If Cardiff had put in a performance of that level against a Napoli I'd be very proud even if Cardiff lost the second leg.

I can quite categorically tell you that no Swansea fan and probably no Swansea player will look back at tonight and "rue" anything, regardless of the result in Italy.

Superb performance, superb result, superb night for Welsh sport.


I'd disagree. Three jacks have already text or spoken to me and said they are worried that Swansea may regret not scoring after such a dominant performance.


Its a generic response usually used to show one teams dominance over the other. If you actually asked them which chances are they regretting, they would be hard pushed to find one.

The opening sentence of the BBC report says it all..

"Swansea City were denied victory by fine goalkeeping as they were held to a goalless draw by Napoli in the round of 32 first leg."

yes we were dominant, yes we created the better chances but "should" we have scored any of them - im not so sure. None in which I will look back in a weeks time regretting thats for sure. To regret anything about tonight would just be silly. It was not poor finishing that didnt allow us to score.

Yep, as I've already told you. There is a reason Ashley Williams hasn't scored for years.

If he had 10 of those chances he probably would score 1 or 2 times. So to regret not scoring would be ludicrous considering the end result of the chance is what the end result would be far more often than not. Nothing out of the ordinary occurred as the result of that chance - so to "rue" it would be lunacy.

I feel you are being a little obtuse :roll:

Wow. :shock: you really are blinded aren't you by your opinion.

Yes you're right Roathy, I take back everything I said.

It's not about regretting the chances you did make... It's about generally regretting not scoring a goal, which the performance deserved.

I'm sat next to one right now, who says a performance like that deserved a goal and Swansea may regret not scoring next week, where it will be much tougher.

Im not blinded at all :lol:

Why would I regret us not scoring if I didnt expect us to take any chance we had. As I said, lunacy.

By your opinion, every game you don't win can be rued as long as you have a shot. :lol:

"If only it flew into the top corner every time i shot we would win the league" :lol:

I dont think you can regret not scoring a goal from a chance you didnt even make. Its an absurd notion.

The performance was excellent and had Pepe Raina had an off day or whatever the other keepers name was had an off day then we would have won more often than not.

However we didnt do anything particularly wrong in the final third and I cant pin point a chance to where i feel we should have scored but didnt so to regret it would just be futile.

Of course it could be.

If we had missed an open goal or fluffed a one on one and I said "we wont regret" it - then I would be wrong - as we would have been "expected" to score in that situation.

However saying we wont regret our chances in this game cant be any other way that correct, I agree. Its a ridiculous notion.

Just in from work .. Hadn't followed any of the games tonight but I had this down as a heavy defeat for the home side.

Reading the reports I couldn't of been further away from the truth.

Don't particularly care for them but only want them to fail when the play us. Anyone else is irrelevant.

Great result for them.

Don't understand his point to be honest.

My sig says
We Hate Swansea City, We Hate Newport too (they're shite)
We Are Cardiff City,We will always be blue.

We Are Cardiff City,We will always be blue.


And he had highlighted the comment I made
dont particularly care for them


How is that a contradiction?

Re: ITV comms

Fri Feb 21, 2014 8:37 am

You said you don't care for them, yet you have a sig dedicated to how much you. Hate them... :laughing6:

If you don't care for a club, that means you have no real feelings at all for them, yet you have dedicated a signature to how much you hate them... :thumbup:

Just a bit of a contradiction. :laughing6:
