Nogbad the Bad Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Sounds like a few changes today whether enforced - a couple of players doubtful apparently - or some of last week's underperforming players being replaced. SC has stressed the AG pitch is much wider than Gilingham are used to and we mean to use it to full effect. Burns and Pearson to start perhaps?

Come on you reds. In a previous prediction thread I've got us down to win 2-1 today. Stll confident of the win. Blue skies and sunshine in Bristol today, perfect setting, just need the City players to stand up and be counted and really go for it today.

Alex_BCFC Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I wouldn't say I'm confident of a win seeing as we have won just 4 of 17 home games but we must win today so a narrow 2-1 I hope.

B-Rizzle Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Anyone else feeling more nervous/anxious than usual today? Personally feel today is HUGE (as is every game). I feel like today's result will have a massive effect on the confidence and morale of both players and fans as well as how it will make the table look. Win - and we're in with a shout. Lose - and I seriously worry about us. 6 more wins we need - I reckon - let's start today! COYR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanatopia Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 SC has packed the midfield with 3 'old' timers... a recipe for solidity or will they be found out like old battleships trying to defend against marauding subs? It might be a boring draw but that is simply not going to be good enough today. if I was the Gills gaffer I would be telling my players to play it fast and pummel the goalie from the off. Old slipper hands might just cost us the match in the first 5. I am hopeful JET will finally get his mojo back however... without some upturn in his form we are going down, make no mistake.

formerly known as ivan Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Last chance for me. If we dont win SC has finally tipped me over the edge... Williams isnt a left back he is a left footed centre half. Osborne is a far better centre back than both el abd and flint yet unless played out of position at right back doesn't start. Cunningham our most consistent player dropped I guess after a poor performance yet JET plays week in wrrk out despite being shit.

Have you included decommissioned fleet auxiliaries and hydrographic vessels?? Well I was quoting the Beeb.. which as we all know is prone to terminological inexactitudes or downright balls ups on frequent occasions. You could, alternatively, consider the Black Sea Fleet entails the 4 main ports, Sevastopol being only one of those and an increasingly minor one at that.. maybe that is about to change. After doing a bit of digging around I am none the wiser so let us assume across all 4 ports known as 'The Black Sea Fleet' they have 'LOTS' of fire power.

Taylor10 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 In terms of personnel that's not a bad 11. However it's very much a case of square pegs in round holes again. Why Cunningham has been dropped I don't know. Osbourne has had a few sloppy moments of late but can't believe he is dropped and El-Abd isn't. Actually I can as El-Abd is a 'tough cookie' and one of Steve's boys. Personally wouldn't have dropped Pack either. Either way today is massive and we need to give the boys out support. I just can't help but feel a bit concerned by SC and his team selections of late. It just seems to me he is very much running out of ideas. Today just seems very McInnes like, almost pulling names out of a hat with no real thought process. Hope Stevie boy proves me very wrong though! Also today is a massive opportunity for Fielding. Really hope he takes it. Let's hope everyone remains patient and backs the bloke. COYR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
