I'm going keep my powder dry and wait until after the Northampton game tomorrow (any of you going as I'll be there?) and see what injury absences are forced on us by this and the internationals this week - the following players will be on country duty - Craig Bellamy, Darcy Blake and Robert Earnshaw are in the Wales squad, while goalkeeper David Marshall and Don Cowie have been called up by Scotland. Aron Gunnarsson (Iceland), Filip Kiss (Slovakia) and Etien Velikonja (Slovenia) are also on international duty. BS - there might be a few prediction changes on Thursday.
Hey guys- thinking back to when City got promoted and had a couple of enthusiastic albeit heavy losses I'll put my neck on the line and say 4-1 to City!! (help) Bellers x 2, whitts, and turner please!!
A nervous home win flor city, tempted to name McNaughton as the only scorer in a 1-0 win....but sanity prevailed. Gunnarson 1-0
F*****g International friendlies I'm ok with Whitts but I'll be sweating on Velikonja getting back in time for Friday (and avoiding injury of course)
Taff, you can change, edit or submit a prediction up until the KO time of the game you are predicting for provided you alert me to it in some form by PM or just commenting again on the thread. It may be wiser this season to keep a closer eye on injuries and suspension this season. Thanks for asking. Yep, this is going to become quite complex as we won't have a full idea of the squad Malky will pick until Thurs at the earliest. Good luck picking your scorers (pray for a injury free international!)
Blue Sheep Sir, off on hols the next couple of weeks Would like to predict the first three games Cardiff 2 Huddersfield 0 whitts and gunner Brighton 1 Cardiff 2 Helgusson and Mutch Bristol 1 Cardiff 3 Helgusson Ralls and Bellars Should give us a nice start to the season Onwards and Upwards Bluuuuubirds
Yikes, I really don't know what to go with. If I'm being honest (and I'd be happy to be wrong) my instinct is that the new rules are over-egging things rather. I like the simplicity of last year's rules; but hey, I'm being a grumpy old nob. The effort that goes into this is fantastic, so... City 3-0 Bellamy, HH, Mason
Hi again Bluesheep. Prompted by Danablu I've remembered I'll be away for these games as well so can I put these predictions in please? Brighton 1-1 Bluebirds (Gunnar) Bristol 0-2 Bluebirds (Bellers and Whitts) Bluebirds 1-0 Wolves (Helgusson) Thanks again
