Really? I thought he missed opportunities to just run at the defender and definitely was underwhelming. Did more than godden

I thought he looked really lively especially when he first came on. I realise it is fashionable to write this player off but as far as I am concerned he caused Burnley more concern than any of the other strikers that played on Saturday.

I’ll be in the city centre, then a 20 min walk to the stadium.

Thanks for the recommendation

He didn't. He made poor decisions and did a few step overs

He was trying to actually create something, one of the few on the pitch that almost did to be fair. Could potentially be seen as a real asset come later on in the season

But didn't create anything. He isnt good enough in my opinion

Not many players did create anything that game

 

[lordy_87]

Go on then , 3-1 cov

 

[Balli001]

So because nobody else did that makes tavares good enough to start? OK then

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

I never said he was good enough to start, Im just saying he’s not that bad that he’s not good enough full stop like you were for some reason suggesting

Loads in the city centre to choose from, a few pubs in Canton not far away.

Be good to know where the majority are going to be drinking so we can get an atmosphere going?

[Woolly68]

Nearly 2000 of a possible 2200. Sould sell out and the stadium has good acoustics in the away end I read somewhere.

I read it on socials. I saw that also a few days ago. Hope those who were on the fence have now booked!

 

[robbiekeane]

Can’t wait for this, hopefully a bit of a feel good factor around the club and fans will give us a boost

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

2-0 defeat, 2-1 if they forget to put 3 on Gyo

 

[clint van damme]

The 1700 figure is on the offal but was posted on Monday, hopefully sold a few more since then. No POTG.

 

[Matt smith]

Need a win massively come on boys

Do they still try and play long throws from everywhere?

I live near Cardiff and have watched them play about 4 or 5 times this season (I scav tickets off my 2 friends with season tickets) and am in the away end with my lad on Saturday. PUSB!!!

Cardiff have no resemblance to the old McCarthy team. I think only Ng and Ralls remain from last year. They play out from the back, and their keeper has great distribution and is very comfortable on the ball. Kipre is absolutely solid in defence. They have good pace down the wings with the likes of Romeo, Rinhomota, O'Dowda and N'Kounkou.

They look pretty dangerous on the break but have struggled in the last third, with lack of a quality striker being glaringly obvious. Once a counter attack fails, they dont know what to do with it, and there was nobody in the box to win headers etc. They have bought in Robinson which has helped. let hope not too much!

I think this one could be tough, Cardiff are on a ok run. But then again, I dont see them scoring more than 1. Famous last words...

Going by that,we might aswell give them the points now and save the trip.

I remember when we used to try and play like that. Much prefer watching Gyo chase down hopeless long balls

Have you ever thought about a career as a motivational speaker?

Would be a hell of a job trying to motivate this bunch.

 

[pipkin73]

Not sure, but i have it in my head we never win in Wales. I think we might have had a couple of good results last few years, but is that wishful thinking?

I can't think of any except for the 1-0 at Cardiff under Eric Black and the paint pot trophy win against Swansea reserves
