The reply from John Hewitson Facebook was a good and (maybe) valid one... :clap:

We talked about 'a game too far' and 'fatigued players' after the midweek win and so it proved

After a few hours of reflection, for me, I don't think the Bluebirds played any differently today (maybe the big issue in a so-called 'derby' game) but they certainly weren't as effective as the previous four games

Fatigue? Poor team selection/formation? A decent Swansea team? Or a mix all four?

Today it was a mix of the four; but fatigue showed I several players and we've now (likely) lost Keiffer Moore for a couple of weeks at best


As for many posts seen on this and other threads, I said on Thursday that 'Nukes' Harris Poll was premature and the usual suspects haven't let me down

It might have been Swansea but four wins out if five for us was a dream only two weeks ago, so time to get a grip and take stock. I'm sure the players will be embarrassed but will also feel they've run through walls for the manager in that period and even though I still have my doubts on Neil Harris, I cannot fault what their effort, if not the actual result today



Chris,

Probably we were to quick to back Harris again, but I stated then I will state again it’s a results game and Harris or any other manger will only last by their results. Win the next few and it won’t be forgotten the Jacks game but the majority of us will be totally still behind him.

Some managers last longer if they get a report with the fans Warnock had that big time . Harris has not got that .

For Harris now the pressure is massively back in him after yesterday.

I think you only have to list the managers both sides have had to see where the clubs are or want to be.

DJ our manager who has produced best football for years. MM and NW successful in their style and then we've had OGS, Slade, Trollope and Harris.

Rogers and Martinez top table. Laudrop, Sousa even Cooper different level to what we've had. Only real mistake they made was the American.
