    Bristol City vs Leeds United
    Ashton Gate Stadium
    Kick Off: 19:45
    August 19th 2015

    It hasn't been the best of starts for Steve Cotterill's Bristol City. Numerous transfers missed, players turning down the move and bigger clubs pinching targets, along with 3 defeats from 3, a small number of fans are starting to have doubts about the season before it's really even started. They now take on Leeds, a team they haven't had much luck against in recent times, in hope for their first points of the season. It's not all doom and gloom though, as of yesterday the club had a rumoured £9,000,000 bid accepted for Brentford striker Andre Gray and talks are currently ongoing.

    It's going to be a tough game with Freeman out but it'll give Robinson and possibly Burns a chance to shine.

    I agree with Shiny's outfield.
    I think Cotterill will give Hamer a few games and then decide between the 2 keepers.

    ps. I thought Chris Wood was terrible for us, so he's bound to score.

    No other realistic options to what Shiny has put. Even in Gray is on board by then he won't be ready, so unlikely to see him until Saturday if he signs.

    A 1-1 draw tonight for me.

    We've been in worse situations before and let's hope we can climb up the table soon but I don't think tonight's game will get us a European spot. A draw for me sadly.

    Enjoy the game and I will satisfy my Bristol City lust by tuning in my crystal set to see if I can pick something off the airwaves on BCFC Player. What on earth is he talking about - many will say.

    The police are out in force, not a surprise given some of the antics before in this fixture

    If Gray were playing for us it would have been a foregone conclusion

    Shocking from the lineswomen never a penalty and blatant dive. Should have told the ref what happened.

    I know for equalities sake it's good to get women involved. However this only works where the women coming in can do the job to a required standard and if they can then fair enough they can do the job. However where you are putting an inadequate women in for equalities sake you are only asking for a bad desicion.

    So how does 7 shots on target vs 3 equate to cotts not good enough muppet ? Our finishing maybe not good enough that's not the same as the manager
