Are we setting the bar too low?

Can’t anybody discuss normally on here without chucking insults or derailing? Don’t make me go back to Mikes board ffs!

If you have a point on the subject feel free to put it forward.

is Mikes board really an option ?

me thinks not.

You seem to know a lot about Swansea. I immediately thought this post was a wind up when it first appeared.

The poster and name are a wind-up, Steve Zodiak

Sadly, the individual concerned just can't help himself; even under the current sad conditions the real Cardiff City supporters find themselves going through

Thought as much as soon as I read the OP. No problem with a post about the possibility of setting the bar too low, I have read similar posts on here before. As soon as he compared us to Swansea in a poor light, and knew so many facts about them, it seemed likely that a certain someone had crawled out from under his rock. Have to be one sick individual to troll on this site at this particular time. I expect there are quite a few people who would like to meet this bit of pond life face to face.

Are we setting the bar too low?

With the news reports of us not playing a single player under the age of 22, many responses were that we just want to stay up so can’t risk it. I am a touch disappointed with that view.

We then see losing away to Arsenal being described as fantastic because we managed to get a consolation goal. Don’t get me wrong, no shame in it whatsoever as anything against these teams is a bonus, but a defeat being described this way against teams in our own league is hard to hear.

I know this won’t be popular but how can we get into a position where we can achieve what the Jacks did at this level? We seem to have more financial clout than them as Tan is far richer than Huw the Spew.

They beat Arsenal 6 times ffs!! They also beat Liverpool 5 times and Man United 4 times amongst others like Chelsea multiple times and Man City along the way. So it sticks in the throat when I see us commending the side for scoring a goal in another defeat.

The focus and question should be, how do we get to that level. We have far greater resources so shouldn’t be any excuse, yet we seem genuinely stumped after promotion.

Great post! I feel exactly the same. Now is the time we should be really going for it and keeping our place in the top flight. We pay the big sides far too much respect imo. Fair play to the swans they came up and just kept playing their game. For example if they had josh murphy in their side he would have been playing week in week out with confidence scoring goals and creating chances like routledge and dyer done for the swans but instead we are way to cautious create nothing most games and concede goals in the end and end up losing anyway. I hope we really have a go at teams now and dont go down without a fight.

it did work for them , but they came up and just kept the ball mate, and mostly in the defensive 1/3 rd of the pitch. please do not pretend it was champagne football. had far more to do with clubs taking them lightly and allowing them to do it { which is not the case now with more clubs employing a high press } than them being gung ho.

What on earth are you talking about? You owe me an apology.

Why people are turning a bloody fair post into point scoring using the clubs tragedy is beyond me, I think it’s disgusting however and those that keep doing it need a long hard look at themselves. It was done to that Villa fan on the other thread too.

I know emotions are high but can we keep discussion point on topic and refrain from adding to this nonsense.

Take off whatever chip you have on your shoulder and stop trolling the thread.

If you have nothing constructive to say then move along, stop ruining discussion for everybody.

Thanks mate, nice to have a genuine response instead of snowflakes making up cock and bull stories to justify the fact they can’t respond.

I think you make a fair point with continuity of players. Jacks did have that for sure. We seem scared though and was the same first time around baring the odd game, Fulham away being most memorable. But then we went back into our shell. The attitude we adopt when we get promoted is like we don’t belong here and happy to just have the odd season.

I’d like to see that change but have no idea how we would go about that.

Unlike some, you're not fooled and its protestations alone (and a few other things) give the troll away. You are 100% right when you call it sad

The biggest thing an internet troll has in their favour is their anonymity; it leaves them free to 'claim' things that are patently untrue and hide behind their keyboards. None do it better than this particular troll

Listen, you clearly have some chip on your shoulder. Which part of what I said do you feel is untrue or is trolling then? I can point to some in your posts which is ironic and will happily do so if asked, can you u do the same? I wouldn’t have thought so personally.

There is a thread here, many people chatting about the subject nicely and a handful of people trying to derail it, you included. Look up the word troll and then reference back to this thread and attribute the definition to provable behaviour (not your fantasy tale). The only people trolling on this thread are the likes of yourself, is your real name Sven? If not, does that mean you are on a wind up?

This week of all weeks, cut it out.
