we needed 22% to win.

And a striker like Vardy.
are you seriously suggesting ricky is not as good as vardy.
Ricky is for life, Vardy is a flash in the pan.
Shame Slade didn't bring in such a striker when he suffered similar possession statistics.
Shame Colin didn't address the striker issue seeing he is suffering less possession than any of our previous managers.
To be fair, he's come in and brought four out of contract players in, two of which have been terrific signings. There can't be that many good out of contract strikers about in October.
If we are going to play the (very little possession ) Leicester way then we need an ace striker. Colin should have made that is number one priority.
Ok, which free agent strikers could he have brought in?
Fair play, you're a clueless cock, to the point that you should really be considering why on earth you put yourself through ridicule every day on here. Warnock became manager after the transfer window closed and we no longer have the loan window. Please give us ideas of which free agent strikers he could have brought in?
Just to shut eric up
With Slade we averaged 49% possession
With Colin we are averaging 41%
We all know that, bar one.
That wasn't the question asked, but nicely avoided.
Last season Cardiff City's possession stats under Slade were ranked 14th. We finished 8th. Above Cardiff in the possession table were Brentford, Wolves, Fulham, MK Dons, Leeds, Reading and Huddersfield. 7 teams that had more possession than us but finished below us in the table. Should they have finished above us?
What is maybe interesting is that Fulham, Reading and Huddersfield had far better possession stats last season than their league position warranted (according to your reckoning). This season they are now top half teams instead of being close to relegation.
On the opposite side, Ipswich, Cardiff, QPR, Birmingham and Preston all had better league finishes than their possession stats warranted (according to your reckoning). This season, all of those, bar Birmingham, are now bottom half teams that are struggling.
If possession is such an important thing, then those teams that had good possession stats last season have reaped the benefit, while those with poor possession stats have had the opposite and seen their sides plummet.
Given all the above, the importance of possession etc, then the rot with Cardiff City was undoubtedly set last season. I wonder who was manager then?

We didn't average 49% possession under Slade for the duration of his management.
The same strikers you expected Slade to bring in.
Sorry, have you had a lobotomy?
Are you really expecting Warnock, with no transfer window or loan window, to be able to bring in the same calibre of striker who could only be out of work as Slade, who had 3 transfer windows in which to operate and at least be able to spend money? Fcking clueless.

It was a couple of points higher but you get my drift.
It wasn't, but by claiming so, you've undermined your argument.It was a couple of points higher but you get my drift.
Are you pissed or just thick? Colin managed to bring in 3 premiership quality players but couldn't find a striker. give up you dozey twat.
For the third time, which out of work strikers of Championship quality could he have brought in, given that he didn't have a transfer or loan window in which to operate?
Actually, I feel a need to clarify things here, just in case you're not certain.
Warnock has not been able to buy or bring loan players into the club. He's only brought in free agents.
I'd like to find out who these free agent strikers are that were out of work but could have been brought in. In fact, if they were talented enough but out of work, why didn't Slade spot them?

Why do you keep harping on about a transfer or loan window? Am I wasting my time talking to a plum like you? You said Slade had 3 chances to bring in a striker who should he have brought in?
Has Warnock had a transfer or loan window in which to bring in players? No. Slade did.
Who are these strikers (for the 4th time) that were out of work that Warnock could have brought in?
Have you got some kind of condition where the mouth and brain don't work in unison?
Slades remit was to get rid of players dopey.
Are you suggesting that Slade could only bring in free agents?
