FT: PRESTON NE 1 - 3 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

F*ck me, Ridsdale looks like a heart attack waiting to happen.

What are we trying to do?

I just don't get it.

And before all the usual happy clappers pipe up I'm asking as I just can't work it out, and I'm not being negative.

Basically not open up keep it tight and try not to lose

Preston are there to be beaten, we're playing the more defensive options.

I just don't understand what we are doing in the final third.

Hard to believe the city - or PNE on this viewing, for that matter - are still in with a shout for promotion at this point in the season. We still feel like such a rag tag bunch of a team.

Looks to me like trying to balance being solid away from home with passing the ball.

Silly mistakes are giving the ball away.

That's what happens with no striker.

Need to stay tight until the inevitable substitutions, no idea of the calibration of Preston’s bench but I’d back ours against most in this division.

Calibration????? Meant calibre :facepalm:

"I think Cardiff are sensing the game is there for the taking.." points out gabbidon, and rightly. Shame the Ayers on the pitch have taken so long to click on to what we all saw from a few minutes in :)

NML and Glatzel coming on soon...

Ralls fifa 21 shooting power. 12.

Referee is weak

Same two as last week, let’s hope for a repeat.

I thought bamba was Warnock's first signing

Glatzel's already done more than Paterson

Bring Tomlin on for the FK, like American Football.

If only we had a player in the pitch that could take this :)

Glatzel already looking like a striker and doing a bit...

****ing have it

Liking Bacuna more and more

Glad we've scored because we would have kicked ourselves not to capitalise on this

RALLS!!!! 01- great cross from sanderson.

Get in!!!!!!!!

Yesssssssssssssss

Never won with this much possession either

Anyone else get a notification of the goal on their phone before seeing the goal being scored

Hoilett "nothing to see here, nothing to see..."

Hoilett shoud have made it two....

Swans 1 down.

Oh **** off

From nothing

shit....1-1

Hoilett should have put this to bed:furious:

Tomlin time then..come on Neil.

I see the purpose of the 3 battling midfielder's and what they offer but one has to come off now before this game turns against us.

C’mon the city! NML makes it 1-2

How wasn’t Tomlin on before. His touch has opened up the game so much
