What will the heirachy at Cardiff City think of today's chant by City fans late in the game ?

'We're f*cking shit, we're f*cking shit, we're f*cking shit !! '

The travelling Cardiff fans, who deserve a medal really on a freezing afternoon, summed it up best when they starting singing in the end that their side was rubbish (not their word actually) and they knew it. Gallows humour indeed, but as always that joviality contains a lot of truth.

Hopefully they will listen to what the majority of fans are saying, slade needs to go NOW if he goes now we can start rebuilding again, it's a chore watching us atm I've never felt like that in the 20 odd years I've been going :sladeout:

If that's true and it obviously is then it just goes to show how poisonous our fan base has become.

I understand people get frustrated but we are 9th, 3 points off the play offs and yes we got turned over badly by a side who aside of a local derby defeat are in a tremendous run of form and have been knocking on the door for a few seasons now.

Chanting 'we are shit, we are shit, we are shit' ... lost for words to be honest..whats happened to us?

What a way to inspire your team ?

Today we played against a team of stars which cost a fortune to assemble.

We were clearly 2 nd best, but does anyone really expect us to be at the same level as them ?

On the other hand the singing before the game, started by a group of youngsters was superb and in fairness to those youngsters they hardly stopped.

In contrast Derbyshire fans were poor , out of 28k only a handful sung and the rest only perked up for 5 minutes after the first goal.
Not a lot better than us at our half empty ground

Well done to the youngsters, keep it up. With regards Derby fans I watched Bristol City on sky they took the piss we were quiet it was like a library!! Modern football, away fans is the only atmosphere :thumbup:

In fairness to the youngsters they spent 85 minutes trying to "inspire" the team only to be rewarded by a typically lacklustre, uninspiring, unadventurous, backwards and sideways passing, slow and toothless performance by the team.

Derby a team of stars? :lol: Do me a favour- they were a hard working slightly above average team who quickly worked out that we had no intention of offering any real threat and that once they got into the lead it was only going to be by them making a mistake that we would get back into the game.

Yes Derby fans were poor - again it proves that if you have a decent team and manager you don't need drums or big flags or passionate fans to "inspire" your team to win games.

Our away support has been superb all season and for many seasons gone by. We could have 100,000 nutters screaming fanatical support for the entire 90 minutes and it would make absolutely no difference to the tepid, boring crap being served up on the field at the moment.

I think it's good occassionally to be reminded by the fans when their performance deserves the kind of criticism they received at the end of the game today.

Didn't see Russell come over to acknowledge over 1000 travelling fans today either - probably just as well.

Derby ARE a team of stars, they have spent a fortune in the last 2 seasons, developing a side who were already good.

Once, Bent, Martin,Keogh, Weimann, Shackall are all top players at this level, their wage bill must be eye watering and they are gambling on promotion.

They probably have the strongest squad in the division. They were the preseason bookies favourites to go up and are a form side.
If you think they are 'slightly above average' then your analysis loses all credibility.

I think David's is saying based on today they didn't look like stars but maybe they are on paper. Your right they have gambled, I don't think they will go up. :sladeout:

Did you go to the game today?

They were certainly not a great team today because they did not need to be. Bent never got onto the pitch and Ince was taken off halfway through the second half. They lost to Forest who are absolute shit. History is litttered with teams full of "stars" who have never been promoted or lived up to their potential and just because they are the bookies favourites and have the strongest squad in the division does not mean they should be considered a top team.

We were pre season favourites last season and were considered to have one of the strongest squads in the division - look how it turned out for us.

They were only two places above us before today's game yet they won the game without having to get out of second gear.

The simple truth is that wherever we finish in whatever position in whatever league - our wonderful club is broken from the top down. I''ll support our Bluebirds through thick and thin. But sadly, right now, there it is.

Yes I was at the game today and they outplayed us, because they are a good side.
They froze against Forest, but have won their last 4 in a row. That Forest game was one blip.
Do you know they had won 8 and drawn 2 of their last 10 before that game . They might have been 2 places above us, but that was due to a poor start whilst their £12m of new signings fitted in. They are miles better equipped than us.
In a way its credit to our manager that we are that close on points given the resources available.

They are the leagues form side and it's hardly surprising with the players they have got.


We stifled them a little because one of our strengths is that we are solid and well organised, we also have a top keeper.

I had this same discussion with some fans after Norwich away last year, they were saying Norwich were average after they had murdered us.
Norwich then went on a fantastic run and went up.

I looked at their team sheet and couldn't see how more than 1 maybe 2 of our players would get into their side.

Same today.

Shocking to hear that our fans were chanting that. I think a few people think because we have been challenging for the past few seasons we have some sort of divine right to be up there. The money being plowed into the team has stopped and while Tan is here it will stay that way , people need to accept that we probably aren't going to up there challenging for the next few seasons and at the moment we are a standard mid table championship club , I suggest either they get used to it or f**k off because there is absolutely no place for chants like that.

They murdered us today, kept the ball well, created loads of chances, used the whole width of the pitch ( unlike us ) , passed it well and could have won 4 or 5 nil if it wasn't for us having such an outstanding goalie.

They looked to me the best we've played and I've seen us against all the top sides except Burnley. Brighton were excellent but not sharp in front of goal. Hull and Boro were both 2 nd best in midfield vs us, but both had strong defences and Hull were sharp up front.

They are nailed on top 6 and probably one of 4 sides who will claim the top 2 spots. Derby, Boro, Hull and Burnley.

I'd put Boro as 4 th out of those come May, but too close to call on the other 3, certainly until Ive seen Burnley next week

Re: ' WHAT WILL THE HEIRACHY THINK ? '

Sun Nov 22, 2015 9:06 am

Ccfc were poor. Having spent close to 300 quid on this trip I expect far better than what I saw. I expected us to get no more than a point from this. All I want is a team that gives it all and a manager that has the ability to try and change a game when things are going wrong.

Yesterday there was little pressure when we didn't have the ball. Players didn't compete for 50 50 challenges. Ralls our best player was shoved out wide. When we went behind tactical genius brings on a defensive midfielder for a defensive midfielder. The one game changing player on bench was Kennedy and he wasn't brought on until game was lost.

Slade has done well to steady ship and cut losses. Now the club needs to say thanks but good bye.
