First league game of season so I won’t read too much into the result win, lose or draw. Bristol City are a decent but not world beating championship side.
On paper I wouldn’t expect a win but always hopeful. In truth I think a draw would be an excellent start to this seasons campaign.

'On Paper' I would expect a win!
Please don't big up these average sides. We may win, lose or draw the first few fixtures. What is important to see is how we win,lose or draw that will be the key indicator. I think our squad is strong in depth and a few surprises will come from within. We play a lot of posession football and with that you can't lose too many.
If you think we have a better side on paper words fail me...none of our players would get into their side, our best player last season hasn’t even be able to get in their squad
Some people are in for a big wake up Saturday this forum will have its biggest meltdown to date I feel
hopefully I’m wrong and we can nick a draw
Listen to the quest podcast and four four two. I’m encouragedOdds on Sky Bet today
Bristol City 11/10
Draw 5/2
City 12/5
I would have guessed Bristol would be shorter than that...

Why?Has Jodi done his acl again?
What did he post?Have heard this, no idea if any truth but glance at his social media suggests something has happened
This is his most recent tweet
Hopefully nothing in itYes that’s what I seen too, his last RT was about a Roma player who suffered his second ACL which is relatable for him?

Yeah he's done both acl the poor lad zaniolo. Jones just showing solidarityYes that’s what I seen too, his last RT was about a Roma player who suffered his second ACL which is relatable for him?
There are some fantastic individuals in the championship and some decent teams but I am of the opinion that if we can play the way we do then we have a real chance to do well. We have a winning mentality, are used to to playing in empty stadiums and I wouldn’t be surprised if we tickled the play offs.

Oooooh...... tickling the play offs just got a tingle in places I thought had stopped tingling
Brunt? Meh, so what, past his 'sell by'. Shades of Mowbray....And it's the 'other' Sessegnon, so who cares? I would say
- First game of the season - anything can happen
- We have promotion momentum
- But we are missing three key defenders in Dabo, Rose and Sam Mac so a lot relies on Hyam and McFadzean
- We have conceded a number of goals in the pre-season games. Can't see us not conceding, and equally, scoring more than one ourselves.
- I'd love 1-1, but a narrow defeat with lots of positives would not be as bad as all that.
- 1-1 Brilliant, 2-1 not so bad, 3-1 troubling, 4-1 oh cripes.
- The Walker-Baka combination late in the game could be one of Robins' big ideas for the coming season
- It's more about the team showing it is able to stand toe-to-toe away from home against a side with big cash that should be challenging for the play offs.

I know what’s coming this season son,I’m under no illusion like yourself who don’t get why people think we will struggle,do you even know what teams are in the division ? Do you even know what league we are in ?Well seeing as you complain & slate people when we end up winning, god only knows what you'll be like if we lose

I can't argue with that analysis Philosorapter, in fact......I can't understand it (again)!
Read my posts you thick plum hence also why you pick me up for being negativelol, you don't know though do you, you've proven every match you don't really understand what you're watching & just end up slating Robins telling him to make multiple changes
Read my posts you thick plum hence also why you pick me up for being negativeI know full well we are fully up against it this season.
OK so many on here not giving our own team much encouragement. I find that staggering after the very good transfers we have had, MR's ability, confidence in the side and spirit. We were beging to run away with the league last season and we have strengthened really well.
So perhaps then it's time for some honesty and a prediction poll? Put your name on it, then there is no argument. For me I think we will be at least mid table.
