About to head off for Brizzle 11:16 - Oct 25 with 2171 views | _clive_baker_ | Meeting a couple of Bristol based mates pre match for a couple of pints. Which is nice. Line up prediction is a very safe bet of: Hladky Williams Woolf Burgess Davis Morsy Luongo Hutchinson Chaplin Broadhead Hirst Can't see much reason to deviate from that myself, although Harness or Jackson for Hutchinson is possible, I just think we'll give Omari the chance a la Southampton away, albeit on the right tonight. I've only seen us at Ashton Gate once and we won, so there's hopefully an omen. I'll go for a narrow win, 0-1 thanks to a Broadhead worldie. It would be a huge win if we can get it, to tip ourselves over a latest milestone to 31 points, 14 clear of Norwich (and still with a game in hand) and hopefully Stoke can get a result against Leeds. I'll be interested to see how Preston get on against Southampton, I think there's an argument a Preston win would be preferrable given So'ton seem to be getting their sh1t together, and arguably more likely up there for the course than Preston.

Suspect you're right on the line-up, although I do wonder if this might be another one where we see Taylor in for Luongo. Safe travel everyone and COYB. |  | |  |

About to head off for Brizzle on 11:52 - Oct 25 with 2043 views | SomethingBlue | Heading along in a couple of hours and looking forward to it. Another three points at this stage would, given the way the pack below are panning out, put us in an absolutely insane position whatever anyone else does. Very tough game tho, Pearson knows what he's doing and so do most of those City players, the crowd might give it an extra 10% with their Ashton weirdness, a draw feels likely to me and not a result I'd quibble with in advance.

Leaving London now... on 12:01 - Oct 25 with 1997 views | unstableblue | Agree on your team selection. And they all know what to do. And sounds like the weekend gave them some further training ground prep time ahead of Ashton Gate. Agree also that tonight is a key moment.. can we win and keep the momentum after a ridiculous 18 day break. If we could we can keep daylight between us an Leeds, and go into Plymouth home game with a win after our belts we'll be in a good place. I do fear the emotion down at Bristol around Pearson, Ashton, ownership means they could get fired up... but we just need to play our game get into them early... .. and crucially the away following need to fire up from the get-go, not spectate and wait, but back. Sing loud blue army. McKenna has asked for it again. |  |

About to head off for Brizzle on 12:28 - Oct 25 with 1929 views | FoD_Blue | I work about 25 minutes from Ashton Gate, on the other side of Bristol. City fans in the office are saying that they were very poor on Saturday, when they beat Coventry and that they were very lucky to get anything from the game. Also heard that the Bristol fans have been complaining that they sell too many away tickets so the away fans are too loud and overpower their own support?! 90 minutes+ of constant singing then...

Yes consensus seems to be a poor performance against Coventry despite the 3 points As I've been ranting about... we have to bring the noise and support from the get go tonight... help the team fire to fire up after the long break.. and silence the locals Enjoy the game |  |
