Good luck to the brave travelling support making their way up to the lions den tomorrow night.

Fair play to anyone going up, I just cannot see anything other than a hammering. I went to the match with the Noone goal last time we were up and that was one sided enough in the end. This Man City team are so much better.

No need really, they played in sky blue down here, unless we’re trying to dazzle them.

I think they are hoping no one recognises it's us as the scoreboard clicks over
I’m expecting a few changes for this one. Maybe Zahore and Ralls to start?
Bit Fecking Cheeky ......... I'd love for us to win by some sort of miracle :ayatollah:

Perhaps Cunningham at lb, Ralls in mf NML on right. Warnock darent make too many changes after what he said.

And they think we’re playing Burnley on Saturday ��
Shit article paid obviously paid for by Paddypower offering, frankly, ridiculous odds - Even Newport gave them a bit of a game FFS and Huddersfield drew 0-0 with them last season.. It's highly unlikely but not 80/1 unlikely - I will be putting £5 on us to win.!
Sky reporting that Jazz Richards to start!

Warnock said he was putting out a second string team. 😀
Same team as Saturday, other than Ralls for Arter (who isn't in the squad?).
Michael Morris
03-04-19, 17:55
Just one change for Cardiff. Ralls replaces Arter:
Cardiff: Etheridge, Peltier, Morrison, Manga, Bennett, Gunnarsson, Ralls, Camarasa, Murphy, Hoilett, Niasse.
Man City: Ederson, Danilo, Stones, Laporte, Zinchenko, Fernandinho, Foden, De Bruyne, Mahrez, Sane, Jesus.

Bit late for April fools joke.
Foden's first ever league start. Pep almost treating it like a cup game?

He’s not even on the bench! I think he would be banned for the next two matches if he got booked tonight.

Yes, he'd be banned as he'd of accrued 10 yellow cards before 32 games have been played.

Well this is thoroughly depressing
This should have been a free hit after Sunday. Bloody ref and linesmen.

Looks like we’re playing with a hangover, no pressing, no level of intensity, it’s like a training exercise for Man City
And now Chelsea are 1-0 down to Brighton
Great.

Because no Arter. Gonna be a long night.

Lucky it’s only 1-0 still.
What’s the point in turning up to a game to feel sorry for ourselves and hand the game to the opposition?
Too many times it’s happened this season. Piss take for the travelling supporters.
Welshcake.

Chelsea have turned it around and it’s now 1-0 to them.

2 - 0 Man City

For some reason my phone gave me an alert saying it was 1-0 Brighton!
Gone through about 4 of them
Like to think we are helping Liverpool lose the title tonight, after the sham that was last Sunday, I don’t think anything matters anymore. We’ve been allocated the last relegation slot it seems. I honestly think we should celebrate gett8ng back to the real world league. The phoney contrived money league can just do one.....
Hoilett is garbage so is Ralls
First half could have gone a lot worse
Shame to have conceded so close to half time though
Did the second deflect in off Bennett?

03-04-19, 19:43
pelts and bennett should be replaced..we need a full squad against burnley
If we can injure a few more of their players maybe they'll forfeit

Gunnarsson looks like an old man ambling around in midfield.

It's depressing watching. Nothing enjoyable about it at all. Like it was at CCS
Yeah completely outclassed. Pointless game.

It's bad enough trying to get hold of the ball without Hoillett giving it away every time we get it.

everything i hate about football is represented through Manchester City. Their football is sublime but they have spent all the money in the world to achieve it as well as having one of the best football minds out there to put it all together.
no wonder they never fill their stadium, they are just boring to follow.
Go on Neil - on your own mate

Well, even when we do the officials conspire for us to lose so what’s the point breaking a sweat eh? Save it for more corruption at Burnely

Priceless.
Amazing what you can do with the most expensive squad in football history funded by near-infinite oil wealth. This Abu Dhabi soft power project reduces matches like this to an utterly pointless contest.

Niasse - send him back to Everton now!
Priceless.
I’d say fruitless, less vinny fancies chucking a billion or two in the pot so we can match them.....

Niasse clean through on goal. Hopeless.

Zohore has to start v Brighton and Burnley.

I’m hoping that’s why Niasse is seeing out the whole 90, he seems clueless when it comes to finishing!

Niasse clean through on goal. Hopeless.
While he made a total hash of it, Mendez-Laing's ball was slightly behind him. He was surprised to get another bite at the cherry and ballsed it up totally. Had M-L put it in front of him for Niasse to run on to, maybe he could have got a shot away.
Love Niasse’s endeavour but Ken is a class above and needs to start.
No Eric it was feckin awful by Niasse.
Well done lads. Good away performance against the moneybags
Eric the Half a Bee
03-04-19, 20:45
No Eric it was feckin awful by Niasse.
Of course it was, I said that. M-L's pass wasn't the most helpful, either.
Cyncoed Slumdog
03-04-19, 20:45
Completely outplayed but they stuck at it. Sort of relieved at 2-0 scoreline.
De Bruyne just admitted he wasn't shooting for the first goal.
Miss hit and a deflection?
Bluebirdman Of Alcathays
03-04-19, 20:58
Be fair to Niasse - he probably got disorientated being so far up the pitch.
billy.ronson
03-04-19, 21:46
Need Bournemouth and Liverpool to do us a favour before we play Burnley!

Imagine being a fully grown adult and actually thinking dropping Niasse for Ken would improve the team. **** me.

I'm not sure I'd do it but you can hardly blame people. Niasse doesn't look like he's going to score, even when it seems impossible not to.

Neither does Ken other than that complete fluke at Soton. Niasse at least has a fluke in him. Niasse is a far superior football player in every single facet of the game, other than scoring.

I thought Ken for the last 15 would've at least given us an option over the top and something for their defence to think about. He would've got a shot away if he was through on goal.

Shouldn’t be a striker then.
