FT: NOTTINGHAM FOREST 1 - 0 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
Referee: David Webb
Assistants: Rob Smith & Mark Cunliffe
Fourth Official: Thomas Bramall
The game is being streamed live on BT Sport Extra 4 HD
Clubs are now able to name a maximum of nine substitutes of which five may be used.
Teams are permitted a maximum of three opportunities (excluding half time) to make substitutions during normal time, and with the ability to carry over any unused substitutes and make a further substitution should the tie progress to extra time.
All games level after 90 mins will have 30 mins extra time and then if needed penalties.
Another defeat and another directionless, shapeless, dull, tedious and frankly boring performance. And against pretty mediocre opposition.
Plenty of possession but never looked like scoring. The opposition were poor and we were even poorer. I'd like to say something positive but can't. The best I can come up with is that was our first defeat this year.
Re: NOTTINGHAM FOREST v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread
People go on about the system, the way we play doesn’t suit Glatzel etc, in my opinion £6m strikers at our level should be able to make things happen themselves, turn half chances into goals, battle for the ball, bully defenders etc etc regardless of their team mates. It can’t always be the perfect team goal that’s put on a plate for you to finish, a lot of the time the work, skill and effort has to come from the individual. As I said earlier, Glatzel must be a centre back’s dream, he’s powder puff with zero aggression or battling qualities.
Quite simply a typical Cardiff performance under this manager....we can now focus on making sure we get over 50 points and then I imagine there will be a clear out in the summer which may include the manager.
Let’s try and get a right back in the transfer window preferably sooner than later
We should not forget Forest made 8 changes for this game from their last league game, their 2nd string beat us which adds further concerns over our performance

Does it suit any striker?
When was the last time we put a striker through on goal one on one?
