Match Thread Cardiff City - Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 1st Jan (14 Viewers)

I’m literally pointing out stats

 

---

[Chris1987]

Yes against better opposition

So still dross then regardless

 

[Adge]

So so poor. MVE, Saka, Eccles, Sheaf all still on the bus. Miraculous turnaround needed 2nd half.

 

[Saddlebrains]

I think people are a bit too keen to jump on the Dovin train at any opportunity. He's done alright, but really if Cardiff had a bit more killer instinct we would be down by several.

They've had a few moments where the wrong choice has been taken or they just haven't taken the chance. You look at this game and it isn't difficult to see what happened at Portsmouth.

It's an absolute shit show from us so far, let's be honest. We're such a team of pussies. Roll on 2026.

It's more to do with the fact we would be 3 down if one of the other chuckle brothers were in Net

 

[Jamesimus]

Cardiff 0.29 vs our 0.11 btw

Not sure how theirs is so low considering they had a tap in

Yeah their goal looked a pretty straightforward one for sure

 

[TomRad85]

SBT Mission: Have a match thread without Robins point scoring.

Verdict: Impossible.

 

[DrPoolittle]

Possibly worth considering that Sakamoto is finished following his injury.

he was never able to prove himself because he was never given the protection he deserved from officials.

That injury was pretty bad and that sort of injury leaves mental and physical scars

 

[Boicey]

MVE is now the biggest defensive liability. So poor for so long. He needs offloading.
A quality midfielder who can drive us forward is essential.
And i've absolutely had enough of Sheaf ambling around the wrong side of attackers and pointing.
So many bland average players.

 

[Evo1883]

We will win here , but I'd take a point to start the year with something

 

[shmmeee]

Why do you have a weird hard-on for knocking it? Like Tommo with Bassette

I would be surprised if you told me our xG was higher than Cardiff in that half.

0.29 them 0.11 us

 

[Para1140]

Got to be the worst away experience so far this season. Pissing down, only serve shit Carling at the ground and we are shit with no atmosphere at all

 

[Ccfcisparks]

SBT Mission: Have a match thread without Robins point scoring.

Verdict: Impossible.

I mean it’s going to happen when his replacement is serving up this utter shite

 

[TomRad85]

Yeah their goal looked a pretty straightforward one for sure

0.29 chance for one of our strikers. 0.99 for everyone else.

 

[shepardo01]

I get shot down all the time for saying Torp is no good for us or this level. It’s only fair the rest of you shut up.

He was shite Sunday and was lucky to get as long as he did. Was very surprised to see him start today, where he has been shite.

 

[clint van damme]

Frank is getting as much out of this shower of shit as MR did.

The issue isn't the manager. It's the "deck"

We need to have a very busy January transfer window, with plenty of outs, as well as ins!

But... I've been saying for a while now, we need 2 up front, get Sakamoto and Torp off, and bring Allen and Bassette on, and Rapha surely needs a run out, if he can't get game time now he may as well fuck off.

The top 6 deck that hit play off form for over 3 months last season?

There's more to it I reckon.

I reckon 2 loans in will be all the business done

 

[Warwickhunt]

Thomas again did not stop the cross coming in for their goal again, the guy is coasting if you ask me!

 

[PVA]

They were 19th when we played them. Where they are now is irrelevant

No it's the other way round.

It shows they are a good side.

 

[TomRad85]

It's boring mate.

 

[PVA]

He was absolutely all over the place for the goal.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Our Elite Tactician decides that the team that ended the half should start the second

 

[shmmeee]

SBT Mission: Have a match thread without Robins point scoring.

Verdict: Impossible.

Can’t discuss how this manager is doing without comparing it to the last two with the same squad really. Even Carr had more of a positive impact in his time.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

It's boring mate.

The football is yes.

 

[Para1140]

This team as it is are a lower championship side. We just arnt good enough and we all need to realise the years weve had of a close knit team up for the battle playing fast attacking football under Robins is over. This team are shit under a chairman who hasnt a clue

 

[Jamesimus]

Yes there is, Simms has held the ball up and tried to play his teammates in but nobody is making runs and when they do they're fucking it up. Sakamoto, Eccles and Torp are bang out of form and need dropping but we have no options. I'd like to see Norm on WITH Simms as he'd make runs

I can’t see much of a difference in threat, only in playing styles.

For what it’s worth I don’t think Simms has had too bad a half there.

Dived in instead of standing him up

Did you make it to Arnhem 80 btw?

 

[Otis]

I think there is a case here for us to ignore the rules and bring on 7 subs in the second half.

Saka, poor and missing, Sheaf, poor, Eccles, poor, Torp, poor, Rudoni been bang average and then at the back, Thomas and MVE are giving me nightmares.

 

[Evo1883]

It's boring mate.

Not as boring as the performance so far mate

 

[Nick]

No changes.

 

[Evo1883]

Come on city , better 2nd half please , right off my phone till FT

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Along with players like Da Silva, Collins, Sheaf, Simms and any others who have mentally checked out, Claire-Marie Roberts, Aled Williams, Dempster, Delaney need to all be let go. I don't see what value they are bringing to the team.

 

[jto123]

You have to say that if the offer is there for MVE and Sheaf, I’d be keen to take it because this whole squad needs another rebuild.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

No subs so expecting something good from our master tactician with the same line up

 

[TomRad85]

Can’t discuss how this manager is doing without comparing it to the last two with the same squad really. Even Carr had more of a positive impact in his time.

We're higher in the league than when Robins left? Got a few likes though.
