Thread: Need a 'Leicester' game

  1. #1

    Need a 'Leicester' game

    We need a game this season like that Leicester game where Gypes got his marching orders taking one for the team.
    The response in the crowd to that sending off was phenominal and the players realised we were right in the thick of it and feeling it with them.
    This team has, to a man, run through brick walls for us this season and now with a very potentially exciting run in it's time for us to assist and do our bit.
    Something changed that night against Leicester for the relationship between team and crowd. A similar change could make a significant difference to our fate this season.

    The thing I remember most about that night was Paul Quinns performance at make shift centre half after Gyepes got sent off. He was a gritty player of somewhat limited talent but he was immense that night and threw himself in front of everything. He was injured as well but couldnt be subbed as we had used all our replacements before the sending off. He was limping around with a bandaged leg marshalling the troops under a sustained onslaught. His best game by far for us I think.

    Yes i recall his performance too. Hadn't had much game time in his Cardiff career but stepped up that night and was an absolute warrior.

    Weren't we effectively down to nine as Chris Burke was hobbling around with cramp or a muscle pull towards the end?

    That game may be on Sunday against local rivals and rivals for promotion.
