Subscriber Pyfish+ Posted October 14, 2020 Subscriber Posted October 14, 2020 Leyton Orient have had a similar start to the season than us so it could go either way really. I'm slightly more optimistic after winning 3-1 against Cheltenham last night so I'm hoping we can carry that performance into this game and build upon it. We still have a lot to work on in terms of our shots actually being on target but we are making decent progress.
cityfan99 Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 Hopefully the blueboys will do the business against Garry Monks side! Good to see quite a few Championship games live on Sky https://www.wheresthematch.com/live-championship-football-on-tv/ They normally focus on the Prem
Dave Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 Could be some big scores this week... Bristol City vs Barnsley. Swansea vs Huddersfield. Blackburn vs Forest. Norwich vs Rotherham. Anybody vs Wycombe. Brentford / Coventry is the game to watch for me. With Brentford's attack and how open Coventry have been that could he a very high scoring game.
Subscriber Pyfish+ Posted October 15, 2020 Subscriber Posted October 15, 2020 I've been impressed with Bristol City's start so hope they can keep it up. Did my latest podcast episode about them and it's crazy to believe their last shot at promotion to the Premier League was the 2008 Play Off Final v Hull.

They have a habit of doing well but then fading away towards the end of the season. It's how Lee Johnson got sacked in the end, though didn't quite blow it as badly as Lamouchi.

Dean Holden has surprised a lot this season with his transfer activity and the style of play and results on the pitch. He has taken his experience of being number 2 to Lee Johnson and hopefully found areas of weakness that Lee didn't deal with. i guess we'll have to wait until towards the end of the campaign to see if Holden is still delivering what the team needs.
Smiley Culture Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 That’s Cocu gone then. Over to the next mug to take the Derby job.
Lucas Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 That was a massive win for Chris Hughton today. What a start. Classic Forest smash and grab.
Subscriber Pyfish+ Posted October 17, 2020 Subscriber Posted October 17, 2020 Just watching our game now. Losing 1-0 already. Orient scored after 4 minutes.
Danny Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 Didn’t see the game but a good win for us today and good to see Toney score two, you don’t wanna finally spend big on a player and then they struggle. Back to winning ways Brentford, hopefully can put a run together now
Subscriber Pyfish+ Posted October 17, 2020 Subscriber Posted October 17, 2020 Ours finished 3-2 after we got a late penalty. I was impressed by our performance and hoping we can see more of that going forward. To score 6 goals in 2 games after not scoring in our first few matches is brilliant.

It's crazy there has never been a side from bristol in the premier league when you think about how big the city is. Cant think of a bigger city that has never had a team in the premier league. Think city were last in the top flight in the 80s
Danny Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 It’s cos everyone in the West Country supports United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs

Then we have Canos who prior to his season long injury last season was smashing the assists away, Fosu and Ghoddos. Won’t replace Benrahmas output singularly, he’s phenomenal. But we’ve players who can make up at least 2/3’s of that.

Should be there or thereabouts I reckon.

Should be there or thereabouts I reckon. I hope so. I don’t doubt Thomas Frank, brilliant first full season in charge last season. This season is about maintaining last seasons performances and just try and be more consistent with results. If we’re more consistent then we’re one of the favourites for the automatics

To be fair to Dean Holden, the things the fans complained about under Lee Johnson even when things were going well he's worked on. Employing the man in Johnson's shadow for years may turn out to be a stroke of genius. On 16/10/2020 at 21:39, Smiley Culture said: That’s Cocu gone then. Over to the next mug to take the Derby job. Feel a bit sorry for him if he's gone after that performance as the only difference was an exceptionally good goal. Watford look to be the best team in the divison defensively at the minute too. I imagine if he was to go the first person the board will approach is Wayne Rooney. Whether that's for recommendations or to offer him a new role. 19 hours ago, Lucas said: That was a massive win for Chris Hughton today. What a start. Classic Forest smash and grab. Its a very shrewd appointment. Keeps them as solid defensively as last season and with Knockeart there's every chance he can get them playing like Brighton over the course of this and next season. I'm intrigued to see how their board ruin it. 16 hours ago, Danny said: Didn’t see the game but a good win for us today and good to see Toney score two, you don’t wanna finally spend big on a player and then they struggle. Back to winning ways Brentford, hopefully can put a run together now Ivan Toney looked very assured in the highlights. Surprised at how many he's scored already as he hasn't "dominated" games. Can definitely see him in the PL in two years time.
Dave Posted October 18, 2020 Posted October 18, 2020 Preston North End against a Neil Harris side has been everything you'd expect so far. 0 - 0 at half time.
