How on earth has Peter Whittingham scored 21 goals this season? :eek:

There was nothing to him when he played for Villa .... a reasonable player but there was no sign he would turn into a goal machine. What position is he playing in for Cardiff?

Usually on the wing, but due to an injury crisis he's pretty much played all over recently.

And yes he has been class this season. :)
 
3-1 City. :cool:

Don't have a clue yet what the game was like but well done boys. Tough run of games coming up that are going to be crucial, lets hope we can keep winning.
 
That'll do very nicely.

Despite our dodgy run of form, we're still - somehow! - looking good for the pay offs.

4 Leicester p37 GD 11 61 points
5 Swansea p38 GD 6 61
6 Cardiff p37 GD 16 58
7 Sheff Utd p38 GD 3 53

The game was nerve wracking to say the least. After city banging in an early goal Watford dominated the rest of the first half - they were unlucky to not get a goal, possibly two. Second half started pretty much the same and we looked very tired, but once the second goal went in we started to get up a head of steam.

Their goal was very much against the run of play.

Interestingly, Bily the Badge was doing a roaring trade in Malaysian flags and Riverside FC scarfs
 
Just logged on to check the score. I was there, but somehoe managed to collpase at half time and missed the rest of the game. I do seem to rceall a cheer as they wheled me thru behind the scenes somewhere.

I'm OK now, I think, but giving Mrs 27 grief. I' a crap patient!!
 
Thanks for all the Pms folks. I'm fine Just passed out in the bogs at half time, lack of a lot of thing slike sleep and decent food I guess. Was saying in work on friday that I could feel my body was ready for my holiday in 4 weeks time, guess it couldn't wait that long.
 
Thanks again for everyone's concern

Was just wondering would everybody here be up for a few pints after the last home game of the season against Sheff Wednesday on 24th April? I promise to try and saty conscious long eneough to meet you all!

I was looking for you after the game--decided to go at the last minute. Hope you're OK.

I thought City were excellent, took care of business without much effort from what I saw.

Wasn't watching the same game as I.

City were on top till the first goal.

Watford then kind of went with only 3 guys in defence most of the time pushing forward. It paid off with a goal which wasn't given (it looked like a goal where we were sitting but Marshal threw his body on it to try and block it from the officials' view and got away with it).

The ref I think realised his mistake and started giving Watford every decision. This did not endear him to the crowd who started to sing "Not fit to referee" etc. plus sarcastic applause when he finally gives us a decision.

The half ends 1-0 to my relief.

2nd half starts.

One linesman has obviously decided to start making up for the fact the ref is giving us nothing and starts to call lots of things. The play is mainly aerial. Header, header, header, header, hoof up field, header, header, header. Watford are beating us in the air and its only there lack of finish that is denying them goals.

Whits scores a lovely head and that takes some of the sting out of Watford's play.

Then Burke's screaming run is an individual play of beauty. To be fair he did try and be a team play and pass it to McCormack (who did run with him) but had to bury it himself after the defender's block.

That took all the sting out of Watford's play for the final ten minutes.
The extra time goal therefore doesn't really make that much sense coming as it did after they'd pretty much given up. I guess they'd been trying too hard all match.

If remove the goals I'd say Cardiff only really bossed Watford for the first 15 minutes and the last 10. But luckily our finishing was superb for once.

Sounds like a good idea, i will definitely be there. Too far off to make definite plans, but.........
 
See we could well lose our record for best end of season fuckuppery!!

Leeds 0-2 Millwall.

Leeds were 8 points clear at the top on New Years day, now they are 8 points behind and look like they could slip into the paly-off zone!
 
3 weeks ago we were in danger of losing our club, were sliding out of contention for a play-off place,couldn't win an argument and the Jacks were flying high. Oh how times change!!

Don't ya just love Blackpool for giving us so much enjoyment tonight!! Thank you!
 
The God of football dies a little each time Sheff United take to the pitch.

We murdered the thugs 1-1

Still, 5 points clear with a game in hand.

Bothroyd banned for next two games but back for the jacks.

Ledley almost repaired.

Its looking good.

Just a half a Palace team to play on Saturday.

:cool:
 
If we HAD to lose Jay then now was the best time to be honest. Have him nice and rested for the Jacks and protected from those other thugs at Palace.

The ref won that game for them. I mean how can you be last man and clothesline someone and still be on the pitch.

How can Jay be pushed with both hands from behind and get done for diving?!

How Sheffield still had 11 men on the pitch at the end has me amazed. They only had one player who was any good. No 06 Nosworthy
 
Last season against the Blades at home I witnessed the worst refereeing performance of my life. Today I saw a worse one, that ref bottled every major decision. Sheff Utd should not have had 9 players on the field by half time let alone 11. From the first whistle they held, pushed, lunged at and assaulted the Cardiff danger men. McCormack took a smack to the jaw that I could hear in the back row, I fully expected him to get up spitting teeth out. What Bothroyd has to do to get a free kick I really dont know. On one occasion in second half Ross runs into box and the guy pulls him back by the shirt, it was so blatant his shirt was six sizes too big for him after it had been stretched so much, ref just waves him away. The spirit of Warnock is alive and well, he would have been proud of these thugs tonight, and all we have to look forward to is another outfit of thugs on saturday.

On a brighter note some excellent performances tonite. Jay came out the trap like I never seen him before, full of running and took his goal well, will miss Palace and Leicester tho after his booking. Burke was just Burke. Whitts was everywhere. Darcy grows in stature every game, but my MoM would be Gabor. He is taking his chance in the team well and I can't see Hudson or Gerard getting back in the team if we continue to play like this. All of a sudden things are rosy in the Cardiff garden, players coming back from injury and all of a sudden we have selection problems of the right sort.
 
And on the bench tonight,

a certain Mr.

Kelvin Etuhu.

Saviour it cos

he just might have a major say in us making the play offs
 
@1927

Yeah Jay was MoM of the first half. Faded a bit second half but boy he had a lot shit grinding him down and he did well to keep his cool.

Darcy does indeed keep getting better.

In comparison, Capaldi worried me at times but not as much as Kenedy has.
 
Totally off topic, but Ickle 27 started toddler playgroup this week and the woman in charge is Ann Dwyer, wife of the legend!
 
What a fucking idiot. But 'racist'?

A Cardiff City fan who attacked a fellow Bluebirds supporter in the mistaken belief he was English has been given a suspended prison sentence.

Probation officer Allan Robertson, 48, of Pontypridd, throttled Michael Bitti then punched him in the head.

He wrongly believed Mr Bitti, 42, was a rival Arsenal fan and started a row with him in a London pub toilet.

Robertson was sentenced to nine months, suspended for two years, at Blackfriars Crown Court.

He was also given a 12-month supervision order and banned from football matches for three years.

The married father-of-three had been found guilty of racially aggravated assault at a previous hearing.

We've often seen the authorities state that english people having a go at the Welsh is not racism as Wales is a country not a race.

Funny how when it suits them all of a sudden it is a racial issue.

Someone in my office knows his wife. Says he has been given community service to do. No mention of that in the news. Just the suspended sentence :confused:
