Not much interest on here last time but it looks like we have sold around 2,000 tickets so very good travelling support. BT is going. I'm not. Ward is out with concussion after last week's knock so our striker choice is pretty much limited to Glatzel and Paterson. Or Bogle. Peltier may come back in. Being assessed today. No other new injuries. Will Harris play our best team or give others like Vaulks and Coxe a run? Especially with 2 league games in the next week. A little cup run would be good for moral and it would be nice to put one over Reading after the stuffing we took up there earlier in the season. We can't play as badly again ......... can we?
Ooohhh, are we in the next round of the cup? Was wondering where the prediction thread was. Full strength or will there be changes?
As we’re not going to be involved in the promotion mix up it’d be good to have a cup run to keep the season interesting. But I expect he’ll rest a few in light of the fact we’ve got 2 games in the space of 4 days next week.
We've actuallly got 3 games in space of 7 days. I'd expect some rotation for that lot. Tough programme but other sides have got similar schedules - we just need to get on with it.
Tomlin I believe is on 8 yellows; he gets one per game so he’s in line for a 2 match ban very soon! Incidentally most of not all his cards are for silly offences save I think a harsh one v PNE. He just can’t help himself
Not much chance of promotion and relegation avoidable, so lets have a go. Trouble is, Reading are in the same boat and they're better than us. I reckon we'll extend our cup run by about 93 minutes. Oh god, how miserable am I?
Glatzel up top with no other strikers on the bench.................. Cardiff City XI: Smithies; Bacuna, Flint, Bamba, Bennett; Vaulks, Ralls; Whyte, Paterson, Murphy; Glatzel Subs: Etheridge, Morrison, Pack, Nelson, Richards, Hoilett, Sang
I have heard it all now. Announcement by announcer there has been racist homophobic chanting by away supporters! Absolute rubbish. Unless he's referring to the usual 'you English b*****s' Whatever next?
And interesting that its the second time in 7 days in games involving Reading. Can't imagine our fans being guilty of that sort of behaviour.
With Ralls off injured, Vaulks is playing a blinder. Probably determined to right the wrongs of his last game at the Madejski. Pack on for Ralls and he's dropped far too deep almost making it 3 at the back. We're giving away the midfield again.
