We have that little bit of quality when it matters. I think it's that simple.

Such an awful side they bossed the game for long periods.

Does anyone know of another club that routinely changes one or both of its centrebacks every game?

It's bordering on the bizarre. What did Fish do to deserve being demoted to the bench?

I think its crazy. He really needs to play Fish / Lawlor .
However he can point to the league table.

You look a better team than your position suggests.
Lewis Wing best outfielder player on the pitch and thought young Savage was decent.
You keep playing like that you’ll climb the league.

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 1 READING. Match thread
When we won the league under Malky , Marshall won us many games that season.
Maybe the same again?

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 1 READING. Match thread
Think some of the criticism of Kellyman on here is misplaced,when he got more of the ball in the second half he terrorised their defence,our basic passing game was so poor today,especially defensively,passing around at the back,inevitably leads us to panic,we just ain’t good enough to play that game comfortably.I would love to see Salech and Robinson starting together,as for midfield,we’ve got a creative, positive player in the squad,who for some reason (which I’d like to see made public) can’t even make the match day subs,if Robertson is not going to play for us again,please put us out of our misery and let us know why,finally,Trott was superb,I could be wrong but I thought their goal was a bit special.

Wing played further forward today and it made a difference. We were a lot better going forward. Savage has been very quiet this season but much better and box to box today. However if we can't do the basics of tracking and marking we will keep conceding goals and losing games.
Very frustrating because there is a half decent team there.

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 1 READING. Match thread
Trott - 8
Kpakio - 9
Osho - 3
Chambers - 7
Bagan - 5
Turnbull - 6
J Colwill - 5
R Colwill - 7
Kellyman - 5
Salech - 7
Willock - 5
Reading a really poor side and the fact they bossed the game for spells is a worry. Thought Orient were much better a few weeks ago whereas today was us letting a poor side impose themselves on the game. Another 3 points though we'll be there or thereabouts even with our glaring limitations which is a good sign at least

Marshall was very good, don't get me wrong - but Trott is the best I've seen (I go back to the days of Ron Healey and Bill Irwin).

On the contrary, Reading presented themselves as a very good side, at least on the evidence of this game.

I enjoyed the first few games and parts of the second half today but thought the first half was awful and didn't enjoy it.

Hes made some great saves. However their first is really poor and why hes got a 7. Im sure he knows it as well. Hes really good though but this is L1 and a long way to go before he can claim to be better than Marshall. In my opinion.

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 1 READING. Match thread
Midfield was non-existent today. Needs serious work and repositioning of players. We barely won a second ball and 50/50s we lost 9 times out of 10.
-
Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 1 READING. Match thread
Turnbull drops too deep, Colwill’s too far forward at times leave us so exposed and we aren’t there to get loose ball. Sort it BBM

Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 1 READING. Match thread
Always seems better to discuss the weaknesses after a win. Hope BBM keeps on learning.
So what did we learn?
Osho isnÂ’t a kid and canÂ’t keep getting these chances A liability despite some dribbling strengths. Probably makes the other defenders nervous.
Had misgivings with that starting line up and all pretty much proved correct.
Davies must start before the appalling Willock and Robinson should start too. Kellyman was awful apart from the way he made the goal, IÂ’m not sure of his attitude. Thinks he doesnÂ’t need to work. He needs to get real as heÂ’s never getting in a PL side.
Kacapio excellent as was Trott. He saved us again.

Disagree. Thought they were a poor team which just goes to show how poor we were.
BBM needs to sort the defence out. Shambles.
