MATCH THREA: " BIRMINGHAM CITY v CARDIFF CITY " MATCH THREAD

Good block by Romeo,

Kaba looks uneasy on this ground, almost lost his footing a few times now

hell it was down as a 8pm kick off

Yeah I just arrived at 11.55 am my time.

brum corner

Still can’t get it past the 1st man

no team standing out at the moment

This sky commentator on the red button needs to decide if he’s commentating or not, he just stops mid sentence and then forgets where he is when he starts talking again

Already think we look really disjointed.
Just hit and hope really.
Still - at least there’s hope.

It’s refreshing to see a striker have a go at anything even if the result is soft and wide, at least he’s showing intent

O dowda newds to be on the wing with 2 tall strikers not left back

Two chances!

Wintle's excellent cross finds Kipre, who can only head back across the face of goal from the byline. It falls to Ng then and his shot from close range is blocked and cleared!

city corner

I said that to my wife just now lol, one of our better attacking players should be sat at left back

Mejbri with a hopeful ball in - collected comfortably by Allsop.

Standard of football from both sides is dreadful…

few chances Kaba losing ball too much trying to do much

Cardiff played well so far, not pretty but tougher

Tactics working so far. Seem to be sending the ball long at every opportunity and we're causing them some problems.

Thought we brought Etete from spurs for £500k???

Commentator just said he’s on loan from spurs

It's like beer belly Sunday pub team football so far

Thought we brought Etete from spurs for £500k???

You is right; commentator is wrong (again)

Not the best football, but City competing

Thought we brought Etete from spurs for £500k???

Commentator just said he’s on loan from spurs

Yes he is our player, not on loan.

Thought so, this commentator is dreadful

foul on etete

Just a little lull in proceedings. It's attritional, to say the least.

A little fright there for Cardiff. Jutkiewicz is found with a neat ball down the line and his cross almost finds Hogan, but Cardiff manage to clear through Romeo.

Sabri telling Etete and Wintle who they’re meant to be marking and nice to see the players actually move to where they’re meant to be

Good from Etete. Found with a long ball (as per) and manages to dance his way into the box before Blues clear into the stands.

good run by etete good skill
corner tp city

Birmingham were just given consecutive throw-ins and goal kicks, both of which I am convinced should have been Cardiff ball.
