    Club Shop

    Anytime I’m at an event at the Arena I can’t help but nip into the shop before or after. I was there last week and I was disappointed a lot of the Christmas jumpers had either gone or only had limited sizes. I found the sizing point to be an issue throughout the shop, most things I looked at...

    What are you currently listening to?

    Missed my planned last train home on Wednesday so had to revert to the 2.5 hour slow one. Was obviously in a bit of a reflective mood as I randomly ended up down a The National rabbit hole and found a really beautiful, sombre song I now can’t stop playing called ‘Once Upon a Poolside’ - it also...

    Things that annoy you

    I don’t care if this one sounds petty - and it’ll absolutely happen tomorrow - blokes going into the toilets at the ground via the Exit door and not the Entrance. Pure laziness and selfishness.

    Video PRESS CONFERENCE | Frank Lampard and Jack Rudoni look ahead to Bristol City. 🎙️

    They are just two fans doing a job most of us would enjoy doing. It’s local radio, not too sure what the expectation is. Clive was loved but he was also clumsy and awkward at times. Best bit of the interview - and way more important - was Rudoni describing the club as a family. Further...

    Slight fear the fickleness of our fans may emerge tomorrow if we don’t start well or even worse, concede. Even worse, as fans get desperate we might even hear the dinosaur “Forward” shout too.

    This is exactly why he can be polarising and frustrating. He has the ability to be an absolute game changer and influence games single handedly. Issue is he only does it once every three/four games.

    Biggest thing for tomorrow is how fit the players are. I think they’ve (understandably) downplayed this sickness/virus going round the club. They are all together for several hours 5/6 days a week. It’s pretty unlikely any illness will be isolated. As we saw with Torp and then MVE. I wouldn’t...

    Badge it how you want. That’s a shit result. Under performances and wrong tactics.

    Yep, all correct. But he was and the defending was lazy. So really not idea why you replied to my comment stating that.

    Right, subs now. Wright is knackered, he hasn’t touched the ball for ages and that was lazy defending.

    Simms time please. Wright has had one of his better games but must be feeling it now. Simms will thrive on constant balls into the box.

    If we’re trying to stretch them - which we should - it needs Sakamoto hugging the touch line and not wasted as a part 10/part winger position.

    Shades of the WBA game here, where we’re going to absolutely bombard them and eventually we’ll break them down (hopefully). I’d expect a formation and personnel change at HT.

    We’re playing ok but the formation is a waste for me. Not really made us look more solid defensively and we aren’t controlling possession. Prefer to go back to the usual and play on the front foot. Albeit the counter is working for us.

    Pitch looks horrendous and their defence looks very pedestrian. Let’s hope it’s an ‘on it’ Wright performance.
