    What was Nelson doing? He couldn't get a foot on that? Or at least try?

    It almost looked like he pulled his leg back in the replay.

    Collins. The striker chasing back was right on the lads shoulder before he shot.

    Disappointing. MM is just not a smart game-day coach.

    I agree.

    Was there for us today.

    We need to be better than 43 0ercent pass accuracy. 31 in the final third.

    I appreciate long balls can be effective, I watch man City and Liverpool do it effectively. I think our over reliance on them is going to stifle us though.

    We have better players. We don't need Joe Ralls playing like a scrum half booting the ball into obscurity, I saw him play a decent pass out to Bacuna first half, why they persist with these volleyed hoofs instead of taking the ball down and controlling it before a pass really bothers me.

    I'd be moaning if we won 3 nil, because that type of football over a full season is going to be hard to watch, we have the odd brilliant moment but overall its not going to entertain.

    I think it's a fair result. Barnsley are going to be play-off contenders.

    Is the Leo 'fox in the box' Bacuna experiment now over?

    I like Bacuna - but not as a right back or a second striker. He is a box-to-box midfielder.

    The moment MM was employed, entertainment went out of the window I'm afraid. He's a limited pragmatic coach who can put together a team of battlers but no more than that. If we had deeper pockets and with it more ambition, the time would be right to look further afield but we haven't so be prepared for a load of snoozefests this season.

    Agreed.


    I'm questioning if I made it up in my head but I'm sure Dalman said we were looking for a more attacking style of play with the new manager. Watching the lions now so not going to go hunting for it.

    F*ck me, that’s a step up from baby sitting Where d’you keep ‘em?

    Re: CARDIFF CITY v BARNSLEY. Match thread

    Having just come back I stand by this, both teams looked rusty, it was pretty ugly at times, that’s not our best team. If we play like that after 10 games I’ll be worried but nowhere near worried yet.

    Nice to be back!

    Who was meant to be covering the space Bagan left when they scored? Presumably not Collins who was chasing back so a CM or CB didn't react well at all. Opposition sides going to target Bagan all year so someone needs to be thinking about this.

    Not a huge fan of Bacuna so forward but he was switched on to win us the corner when nothing else was available before our goal.

    Giles was good but hopefully Wintle easing self back into things post injury - not great from his subs appearance.

    1-1 was fair result. We need to be a lot better to get into play-offs.

    Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 1 - 1 BARNSLEY

    Collins played pretty well. He's clearly better suited than Glatzel at playing up front for us. Apart from that, it was the same old story.

    I appreciate your post, we may have been rusty, but the basics and principles of the way he wants us to play are there for all to see, it is possible we get less rusty, but playing how mick wants us to play but being a bit less rusty won't improve the spectacle imo.

    We are no different to a Warnock or Harris team.. I was hoping the new manager was going to be the chance to see us play better football. It obviously isn't.

    Thought that was most encouraging.
    Giles most impressive. Wintle looks as if he’s going to struggle in the championship though.
