No Harris, Colwill or Davies in the under 21s today, Bagan starts as does Nyakuwha after his hat trick against the jacks. Couple of interesting names on the bench, James Crole, who hasn’t got a great deal of game time in his loan spell and Cian Ashford after months out, presumably with injury.
Crole was sent back !!
Hes a very opinionated young man who cant help himself sometimes
After an argument with the Torquay manager he was shown the door.
Not exactly what hed want on his CV so early in his career 🫣
0-0 at half time, City the better team, but little to show for it by way of chances - Antwi forced the keeper into a good save, Zimba lacked conviction in a one on one with the keeper and Pritchard had a shot cleared off the line which then bounced off the crossbar. Charlton had the ball in the net, but it was disallowed for offside - looked a close call mind.
Zimba will be having nightmares on that one on one with the keeper 🫣
As Im typing Charlton score 😕⚽️
1-0 to Charlton, hopeless second half by City - Charlton have stepped it up and we have no answer.
Charltons no15 should have scored first
He fired over the bar from four yards out 🫣
Surely a header would have been the better option?
That was a mad final few minutes.
0 - 2 (but very nearly 1 - 1)
Finished 2-0 - yet another boring afternoon in this boring season spent watching boring Cardiff City making the scoring of a goal look impossible. Good to see Cian Ashford back and providing the odd touch of class amongst all of the humdrum stuff. Ashford’s shot against the post in added time was City’s best moment, Crole somehow failed to put away the rebound and then Charlton broke away and made the game safe within another ten seconds.
I only seen a bit but Zimba seems to chase with such little conviction, almost like a token gesture.
With all our striker issues I wondered from the start of the season why he wasn't in and around the squad, I realise loan was a good opportunity for him but since January I wonder if it may have been worthwhile him being in and around the team, who knows what he may do if given the opportunity.
