    Loans: What are we getting wrong ?

    We're in the middle ground of having a first team squad that is too strong for youth players to work their way into... and equally, we havent got the luxury of having a youth team full of prospects who L1 and L2 teams are dying to get hold of.

    It'll be Watford probably, so we play them twice in a week as well 🤦‍♂️

    Match Thread Coventry City - Oxford Utd - Match Thread - Friday 16th Aug 8pm KO

    i think this is the point - they've won one game and are confident, they're favourites to get relegated. Not one of their players gets near our starting 11, even with the "issues" we think we have. Anything but a win is disappointing... not saying it cant happen, but it shouldn't

    After 25 years away, we'd easily take 5k to an away game on a Friday night tbf

    Away kit

    Think it's pretty fair to expect your football teams range of kits to be out before the season starts... 3rd kit maybe being the exception... disappointing it's not but it's hardly one to lose sleep over or comment on twatter every day!

    i thought we'd lose to Stoke, but confident we'll win tomorrow. Can see a bit of a fortress Ricoh style thing happening again this season. people talking about "form" and previous results are mental, we've played one league game and a mickey mouse cup game where loads make changes. them winning...

    Match Thread Bristol City FC - Coventry City [LC] Match Thread - Tuesday 13th Aug

    I've said we should play our strongest XI and try and win (y) We beat Oxford 6.2 last season, yes they won last weekend, doesn't change the fact they will do well to stay up

    Match Thread Bristol City FC - Coventry City [LC] Match Thread - Tuesday 13th Aug

    i get the result will largely be irrelevant but from the weekend it looked like we'd never played football together, so treat it like a friendly and play our strongest XI, a win (and goals) for some confidence to kick start the season would be nice In reality, Oxford should be one of our easier...

    Summer transfer window 2024

    spot on... i'm hopeful we see more subs next season and earlier on in games, having the ability to take players off and keep them fresh is huge

    the dhillons beer is horrendous - i know they're local and all that but its bordering on undrinkable! fan zone outside the ground is far better

    Paramount +

    won't be impacted at all i imagine, people that go to football want to be at the football not sat in front of the tele. Everyone now has access to watch whatever game they want (legally or illegally!) and they still choose to go (y)

    Sheaf

    all about opinions i suppose. I couldnt disagree more. He's a CDM, his job is to win the ball back, help out the defence and turn defence into attack. Without looking at the stats i'd be amazed if he isnt up there with the best in the league. we dont/shouldnt rely on him to score goals...

    Are we being “hyped”?

    Sheff Utd on paper making lots of signings, but look at how that turned out for us last season... i imagine after one of the worst seasons in footballing history, dropping back to the championship and trying to bed in a whole new squad of players, they'll be slow starters, especially if they...

    Season Ticket Holder Survey - Travel

    various shuttles with P&R would be great, dont even think they need to bother with "free"... Just keep it to a few quid and it'll get used!

    Are we being “hyped”?

    I've mentioned before on here about being the "best of the rest" slightly ignoring the parachute/relegated teams and that getting you in the play offs. I genuinely think we could be, i do still think that we are likely to see at least 2/3 strong performers from Burnley/Sheff Utd/Leeds/Luton...
