AD (after Daniel) - BC Match thread 11:25 - Dec 30 with 29594 views | Myke | Thought I would throw in a religious connotation for the time of year that's in it, although hoping we won't need a miracle. For me, I think the biggest thing is getting back on track. Quite ironic that we never looked liked scoring in the last two games (even with a penalty) after scoring for 31 in a row. So first thing is not to lose tonight, in order to avoid any hint of losing sequence and the second is to score, as that quickly becomes an 'important' stat also. I think we need four points from the next two, just to steady the ship a little. I don't really mind which way around, although can see Birmingham being a nil, niller, so going for a 2-1 win here, with Dykes scoring at least once. |  | | |  |

AD (after Daniel) - BC Match thread on 14:49 - Dec 30 with 5366 views | PinnerPaul | Interesting listening to Nigel Pearson preview the game. He states that (as per EFL regs) they have to test on the day of the game - hence some of the (very) late postponements we have seen. He doesn't agree with that btw, thinks last test should be day before the game to save fans and clubs travelling unnecessarily. |  | |  |

They've scrapped that rule as of today apparently to avoid just that. Makes sense, not fair on fans |  |

OK, excellent, thanks for the update, don't know when he recorded the interview obviously. |  | |  |
AD (after Daniel) - BC Match thread on 15:46 - Dec 30 with 5252 views | Dorse | The forecast, sponsored by Blenkinsop's Original Offensive Fridge Magnets, shows urine temperatures approaching 100 degrees in the Bristol area as a large gob bumming front moves in from West London, leaving chapped anii (fcuk off, it is a word) for locals, up to but not including Konk, who doesn't count. 2-1 Rangers. The ghost of Dom Ball will confusingly haunt the dressing rooms of both teams, rattling tinsel chains and moaning in the key of D minor. |  |

AD (after Daniel) - BC Match thread on 17:47 - Dec 30 with 5008 views | aston_hoop | 2 more bloody hours to kick off, had my booster this morning and not sure I'll manage to stay awake at this rate. To take my mind off that, what do we think? Surely Adomah comes in for Kakay, Amos in for Johansen if he cant fit in another 90? Thomas or Gray for Chair if he doesn't make it? Austin for Dykes? |  |

AD (after Daniel) - BC Match thread on 17:56 - Dec 30 with 4971 views | WatfordR | Occurred to me when thinking about Chair being away for AFCON. Not sure there’s a need to play 3421. Might be an opportunity to play 352, Willock up with a striker, and three CMs and two WBs. |  | |  |

Yes via the club website for a tenner |  | |  |

I want revenge for that. I'm happy with terrible football and a 90th minute winner. "iM jUsT hApPy tO bE hErE" |  | |  |

Yeah but…Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane, I can see the red Red Robin’s going down in flames. Rangers 2 - 0. [Post edited 30 Dec 2021 18:33]

AD (after Daniel) - BC Match thread on 19:03 - Dec 30 with 4525 views | kensalriser | Andre free zone tonight. Definite all-out Must Win game if we're to stop the rot and reclaim a top 6 place. No prediction, this feels like one of those anything could happen Championship fixtures. |  |

AD (after Daniel) - BC Match thread on 19:09 - Dec 30 with 4457 views | Hooparoo | Very light bench. Strange to have no defenders but I suppose Ball could play there if needed. I think the midfield trio of Amos, Field and Stef could be interesting. |  |

AD (after Daniel) - BC Match thread on 19:17 - Dec 30 with 4369 views | aston_hoop | I know Stef-Jo is the one listed highest on the squad list, but we've tried Amos as a pressing 10 before havent we? |  |

Possibly. or Jo-Jo to attacking midfield? or Amos back to his previous role as a pressing attacking midfielder? |  |
|  |
AD (after Daniel) - BC Match thread on 19:17 - Dec 30 with 4361 views | dmm | No reason why Amos can't play in Chair's position |  | |  |
