FT: NOTTINGHAM FOREST 1 - 0 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

[UNDERHILL1927]

I think that people like him as he always give it a go and he seems like a decent chap who we are all desperate to do well.

That doesn’t make him good enough though :-(

Yeah similar to the Eddie Johnson love in but not quite as intense haha. When Eddie eventually scored it was one of my fondest memories as a Cardiff fan.

It’s been virtual one way traffic towards the Forest goal this half, but, apart from a shot from a free kick by Wilson deflected 8nto the side netting by the wall, there’s been nothing to suggest City might score.

[Bobby Dandruff]

Yep, you've got me. Neil Harris clearly wasn't exaggerating in order to try and boost the confidence of a player struggling to find form who is having to play because our first choice striker was injured.

Honestly, what are you expecting "yeah, Rob's shit but I've got to play him"?

A bit of honestly, perspective, and realism without any David Brentisms is surely not too much to ask for?

So you want our manager to call the players shit in his press conferences?

If he had done you'd have been on here complaining he's a rubbish man manager who's lost the dressing room

[valleys caveman]

Ojo on for Murphy

[billy.ronson]

Commentator just said “it’s all a bit ponderous from Cardiff “ .......

[valleys caveman]

Harris on for Pack

Just read my post. The clues are in there.

Harris is gonna score a Blakey v Man City special

Maybe he is one of the better finishers he has worked with though.

A shame that perhaps other parts of his game are lacking.

I don't think many strikers would excel for us, Moore has at times done well but in other matches looks equally as lost, just that he can actually attack the ball far better and we do put in some decent corners usually.

Today we have had plenty of opportunities for a good ball into the box, 90% of which even Moore would have struggled to get near.

Also Chris Houghton looks suspiciously like Gus Fring

FT 1-0

[BlueArmy 86]

Glatzel gets zero service to be fair

We need a right back and a creative midfielder desperately

Where the **** is Tomlin

[tforturton]

Dreadful. We never even looked like scoring.

[NYCBlue]

What a waste of time.

Concentrate on the league, great group of lads, unlucky today etc etc etc

And now we miss out on the excitement of being in the fourth round draw (and the fifth round draw which is taking place at the same time).

Why, as a grown man that should bother me I don't know. But it does.

I'm with you on that Mike, always something I really look forward to.

I know what you mean but I’m not too bothered this season. It was important for Cardiff to win today as your season now looks like petering out. We had that sort of season last year where it’s all a bit dull. You were due a quiet season and this time around when we can’t attend matches is probably the best time to have one of those quiet seasons.

My thoughts are that we need a new manager soon, to enable him to take a good look at the playing staff, the way we play etc., before trying to change some of the staff/style in the summer.
This season is already over so hanging onto Harris to the end makes little sense.

In these shite times we’re looking for anything to spice up our life, it annoys me more than bothers me after watching that though.

[blue lewj]

Well that was fun.

A shot on target every 30 minutes of football and no goals again.

Harris is gutted no doubt and will say we lost concentration for the goal and could have done better at the other end with our chances. Probably something among the cliches about not being able to fault the effort of his players.

On to Norwich.

[LeningradCowboy]

60% possession, 15 attempts at goal, and we never looked like scoring.
