Can only assume Eccles is carrying a knock?

Robins hasn't left him out for about 2 years when he's fit!

Allen hasn’t been fit for much of last season. He was almost the first name on the team sheet the previous season - once sheaf is fit there will be a lot of competition for places.

Would you recommend? Feeling a bit peckish right now - cutting it fine for KO.

I like Allen, only concern is that Torp & Allen don't give as much cover defensively as Eccles.

I agree, which is why I said I would start with Allen and Eccles even though I really like Torp as well. I’m sure they will all get some good game time this year with substitutions and squad rotation.

Glad Bidwell is captain, he deserves it. Slightly worried about midfield, but looking at the subs bench, we really do have players to turn the game round if needed

Most impressed with the bench, having the depth this season will help massively. Nice touch with Bidwell as captain, leads by example.

Looking forward to kick off ⚽️

I’m starting to get really excited now.

Wherever we finish - and obviously I hope it is in the top two - we should see some attractive attacking football this season.

Wison on the bench. Goodbye Collins
Click to expand...

Just seen that. I think Collins is the better keeper but not sure he’d be happy as No 2, shame as would rather have proper competition for No 1 during season

Pretty much as expected. Would’ve had Eccles in if fully fit but happy enough

Come on city, let’s get off to a flyer*


*no meltdowns if we don’t though please !

Our attack-minded options from the bench are unreal:

Wright
BTA
Palmer
Tavares
Andrews

Definitely an upgrade on Godden

also does Eccles not starting suggest Robins sees it the same as a fair few here, that he’s not good enough to play the holding role on his own / without Sheaf?

Thankfully they've upgraded the picture on the red button so it no longer looks like they're using a dial up modem. Could do with Clive and Oggy rather than whoever this is though
