Match Day Thread Cardiff City vs Norwich City, Sat Jan 16th, 15:00 hrs

Red

 

I do like opposition red cards

 

Two yellow for Pack. Deserved it.

 

Give Argos a little run out

 

I think it was a straight red for the 2and challenge

 

The young Polish International enters for Super Mario

 

A lot of kicking but it is annoying how we became too defensive IMO

 

Gorgeous passing

 

Refs lost control of the game

 

Fair enough Mr Lisbon, your nervousness was fully justified after seeing that 2nd half. It looked so comfortable at half-time and I had no worries about Cardiff giving us any trouble - but this is the Norwich way it seems.

 

COYY

 

Seems like a similar game to the match against Coventry. Got a quick start and then seemed to lose their way in second half. Still another 2 -1 win and on we go.
At home to Bristol City on Wednesday. Another 2 - 1? Just need Swansea to lose or draw away to Barnsley

 

I take no pleasure in being right, and I had told myself that if I was proved wrong, I would change my nick to Nervous Nellie as a punishment! Seriously, we have won 15 games so far this season and except for Bristol City away and Cardiff at home, I cannot remember a game where I wasn't ****ting myself at the end.

 

Bournemouth loose

 

Really silly decision making in the second half.

We have a three v two, Buendia has bust his nut and is clean through and yet we decide to try and play it to the corner when there is still five minutes to go. I don’t mind playing it in the corner in the last minute or two, but you cannot keep it there for any longer. A golden opportunity missed.

Our problem was being too defensive and allowing Cardiff to build confidence. When you’re two goals up from that early on, you then have to starve the opposition of the ball. Not play defensively.

 

Worth seeking out the red card, shocking decision. Good slice of luck for us though. 8 points clear of them.

Swansea have a tough trip to Barnsley later, Brentford have games in hand, but I think we're a minimum of 4 points clear of third.

 

Just looking at the table now and the top seven. An xtra thing we could do with is cutting down the goals against column in comparison with the others

 

Oh how tragic

Title race between Norwich & Swansea I reckon. It would be good for the Swans to go back up - I like the way they play

 

50 points in 24 games @stats

 

I'm delighted, of course, but I feel a bit for Bournemouth. At least they try to play football, unlike Watford.
