" GETTING SACKED IN THE MORNING "

My View/Opinion

Cardiff City 2 Watford 4

Crowd 22,207

CardiffCity: Marshall, Brayford, John, Ecuele Manga, Morrison, Adeyemi, Gunnarsson, Whittingham, Noone, Le Fondre, Jones.

CardiffCity subs: Moore, Fabio, Connolly, Turner, Macheda, Ralls, Harris.

Cardiff City had not won in the league since 29th November 2014,gaining only 2pts from 12pts and today was about to get worse for the Cardiff faithful.

Cardiff City Fans in their thousands sang during the game to Russell Slade " Your getting sacked in the morning " and " You don't know what your doing " :shock:

Is it really Slades fault?

Would it matter if Tan sacked him? Tan appointed him,what would his next puppet manager be like?

Tan,never allowed Slade his own coaching staff.

But I will say this,Watford I believe had 78% of the possession,once again a team dominating us.

We have no leader on the pitch,no players with character, But Tan made sure all of them left our club and yes thats exactly what we had under Malky Mackay and its needed now ASAP :thumbright:

The stadium felt like a grave yard today,right up till 19mins and guess what? 27seconnds as City fans raised their Blue Scarf's
Le Fondre headed the ball in, 1-0 Cardiff :thumbright: , yet most City fans just continued to sing " We are Cardiff City,We will Always be Blue " for what seamed the longest one yet :thumbright: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf:

It had not been all City by the way, Marshall had to save over the bar in the 2nd minute,but we had looked like we would give Watford a game,Noone had a shot wide and Le Fondre had an effortless shot saved by Watfords goalie,created thanks to the hard work by Kenwyne Jones.

City's players were all soon about to drop their heads and virtually give the game to Watford as Watford missed an open goal in the 41st minute and within 30 seconds scored 1-1 :shock:

I looked at our team and the Cardiff players just looked like they had already given up :shock: :shock:

In the 45th Minute as City looked asleep, Watford made it 1-2 :shock: :shock:

Half time 1-2

The second half for me, it looked like Watford just played neat/good football and used us for a training session :cry:
We had no shape and no desire.


in the 60th minute Slade made a double subs Gunnarson(injured) and Adeyemi off, bringing on Ralls and Kadeem Harris.

But it made no difference,City were not closing Watford down,Watford were all over City.

76th minute Le Fondre was replaced by Macheda.

Watford then made it 1-3 with a stunning goal, then minutes later wrapped it up by making it 1-4 :cry: :shock: :shock:

Kenwyne Jones scored in the 92nd minute to make it 2-4 :ayatollah: but we were already well beaten and deserved to loose.

With seconds to go David Marshall saved with his legs.

I stayed till all the players left the pitch to a chorus of boos from the City fans.

At this rate,we might have to start worrying about relegation :shock: :shock:

Am I worried? Very very worried.

My man of the match: NONE OF THEM/PLAYERS/MANAGER & COACHES YOUVE ALL LET THE CITY FAITHFUL DOWN :evil:



Up next Colchester this Friday in the FA CUP, City fans will be glad of the break from the league games :thumbright: :bluescarf:

Vincent Tan needs us to be in the premiership to recoup as much as his investment as he can!!!!
This is a DEFINING MOMENT IN OUR CLUBS HISTORY, if Slade is still in charge for the FA CUP game then we are heading down, but if we have a new manager or one in the pipeline I think it could be turned around.

Tan does need us to return this season,but 100% NO CHANCE & ITS ACTUALLY TANS FALT.

very poor performance. very few positives to take out of that.

i have backed slade, i feel for him as he is not being judged purely on football, which should be the case. he must sort out the tactics as we just hoofed it up to jones time and time again.

i can't see slade getting sacked unless we start to threaten relegation, which i don't think will happen. slade is tans appointment and thus will be cut more slack than usual.

Slade is inept at best.

Re: MY VIEW: RUSSELL SLADE " GETTING SACKED IN THE MORNING "

Sun Dec 28, 2014 6:50 pm

Forget background politics, judge Slade on what is on the pitch, and quite frankly what is on the pitch isn't good enough. Our midfield had no idea where they were meant to be today, our defenders played too deep and he never fixed it, and he again waited far too long to try and change it up.

I've honestly given up on him. The football is worse than it was under Ole, I honestly believe that. And the players look like they want f**k all to do with Slade despite what they are saying in interviews

Im Glad

Bad play will get rid of plastic fans. That means empty seats within the boycott still believe it should have been done alot earlier.

Slades tactics are awful,but Tan must take most of the blame,never even allowed Slade his own Coaches :shock:

At this moment Yes,but I dont want too.

Is it Slades fault. If course it is. He took the job on has a yes man to Tan.He should take the shit when it's going wrong. The players are not playing for him and he hasn't a clue how to change the game when plan A fails.

Slate is Tans muppet and should be shown no respect

Of course I blame Slade for the tactics etc,but Tan is our major problem as he will never employ a manager who stands up for himself,he hated Malky for that.

Slade has to take the blame today.. Set us up for that.. I and many others predicted this . Heads were down, collection of individuals , no leader, no work rate, no one playing for each other or working as a team.. In my opinion he's lost the dressing room already, hence the exodus of quality players.... I don't what him to have a transfer window and bring in cox from orient or a left back from millwall. Shows he lacks ambition and is trying to find players to suit his ageing formation. We will get a derby game again under slade, but it won't Swansea it will be Newport county!

Taking adeyemi off today was a shocker of a decision. He was working his socks off on his own trying to cover for the lacklustre and awful whittingham.
