Bristol City vs Leeds United please log in to view this image 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.

The Whites are unbeaten in their last five trips to Bristol City in league competition, winning the last three (D2). The Robins have conceded as many goals in their last two games (6) as they did in their previous 11. Leeds have drawn their last three matches in league competition; they've not recorded four in a row since April 2005. Shiny Predicts BCFC 1-0 LUFC
It's going to be a tough game with Freeman out but it'll give Robinson and possibly Burns a chance to shine.
We'll probably line up like this Fielding (if fit) Fredericks Ayling Flint Williams Bryan Pack Smith Robinson Kodjia Wilbraham Hamer El-Abd Little Waggy Reid Burns Agard
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.
Going to leave in about an hour, hope this rain dies off! Not sure the south stand will keep me dry being at the front.... COME ON YOU REDS!!!!!
The police are out in force, not a surprise given some of the antics before in this fixture Sent from my D6603 using Tapatalk
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. Sent from my D6603 using Tapatalk
Bloody hell your so poor......7 shots on target compared to leeds's 3 and they are cruising 2-0.......you dont want to be playing catch up or you will do a wigan and qpr and go straight back down........cotts not good enough by the look of it....
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
