A Unique Achievement

Re: A Unique Achievement

McCarthy has, by and large, united the fan base.

So did Warnock. But with very different effect

Re: A Unique Achievement

I always support the manager until the end

That's where we are at

Well said, its not an easy job ,still confused as to why the players have drastically changed their performances from the ones we saw in his first 11 games of Micks tennership ?

What does that mean? You'll support any City manager no matter what damage they do to your team until they are no longer at Cardiff? What then? Talk shit about them after the fact? Sensible.

Players are also to blame most definitely.

But it really all comes back to MM's negativity, players out of position, dropping young players at half time when really no one was playing well.

We have been raising the white flag an hour before ko and its baffling.

It can't be a happy place.

Re: A Unique Achievement

So you are happy for MM to keep picking 5 at the back because he started so well for us as a manager?

That's some conclusion

Can I have some of the acid you are dropping ?

No it means even people like me who think it's best to get behind every cardiff city manager reach a point where the time is up

Clearly those of us that were moaning even when we were winning will say they were right all along but that doesn't concern me

I just wish Mick would put his tenners into someone else's club and to start him off I'm prepared to start a petition called "Give Mick A Tenner" as a sort of rusty iron handshake.

Did the £10 Poms sail on that?

Re: A Unique Achievement

He did it, we lost 5-1, he did it, we lost 4-0, he changed it we lost 1-0 but could have easily won that game. He changed it back, we lost 3-0
He's a clueless twat

Not sticking up for MM here because I want him gone too, but I don't think he played 5 CB's against Blackburn. West Brom was the first we saw of total Mickball

You're right. I think that was the final straw for him..

I've been consistent in my dislike of him, I understand people giving the manager a chance and can't knock that line of thinking, but I just couldn't see what he had to offer and didn't want him from day one as apart from a purple patch I couldn't see what he was going to bring us. I don't care about being right, I'm just pissed off we got him and then ended up sticking by him with a new contract. It was a disaster waiting to happen, and more sideways thinking from the club.

Last year was probably a final opportunity after Harris went to take the club in a better different direction.
How anyone thought Mccarthy was the answer was beyond me.

100 percent it was. I didn't think Harris was the right man at first but after time I started to give him a chance, I haven't even been able to do that little for McCarthy because he's offered nothing.

And liken you say, it was an opportunity for us to make changes, but now we are set even further back.

It frustrates me because as we saw with NW staying, it wasn't the right call and it set us back, we got deeper into Warnock ball and his players are engrained even deeper into the club making it harder for us to make changes to the playing team and overall style. That was a few years ago, we are even deeper in now, and further away. Frustrates me because people saying "get behind the team and manager" may be right, but they don't understand that I'm frustrated because I DO want what's best for the team and I do want to support the team but I'm pissed off at what's happening in front of our own eyes.

Well either we are going to look at MMs time at Cardiff City from day one or we are going to look at the period when he went for that 5 across the back

So you're happy to look at McCarthy's record from day one. Fair enough. By your own admission, playing 5 at the back has been a mistake.

It didn't work , that's life

So if it doesn't work, how many more attempts has McCarthy got to get it to work, based on his initial successes after he took over? If the answer is zero, then you can't be happy with MM playing 5 centre backs. Otherwise, you are happy for him to keep giving 5 centre backs a go.
