Nobody is good enough to play as a 10 with how we play. We don't commit enough players forward or have any ability behind them to make a 10 usefulQuote:

Some discussion on Radio Wales as to whether Ramsey should now retire from international football. The more realistic question is whether he should retire from playing full stop. Anyway, don't want to knock Rambo, the problem today and all season has been a complete lack of footballing strategy, and that comes from the manager.Quote:

Goutas did seem to have a shocker today.
Just got in. Soaked before the game walking to the ground and then watched that sh!t.
Slow tedious passing an inability to play quick passes forward , poor movement and no young players being given an opportunity. Created nothing. Poor finishing and a good display from Horvarth meant that we werent on the wrong side of a 5 or 6 goal hammering.
Our pressing is just laughable.
I havent seen it replayed but I thought the ref was conned for the pen. 1st 10 mins Sunderland looked nervous and that gave them a boost.
I was in the stick with Bulut as our clowns will lumber us with someone worse.
I find it hard to back him. These players look badly coached. Obviously some are not good enough but as a unit I cant believe a half decent manager can get this lot playing better.
It's Bulut's fault. He mind tricked Goutas in to giving the ball away then did the same for the penalty. The whole squad to a man has been inflicted with Bulut's ability to make every one of them make basic errors. I think that Bulut ia shit, a grifter, he's out of his depth, if a depth actually exists for him to work in. But, give me a boss who i can blame for the most basic of **** up's and it'll be Friday afternoon every working day. Bulut is shit, but so are plenty of those players, they're cowards.Quote:

I'm not going to get into a Bulut debate but we have played good football a grand total of zero times this season. We are a bad side. He has improved zero players and he's signed some stinkers. Bulut is as bad as we've had in recent years, and he's certainly the biggest disappointment.Quote:

Perhaps he is done. I'm not going to write him off just yet though.Quote:

people critiquing Ramsey really should look at the excuses they give some of the duff players in our squad. Ramsey has just come back from a long injury..clearly not match fit and has a LOT of roles on his shoulders when he comes on. Bit of logic and you can see we shouldnt be pinning our hopes on Ramsey...yet
What a shitshow. We had ten minutes of neat football, where we looked confident and almost dangerous. They get that soft penalty and we completely fell apart. We should stop playing the loanees now. I just want to see players that are thinking about Cardiff City and next season.
You can't say that publicly! You're just supposed to think it before you fall asleep and then keep it to yourself.Quote:

I never seen the fuss previously, but I think he’s grown into a more rounded player this season.
Has to be The New Saints. Oswestry is where William Archibald Spooner was educated.Quote:

He’d avoid the flak and be given a lot more leeway if there were a few kids on the pitch or coming on off the bench, can’t he see that he’s in a ideal situation to blood youth with little recrimination.
Never?? You? Sarcastic? :hehe:Quote:

He will know just like most with an ounce of common sense that no contract = still under trial. The board must be judging him on these last games as they are still unsure on his ability (and rightly so imo). He needs wins right now..thats why he had to drop his lapdog siopisstaker last game. Unfortunately for bulut..playing park the bus in the first half was a terrible idea
Bulut pre-Sunderland said he was not going to use any of the youngsters for the first four (of eight) games because he wanted to see where we were at that point in the table. He appeared to think we could be pushing for the play offs again (Ha!). But he did say he would use some youngsters in the final four games - presumably when his dream of a play off push had crashed and died. The decision on using Joel Colwill or Cam Antwi or Cian Ashford had nothing to do with his contract situation. At least, that's what Bulut said.Quote:

I’ve seen some terrible performances by officials this season but can’t remember one being so costly.
He was a poor ref, Capt Mainwaring in shorts with a whistle.Quote:
