Re: CARDIFF CITY v W.B.A. Match thread
I remember when Hartson played for West Brom, and Robson was their manager.
Think we beat them 2.0 .
Memories..always a comfort to.look back on.

The match that Hartson took the stick from the crowd ended 1-1, we did beat Birmingham around about the same time 2-0, no Hartson in their line up though.

The stick hartson got that night was quite something. Not sure I've ever heard anything like it before or since.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v W.B.A. Match thread
I’d put Bagan at left back and push O’Dowda forward. I’d stick with Willock and drop Ashford and if he’s ineffective, I’d bring Davies on. I’m not sure I’d play Robertson as I don’t think he’s played that well in the last 2 games but I don’t t know who I’d replace him with.

I thought Robertson was much better in the last 2 games then in the ones immediately prior
Is Davies fit?

Look, Omar, you’ve had your chance, now leave it to someone else to sort out :hehe:
Isn’t Davies out ?

Hardly Omer, as he rarely picked Bagan ! I didn’t realise Davies is out.

Has any Cardiff manager picked Bagan more?

He got some insane stick that night and do you know what it affected him. That's what you call home advantage.

Yes it was cracking, good enough, Cullen had a bit this year.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v W.B.A. Match thread
I'm looking forward to it, the players will give it a go, I'm fairly sure of that, we may find out a little more about how good the squad is in the last two games.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v W.B.A. Match thread
Just seen that Mannsverk is out for the last two games, thats a big loss!

Don't think it's that big of a loss. Worse passer to come out of Ajax!

Re: CARDIFF CITY v W.B.A. Match thread
It's heart warming to see the faith in the club and players. May as well be delusional and think we have a chance to stay up.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v W.B.A. Match thread
- Cardiff are winless in their last seven league games against West Brom (D4 L3), failing to score in five of these matches.
- West Brom have won two of their last three away league games against Cardiff (D1), as many as in their previous 11 visits (D6 L3).
- Cardiff have won just one of their last 10 league games (D4 L5), and are winless in six since beating Blackburn 2-1 in March.
- West Brom have lost five of their last six league games (W1), as many as they had in their previous 30 (W8 D17).
- West Brom are winless in their last 14 away league games (D7 L7). It’s their longest run since a run of 15 between September 2017 and March 2018, while they’ve never gone 15 without a win on the road outside the top-flight.

I remember Cameron Jerome getting a lot of stick when he came on in that Birmingham game.
Always thought he was treated badly by City fans.

Agreed, he didn't fit the profile for some fans bob. He wasn't Welsh, he didn't come through the system, and he was confident as well, a bit of a swagger. Some people don't like that type of thing.

I think it was more he made some specific comments about wanting to move to be with better players and coaches.
So of course him coming on when we are 2 0 up and top of the league is quite funny and going to get some pantomime booing. Of course he had the last laugh though.

Correct me if i'm wrong, and it is a possibility...... :hehe: He didn't seem that popular when he played for us either. If you compare how young players coming through are talked about now, on here and social media, although we didn't eem to have that kind of 'Love in' with young players coming through, not so long ago. I mean, Earnshaw, Jerome, Collins, Ledley were the real deal, much better than anything we have now, yet i can't remember people going crazy for them like we do now if a young players controls the ball well or something...... Maybe it's because people are so very desperate to see something positive now?

All those came through before social media to be fair....... :old:

I don't know where this idea Welsh players get special treatment comes from, there aren't many players in our squad that get more stick than Rubin Colwill for instance. Same for Mark Harris & Will Vaulks when they were here.

Karlan Grant own goal in the 97th minute to keep his old club alive. You read it here first.

I think the welsh ones promote more extreme views either way.

Young welsh players get talked up massively, way above their ability, that's probably why there are more counter arguments. If people were balanced on their views and opinions on young players coming through, then there wouldn't be so much criticism, and there isn't really. Welsh home grown players are always going to be treated differently to those who aren't from the local area, i get that, but there has to be balance, and these players can't just be defended because of where they were born, which happens a lot. Oddly enough, Ashford hasn't had the same treatment, much more balanced approach on all sides.
