The worry is that QPR and Reading will pull out a result from somewhere. Something we look uncapable of. Although Watford are a bonkers club and as Huddersfield showed can be beaten at Vicarage Rd.

It does look like its between us, QPR and Reading. Max of 2 wins will see any of those safe.

If we show the same level of attacking intent as we did for an hour v Sheff we will get something at Watford.
On the other hand, if our defence is as suspect as it was, another defeat beckons.

Trouble with Watford is the sheer amount of individual quality they have. If Pedro or Sarr are on it then I think it'll be a long night for or defenders

Are you hedging your bets?

Lol
In all honesty I cant see us getting anything. We are so poor overall and the manager doesnt seem to be able to organise the team to make us at least difficult to beat.

Trigger
16-04-23, 18:16
Think it's between us and qpr.

Reading not easy to beat and at home aren't as awful as they were down here.

Think it's us or qpr for who can be less shit.

Former Labour leader
16-04-23, 19:10
Wonder if the manager will shake the team up a bit. Not too many options, but Alnwick, Romeo and Davies could come into the team. Where is Colwill? Seems like Harris and Whyte have played their last games for us.

Llandaff Blue
16-04-23, 22:10
Watford are a strange team but have enough individual quality to make it tough for us. 2-0 Watford, our best hope is the Huddersfield/Rotherham games

Carl Dale's Mole

Bellers is going to make sure we play their U12s on the last day.

Problem is we'll still lose.

Lamo will be tempted to give some key players the night off to preserve them for Stoke's visit.

It's a shame they beat Bristol City last weekend to retain an outside chance of a play-off finish.

Don Corleone
17-04-23, 07:50
I’m guessing there’s no chance we’ll see Callum Robinson back before the end of the season? We really could do with him in the side for the last few games

Former Labour leader
17-04-23, 10:54
I suspect we will see a few changes to freshen the team up with a view to a more winnable game Saturday.
Alnwick
Romeo
Cedric
Ng
McGuinness
ODowda
Sawyers
Ralls
Wintle
Etete
Davies

We don’t have enough games left to try and chose where our points come from - though I suspect you may be right as Lamouchi does appear to like to mix things up, inexplicably sometimes!

City - just get something from this game - anything will do. A scrappy draw a last min goal mouth bundle - just please get something. Thanks in advance!

So you think that Rotherham and Huddersfield are safe ? Like to know how you worked that out.

Der Kaiser

So you think that Rotherham and Huddersfield are safe ? Like to know how you worked that out.

Rotherham are effectively 4 points clear if you take into account their goal difference, with a game in hand.

Huddersfield have Warnock and have been in very good form over the last month and shown far more fight than anyone else involved in the relegation battle.

I agree it does look like it's between the 3 mentioned, come Saturday night it might not.

Philogene might be out tomorrow, also Simpson. Colwill's still injured and Robinson's definitely out for the season ☹️

Carl Dale's Mole
19-04-23, 03:54
Not sure I bother waking up at 2:45am for this one. They've given me no reason to lately.

Our best players are either injured (Robinson, O'Dowda) or on loan with one foot out the door (Philogene, Kipre).

Everything else is a steamy pile of useless shit.

Watford 2-0.

That was a crucial point both picked up last night, but more so hudds as we have two games in hand on them, obv tonight doesn’t really count as we are bound to lose and the other being the farce up north, another we are fated to lose after looking like winning the original game…..

As always at this time of season there are surprise results. Maybe we’ll get one tonight, I’m not predicting anything of course…

This tension is getting to me. I'll be having a heart attack at this rate.
I think it best that I dont watch the game tonight or follow the scores and just wait till 10pm when I can get the bad news in one go.
Supporting your team doesn't get easier with age.

I found the opposite, the older I get the more I realise it’s not the be all and end all (unless we’re playing the jacks).

I’m resigned to another defeat so anything other than that is a bonus

UNDERHILL1927
19-04-23, 17:23
And if I’m going for a prediction I’d say 1-1

Romeo and O’Dowda start so better options at wing back tonight hopefully.

I’d love a big game for Etete but I just don’t see it, I’d have played Wickham.

North Cardiff Blue
19-04-23, 18:08
Philogene might be out tomorrow, also Simpson. Colwill's still injured and Robinson's definitely out for the season ☹️


Not worried about Colwill he's backup, to the backups, but Philogene is a massive loss, and Robinson is absolutely gutting!


Not the best team, not confident now, but who knows at this time in the season, things might just fall into place amd we may actually get a bit of luck.

UNDERHILL1927
19-04-23, 18:25
Having refreshed my memory of the Watford squad, I’d take a 0-0 draw right now. Sarr could easily rip us apart

Law of averages says Watford are due a home defeat to be comparable to teams around them......or is that wishful thinking?

Why are Watford in white shirts??? oh they've taken their tops off now....

Fair play, that first 10 minutes is impressive how bad we played. We are dreadful and yet, they still find ways to play worse.

Been coming.....one way traffic.....Jeepers...no pressing or energy again.

oh and QPR are 1-0 up...

That opening was depressingly familiar
Passive, soporific garbage followed by an inevitable goal.

bluesp
19-04-23, 18:59
Ref missed a blatant handball, we go upfield and give it away cheaply, then leave one of their players in acres of space in the box

Maurice Swan
19-04-23, 18:59
Don't they watch other successful teams and their energy???

the other bob wilson
19-04-23, 18:59
We’re really up for this game aren’t we - they do realise it’s not an eight o clock kick off do they?

If we stick to our normal approach when we go a goal down, it’s game over almost before it’s begun.

Wash DC Blue
19-04-23, 19:02
Penalty surely?!

SuisseBluebird
19-04-23, 19:02
Troubling that Cardiff still find themselves outnumbered when defending in their own box. Looks like a mix of Wintle and O'Dowda not dropping back to assist covering McGuiness who was left with the thankless task of defending against 2 men.

Nothing ticking in terms of progress up the pitch, 2-3 passes before a sloppy one is swept up easily by the Hornets. And they are pressing Cardiff throughout the opening 15.

Doesn't bode well unless Cardiff force themselves on this game.

Don Corleone
19-04-23, 19:04

2b2bdoo

I’ll say it again hoping I look a fool when he knocks a couple in but I don’t see how Etete is starting, bet defenders love playing against him.

Watching on the red button so no replay, but that looked a really special goal. In fact, we appear to have something special in Kaba.

Don Corleone
19-04-23, 19:51
We mustn’t sit back 2nd half, Watford look good going forward but are all over the place at the back. I hope we don’t drop deep and go all passive again, that will invite trouble. We need to keep pressing them

Maurice Swan

Etete is contender for goal of the season. He’s not scored enough but he’s improving steadily and shows good attitude

Kaba - what a signing. How did we manage that one.

Some of those players are good enough. Some aren’t, admittedly

With stoke, Rotherham and Huddersfield to come, we’ve only ourselves to blame if we go down now

Well done Sabri, well done City
