By the way, the name Guiseppe Verde sounds less impressive when you think it's the equivalent of Joe Green.
The Overture is absolutely beautiful.

Drinking song from La Traviata. I doubt whether Chesney Hawkes or Barry Manilow could top Pavarotti's performance here.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v READING. Match thread
How does a thread about City v. Reading turn in to an opera love in?
It's too highbrow for me, I prefer Gilbert and Sullivan

Re: CARDIFF CITY v READING. Match thread
Perfect game for wickham kaba and Etete all to start. It’s a stinker already

Re: CARDIFF CITY v READING. Match thread
Clearly he's expecting Reading to come for a point.
And he has the b*lls to go for the win - deserves to be rewarded
Go on, City, give it to them tonight :thumbup:

343 IMO.
Philogene at right wing back where he ended the last game.
Robinson etete and Kaba up top
Or Robinson as the 10 to drop back into midfield

Re: CARDIFF CITY v READING. Match thread
Interesting line up. Looks attacking, hopefully doesn’t leave us open at the back.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v READING. Match thread
Carroll is bound to score. Aargh.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v READING. Match thread
Looks like a back five for us with Sarr,Dann and Mbengue the three centre backs with Hoilett and Guinness-Walker as wings backs.
Pleased to see Azeez and Fornah starting.
Joao, Holmes, Hutchinson,Moore,Hendrick, Long, Rahman and Tetek out injured or ill. Yiadom suspended.
Ince only on the bench. Not sure why as he is nailed on for our PoTS.

How is Hoilett as a wingback?

Not great but not his fault.This is a very defensive side. I have no idea why Ince continues with a formation that doesn’t work.

According to Paul Ince on Sky his son has a tight hamstring.
