FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 1 STOKE CITY. Match thread

[Former Labour leader]

What the hell is going on.
2-0 Grant

[LA Bluebird]

Colwill has been poor up until then, but brilliant to see him winning the ball in midfield and calm as you like from Grant

[Maurice Swan]

2-0....Ralls making a real difference

[LA Bluebird]

2-0....Ralls making a real difference

The difference today, just a different level to Wintle in terms of positioning and passing

[LA Bluebird]

Really stupid foul by Perry

[PontBlue]

Bad goalkeeping. Should be pushing that wide not to the edge of the six yard box

[NYCBlue]

The set-up for that free kick was terrible. I was expecting them to score from a direct kick.

[Maurice Swan]

Bad goalkeeping. Should be pushing that wide not to the edge of the six yard box

yep....

[MacAdder]

Should be 3-1.... jammy b*****ds

[Don Corleone]

Really stupid foul by Perry

Agree , it was a ridiculous petulant and unnecessary push

[Don Corleone]

2-0....Ralls making a real difference

Yes Ralls playing well and moving the ball quicker

[2b2bdoo]

Bowler looking more lively as well.

[NYCBlue]

That's Perry. It's who he is. On the whole, I'll take it.

[Maurice Swan]

Bowler looking more lively as well.

WAs just about to post that...wonder what the half time team talk will be....? Unless we get a third I can see this being 2-2

[Blooburd]

2-0....Ralls making a real difference

he is the difference this match

i just hope bulut doesnt do his regular tuck tail and run tactic in the second half. If we defend now we lose (again)

[NYCBlue]

OK, so Stoke are shit, but we're playing much better football today. Imagine the difference O'Dowda and a fully fit Rambo could make.

Probably can discount Ramsey....and no doubt O'Dowda will be injured again with tweaks....would like to see J Colwill and Ashford on at around 60 minutes...and PLEASE don't bring Wintle on instead of Ralls....

Well if that is the half time team talk EB has to go!

There is a lot of space wide, hopefully we can make more of it.

Totally agree about Ralls.

Wintle for Ralls will be nailed on.

[2b2bdoo]

Wintle for Ralls will be nailed on.

Agreed especially if the game is tight. I don’t rate Wintle but it’s understandable when Ralls can’t play 90mins.

[Maurice Swan]

Two decent saves...Goutas was sleeping for that last one......Stoke looking much brighter.

[LA Bluebird]

Goals coming for Stoke here, Phillips and Goutas getting turned and losing track of the runners far too easily.

[LA Bluebird]

And here come the defensive subs

[Blooburd]

AND THERE IT IS BULUT TUCK TAIL AND RUN!

wth is that!? wintle on for grant????
