Prem referee. That's bad news.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v AFC BOURNEMOUTH: Match thread
As there is no attendance allowed why do they bother to make kick off 7.45?
7 O'Clock would be just as good wouldn't it? I could listen to it uninterrupted in work and on my way home then. :shrug:

I honestly think the club are being selfish not scheduling kick off times to suit you.

Pack? He had a decent game at Preston. Bound to start if fit. Bacuna would be unlucky to lose out as well. Think he will start as right back as I doubt TuTu will be fit. Same with Bennett. Bagan may very well have his debut.
Tomlin? Where does he fit in?

This'll be a tough game, on paper they have about the best squad in the league

Thankfully football is played on grass not paper

Think the two full backs will be good to go.
Prefer Vaulks in a midfield 3 if we're starting an effective no.10 in Wilson as he is far, far more mobile than Pack.
Tomlin fits in around the 65th minute. I don't see him starting many games as long as Wilson is fit.

4-3-3 is pretty bold, we'd get overrun in midfield.
Also, I'd play Tutu right back and Bennett (8f fit) LB where he normally plays :tongue:

But that's exactly what they are expecting us to do!

Re: CARDIFF CITY v AFC BOURNEMOUTH: Match thread
If Bennett & Cunningham are out, I imagine Bagan will slot in? I dread to think what would happen if Osei-Tutu's out so I'm going to pretend he isn't
Smithies
Osei-Tutu
Morrison
Nelson
Bagan
Vaulks
Ralls
Ojo
Wilson
Murphy
Moore
I imagine Bournemouth will dominate possession so the more combative Vaulks is in for Pack. A lot of pace on the counter in Ojo, Wilson and Murphy

I'm pretty sure that Hoilett will play on the left wing if Bagan starts at left-back.

Re: CARDIFF CITY v AFC BOURNEMOUTH: Match thread
Bit nervous about next 2 games. Could have a big influence on our season.
As we can ignore home advantage I just hope that we can scrape a draw v Bournemouth before Warnock comes on Saturday to turn us over.
0-0 -City v Bournemouth

Re: CARDIFF CITY v AFC BOURNEMOUTH: Match thread
Got a feeling Bacuna will play at left-back with Bagan on the bench.
Smithies
Osei-Tutu (if fit)
Morrison
Nelson
Bacuna
Pack
Ralls
Vaulks
Wilson
Ojo
Moore
Thoughts?

Re: CARDIFF CITY v AFC BOURNEMOUTH: Match thread
I think it'll be:
Smithies
Osei-tutu Morrison Nelson Bennett
Ralls Vaulks
Ojo Wilson Hoilett
Moore
With Bacuna or Bagan coming in if the fullbacks don't pass a fitness test.
I'd like to see Murphy involved as well, plus any other youngsters on the fringes (harris? D'almeida?) on the bench at least so if the game allows it we at least have the option of giving them a run out.
Bench
Phillips, Murphy, benkovic, bacuna, Bagan, Harris, Tomlin
