    I was today years old when I found out winless Cardiff were shedloads better than us.  Been another chastening defeat and we have done well to keep it to 3 so far.  Could have been 6 or 7.

    Has Carey got the wrong studs on? That's the second time he's slipped in 5 mins.

    What must Knibbs and Carey be thinking when he brings that cart horse on at half time to play in their positions
    At least NJ’s team got three points . He will be happy 
    Do you not wonder as well how shit Knibbs / Carey must be doing in training to be missing out on game time?
    If multiple players 'aren't trying' in training surely that's a management issue and not a personal one?
    Can it not be both? - Why do Knibbs / Carey need to be told by Management how to perform as well?
    Do you need to be told how to do every little task, doing your job?
    We're not playing great, so surely thats enough for them to want to put in the effort, to show they deserve to be out there?

    Jones has previous for bombing players out for seemingly no reason so wouldn't be so quick to blame the players themselves. 
    You mean the likes of Apter / Olaofe who've shown absolutely zero initiative to prove why they never should have been dropped?

    Or Docherty our captain last year that disappeared for weeks and then reappeared with no reasoning behind it. 
    Rankin-Costello for months before turning up and being the best player on the pitch when he did return. 
    Docherty / Costello are two examples of where Jones has dropped a player and the player has responded in the right manner.
    Have you seen that from Carey this season?

    How do you know? How do you know how Carey/Knibbs are responding in comparison to Docherty/Rankin-Costello? 
    Docherty was paid to leave and Rankin-Costello is back to not being in his plans so seemingly if you do 'respond in the right manner' Jones will get rid of you eventually anyway.

    Missing out on Rak Saki  and Holsgrove and instead getting Alli and Ouma is the equivalent of Missing out on a couple of BMW s and getting a couple of Skodas. 
    Nkeng was the backup signing for JRS, to be fair
    Just as bad then.
    He's nowhere near good enough for the present. 
    He wasn't signed for the present
  • This is Leicester Skipp today, absolutely fucking abysmal performance from him.

    That's okay because everyone has said he's for the future 🤭

    As a Skoda owner I find this offensive.

    Cardiff have had 27 shots and 60% possession.

    Nothing like a 12.30kick off to piss on you’re Saturday, fucking shit all round today😤

    I think Cardiff have the highest possession stat in the league, whilst we have the 2nd lowest. 

    So just hope we make the most of it when we do have the ball. 
    Total fail in that regard. Though we deserve nothing, if the players had made the right decision at the right time, we might have got a point out of this.

    Not sure Ouma can come back from this, he’s shocking. 
    Quit it. You're disrespecting a Kenyan international.

    Cardiff hit the ball off Mesik and back off the corner flag for a corner.
  • Last few mins should be all us - piling in to them to try and get back into it.

    Totally given up

    On a positive note, we can look forward to 2 weekends with no Charlton now

    How do any of us know anything... Whats the point of this Forum even existing with that attitude?
    Sorry thats a pathetic response

    Once Wilder walks or gets sacked at Sheffield United maybe we can bring him in

    We shouldn’t be playing with wingers if we don’t have anyone suitable on the right

    Pains me to say it but we will comfortably be in and around the relegation places again. Just not enough quality to turn losses into draws and draws into wins.
    Unfortunately, I don’t even see the fight/spirit that we had last season! 

    The football is poor, but we had a togetherness and a grit to us that helped us drag ourselves away- we look 5x weaker this season (derby and West Ham aside)

    Well one positive from this is that we're finishing this game with 3 fit left backs all on the pitch, a far cry from last season

    I know we've picked up a decent amount of points already but my god we're shit, very lucky we managed to get those early points otherwise we'd be right in it now, although it doesn't feel like it'll be long until we're down there

    Collision between Salech, Ouma and Skipp as the corner came in, and the Cardiff man's down in the box having treatment.
  • Thank fuck I sent the missus out to get beers before the booze shop closed today.

    Good to get a few weeks where we don’t need to watch Charlton. We’ve been completely mullered here. Only positive is Edward’s is back otherwise nothing. Need a massive reset in the international break
