Anyone else think we will get relegated

Sun Nov 10, 2013 3:42 pm

As much as I love malky the tactics are way to negative putting everyone behind the ball hoping to try and get a point isn't going to work we need to create more opportunities otherwise were going down

To a point I can understand malkys tactics yesterday,villa away to me was one of the games I didn't think we gain any points,but considering how poor they have been and the team they played a point was the least we should have taken,I'm all for being defensive especially away from home,but malky uses these tactics at home,if we don't create chances we simply ain't going to score,and drawing games won't be enough

If we.don't sign a decent winger and a striker or the danish tank is a.hit we will struggle ,we have nothing up front

I think we will go down but then I'm not too bothered either. I'd rather compete in a league and win games than be cannon fodder for the elite. I'm enjoying the PL so far but once the novelty wears off I can't see me getting too excited over it.

That's just me though :thumbup:

Give me the championship,at least its competitive,the premiership is three leagues in itself,waited all my life to see cardiff reach the top flight,now bored already,rip off prices,refs favouring the big sides,cheating players,the list goes on

No. I don't think we will be relegated!

Even tho we have had a good start I think we will be relegated, if we get an injury or three we are well and truly fukt! I also enjoy the championship, the prem is a rip off and over rated, I also enjoy going to the older grounds the banter with the away fans is better

So true. Its cheaper and better. The Premier League is the hell of football. It sold itself for the corporate dream and its trying to take every club with it. I'd much rather go up Newport for the rivalry and banter with them, have a drink in the pub, pay less and have a good sing on the terraces and so on. Its much better.

Thats why I dont care if we fall down the leagues. Back in blue, trip to Newport and good old times.

We need Bonner and Boland back ASAP.

Too early yet, ask the same question after the middle of January once we have played some of the top teams and I will give you an answer, but we need to take points off teams like Southampton and west brow over the xmas period :ayatollah:

me too. i miss the championship. but only if the jacks get relegated too. i only really cared about promotion once they went up.

I've always felt we'd get relegated, just enjoy the good moments, game V Jacks, v Man City and don't get too low the rest of the time. Being in the Prem changes your club most seem to come back certainly clubs Cardiff's size so it's not all doom and gloom if we go down. Would prefer to see the club developing off the pitch but that's been a bit hit and miss.

Malky has always been negative and it's too the detriment of Campbell, Odemwingie and Maynard have no hope in a system where they get no support. Cornelius would be an improvement if he can hold the ball up.

Dec for me is a key month with those 2 back to back home games at the end of the month,along with the WBA game at home.
I still say we will stay up,even if our next 2 home games look tough on paper ;)

If we focus on home games and nick a few away wins we'll be fine. :ayatollah: :malky:

Nope. If Malky gets sacked or leaves, then yes.

Or it could be a Southhampton scenario where it's actually benefited them.

Doubt it. Southampton had a very experienced manager to replace Adkins... Tan will probably have a Gardner to go along with the decorator !

Ponchettino has been a manager since 2010, managing Espanyol for 2 and a bit seasons before Southampton. Hardly very experienced.

Unless we get rid of the manger we will go down.Appalling business keeping Bellamy and not getting in some goalscorers.On the plus side,much rather play in the Championship with Saturday football.

He also did very well there & was highly regarded. He's also vastly experienced compared to Tan's last appointment. :thumbup:

Thats not what you said. You claimed he was highly experienced.....you made no comparison. He is not highly experienced. Thanks for reading.

I think Malky will keep us up, I dont think it will be pretty but he will do it but then again IMO he should having spend a good amount of money and I would think our wage bill is pretty big when you think of the wages going on players who cant even get near the match day squad.
