FT: CARDIFF CITY 1 - 0 NORWICH CITY. Match thread

[MacAdder]

Total exasperation with that ref. Short of putting on Sparkey's shirt; how much more pulling did he have to put up with? And then he gives a Norwich free kick. Definately not fit to ref.

If there is one thing Mark Harris needs to do it's toughen up and get a bit more streetwise.

There was also another instance, a blatant push where he was shielding the ball facing the grandstand which had enough force that he hit the deck.
He got straight back up when winning the FK was the much better option.

He has talent, got himself in a good position at a decent level including full Welsh caps but now he needs to step it up.

Lovely stuff, well done Steve! Wintle was excellent as was Collins, O'Dowda was bright aswell

Harris - Never seen a man fouled so much but not get a free kick! At one point he was penalised for being pulled to the floor!

If Morison can pull this off and make us competitive on a budget of zero then hats off to the bloke

I agree with you here. Too often he’ll still look like an U23 who’s getting his first chance. Looking at Bothroyd before KO he looked like he could have still played for us this afternoon and scored.

Hadn't realised they hit the crossbar until watching that. All I saw was the embarrassing attempt directly after!

I think last season has ruined us so much that we are now easily pleased by any attempt to pass and play.

Wasn't too much to get off the seat for and yet it felt a million times better than last season.

More control, calmer with the ball, more movement. It's a good start that was badly needed.

Really like the midfield and Kipre and Collins looked excellent.

Going forward as it stands we will struggle as we all know.

Norwich were meh. Spent more time falling over themselves than trying to play.

Bloody hell, I was just starting to get excited.��
