Yeah we do. But even if hes back hes not had much game time since November. On the other board someone insisted Bacuna cant be replaced as hes far more mobile than Ralls!!!!!

Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
I can't seem to get myself going for the derby again. I felt the same back in the reverse fixture too.
Of course, I really want us to win but I haven't been counting down the days 'til kick-off like I have done in derbies in the past.
Anyone else a bit like this?

If we get beaten badly is the atmosphere likely to turn as ugly as Swansea’s manager or is that an impossibility?

It shows how far we've plummeted when a player as bang average as Ralls is needed so badly.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
All things considered, probably the only game of any importance left this season.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
241 Tickets left. All in the upper Nin.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
Listened to Hoillet.......after the defeat at Swansea....."Everyone came in the next day to work harder". Doesn't seem to have done much good does it??? Really he sounded like a stuck record.

It just isn't as important to me.
Of course I want us to win, but win lose or draw, it won't define my day.

From what Harris said in the pre-match press conference, Ralls will not be involved:
'Trained this week, so certainly thinking about stepping him up in the coming week. This week might be too soon. He’s had a hand injury so he’s been able to train but not do the physical stuff. We are looking towards the FA Cup'.

Mr Harrington is the gentleman who gave Weeds that soft penalty, in our 3-3 draw

Well that's bitterly disappointing. Pack is going to have to step up in a massive way in that case, without Ralls I can't see us winning any sort of midfield battle.

Don't you like any of our players or staff or anything anyone at the club does ? Makes me wonder why you bother.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
I say it as I see (and hear) it. Having supported City since 1959/60 I think I am entitled to my opinion. Can you truly disagree with what I said?

At the moment there is very little about Cardiff City I like. The players are tired and unmotivated, the managerial appointment lacks ambition and the board have shown their hand over the last 18 months to be completely inept. Not mention the standard off field crap, such as the club trying their best to irritate fans with the new ticketing platform and just generally being pretty poor in the PR department.
Nothing wrong with calling out the flaws in the club, and at the moments theres a boat load, with very few positives.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
- Cardiff are set to host rivals Swansea in a league match for the first time since November 2013, when they won 1-0 in the Premier League.
- This is the 29th Football League season in which Cardiff and Swansea have met, but the Swans have never previously completed a league double over their rivals; they won 1-0 in the reverse fixture in October.
- Cardiff's 1-6 defeat away to QPR was the first time they'd shipped 6+ goals in a league game outside of the top-flight since April 2009 vs Preston (0-6). Cardiff haven't lost consecutive league games since May 2019 (3 in a row).
- Swansea have lost two of their last three away league games (W1), after going 11 unbeaten on the road beforehand (W5 D6).
- Defender Aden Flint has had a hand in more home league goals for Cardiff this season than any other player (3 goals, 3 assists).
- Swansea's Andre Ayew has been directly involved in eight away league goals this season (5 goals, 3 assists), more than double that of any other player at the club.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
I've woken up a bit grumpy - couldn't be further from what I've been like on the morning of derbies in the past.
I think one particular factor is the Mid-day KO which I absolutely hate, the weather, and the fact I'm back to work tomorrow morning.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
we're doomed..DOOMED i tell ya!

Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
it says a lot that not a single player at the club gives me any hope of winning this match ( or any) i'd like to see them all leave and have a fresh start.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
Some good changes there but doubtful about Etheridge being dropped unless of course he is about to be sold and the club wanted to avoid him being injured.
-
Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
etheridge obviously being looked at... which stinks, huge game and your under contract at city so you should play the best players available to your disposal... yes hes let in a lot of goals but hes not only to blame... you dont drop your 1st choice keeper in the huge game like this
-
Re: CARDIFF CITY v SWANSEA CITY. Match thread
