Can't see us winning

Lacking Haji, Sheaf and EMC is just too much

I agree but sheaf isn’t a massive miss and haji has been out a while tbf.

We only need to nick the game 1-0. Or just keep it tight. Clearly Frank is trying to make us harder to break down and but for 2 injury time goals against Norwich and SW we were keeping clean sheets in both.

Frank needs to find a way for us to win without these players. If we go on a run without a win we can’t use it as an excuse. If he doesn’t feel he can, the owner should be backing him with new signings

Not massively enthused by today. Despite some of the doom mongering on here I still don’t think we’ll go down and at the other end play offs are all but a pipe dream at this point.

No new or revived players to be excited about and no real change in tactics to excite either.

I hope we put in a good shift, Bristol have some good Championship players, and I’m really, really hoping we continue to see the reemergence of Simms.

Simms is such an underrated player on here and in the stands. If he ran around more and pointed for impossible passes he’d be loved.

Despite this sounding a more negative post than intended (!), I actually think we’ll get something today.

And that's why he isn't liked looks like he doesn't give a shit,very rarely gets the timing of headers right never wins a header and he can't even shoot properly.People just want to see some effort.

I'd take the most turgid boring 1-0 in the history of CCFC over a game where we pepper the goal and miss about 5 sitters and draw/lose

I genuinely think this is a massive game and we are fucked if we lose

To be fair he doesn't have a lot of permutations at his disposal at the moment and I wouldn't be surprised if MVE has had to be given a rest.

It’s been honking all season, unbeaten at home since derby, I’m grasping a bit but can see us nicking a win but it won’t be pretty again,

Went to their game against Portsmouth over Christmas and was very impressed. The usual howlers we give away most games will be punished as will overly ponderous football.

1-3

I would ordinarily advise against leaking the team and shape this early but against us it hardly matters!

Wouldn't be against this. He's always done well when he filled in and tbh it's now or never for him

Pleased if BTA and Lati are both starting. Would be very disappointed to see Dasilva start and would support my fears regarding the Bidwell new deal.

Was hoping Bidwell for Warwick Davis but that wouldn’t class as interesting

I would seriously consider playing Eccles RWB.
MVE is going to end up injured if he doesn't get a break in my opinion.

Shiver me timbers, Eccles and Thomas attempting to pass on the same side, but yes I think that would work and get Eccles out of midfield, about time Torp stepped up
