Bristol City and Leicester City meet at Ashton Gate on Saturday with the two sides experiencing contrasting Championship campaigns.
The Robins are currently struggling at the foot of the table, while Nigel Pearson has guided his team to fifth, five points off an automatic promotion spot. The Foxes will be looking for their third win on the spin after victories over Burnley and Huddersfield Town. A win for Derek McInnes's men could see them out of the relegation zone depending on how Peterborough United get on against Nottingham Forest. Defeats to Millwall and Blackburn Rovers have followed their victory over Posh on December 29

Enjoy all

Shiny Prediction 1-0 To the reds ​

 

0-2 to the Blues

 

possible line up... Kilkenny?

 

When I wrote this we we're stretched in the midfield. We only had Skuse, Pearson, Reid, Kilkenny to chose from for the 2 CM positions and LM, Now Kelly has signed I expect him to take Killa's place

 

Take his place on the bench

 

Yeah probably

 

1-0 to the Reds? You are dreaming mate

 

How about 2-0?

 

nooo 3-0

 

Yeah just a bloody win would be nice

 

I can see him playing the 3-4-1-2 system again?

 

If he plays them like the Peterborough match with bates McManus and Cunningham might work but if fonts gets in the team i shall scream

 

It wont work against Leicester.

 

Maybe parking the bus might be an idea!

 

Is McManus still with us??

 

Yes, has one more match after today unless we extend the loan

 

He ****s off on the 17th. Don't want him back if im telling the truth. Better out there for half the wages and 5-10 years younger. Give bates till the end of the season, Ship out McManus, Bring in McFadzean and another Young CB, Then to finish it off bring in that Man City kid, Wabalalalalala, Defence should look half decent

 

Injury free!!!!

 

a clean sheet would be awesome
