak right hand side’ but have missed the fact we have no CBs.

I actually think Brooks and Seriki could be class this season, though understand where the Bristol CITY fans are coming from.

Good to have you back Roy.

Its just to have the season back. Come on you Ted and White Wizards!
UTB!!

7th

Thanks Roy

Aging side comment is weird, we have two players over 30 in our squad and one is our back up goalie, we're a pretty young side all things considered

 

[Tezza1889]

Welcome back, cheers...

 

[SirNibletsO'Korne]

Thanks Roy. To the Bristol fans thinking they're going to have their pants pulled down, I'm as broadminded as the next man but let's see how the game goes first. Maybe some dancing and a light kidney punching and who knows where it'll end.

Aged squad? Most of them are just out of school

[SwitchBLADE Smiles]

Surprised how knowledgeable some of their fans are of our squad. Decent comments by & large IMO (although ‘ageing squad’ is a weird line).

Genuinely don’t know what to expect this season. There’s a realistic shout that we could end up anywhere between 1st and 23rd - decent opener against a side we absolutely bummed just a few weeks ago. Should be a good barometer of where we are as a side now.

2-0 Blades.

Bizarre comment.

I make our average age (from players allocated squad numbers) to be 23. Some people just hear stuff and spout it back out as fact.

We only have 6 players over 25 and 3 of them won't feature much - All the Davies' ironically - Adam, Tom & Rhys Norrington
The other 3 over 25 are Jack Robinson, Callum O'Hare and official best player in the Championship, Gus Hamer

 

[originaltrueblade]

Weird lot city fans …..we need to stuff em yet again and make The Gas happy

Thanks Roy good to have these posts back

 

[snb69]

Cheers Roy, love seeing these back. Mostly well thought out comments, even if a few of the conclusions are suspect.

5-3 Blades

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

Think they are going to get a shock down the right hand side, especially with O’Hare there pressing the life out of them

 

[metalblade]

I'm not too worried about Seriki and Brooks on our right Robbo and Burrows on the left is a bigger worry for me. Ageing squad ???????

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

Don’t remember Seriki having a bad game against them in the 1-1 either. Wilder took him off as he wanted to see the 1 - 0 out, unsurprisingly.

 

[Tarqs]

Shoutout to the last fella who thinks we have an aging squad.

Mental take.

 

[Davalon]

One or two appear to watch us more than some of the posters on here

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Fairly sensible and pretty well informed. Except the ones who think 5:30 is night time.

They could have really wound us up and said, dinner time

 

[I should coco]

Far too many comments about the technical side of the game and nobody saying 'I've always preferred Wednesday".

Obviously another made up one from Roygbiv , who couldn't be arsed to do the leg work.

Anything less than a 3 goal winning margin is a step backwards. Easy this criticise the manager lark. UTB

You clearly do, it's 5 BTW.
