MATCH THREAD:" NORTHAMPTON TOWN v CARDIFF CITY " MATCH THREA

Soft penalty. Bamba so easily beaten for the cross. He needs to retire.

Tutu has had nightmare debut. Should have passed to Glatzel for a tap in then gave away a pen. Whole back 5 has been shocking this far particularly Mozza.

Hoilett and Murphy been our best players.

Everything is pretty shit including the ref in this game

Northampton 1 Cardiff City 0

Utter garbage particularly Citys passing and crossing. Playing the game like it's a pre season friendly which it's not. A change of formation and effort second half please.

Very soft but bamba didn't put hands on forward? But city sloppy generally and cant be worse 2nd half....

Wouldn’t disagree with that. Totally outnumbered and outmuscled in midfield atm.

Extra man in midfield needed as at the moment we are not in it.
Some very poor individual performances.

Very poor so far hopefull a better second half

Have to agree. Bamba has past his sell by date. Do we really need to play with three central defenders and two full backs against Norhampton? I thought Harris was supposed to be keen on bringing youngsters on? how does playing Bamba do that would rather have Flint for his scoring power form set pieces. Or if he was serious about bringing on youngsters how about just playing the two usual central defenders and give Almeria a go in midfield.

2 nil Northampton

Shocking. All asleep

Has Warnock actually left? Feels like one of his cup performances. Awful.

Dreadful to watch.....

Rather we lose this than next week.
Nobody takes cups seriously anymore unless they reach the semi finals.
Shame really as I used to love the romance of the cups,unfortunately that has disappeared.

Nowt romantic about losing to Cobblers

Northampton 3 City 0

Get slaughtered and with a strong City team

Embarrassing

Cup or not, this is getting embarrassing now. 3-0.

Ahh well always the fa cup ?

Not just beating us but bullying us, what a f*cking joke. Dont care if its the micky mouse cup, everything about this game is shit.

Well. Let's hope this is an early kick up the arse!

Absolutely shocking. Time to bring all the youngsters on of the bench to teach these lot how to actually play football instead of aimlessly kicking the ball straight to Northamptons defence.

Total embarrassment. How many first teamers in this team? I know its early season but god we have been dreadful.

It is a strong side,that's my only worry.

Let's concentrate on the league

2 men in midfield and no shape at the back with Bamba

Pathetic. Same story every year, get knocked of the cups in embarrassing fashion by lower league clubs. No excuses, absolutely pathetic.

This could be 5 unless NH changes the back 4 , walking through us

It is a strong side,that's my only worry.

Looks like training game from city no urgency just had free kick by halfway line but play it 2 yrds forward ends up 20yrds further into our half!
