Enough is enough

Re: Enough is enough

The notion that the atmosphere would automatically be transformed at current home games just by moving those in the Canton End to the Family enclosure is laughable.

I certainly don’t blame Wayne Nash for nearly four seasons worth of rubbish at Cardiff City Stadium.

It would be better though, it’s terrible at the moment. Last 5 times I’ve been I was in the family stand, can’t hear the home fans much, just away fans shouting and swearing, that alone is enough to put most families off. Nevermind moving home fans ends, the family stand would be better up in the red seats with a much better view fir kids too.

Re: Enough is enough

Good.

I use the family stand with my boy whenever I come down. It's great we've got our own area with things to do for the kids.

But it's all about drunken supporters trying to goad the opposition fans. Use the Ninian stand instead.

Exactly. We all know what it would be like in there if it was swapped with the Canton. No one watching the game. The reason the atmosphere was poor last night was because there nothing to sing about.

A season ticket holder for nearly 30 years but finding it harder and harder to justify it. You can’t tell me one person enjoyed that this evening and it is far from one a one off.

Matchday experience has been ruined so when the football is as bad as that there is very little reason to go

It is indeed boring stuff. Truth be told, I suspect most people would be more entertained if we were playing with more verve in League One.

Crowds tend to be better for sides going for promotion in League 1 than they had when being relegated from the Championship.

What was the crowd, it looked empty and everyone there was miserable, it's a low point for sure.

Re: Enough is enough

Unless I've an awful memory, 'the matchday experience' has always been absolute shite.

I'm sure I read on here that they are "revamping" the matchday experience next season? Something about their contracts with the existing providers running out, and a new contract kicking in with Coors? Talk of beer tents in the car park, live bands etc.?

And the fact that the ‘singing’ section hasn’t got any songs bar anti Swansea & anti English songs.

Re: Enough is enough

Utter rubbish! It was so bad I could hear the players shouting/talking to eachother. Awful game.

Re: Enough is enough

The atmosphere has nothing to do with where the away fans are in relation to our fans; it has nothing to do with the beer choice or is the drum going to be there (hopefully not). The atmosphere at ALL grounds depends upon what is being served up on the pitch. We are being served absolute tripe by the club, not a home goal this year and one home point from 12. (I believe)

The Bulut train has stopped, and is reversing down a siding...

If there were 12,000 in the ground last night I would be surprised. It's no wonder it feels flat when the football is so turgid.

I fear that our old friends Stoke may get a result on Saturday. I hope not BUT we look half arsed and disinterested.

It looked terrible on TV. I don't remember seeing a league game at CCS that looked emptier.

I go first to watch the City win and then be entertained, neither has really happened for months.
I’ll probably always have a ST, as it’s something I do to meet up with my grownup sons and mates, so now it’s all about the day with 90 minutes of football in between.

I had high hopes for Bulut, but that has long since gone, either he knows he won’t be here after May or he is so stubborn that he refuses to believe he’s wrong, either way he’s done here.

We have a few who are still in contract, and a few more who will struggle to get the same deal elsewhere that they have here

Thankfully we have a load of loan players who can all go back, and a good number who are out of contract.

We ask have players that should never have been awarded another contract like Wintle, who’s probably one of the worst Championship players we’ve had
Why not give young Colwill a chance to prove himself rather than watching Wintle perform the same shit every game?
We’re going to limp into safety this season with around 45-48 points if we’re lucky

Out of the current squad how many would you want to keep next season?

Alnwick
Ng
Goutas
McGuinness
Colwill R
Colwill jnr
Ramsey is quality but just too injury prone and at 33 just might decide enough is enough?
Tanner?
Ralls?
ODowda?

Would anyone want to keep
Robinson
Etete
Meite
Wintle
Siopis
Collins
Sawyers

Another big rebuild coming up!!!

Re: Enough is enough

Is anyone willing to cut Bulut any slack? We have (arguably) the 6 best players in the squad out injured at the moment, and this is obviously affecting the team, and a consequence of that is a lack of confidence, and a low morale.
Our problem all season has been scoring goals, we have tried 5/6 strikers, all have failed, and our right back is currently the top scorer! I doubt Pep could do any better with the players we have at our disposal at this current time.

Maybe he couldn’t get a better tune out of them, but I’m pretty sure he would have swapped the wingers around so they play on their strongest foot, and had players playing to their strengths.

Bulut was quick enough to criticise Colwill previously, I don’t particularly care if he’s tracking back 40 yards and defending, that’s what defenders and a DM is for!!
I’d keep him as far up the pitch as possible and get the donkeys either side of him to win the ball and set him free

I doubt that Bowler, or Wintle would ever be near the pitch if another manager was here, unless they were ball boys
Even the Wintle would pass it sideways and Bowler would drop it

The obvious reason they “swap wingers about” is to get them to come inside on the defenders weak side, and shoot on their strong foot…..something Bowler is pretty good at, although there is a case for mixing it up a bit, i.e. switching sides periodically.

I think some fans don’t quite understand how much a team is affected by missing so many 1st choice players, the confidence drops, and so does the form, against Blackburn we had (arguably) our 6 best players missing, it’s worth remembering that.
