Hehe! Megalolz!

 

[gaijingirl]

oh dear...

Peterborough 0 Cardiff 3 after half an hour. Your football team is bizarre.

edit: 0-4 after forty minutes.

Shocking. Absolutely shocking.

No doubt the idiots over on ccmb will be calling for DJ's head after this, but I would like just one of them to explain to me what DJ could have done about that. I would withold the pay of the useless cunts for a week. This has pissed me off far more than boxing day!

How about bolstering the midfield in the second half, when it was clear (from the radio commentary) that we were being overrun?!

This result could be as damaging as the 6-0 reverse at Preston last year, and yes, as useless as the spineless jellyfish on the pitch were, Jones (the manager) is culpable. Sack him now, before promotion disappears down the u-bend.

but I would like just one of them to explain to me what DJ could have done about that.

DJ could have employed proper strategic adjustments.

Taking McNaughton Off at half time before we saw how the second half was going to go was a bit presumptuous. Especially as we all know Cardiff isn't great at second halves (why oh why do we play so deep, if DJ isn't coaching it out of them then he ain't doing his job).

Having noticed that Posh made 2 half time subs he could have analysed what was going on and then made changes. Them going 3 in the middle creamed us and we made no changes to deal with it.

I would have suggested McCormack off after their second goal and Gypes in front of the back four. Etuhu for Rae to freshen the midfield. Especially as Rae was worse than useless.

Then later Quinn for McNaughton if we really did need to rest him.

First time I've stood on a terrace for 15 years and that happens. It was soo embarrassing to have given their fans so much stick and then our team goes and allows them to throw it all right back in our faces. Not pleased at all.

Some interesting and unusually forthright words from Jones here.

I wonder what the instructions that were not listened to were, i somehow doubt it was to change formation.

 

[Clint Iguana]

Here we go again, toons 'interested' in Chopra

I can never tell if the papers just make these stories up, there never seems to be any substance behind them and in this case.....

“It’s news to me,” said Hughton. “I’m not aware of anything there.”

Why would Newcastle want an out of form striker?

Why would Newcastle want an out of form striker?

They don't always stay out of form when they move to a new club.

Newcastle might consider themselves better able to create scoring chances for him than Cardiff are.

Considering that all we do is cross the ball into the box most of the time they may have a point. Chopra is the sort of player that needs balls played to him low and not up in the air all the time.

me thinx it is a case of.... chopra still has house in newcastle + mrs chopra still in toon town 'working on her website' + transfer window opening + western mail has nothing to write about today = CHOPRA GOING TO NEWCASTLE!

 

[Gromit]

western mail has nothing to write about today = CHOPRA GOING TO NEWCASTLE!

Yeah more the case tbh.

Reverse engineered news.

Pick a headline that will sell papers.
Use any old assusumptions you can to justify headline.
Publish.

Any truth in DJ to Bolton?

 

[badlands]

Any truth in DJ to Bolton?

Not unless Bolton shell out a fortune in comp. And he'd have to up sticks from his massive house in the Vale.

I'd have thought Bolton would go for Bilic or someone of that ilk.

Also this made me chuckle, Bolton sack their manager for giving up a 2 goal lead and are interested in a manager who gave up a 4 goal lead.

Peterborough shirts from the game on Monday up for auction. Me thinks we might have inadvertantly increased their collectability

 

[Onket]

'might'

It hasn't been much fun being a Cardiff fan over the festive period. I was on a near permanent facepalm following the Peterborough second half on my mobile on the train back.

 

[Gromit]

Try being there in the freezing cold. The disgust was so thick you could use it to pave roads.

The show must go on. Getting geared up for a trip to Bristle this weekend now.

First half was very enjoyable, has to be said.

 

[Clint Iguana]

SHOCK... HORROR!! Season ticket offer that closed at 3pm today has been extended to 6th January!

Why am i not surprised at this?

I feel for those that put themselves out to get down there this week because of the 'sale must end 31st december' tactics.

Lets hope the money does actually get spent on players as promissed, not paying off sam/inland revenue/undersoil heating 'r us.

Happy new year lovely people.

Our world is wonderful. A new stadium. A possible takeover.

We are 4th.

The transfer window beckons.

Mark my words, this will be a spectacular year.

Dream it.

The dream is ours.

I like your optimism.

I just checked and despite the shit run we've been having we are still better placed than we were this time last year.FACT. We are closer to those above us, have scored more goals, better gd, won more games etc. I think top six is well within us.

If we're 4-0 up at half-time don't say to your mates really confidently: 'there's no way we can't not win this one!'.

 

[editor]

As Eddie May used to said, "Nothing less than an emphatic win will do today."

 

[rapattaque]

And it's called off.
