Open your eyes Morison, you built a great squad, no scorer, we will end up losing more matches likes this, as we cant take our chances

Bristol City are also skint.

These derby games mean a lot to our fans and yes it hurts to keep losing them.

Who said anyone wants Morison gone??

We are on about this particular game.

After 10-12 games we will have a better picture in which direction we are going, but today, we deserved to lose.


Are fans not allowed their opinions and how they see it??


v WBA they praised massively.


Max Watters is a striker, so yes hes expected to score some goals at least.


Of course every fan is allowed an opinion, i just hate how fickle this whole fan base is. Full of praise after the last 2 games but now all of a sudden it’s doom and gloom and individual players are being attacked (not just on here)

We all hate losing derbys but just keep level headed and trust the process




Well today is doom and gloom as we are all hurting because we really care.


We need a good striker, that is what we are missing badly and We've known this for over 7months.


I agree it’s doom and gloom, and I apologise if I come across as attacking any individual fans. That’s not the case at all, we are all passionate.

We can all see we need an out an out goalscorer. But we have no money, so we need to support what we have and trust Morro. Who would sign if you were morison, annis?

But that's the main problem isn't it? Who would we sign & would they come here. I was just reading that Chelsea & Leeds to name just 2 teams are looking for a striker and they have millions to spend.

I said after WBA game if he doesn't address the way we go forward and the lack of chances we will lose games like wba.... whilst today Bristol were far better the stats are very even which shows prediction not far out... new striker new set up and we will be ok and back on track if morison is brave enough to change mentality of play safety 1st.

We all love our club, I get carried away win or lose and I do take it badly if we lose. Years ago I was much worse lol

Bristol City are not that good and I thought we could of taken something from this game.
If we don’t score we seem to fold when the opposition score.

I actually don’t know who is available now and good striker cost money, we need a Kieffer Moore and if we don’t spend money on a proven striker, all this hard work Morison has done with a very very small budget could go to waste.

Morison and his scouts will know who is out there, over 7 months have gone and we knew we needed one.

Etete is a bit of a gamble, might come good, I hope so.

But you must see Harris and Watters, do their best but for me are not Championship standard.

Win today and everyone loves Morison and the squad, but we lose. Yes it’s a derby, yes we didn’t turn up but everyone grow up, this is the best football cardiff have played in a long time with a progressive manager and players who try to play football. It isn’t going to be perfect every week. I’m as disappointed today as everyone else but why slate individual players? It’s pathetic, support the TEAM ffs

Well said. Watters seems to be the scapegoat every time. Its not as easy as it looks one on one and it was a good save and Harris had an easier chance but his touch let him down. Kipre had a poor second half and was at fault for the second goal giving away a free kick when he should have got to the ball first and then not picking up his man when the cross came in. Yet no one has slagged him out

STEVE MORISON:

"What did I say to them? I told them today 'I'm fed of defending you, you've got to put the ball in the back of the net. That's your job. You get your moments, you have to put the ball in the back of the net'," Morison said of his strikers.

Wrong way around!

It was straight at the keeper. Anyone should've chipped him.

Harris created his chance with the run. That was a good palm by the keeper!

Now you're stretching it. If one should have scored so should both.

I feel we should start Colwill as well. Why he is only starting on the bench is beyond me.

Ralls should be dropped totally. He was been a disaster of late.

I feared that when we went behind we have not got the bottle to bounce back. My fears are proving right.

My hope now is we do not find yourselves in a relegation fight again like last season.


Good post, Watters is bunk and it’s not just this game he’s missed a sitter or an easy chance. How people can still stick up for him is beyond me.

Agree with Colwill also. He needs a few starts now where he can push on.

I predicted an up and down season with a mid to top half of the table finish but I’m confident we won’t be in a relegation battle.

Also agree, even though I've defended Watters umup until now; too many wrong (or lack of) striker runs and doesn't look to be at Championship level

Colwill is going to a class act for the Bluebirds, if he is given the opportunities by the manager :ayatollah:
