Well, whatever scoring we get, tonight & the rest of the season, probably will be one or the other (or both) involved. 

Sans Dacky & Arma, if they can’t score now, it’s time to move on without either of them (BaG).

I wonder if Mercer has a triple header on Bristol City to win 3 games away from home all 3-0.

It's our only hope!

Pearson (oddball that he is) knows how to organise a team, Mowbray doesn’t. The malaise continues. 0-1 

[Gone to seed]

Really difficult to call this one.. not because of a lack of form data or recent experience, but because to be honest I just can't be arsed. The result doesn't matter to us (it makes not one iota of difference to the Gurning One's tenure and we can't really contemplate relegation given the footballing turds floating below us in the Championship sewer-end). For the hard pressed fans of our once proud club the game is nothing more than a dead rubber, a training exercise, a side show, an irrelevance, a waste of an evening probably much better spent watching the lawn dry out.,

How low can we go?

Let's see...

Mowbray has already called Bristol "old fashioned counter attacking team"

not sure what's old fashioned about it mind you.

He's expecting us to have more possession. Lets see if Mowbray's new progressive style can beat the old fashioned one.

0-1 for me. It appears to be what we do.

TM’s idea of more passion is to play without our best attacking players, ha ha. 

At the risk of appearing less sane than usual, I will say, 2-1. Elliott & Gally, with assists by Dolan & Elliott.

COYB!

This isnt having a go at you but more the general situation as there is little in the way of alternatives but what a depressing team.

There is absolutely no goal threat in that team at all. Dolan is not a striker, that experiment needs to be stopped.

Also, more importantly at a stage whereby any importance in the season has long gone, Nyambe, Harwood-Bellis, Douglas, Trybull, Elliott and Rothwell are all out of contract at the end of the season. The state of the squad going forward is a major concern.

This has 1-1 or 1-0 Bristol City all over it. After Norwich it’ll then be 5 or 6 points from 12 games. Long live the Mowbray reign.

Yes, both.  Obviously iFollow if you want HD and replays, 'free' if you've bought your ST, £10 otherwise. Red button if you don't mind SD and no replays and don't want to pay your hard earned tenner to watch another defeat.

My favourite website, by the way, for checking out literally any football available on the box on all major platforms:

Cracking recommendation. Thanks.

It’s a sad state, indeed. BC sit 4 pts above us, so Rovers with a win would still be no higher than 13th. 

Our Ewood form stinks, they are better on the road than we are at home. Pearson has injected some positivity into that team. I will stay with my 2-1 prediction, but I feel less enthused about it by the minute. 

[1864roverite]

If the players have anything about them then what happened to BD is sufficient to motivate them however tombola Tony will simply ruin it 0-2

[davulsukur]

Just seen that we've only won once at home in 2021 so far.

Pretty poor that.

[davulsukur]

6! Changes

We’ve only won one in ten so I don’t know why people are surprised!

6 changes tonight. The tombola is back out big time.

I think Grot BAG would have a better chance of blossoming than those two (even in her current state).

[dingles staying down 4ever]

Back to 4-3-3

[simongarnerisgod]

mass changes,what a surprise,it`s now getting to the stage where id`e pay off a 0-5 drubbing if it meant getting rid of the prehistoric ****

[Banzai]

It is really difficult to be up for this mid table mediocrity game.

1-1 with Bristol giving slightly more of a rat's ass about the game than us.

[SoldierMo]

So drop in form buckley and dolan yes well done genius then expects them to keep their form up..same happended to Rothwell

he does wonders for a young lads confidence does our tone😒

[Feed the Yak]

What Buckley and Dolan have done to deserve to be dropped is beyond me. Must be so disheartening and must impact on development when they are unable to get a run of games. Such a shame.
