If we go up this season (which we won't) we will be worse than Derby and concede more than Swindon did

Nobody above 3-4 (if that) apart from Alnwick (7-8)...and possibly Colwill a 6.
How the hell are we still 12th and only 3 points (+GD) from play off place?t

More chance of Sludge getting his Nat King than us going up.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v LEEDS UNITED. Match thread
Disappointing, we are way off that level but then I suppose it shouldn’t be a surprise when you consider how much they spent on players and our team of freebies.

Why even mention it (going up)?
You could also say.. "If QPR go up theyll be worse than Derby.

The only important numbers are how many we are above relegation, and right now it's 15. We have found our level after a better than expected start. The fact that we are still relatively close to 6th place says more about the general quality of the division than anything else. Aside from the top 4/5, it's piss poor.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v LEEDS UNITED. Match thread
From start to finish we were poor and it was embarrassing.
We are miles off the pace at the moment regardless of Ramsey, Moore and anyone else coming in.
Ettete seems to be scared of the ball

Re: CARDIFF CITY v LEEDS UNITED. Match thread
Colwill is just so much better than any other creative player. Why are you not his greatest fan? Don't like his haircut?

We are doing well to be mid table after no money spent for so long, Ramsey missing half the season, a few signings and I reckon we’d get up to 6-8 maybe….shame keifer deal is taking so long, he obviously just wants to move here, no doubt his misses is happy here and wears the trousers

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 3 LEEDS UNITED. Match thread
I'm not keen on our manager, never have been, the team is now lacking forward drive. Replace Bulut.

There don't seem to be any fight in the squad, I don't think we had a player booked which is no surprise as we didn't get anywhere near them. Bulut has to go he just can't motivate the players it's the same crap every game.

I like Bulut...and he needs a few transfer windows o bring in HIS players. What I DON'T like is the 'tactic' of often sitting back to contain the opposition and hope to break away...so negative, even with the players we have. Why not go on the offensive from the start?

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 3 LEEDS UNITED. Match thread
The club is a joke, came out of the ground and tried to turn right onto sloper rd only to be met by a line of police blocking the road. Was there any announcement before the game?

Etete is only a League One player at best at the moment. He is no improvement, in my eyes, than Mark Harris or Isaac Davies, although a different type of striker to those two,

His decision making is his weakness.
He's aware of the hype about him that says he'll produce something that others can't (ala Tomlin)
When the ball comes to his feet, he isn't always thinking about the best option for the team, instead he's trying to showcase his skills.
Today, Leeds truly had a 'young gifted player' that started for them (Gray, aged 17), who was so effective and yet he kept it simple.
All the resources that a club like Leeds have, they put their faith in such a young player.
It might be that Gray will fade away (Steve Strange, did you see what I did there? :hehe:) but they put faith in him.
In simple terms, I just don't think our young players are good enough.

Yes there were...even in France I read them. Never knew that to happen though in all my time locally supporting them..even against the top teams.

Absolutely agree....I saw Grey make his debut and knew he was something special. 17....we simply don;t trust them at that age.

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 3 LEEDS UNITED. Match thread
I can take losing no problem, but every single week now for months you see opposition fans commenting on twitter for months now that we are the worst team they've played this season.
We seriously look like the worst team in the league repeatedly. We need a striker and a midfielder asap.

I see the same...and it's basically what the Leeds Commentators said today....not nice to see but hard to disagree.
WOL gave rating of 5-6 for most players....3-4 in my opinion...if that.

As others have said, even when there is a gulf in class as there is in some FA cup ties, the underdogs usually show spirit and go down fighting.
This is an important question. Ok he brings in some new recruits but what will he do with them? Will we see the same passive crap just with some better quality players admiring the opposition?

I fully agree. It's been quite painful viewing recently, but not overly surprising with the injuries and lack of depth. It's still good progress over the last two seasons, with almost nothing spent.
Unless Ramsey is due back soon, we desperately need someone in the middle to come in to offer something different to the 3 identical holding players we currently start with. As many others have said, we set up like we are playing damage limitation from the first minute. Rather lose 4 or 5 nil whlist at least trying to do something.

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 3 LEEDS UNITED. Match thread
It was pretty disgraceful today even allowing for the disparity in class.
-
Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 3 LEEDS UNITED. Match thread
Thank goodness we have a buffer to the bottom 3. Our football has gone to the dogs over last couple of months. Some blame must be attached to Bulit who has, in my opinion, shown a naivety to what is needed in the Championship.
We definitely need reinforcements, I think we all hoped we would see them by now, although it is looking increasingly likely that we will be facing Plymouth with the same squad.

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 3 LEEDS UNITED. Match thread
Shocking performance, I took a Leeds fan with me today who said he couldn’t believe how passive and poor we were.
He found it hard to even get motivated to take the mickey out of me which I have done to him many times in the past. He couldn’t understand how we were so high in the table and said along with Rotherham we were the worst side he’s seen Leeds play this season .
Alnwick did his job, Colwill tried, the rest were an embarrassment. At least the 3 Welsh players in the Leeds team look in good form and hopefully can take that into the playoffs but we did make it very easy for them.
We looked beaten from the start , we started slowly and got worse

Rather than continuously change managers I feel we have no option but to entrust Bulut with bringing in players he feels will make a difference. If the performances do not improve once the new players have been bedded in......then Tan/Dalman may have to consider other options.
