FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 3 NORWICH CITY: Match thread

[North Cardiff Blue]

Re: CARDIFF CITY v NORWICH CITY: Match thread

What a turnaround in home form compared with recent seasons.

Yes, it's amazing, although strangely we've been playing the weaker teams at home and the stronger teams away.

The football bus goes from Wood Street, drops you right by Fred

Never tried the bus. What are the queues like to get back after the game? I get the train from Newport to Cardiff and then usually one to Grangetown and walk from there (10 to 12 minutes). On the way back I try to get the train from Ninian Park, but am not always allowed up to the platform. The problem with Ninian Park after a 3pm game is that the train is usually a 2 car set and they restrict the number of people who are allowed up onto the platform. Last week (Bristol City game) another train (to Penarth) was diverted through NNP and so more were allowed up and I got on straight away.

Night games seem to be less of a problem because a larger train from Milford Haven stops at NNP.

No queues really, usually two double deckers by Fred’s statue, everyone just piles on. A Godsend with these unpredictable showers we’re having lately, don’t want to chance walking any distance.

Thanks. Will probably try it on Saturday. Need to get my old gits bus pass to save having to pay for the bus.

That’s another plus, with the bus pass costs bugger all to get to and from the ground from home.

Have to go for City win, though these sort of games where we are expected to win make me nervous.

Be interesting to see if Colwill or Etete start. I suspect the manager will not change a winning team.

This has the makings of a proper banana skin.

2-0 Norwich.

I'd normally agree with you. Just the sort of game we'd lose. I'm hoping Bulut's team will have more about them though. I think they know they can't afford to underperform if they want to keep their place.

Just need to score first and watch them crumble away, can’t believe they stuck by Wagner this week……

If true wonder if Adams comes in ahead of Romeo

You were right, Romeo steps in which I’m pleased about. Didn’t like Adam’s at right back.
