How crucial is it now that we take the points from our game in hand? It will be almost certain that if we are to be compete for the 2nd automatic promotion spot we will need to begin putting away teams like Bolton and Millwall. At least Bolton have been deprived of their main striking threat thanks to some £5 million transfer meddling on deadline day. His replacement - Sammy Ameobi! The referees controversial decision making has benefited some at least - a big CS for 2 time Champion @BluefromBridgend means that surprise leader @bluescull has the small lead he had built up removed. At the other end of the table @Jay-RedeCCFC had looked dead and buried but 4 points last night at least pull hi within touching distance of escape. Last years runner up @william5551 had been sliding towards the danger but pulls himself back into the mid table. In the 2nd tier the solitary point for @Masky sees him back into that last playoff spot
Masky predicts a spiffing 3-0 result against these trotter bods, with Hoilett taking his tally up! Can’t imagine for one minute Le Fonda scoring against his old pals, pals!
City 3 - 1 Bolton please mate. *Madine looking unlikely, so I'll change my scorer to Joe Ralls please mate*
Home game against a club with a number of ex-city players - Andy Taylor, Sammy Ameobi, Le Fondre, Noonie, although Noonie is either injured or out of favour at present. Any of those playing will be keen to do well against us and Ameobi and Le Fondre have been recent scorers. Conversely Madine will want to shine for us. 2.1 to us with Madine to score his first for us. Will he celebrate? Sheepy, if Madine doesn't play due to his broken hooter, please take Zohore as a scorer. Thanks.
Everything I have read tell me there will be goals. Only one draw in the last 20 meetings. Surely this is a home win. Bluebirds 3-1 Bolton, should he play, Zohore to break his barren run otherwise Ralls to net.
I think we can keep a clean sheet as well. Not sure how many we'll get but the way Hoilett and Patto are playing it could be a shedfull. I'm erring on the side of caution and going for City 5-0......... Maybe Ralls will get one of them - he'll do for me.
