    For me I'd agree, I don't know any swans fans personally.

    But there will be many fans between here and Swansea in towns that have decent fan bases for both clubs. It's banter of course but I'd imagine going into work Monday won't be pleasant for them.

    It's a more painful version of the West brom (add in few other similar performances) humiliation, part because its Swansea, part because although we at times don't resort to hoofing we are still extremely limited.

    It's worse than West brom as that was mick picking 5 centre backs and was clear he had lost the plot. That felt more solvable.

    This felt pretty much our best team and our best effort-and that's what we got.

    I felt quite confident before kick off. I thought that, with our pace up front, our intensity when we press, and with Doyle and Drameh linking up so well, we'd make life uncomfortable for them. Instead we had no intensity or pace. We didn't press or tackle. We gave them fluffy dressing gowns to wear, lovely slippers and a pipe and invited them to take over the pitch.

    When I seen the team I thought maybe Davies should have started but at the same time thought maybe Harris could do the work for Davies to come on and stretch the game. Clearly that went out the window with the early goal.

    We just didn’t get it right sadly.

    I was glad to see Harris start. I thought he would run their defence more ragged than Davies, put in the donkey work for Davies and Colwill to profit from.

    However, he never got the chance to run them ragged.

    Doyle was pathetic today, more interested in putting on a hard man act than actually playing football

    We've been shit for a number of years, why should I partially continue to fund players who enjoy lavish lifestyles when they don't give a shit about the club.

    Fans had their toshack moment in the 70s, this is mine.

    I would respectfully suggest that you move to a cheaper part of the ground then. You can get an adult season ticket for around £250 in the Canton or Ninian.

    Bloody hell, there are some toys going miles out of the pram in this thread. I think some people need to grow up.

    Harris is unfortunately not a top half championship striker. He would do better in league one or two. If we have aspirations to challenge the top six then he has to go. Cant hold the ball up or distribute and blindly takes shots when team mates are in better positions.

    I know you’re just trying to be the usual attention seeking and get a bite but after nearly 50 years of following Cardiff city that was one of the worst defeats I’ve witnessed in terms of the performance and against our biggest rivals so I think some “toy throwing” is very much entitled on here.

    4-0 at home to the peg sellers is as bad as it gets. if that does not hurt you then nothing will.

    I couldn't even finish my post match drink. I just wanted to get home.

    it was a farce of a shambles.

    our starting eleven was probably as good as we could have put out. the fact is we were utterly woeful just abut everywhere, except for Drameh

    I sat in my seat very disappointed and upset with the result at the end of the game but also disgusted with the attitude of some of our so called fans who had been shouting abuse at the manager and players for most of the second half and couldn't even be bothered to stay in the ground after 70 minutes. I would suggest that them (and you) take a look at the league table when Morison took over as full manager - we have got 31 points from 22 games since and back in November were in 20th place, three points above the bottom three. We are now 17 points above. That has been achieved with a number of inexperienced academy prospects, a couple of shrewd loans and basically the squad that was here at the beginning of the season and got us in to trouble in the first place. Those are not grounds for calling for the managers head and abuse. Anyone who does that needs to learn to ‘man up’ and take the defeat.

    Taking yesterday's result out of the equation and focusing on season ticket sales I think our club, and every EFL club, needs to consider how easy it is to watch any game legally online provided it doesn't fall between the protected time of 3pm to 5pm Saturday.

    A season ticket option which allows for attending and online viewing would be a good way of maintaining income whilst allowing supporters the choice to travel to the ground or not to watch the game.

    perhaps the shouting was born out of frustration of the inept performance right in front of them. Why do you think fans should not be able to criticise and vent their anger? That's a rather odd position to adopt.

    No, it was a good example of a shambles.

    As you probably well know, there is a big difference between criticising (or showing anger) and shouting vile personal abuse, particularly at young players or the manager. It could finish a young players career before it started. How you you feel if Steve Morison came up to you in the street and shouted vile abuse about you and your family straight in your face ?

Eventually the stewards let anyone with a season-ticket card enter through gate 2, but we were already 1-0 down by the time I got to my seat. This didn't happen in 2018/19 when we had crowds of over 30,000 for pretty much every game.
    I guess it's because people turn up at the last minute.
