Blimey, mate. Chin up. We've been there, you know.

I doubt it will be the walkover some of your fans seem to think it will be.

A city and ground I always enjoy visiting.

Best of luck for the season, after 5pm, of course.

Yeah, you’ve been through it.

But that’s the thing that’s frustrating from our point of view, you’ve been through the mire in the lower division, seen a promotion and now you’re surpassing us, and you’re one of many teams to do so.

It’s not exactly thrilling knowing you’re going to finish between 8th-14th every season.

In typical CCFC fashion....we did not get to see or celebrate (properly) our promotion/title win!!!

It sounds like you'll be alright next year according to the EFL changes.
Expanded play offs 🤔🫣
Dilute the product,, make more money!

There's a slight difference between Wrexham and Bristol City. Wrexham have the players. Bristol City don't.

I know the pitch was a leveler, but 120 minutes against the side cut adrift in League One and only 2 shots on target when the prize was the next round of the cup against a Prem side? Mod table and nothing to play for.

No game is a given, but it's a good time to play them. Onyeka has made the difference we needed and we've started winning away from home. Our tails are back up and Rudoni seems to be finally over his shoulder problem and is like having a new very good signing. Wright has his confidence back and is scoring for fun again. In the last 4 games it's 5 goals for Wright and 3 goals for Rudoni.
Agreed with all you say about us, but they were a very decent side last year and at the start of the season-they absolutely demolished Sheff Utd-and I am surprised they've dropped away from the playoffs so dramatically. Regardless, any side after a humiliation is a wounded, dangerous animal. Plus, after so many years of being a City fan, I err on the side of not counting chickens until they've hatched, purely as a self-protection mechanism.

Would love the 3 points here as genuinely think we'll dog walk Preston even if half the team were injured.

So do we believe all the talk about Thomas and Rudoni being out?
Hoping its social media bullshit.
Two players who are first 11 both getting serious injuries in training in the space of four days training is highly unlikely unless it was a training game and Thomas did a Kastaneer on Rudi. Along with the xmas light photo I think its bollocks but we will see

Chin up, at least you’ve got Preston there for company.

These lot are the first team we played away upon promotion to the Championship - could well be the last time we go there for one season at least 🙏

Good feeling about this, they seem to be in a bit of disarray, can see us winning comfortably.




















Bristol City 1 - 0 Coventry City
'94 Thomas (OG)
Impossible. Thomas broke his legs drink driving, whilst out in Leamington at Xmas.

Evening all.

Well, the mood here is pretty flat. Lots of injuries, selling our best players midway through a season whilst pushing for the top 6 has left a sour taste with the fanbase. The club ownership feels stale currently, and the fans have just lost belief in the hierarchy.

We’re just stinking out the division going nowhere, as usual.
We'll still settle for a draw.
Shake on it?
