Poor, that's on Robins.

Yeah we were far better once o hare and toro came on - it’s a joke o hare isn’t getting game time - his movement off the ball drags their players around

People going on about Josh Bowler, he looked awful. Only player I’d take from that Cardiff team is Collins.

The klopp thing is cringe worthy

Something needs to be done to cut out time wasting. Sub by Cardiff, 30 seconds. Two throws took a combined minute. That's a big chunk of additional time. Shit performance though, no excuse.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Fucking dreadful. So, so pissed off. Can’t believe we’ve let these absolute cloggers do the double over us.

 

[Otis]

Oh well. Chance missed.

Always going to make it difficult for yourselves if you concede two own goals.

Let’s be honest, we were about the same when O’Hare and Torp came on.

We do it all the time. Let's not be bitter.

 

[Sick Boy]

Missed opportunity, have to now get results in games that will be much much harder than this one.

Knowing us we'll probably go and beat Leeds.

 

[Cally Fedora]

One of those days. Preston and Norwich lost. As you were.

 

[Paul Anthony]

Bottled that today. Golden opportunity we've passed up there.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Pathetic.

Only saving grace is both Norwich and Preston lost today.

Up to them to pull off some very big results between now and the end of the season.

Personally, I don’t think we have enough in the tank and this will be a big blow to the team.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Very disappointing, after we scored we dropped off. It was similar to a few other home games we've either lost or drew after being ahead, felt like it was inevitable. It took Robins much too long to take Palmer off, I feel like we've got to play O'Hare in any game where we need to set the tempo at home. He should have come on when Tavares did.

Something wrong their today, a lot of stroppy looking or tired individuals…spirit not as good. Palmer awful, Wright awful, Kitching awful

 

[mark82]

Now must win against Leeds.

 

[Martin180]

Frustrating seeing the Norwich and Preston results , on to the next one

 

[Garlana86]

Kitchen is the April fool.

The Coventry way

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

I’ll be glad to see the back of these Welsh cunts - hate playing them - them, Swansea and Newport

 

[Paxman II]

I had a feeling this could happen today. Lathargic, and we have to shoot ourselves in the foot quite literally with two own goals handing Cardiff a win! Just on the day all the other results went our way so brilliantly. Game in hand and in theory still a point behind Norwich now where a win would have put the playoffs in our own hands.
There will be twist and turns yet but it makes it all the more difficult now. A real annoyance and one Robin's must surely be angry about?

 

[Boicey]

Wonder what Robins has in mind to improve our midfield and defence?????
Neither are good enough.

 

[skyblu3sk]

Didn't think we were terrible considering the only two dangerous things they did were own goals. Fucking gutted though. Got to be honest I didn't think wright was offside or it was incredibly marginal would like to see it back. Feels worse than normal as it was a good chance to pick up some points on those above.

The latter, surely. Tired.

He should have came on instead of Tavares.

 

[Grendel]

Let’s be honest, we were about the same when O’Hare and Torp came on.

We had total possession got crosses in offside goal and other chances. There was far more intensity

 

[Otis]

Yup. Chance missed, but so far (Hull still to play tonight), it's not been too damaging.

Was a great opportunity though.

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

Let’s be honest, we were about the same when O’Hare and Torp came on.

Agreed - O’Hare gave us no more than Palmer in terms of penetrating passes, he ran around a lot and that’s about it.

He was a bit further forward and in the box more, but I think that’s in no small part down to the fact we were a goal down with little time left.

I wouldn't have said lethargic today but some sloppy passing again at the end aggravated me a lot!!!

 

[ptr]

Is what it is. Good job others lost. Really unlucky with two own goals, despite Kitching blasting one in. On to the next.

 

[stevefloyd]

Eccles best player on pitch today.

Eccles passing was pretty poor today but his game apart from that good

 

[Martin180]

Neither are good enough.

Is that based on today or the whole season ?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Strange first own goal
Had enough ball and chances to win at a canter
Torp looked great
How close was the offside

 

[skybluecam]

Let’s be honest, we were about the same when O’Hare and Torp came on.

Subs should’ve been made at 1-1. Instead they come on at 2-1 down, Cardiff have closed ranks and the crowd is angsty.

Palmer could’ve gone off at HT, he was off it and Lati was knackered.

 

[steve101]

Really didn't deserve to lose but needed to manage the game better after taking the lead. There was no need to leave ourselves so exposed. Unfortunately gave the ball away too cheaply too often. Thomas and Kitching have been great this season but today the were both very wasteful and Kitching decision making re clearances were appalling.
The only positive for me was Torp looking really effective when he came on.
Such a wasted opportunity because they didn't really look like scoring.
