Blackpool 0 Bristol City 0 did you know it has been 43 games since our last 0-0. at least I didn't have to fly back to the island with a plane load of Blackpool supporters as per last season- all whooping it up at their 5-0 demolition of the not so magic robins- the only consolation was in the manner of the defeat, that was to be Keith Millen's swansong... reminiscent of this season in the 4-0 defeat v Leicester which sealed the fate of Derek McInnes.... Back to today and the improvement under Sean O'Driscoll's regime continues not dramatically and although we have dropped back to 24th, there is perceptible collective team spirit and organisation which augers well enough to make me feel we can escape relegation- it will be close but I'm confident we can do it. 7 of us predicted a draw (1 point) but no-one went for 0-0..... so although there is no great change in the league table here goes.. ........................prev..pts ...BC v Bnsly.....scorer......gate......prev total......B'pool v BC....total redmaid.............144................0.......... ....5.............1.........150.................0..............150 algenon.............135.................1......... ....10............0.........146.................0..............146 RedorDead.........132.................1........... ...5.............2........140.................0...............140 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Massive.............128................1.......... .....10...........0.........139.................0..............139 Robin Unreliant...133.................0..............0.. ...........3.........136................1..............137 manxrobin..........124................1........... ....0............5.........130.................1..............131 Red robin...........123.................1............. .5.............0.........129................0...............129 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- wiz....................105................1....... .......10............4.........120................0..............120 Shiny.................104................1........ ......10............2.........117................0..............117 BCFC Red.............81.................1.............. 10...........0...........92................1..............93 Supcon................85................1......... ......5............0............91................1..............92 johngalley............79.................1....... ......10..........0............90.................................90 brooksyboy...........84................1.......... .....5...........0............90................0..............90 Ashton matt..........87.................................. ..... ...................87................................87 smhbcfc...............82.................0........ .......5...........0...........87................0..............87 premorbust..........76.................0.......... ....0............0...........76.................1..............77 tiger-emyrs-wolf...55.................1..............15....... .....0..........71................0..............71 Caldicot Cider Red.59.................0...............5.......... ..0...........64...............................64 ciderup................50......................... .................................50.................................50 Bright Red Rickste..47....................................... ...................47................0..............47 angelic..................33...............1...... ........10...........0..........44.................1..............45 banksy.................36......................... ................................36.................................36 Lan Lodger............34.............................. ............................34................................34 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- cidered abroad........7.................0..............0.. ...........0..........7 .................1.............8 hawkmoonfy...........8.......................... .................................8................................8 Alandicks................1........................ ...................................1................................1 Redmaid though not scoring this week remains top of the heap....and angelic's remarkable proclivity for predicting the result 3 times in the last 4 matches is scarcely recompensed in his league position.... ********************************* so to Brighton Bristol City v Brighton Tuesday March 5th k.o. 19.45 ***1 point for guessing the result - Bristol City win / draw / Brighton win ***10 points for predicting the exact result - 1-0 3-3, 2-3 ***5 points for nominating each Bristol City scorer ***5 points for closest guess for the gate; 4 points for 2nd; 3 for 3rd; 2 for 4th and 1 for 5th ***15 points for guessing within 50 of the actual attendance so is your glass half-full or half empty- do you see Bristol City as the side who are the 3rd highest goal scorers at home, and are one of only two championship sides who have conceded more than 2 goals away only once this season (3-2 v Bolton) or do you see Bristol City as the side who have the worst away record in the Championship and have conceded the most goals at home...
