I couldn't have done it without the Google. Display your knowledge though by stating/guessing who indeed was our last Championship goalscorer.
It's good but its not rightClingan?
McDonald or Platt

It was indeed Sir Clive Platt. I forgot he was our main man in the end. No wonder we went down.Exact two I was thinking, I will go with Clive Platt
He bagged an O.G. for Bristol City for us towards the end of the season. Must have had him in League one?Stead?

This is how we lined up in the first game of the last season v Leicester at home ( one nil defeat )
How do we feel we match up? I'd take McSheffrey as he peaking at that point. That's about it though. Juke was decent, but not quite the finished article.
In all honesty I’d take Keogh and Juke and that’s it out that teamView attachment 16493

From that team and taking the players at their quality then, Keogh, Jutkiewicz, McSheffrey.View attachment 16493

Oh I forgot this was post Blues for him. I think I'd leave him in that case. Christie was outstanding going forward in particular.McSheffrey was past his best by then, this was his second spell. Still a useful player mind and probably one of the better ones in that team. I'd have Christie with Dabo out injured and I always rated Cranie.

Yeah I was only really talking about starters, Keogh was a man who would go into war for you, but I wouldn't want to see him and Murphy playing out from the backI'd nearly take the entire defence here. Joe Murphy was a great keeper. Keogh showed what he was capable of while here and stepped it up a gear after he left. Cranie was solid, and although I remember Christie getting a lot of criticism from fans when with us, he also showed how good he was after he went.
Not sure who I'd put in the starting line up though VS who we have now...
Not in that lineup, but does anyone else reckon Freddy Eastwood would have thrived in the O’Hare/Shipley role?
No. Not mobile enough for that role
Eastwood was not cut out for it ultimately, similar to Baka and I hope Baka can shake it off but both seem to have potential but not the capacity to realise it.Not in that lineup, but does anyone else reckon Freddy Eastwood would have thrived in the O’Hare/Shipley role?
Callum Wilson and Jordan Willis also in that squad.
No, I don't. Eastwood was a flash in the pan player and we signed him just after the flame died outNot in that lineup, but does anyone else reckon Freddy Eastwood would have thrived in the O’Hare/Shipley role?

The defence was really good for the level at the time, but the rest of the team was very very poor, you only have to look at how the midfield/attackers careers went after they left us to see how truly poor it was. Only Juke and Baker had a decent career after us!
Agreed - he was poor for us in the championship. Baker and Bell together make me shudderBaker was a League One player so was above his level at the time anyway, he did OK after that but mostly at L1 level.
