With a positive start to the season on the pitch and the increased media attention off the pitch, I
guess we were a plum tie for most of the sides in the draw for round 2 of the Carling Cup.
Well, with the past two seasons in mind a trip away at Ashton Gate to Bristol City throws up the
perennial description 'banana skin'.
Certainly we will be ripe for the taking as far as they are concerned and they are in good shape
following promotion from League 1 last season.
Having been dumped out of the competition at an early stage far too many times in recent years, I
was a little concerned when news of wholesale changes were mentioned but fortunately it appears as
though only those fringe players such as Logan and Onouha, who have waited for a chance this season
will step in tonight. I'm also hopeful that Bianchi will get a full ninety minutes as well this
evening.
To quote Sven as he infamously said during his time as England manager following a game; 'First
half good, second half not so good'.
I was immediately concerned that the wholesale changes I believed would not happen, did actually
occur and it gave the side an obvious weaker look and one which Bristol City must have fancied
their chances of beating.
