    Can only imagine it was a reaction to how open we were against Charlton.

    Also how many 50/50s did Bogle duck out of when he came on? Shocking player
    Almost as shocking as Madine, how he got applauded off baffles me. Perhaps I don't understand football

    Did you not see the lay off to Bacuna for the goal ? He deserved his applause just for that. We won the game because of it.

    This post just proves how low expectations have dropped when it comes to rating centre forwards at Cardiff City. Yes, it was a great flick by him for the goal and it means people like you finally have something else besides headers to set up goals at Sheffield United and Ipswich and the fact that you don't think he missed a penalty against Wolves because his feeble effort was saved (and, anyway, it was a better missed penalty than Junior Hoilett's a few minutes later ) to try to show that he is worth the £6 million we paid for him nearly two years ago - based on all of the facts, Madine has been an awful signing as three assists and no goal proves.

    I thought he was poor overall last night and that came after what I rated as a promising showing at Charlton where, for a period in the first half in particular, he was a real nuisance to their centrebacks.

    It seemed to me that he mistimed an awful lot of jumps last night and so was nowhere near the ball when it reached him. I will say that anyone who has played up front for City in recent seasons deserves a degree of sympathy because it is a thankless task for most of the time and I applauded Madine when he came off because he's a City player and I did think he put the effort in, but at other clubs there wouldn't be the sort of clutching at straws with him that you are indulging in and I'd have Danny Ward back in the starting line up at Forest at Madine's expense based on his performance last night.

    This is exactly right.

    Its quite clear, you dont understand football. Madine played well last night, should never have been taken off. Great lay off for the goal, and held the ball up well often.
    Not you Bob btw, Joe Gillis response 😉
