Cardiff v wolves

Didn't realize these were playing tonight,let's hope for a wolves win or we could kick off tomorrow in bottom 3

Guich · Post by **Guich** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 5:27 pm

Don't worry Safron. A draw will keep us out of the bottom three I believe.

And we'll finish above Cardiff and quite possibly Wolves

Don't think some of those Wolves lads will fancy a cold, horrible night getting kicked about down at Cardiff and bombarded by long throws. Bit of ill feeling from last year as well I wouldn't be surprised if Cardiff won tonight.

Wolves playing in white..I hope they're not surrendering already.

Marty Dobson · Post by **Marty Dobson** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 8:18 pm

Obviously not..1 nil to the wanderers.

0-1
Set piece goal conceded again

Adama Traoré is one of those frustrating players, bit like Andre Gray for us. Fast but needs an extra touch which usually results in the ball bouncing off his shins.

Come on Wolves.

I don't want to have to say that too often.

The punt upfield for a quick break was a classic, he peeled off and made space then his first touch took the ball from half way line to the penalty area

Looking at Wolves has me scratching my head in bewilderment at just why were we so poor against them.
Tactics, players not following the plan or a combination of both?

They were a class apart and we rarely got into their half it seemed, let alone the final third.

Huddersfield battered them and now Cardiff, although behind are mixing it all over the pitch and creating chances.

4 Cardiff players in the 6 yard box as well.

JohnMac · Post by **JohnMac** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:27 pm

We are in the bottom 3 if it stays this way

Edit - the lying buggers, we aren't

2-1 Cardiff

Weren't wolves on a good run at the time as well?

2-1 Cardiff... How we beat Cardiff I will never know. Like I said in September we look nailed on for relegation. We look even more nailed on now and our 9 points flatter us

Safron · Post by **Safron** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:38 pm

Remind me of ourselves full of fight not giving up when we got promoted

California Colner · Post by **California Colner** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:39 pm

In the bottom 3 is where we deserve to be at the moment, tomorrow will show what we are made of.

Safron · Post by **Safron** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:40 pm

Maybe that's the problem our players think they are premiership standard and don't have to fight anymore

dougcollins · Post by **dougcollins** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:42 pm

Some say when we hit the bottom three we won't come out.

Safron · Post by **Safron** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:44 pm

Joking aside we only have to be 1 point better off than the bottom 3, weather we can achieve that is a different matter

slw · Post by **slw** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:46 pm

from Europa League to relegation battle in a few months and not one pundit predicted it.

I can't help thinking that the players who earned the club PL status gave more to keep us there.

another result to shut the happy clappers up

.Never read such a load of rubbish. The lads always give there all, the problem is the negative tactics from the bench.
Burnley play like rabbits in head lights and look totally out of there depth at this level.Dyche is sucking the confidence out of the players with his negative tactics.
Footballers need the ball at there feet to express themselves not wack the bugger 100 yds up the field

Safron · Post by **Safron** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:57 pm

Just goes to show when you get 11 players all fighting for each other it doesn't matter how good the opposition is you can get a result fair play Cardiff well deserved

Longsidebogs · Post by **Longsidebogs** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:58 pm

We deserve our league position though to be fair. Some of or players believe they are fit to grace the premier league based on 1 flukey season. They should wake up soon or the majority of our first eleven can kiss goodbye to 40k+ wages forever. Tomorrow will be very telling I feel.

Not good at all . The problem we find ourselves in we need to win at least 3 games on the run to break away from the danger thats providing the teams around us dont also win . For us to win 3 games on the run at the minute looks very tough

warksclaret · Post by **warksclaret** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 9:58 pm

Burnley FC and SD please take note. Forget what other cubs spend on players, forget the fact you don't have a Star 11. When you fight like Cardiff did tonight, or how Huddersfiekld did last week, you can get points and you dont get humiliated.

If you give your all does that not include fight!!

At least you can now add Wolves to the list of relegation candidates. 1 point out of last 6 matches with Chelsea next.

Now we’ve hit bottom 3 sadly I think it’s going to be difficult to get back out and I expect to be there the rest of the season

I fully hope I’m completely wrong though

jrgbfc · Post by **jrgbfc** » Fri Nov 30, 2018 10:03 pm

Even people with the most claret tinted of specs must be starting to doubt whether there are 3 worse teams than us. From what I've seen we are the worst team in the league this year.

Tbf apart from this season so far....we've always had the fight in us under SD.well done colin he's never wavered or the lad at Huddersfield....or their fans.

The quota for Tin Pot clubs in the PL has been exceeded so we have to go down.

They were and very good as well, we on the other hand have maintained a level of poor consistency and not changed our style despite everyone knowing how to stop us playing.
