Fourth Official : Andy Woolmer
We don't do well when Mr Webb refs us.
Home loss to Reading this season, away loss to Wigan and home draw to Millwall last season.
Didn't we have a stonewall pelanty not given at Wigan ?
Assume Vaulks, Glatzel and Murphy to start
It'll be who's least knackered. Ojo will start, with Glatzel up top for Moore who was out on his feet at the end. No real alternative to Vaulks coming in for Ralls who ran himself ragged. Would like to change Bacuna as well but we have no real alternative without shuffling the 'pack' so to speak.Quote:

Crazy 5 subs is not allowed.
The extra subsitutes at the end of last season was a big bonus for us as we had a big squad. Would help us now as our squad is still bigger than most. I suspect it was rejected because a lot of teams in the EFL just dont have the numbers and would have been relying on youngsters, which perhaps would not have been fair.
Ojo on the right with Wilson in the centre. I expect Glatzel will start up top.
Ralls and Pack will just have to suck it up as there's no decent cover.
I don't buy that the players need resting, i can play 3 games a week in my mid 40's, and tipping over 100kg on the scale, sometimes having supped a bottle of wine at lunch as well. Full professionals with the boffins, science and diets etc can defiantly do it.
Same line up as the other day. 442 narrow wide man with full backs over-lapping (well Bennett)
Well kinda surprised with that lineup. 3 of them won’t make 60 mins if Tuesday was anything to go by
Wurzels playing with 3 up front
Cardiff City XI: Smithies; Bacuna, Morrison, Nelson, Bennett; Pack, Ralls; Ojo, Wilson, Hoilett; Moore.
Subs: Phillips, Bamba, Bagan, Vaulks, Whyte, Murphy, Glatzel.
Bristol City XI (4-3-3): Bentley; Vyner, Kalas, Hunt, Da Silva; O'Dowda, Nagy, Paterson; Martin, Semenyo, Wells.
Subs: O'Leary, Moore, Edwards, Towler, Rowe, Brunt, Massengo.
Interesting stat - tonight is our 4,500th game within the English football pyramid (so league, playoffs and cups).
Is that including our Southern League pre 1920 seasons? Interesting stat:thumbup:Quote:

Could see that coming a mile away, Bennett left with 2 on 1
What The Actual F**k was that defending all about??
Looked sloppy by Bennett giving the ball to them under little pressure.
All starts with Bennett!!!
Bennett caused the priblem in the first placeQuote:
