That is the most deflating defeat of the season for me.
We had 3 points in our hands, we weren't even playing badly (we just weren't creating enough clear chances for our possession) but we really died a death in that last 20 minutes. Chair and Willock faded out of the game, we started to give the ball away and we didn't even look like getting an equaliser in a game we at one point looked well on top of.
You could see the confidence drain out of the players and the crowd.
That is a big defeat in terms of it's impact more than anything else... I think that saps the belief out of us.
Sat on a train from White City on way home on the northern line
deflated is the only word i can describe my feelings
im actually done for the season and i mean that i expect nothing from any game now after watching that....we were in total control and we threw it away
this was our cahnce to push 2nd for that final time and we get 0 points
first time ive left a game early in my life
the changes were crying out and MW is fully to blame for this
every club does not have bad spells like this
not once not twice but 5 or 6 games we should have won over the last 2 months
if it carries on i can see west Brom overtaking us and we go to mid table
absolute disgrace
we were by far the best team today and i cant say what happened
only a miracle will get us promoted now im scared stiff of playing Luton midweek will struggle to watch it on the TV
Yeah, that sort of defeat brings back a lot of bad memories
Very sad that a fantastic season's worth of form has fallen over two seasons instead of one.
Still plenty to battle for and still the possibility of finding our form again at the end of the season (which lets face it is the best time to find form) but whether we will be in touch with the top six at that point is another question.
nobody saw this happening but it wouldnt have had we had fresh ideas in a new striker or a number 10 we could bring off the bench if Willock or Chair get out of form or ideas
lets face it
thats whats caused this mess
im done
angry yes
but also done
2 years like you say jimjams and this should be the easier bit and weve messed it up cardiff had nothing to play for at all even there fans werent there usual cocky selves today although i wasnt around at the end when the whistle went to witness it
to be at a game like that dunno what percentage of the ball we had but Cardiff didnt look like they had the ball at all wouldnt be suprised if we had 80 per cent of the ball at one stage
Not the afternoon at HQ I was looking for. The first Cardiff goal looked a foul to me from Ellerslie Road. As soon as that’s not given we’re in trouble. Cardiff’s 2 subs changed the game. They pinned us back and we couldn’t play out any more. And with no centre forward we couldn’t play it long either. I know we were short of options but I was surprised that MW took so long to make a change. Promotion push is over in my eyes.
