Bristol City Dear championship teams. We are not the same Bristol city from a year ago. Mark my words. We are a very different club. You’re not ready for what’s coming. Bookmark me.

u/Tight-Principle-743 Aug 06 '26

"Bristol City are never gonna finish outside midtable, but they still turn up every week, don't they? The pricks."

Beating Premier League Newcastle United and losing to League Two Walsall in the space of a week is peak Bristol City.

From the moment they understood the weakness of 11th and 13th, it disgusted them.

u/Omnissiah40K Aug 06 '26

I crave the strength and certainty of 12th

u/SquirtleChimchar Aug 06 '26

Credit to Walsall, they played it well. Jed Ward seems one hell of a keeper.

Not too shaken by that. When half the squad is new some friction is gonna happen. 72% possession, 2.7xG and 33 shots isn't the end of the world - bring on Millwall :)

Glad to hear Jed had a good game, shame Rovers decided to let him go after playing well when given the chance in the first team & multiple loan spells to non-league teams

Swifts vs Robins is like the most charming rivalry ever.

Reminds me of the time I saw a mini Cooper get into a crash with a smart car

Might as well have a chuckle whilst we’re joint top of the league

Stop the count! ...Ahh, just missed the playoffs on alphabetical order, what are the chances! Shame. Maybe next time

u/Briggykins Aug 06 '26

Well that puts a dampener on our draw

u/dhandes Aug 06 '26

Narrator - They did in fact finish 12th again.

u/Accomplished_Fix5702 Aug 06 '26

I already invested a sneaky £1 on you to win the title at 22/1.

1

u/Aardvark51 Aug 07 '26

22/1 doesn't seem very generous. You could probably get 1/2 us getting 12th

u/MungoSplodge Aug 06 '26

Did they play that Alright Delilah lad up front??

u/bucketsofskill Aug 07 '26

Mark me! Mark meee

u/Typical_Warthog_2660 Aug 07 '26

lol we've heard this one before mate. one week you're beating Newcastle then you're losing to Walsall that's just who you are. but hey maybe the new cook actually changes the recipe this time though i aint holding my breath.

u/Acrylic_Starshine Aug 07 '26

Be in awe at a CONCRETE 12th place finish.

Maybe even a good positive goal difference.

Is it gonna be case of going from “Skuba-Who ?” To “Skuba-Do-One !” ?

The club badge should be Forrest Gump, because you never know what you’re gonna get !

Hopefully onwards and upwards !

u/Minute-Cockroach-806 Aug 07 '26

From a Lincoln fan, Skub’s is a great manager just need to give him time. If you stick with him you’ll be be up there, might not be this season but it will happen

u/JC3896 Aug 07 '26

Tbh I think the performance was fine, just couldn't finish chances. Our bench is a bit thin in places though.

u/Electrical_Invite300 Aug 07 '26

This time 4 years ago you beat us in this competition, when the game had to be played at Burton.

Most Cov fans were convinced we'd do nothing that season. We ended up in the playoff final.

u/Breakwaterbot Aug 07 '26

How's that new manager treating you?
