Clever answer but the rail websites show all trains as stopping at the arena including 5pm which isn’t the case in reality is it?

It does stop at that time. They all do. The 5pm one gets pretty rammed though obviously.

Yes BSB is often reporting on it, says something like 4 -50pm , don't know if that's leave the stadium or or actually on the platform?

 

[gspotgaz]

Anyone know where exactly the shuttle leaves from around the train station?

 

[StrettoBoy]

Rushworth
MVE Thomas Kitching Dasilva
Grimes
Torp Rudoni
Sakamoto Wright EMC

That's the starting lineup that I would like to see.

I think, however, that FL will want to ease Saka back in so I reckon BTA will start on the left.

Weird how you get very winnable games like this where you're not confident at all. It's not even that they're a bogey team either, just something in the air. Win today would be huge, I think Norwich will do well this season.

you want the bus interchange at the station which is on the other side of the road by central six.

If we attack the way we have and tighten up at the back a bit we should win

If we are all at sea defensively I worry a bit about the outcome today because you cant give players like Sargent the chances to hurt you

I'm not sure why we haven't recruited a defensive coach of similar calibre to the others Lampard's brought in.

TBF mate the goals at Oxford were more down to the keeper than anything, it's not as if they created much otherwise. We've not conceded many chances in any of the games so far.

For fucks sake!!
Just getting ready to go to the game, was in the shower and the beer offer came to mind, thought 'that ends at 1.30, it's not a 12.30 kick off!

Dopey bastard!

You're right, it's a noon kick off today. Get yourself down there sharp

Hopefully Sargent will be feeling less than 100% after returning from international duty in the States.

I doubt Lampard will give Woolfenden a start any time soon, so the back 4 will have to be 100% on their game to keep a clean sheet.
I rate Sargent as the best striker in the championship, and im suprised they held on to him in the window.

Im going 2-1 City in a tight game.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Chinos back on!

Not today, on baby duty!

Congratulations, boy or girl?

True , I think i worry more about the defensive cover than the defence more than anything , Oxford we were hopelessly exposed on the flanks as the wingers were caught too high .

I just worry today against a higher quality opposition it might hurt us more

Every set piece has been a golden chance for the opposition!

Strange how we've looked quite solid in open play, and yet so vulnerable from every dead ball situation.

Hopefully we've spent the international break learning to organise for set pieces.

Great stuff. Congratulations to you and Mrs. BSB

It would help if we stopped giving them away in such threatening positions. Thomas especially.

He never played will be fresh.

Travelling is draining on its own.

Agreed, i like Thomas, but let's hope hes learnt to be more careful, especially now we have quality cover available.

I think his place is more under threat than Kitchings at the moment.

Glad the wait is finally over.
Coventry to win 2-0, Haji with both goals.

Feels like we've hardly played at Home this season, this is only my 2nd visit as I was away for Hull

It's individuals that are switching off and not winning their personal battles.

 

[Grimetime]

Top of Beake Avenue has been closed for some sort of major incident, seems like it'll be closed for a while longer still if anyone comes that way.

Great start for Ramsey at Leicester

Great start for Ramsey at Leicester

He will be banned for next Saturday

Why on earth would BTA start on the left if EMC is in the starting lineup?
