    Bristol City predicted team vs Nottingham Forest: Nigel Pearson likely to make two changes
    The Robins head to The Forest Ground looking to end a run of 10 away games without defeat
    https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/bristol-city-predicted-team-pearson-6720997
    Bristol City 4-1-2-1-2: Dan Bentley, Jay Dasilva, Tomas Kalas, Timm Klose, Cam Pring, Joe Williams, Alex Scott, Han-Noah Massengo, Andi Weimann, Antoine Semenyo, Chris Martin
    Bristol City predicted starting XI against Nottingham Forest - Return needed for defensive enforcer

    Nigel Pearson’s got a limited Bristol City squad to choose from but they are still capable of beating Nottingham Forest

    Won’t be listening to this game, in Cardiff for England v Wales rugby. So will only be able to follow this one n social media. Just hoping for a low scoring game. As this could be another Fulham in my opinion.

    Can’t see us getting anything out of this I’m afraid, damage limitation, and concede as few as possible is best we can expect imo

    2 goals up before 80 minutes and we might just snatch a draw…..!

    thats a bit tight considering.. I WOULD say winning 3-0 with 10 mins to go including ET we might hold on FOR A DRAW! We need to score 3 goals in first 20 mins then another one just after half time ...... but keep on attacking ..do a England Ladies world cup, get ball to their corner posts and keep 3 players on halfway line

    Yep, Swansea didn’t like him as he wasn’t playing the Swansea way. But he’s turned the **** show around at Florist since he went there.

    Early days but Bentley has saved us from going down 0-2 and we look on the back foot right away.

    They score after cutting through us like a knife in butter. 1-0 Forest and Bentley was confused by a deflection?

    After a poor start we came back into the game during the middle part of the half before giving up the inevitable goal. Dan Bentley has made brilliant saves to keep us in the game and without his heroics we could be behind 4-0 or 5-0. This is about par for us and I don't see enough yet to believe we can overcome a strong team who know what they are doing across the field. We need to up our game especially in the ball winning department and our passing out of defence is quite poor but some of our players are running their socks off without that final decisive pass to put pressure on their back line.

    More statues have cost us a second goal which Bentley had no chance. Yet again we give up sloppy goals each side of the half-time whistle because our attention is badly lacking on most fronts. I fail to see how any of this continual nonsense can be regarded as progress on any level.

    Martin is off and Wells is on. Progress???

    Pring taken off at the half and seeing as he was getting roasted by George I am not surprised.

    A shocker by Kalas forced Bentley to save us again and we are looking like we may concede another soon. Williams was fast asleep on this one.
