Bristol City teams

[Jock's Hill]

I have noticed that Bristol City have not had Danny Simpson, Andy King or Matty James in their squads for sometime now. Are they all injured in unison with our defence? Is anyone in the know?

[Jonaldinho]

King has had surgery on his hamstring, James has a foot problem (dunno what), no idea about Simpson.

Not sure how true this is, but I've heard they don't like Pearson's new training regime which includes crossing the Avon using the Clifton Bridge as Monkey bars...

This is correct. 

 

Oh and Simpson has barely featured as he's really really shit now.

They are injured, but Dave Reenie keeps everyone for doesn’t he?   
 

 

Sorry I know we have a terrible injury record at the mo, but rose tinted specs are used to prove points. 
 

At the end of the season where we were in the champions league we were missing players too.

As long as he's asked to do anything other than cover the area between 6 yard box and touch line on the right side of the pitch, he starts to look a bit limited

I would imagine their facilities aren't as good as ours though.

I think that Kingy is only on a 1-year contract so will most probably looking for a new club in the summer. I don't think our quartet have been much use to them. 

[Blue-fox]

Saw king was captain the other week. Think he’ll get a new deal

[Marshall Cockney Fox]

I live in Bath and have kept a close eye on City. I think King & James are both injured. However the latter has been of much more use to Bristol this year. Simpson disappeared entirely after the first month of the season.

King is 33, Simpson is 35, and we all know about the injury problems that have plagued Matty James’s career.

Glad he was that limited enough to help us win the premier league though.

He did exactly what we needed, covered that area like a god and freed up Riyad to do the business up the other end.

Was chatting to a Bristol City fan in Birmingham on Sunday, they rate James but Simpson has been dogshit.

It was a bit tongue in cheek my point about rennie.

[Rob Clarke]

I live near Bristol in North Somerset and know a few Bristol City fans. They rate James, currently injured,  but King and Simpson have been a disappointment, although King did impress initially. Pearson is selecting quite a few very promising youngsters and I think the 3 foxes exiles have perhaps helped behind the scenes with their development.

Why is this topic on the Leicester City Forum page when there are other, more appropriate places i.e. General Football, Players who used to play for us or even Championship 2021/22?

[Sharpe's Fox]

Hope Big Nige is doing ok and well. My favourite manager ever. I've never had such a connection with the club than when he was here. O captain my captain

Is that his FIFA rating?

Because Big Nige is bigger than all of them.

Same still applies. He's no longer here or hadn't you realised?

C'mon, he's moved on and so have most of us.
