An unchanged starting XI from Tuesday night's draw with Stoke City!
But 2 Goalies on Bench?
Cardiff are unchanged from the 1-1 draw with Stoke in midweek, hoping to continue that second-half momentum into this game at Bolton today.
It means no Rubin Colwill again, with the playmaker having failed a late fitness test for the trip.

I know we are short on numbers but why do we have 2 gk on the bench again. Surely theres a academy player that could replace 1 of the gk on the bench very strange decision imo.

Need to rely on our midfielders and defenders for some goals then.
Shocking that some are un droppable what incentive does he have to up his game he plays no matter what.

Hopefully after the international break we will have some better luck with injuries!!

So many subs now this really is a non issue.

This is the third away game on a trott with 2 keepers on the bench, this has to stop, the lunatics running the club have to back BBM or get out.

There's not even two registered keepers on the bench for dogshit filled park football today

By putting out 2 keepers? He needs find some words.

It's BBM making a point to the idiots running the club.

Non issue for me the 2 keepers on the bench. Team is so weak that if they replaced one keeper with a on field player that player is not getting on either.
So who really cares.

Can we use 7 subs or 5?

But he’s happy and wants a small squad so that can’t be the case can it?

Do you know why he’s done it? I’m as confused as you on this one!
I’m disappointed that Lawlor hadn’t made the trip, but it’s maybe a journey his injury best not make st this point, and it hopefully keeps him out of the clutches of the international set up until he’s properly prepared
Maybe Charlton next weekend?

I don’t see it as a non issue,I’d rather see a young outfielder on the bench.Makes more footballing sense

Well we don' t want Bellamy injuring him again,
and the keepers well i shall perhaps say something after the game,
but I think we will get our first win today they have more players out injured than we do,
but there squad is bigger and no 2 keepers on there bench but a win today from me. Sh.t .
