Not the best record under this ref BUT, and it’s a big BUT, he reffed the Wolves City game earlier in the season.

Fecking hell Warnock must be desperate P Pilks starting and Healey on bench after an hours football.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v HULL CITY. Match thread
Healey on bench you can understand... give him a few minutes possibly, get real match experience. Bogle is carrying a knock isn't he?
Pilkington up front though... eh... got to be due to a lack of fit bodies. That's the only possible reason I can think of. Must have been tempting to have played Paterson there though.

Perhaps we are desperate.
Who could have dreamed this amount of knocks?
Or perhaps he is being canny. He's done this managing stuff before ;)

You might want to put a bet on him missing several one on ones to cover yourself.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v HULL CITY. Match thread
Let’s hope Pilks puts on a show for potential buyers in the coming transfer window.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v HULL CITY. Match thread
Gotta turn pressure into goals, very pretty around the 18 yd box but toothless inside it. Rhys for Pilks?

Hes a class above but he is so out of shape. He needs to sort himself out or he'll be back in league 1.

Shockingly unfit, he's looking knackered every time he moves. Shame, because on the ball he is really good, and can unlock defences.
But, back to the original point - shockingly and unforgivably unfit.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v HULL CITY. Match thread
Tomlin was quality. Not that unfit, just lacking in game time. What a result though.

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to Sol Bamba

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 1 - 0 HULL CITY. Match thread
Top quality 3 points :ayatollah: a very tough game, wurzells putting the pressure on earlier in the day, squad ravished with injury, a clearly unfit Tomlin getting 80 mins excellent result.
