Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 1 SOUTHAMPTON. Match thread.
So Saints could have been out of sight but Horvath made save good saves and the 2x centre halves threw themselves at everything making some important challenges. I thought they eeee both immense today ! Please sign Phillips !! At half time , I said to my friend “I wonder if Saints will regret not taking their chances?” And as the second half progressed we got more and more into it !!! Ashford did well and great moment for him scoring the winner , Giles and Conte added pace and desire and looked confident on the balll ! A big shout out as well for Colwill who had a great 2nd half and must be allowed to play that role more offer … great day !

They had a good first half, but 6 or 7 is an exaggeration. Anyway, it's goals that count, not chances.
It was the most enjoyable game this season.

Not too much of an exaggeration- they created more chances in the first half than we've done all season.
Enjoyed the game today and the debutant's performances, and Ashford's goal, made it all the better, but being objective we were battered for long spells- a big deflection for the winner makes this season's team the jammiest I can remember. Who needs an excellent manager when we have this much luck?
Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 1 SOUTHAMPTON. Match thread.
It was everything that has been missing at home. Rode luck incredibly but I’ve seen plenty of those the other way round over the years. We have been very fortunate at times this year but the commitment and some of the attacking intent was faultless today. Well done to them all.

Good grief. Astonishing.

That might be clever if that was anywhere close to being "what we often do".

OK, 4 or 5. But I agree it was a most enjoyable game from start to finish.

It might also be clever if it actually happened. But it didn’t. Barely gave Southampton any time or space? Righto…

He's failing at trying to be clever by quoting what I said about Real Madrid the other day.

Oh, I see. Makes a lot more sense. But you never know on this board.

He might also be a little miffed that I won $340 today after he posted this.

I put $20 on City at half time at 16/1.
Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 1 SOUTHAMPTON. Match thread.
The bookmaker under the Canton stand was very quiet during the halftime interval. Not many if any lumping on a City win.
