When we are winning by just I goal with 15 minutes to go, surely we should be making sure the ball is well out of our penalty area, instead of this stupid slow passing of the ball to each other. Not only is it boring, but it is dangerous as it invariably ends up with Trott, who certainly doesn’t live up to his name!! Silly foul by Chambers on the edge of the box though, which led to their equaliser. He had a decent game though.


The team picked by BBM today was a weird one with Kpakio playing left back, Bagan sitting on the bench. Kpakio cannot defend at right back, and should be nowhere near the defence. Why we don’t play him on the wing is puzzling.
Having said all this, the referee was of a poor standard as usual, and how he didn’t give us a penalty for the foul on NG in the first half was unbelievable.



Def 2pts Dropped / No mattter how some are trying to change it

Robinson a passenger by the seems of it and Kpakio getting subbed suggests he wasn't having the best of games either. Strangely 2 positions that most of us are calling for reinforcements in.

Come on BBM, I know you have a lot of faith and loyalty for these boys you work with. I also know you'd take immense satisfaction in finishing the job with only those same boys too. There is still an awful long way to go though, there are tired legs out there and tired brains. It needs freshening up! It needs that little injection to get us over the line.

Make it happen BBM (even if it means you have to lower your standards a bit).



Robinson non existent

I’m very disappointed/ but a few don’t seem to be??

The Ref was terrible, but they are week in week out.

I don’t understand BBM changing today’s team?

Def 2pts thrown away

No but Lincoln can now overtake us next game.


Only if we lose to Rotherham, or draw and Lincoln improve their GD to greater than ours if they win.

Really disappointed with Tanner today.. half the time he was up against a slowish centre back and didn’t get quality into the box or get a shot off. If we go up more quality will be required in those wide positions

Tanner was totally opposite today compared to the Barnsley game

I’ve also noticed Tanner does not manage to have a run of good games

I predict a Plymouth win v Lincoln next week and a resounding win to the Bluebirds 3-0 so all will be good and a 5 point gap again over Lincoln anyway.

In my opinion, though Lincoln were my dark horses, I think they will get overtaken by Bolton

Tanner gave the ball away loads again,if Robinson is leading our line next year then god help us,how the club haven’t invested to just get us over the line with one eye on next year is beyond me,but it’s the Cardiff board we talking about they probs not even planning for next week bunch of jokers :lol:

Lack of investment by Tan could cost us promotion. Playing the same old tired players :banghead:

A disappointing result but as I’ve said elsewhere, I didn’t see the game, so cannot offer an opinion on performance

However, with regard to Callum Robinson, I just want to point out that despite his running stats, he has never been an overly industrious player where the game is involved away from the opposition box, but he has (this season included) produced those goal-scoring moments of magic where it really counts, i.e. in front of goal!

All this had been said on here in the past, even when he’s been our top scorer, so it’s nothing ‘new’, and he will score again to the delight and chorus of the Bluebird faithful :ayatollah:

I really would love this to happen.

Would be shocked though.

We should beat Rotherham though

Robinson def has to go this season and this why he’s hardly played.

Tanner good one game and virtually non existent the next

I'm struggling with illness at the moment so didn't see the game.

Another game undefeated.

But always disappointing to not win a game when we took the lead in the second half.

Most fans think the manager messed up with selection. Should have played the same team as against Barnsley. Maybe he was worried about upsetting Robinson if he did not pick him.

He's rotated the team the entire season. I've always prescribed to if it ain't broke don't fix it but this has been working for us so far.
