Robins on the Wire

With the final international break of the season upon us, Dan and Jack are back to dissect what has been a rather disappointing few weeks at Bristol City. The pair discuss the Robins' Ashton Gate defeat to West Brom, the scenes of frustration in the stands and Gerhard Struber's comments around the belief of some of those in his squad. On top of that, there is time to debate the impact of the injury situation in BS3 and the upcoming appointment of a new sporting director. Just how important is it that City get this one right? With speculation mounting around Ross McCrorie's future as well, there is debate to be had about the future of some key players.Robins on the Wire is a Bristol Live podcast.

Having spent last week's episode previewing a trip to Port Vale that never happened, Dan and Jack are back to reflect on some more Bristol City action. They discuss the Robins' dramatic come-from-behind draw with Wrexham at Ashton Gate and debate whether or not the Reds should have had one - if not more - penalty calls go their way.With the Robins' fixture schedule incredibly congested, there is no rest for the wicked as Gerhard Struber's side travel to Swansea City this weekend. Win, and City could well find themselves in the play-off places. Lose, and the Reds may lose ground on the chasing pack. How will Struber set up his side and can City get one over their closest thing to a local rival, this term?Robins on the Wire is a Bristol Live podcast.

Somehow, we’ve hit another international break. Despite October’s interval only feeling like a matter of days ago, Bristol City are once again heading towards a weekend with no Championship football, having entered the break with an impressive point away to Watford.
