MATCH THREAD: CARDIFF CITY v LINCOLN CITY " MATCH THREAD

It's a clash of styles tomorrow. We have the best possession stats in the league whilst Lincoln are rock bottom of that so we know what's coming.

It reminds me alot of us and Wolves in the championship, the football team went on to win the league that year and I think the same will happen in this league.

We will have to be patient tomorrow, they are obviously well organised and well drilled.

No snobbery from me they obviously play to their strengths and have been battering teams like we have but in a different way and fully deserved to be where they are.

As long as we stay switched on for the full 90 we should win, the first goal is massive tomorrow if they get it I fear we'll go chasing it eg Bradford at home and Plymouth away if we get it the flood gates could open.

Obviously I'm hoping for the latter and normally when sides go on a long unbeaten run they get a hiding when it comes to an end let's hope that's tomorrow.

Weirdly, I'm not that nervous about tomorrow.

Yeah, it's a big game in terms of the title. But not in terms of promotion, because we're both in such a strong position on that front.

For those reasons, it could make for a better game because it's not as high risk.

But will be great to see the two best teams in the league go head to head and hopefully we can get the win in front of a big crowd.

Same here, Ned. I’m looking forward to an interesting game of chess between two teams with totally opposite styles

I believe we are the better team overall but I respect the resilience and momentum Lincoln have gathered in recent months

I think Lincoln will ‘get stuck in’ from the start but the result won’t define the season for either club, so like you, I’m relaxed and listening to BBM’s pre-match interview, I think he’ll have his players focused on playing to their own strengths, in which case we’ll have the edge!

I get it, barring a major collapse we are both promoted which I would've snapped your hand off at the start of the season.

However I personally would be gutted if we don't win the league after the football we have played this season this team deserves to be champions I hope we show why tomorrow.

Purely a gut feeling, but after that dominant win over Doncaster last week, I like our chances to squeak this one out. 2-1 victory for the Bluebirds is my prediction. Hope we get it done! Let's go!!!

In what game is that not a yellow!! These officials

30 minutes gone & not much in the way of goalmouth action yet.

Lincoln playing Warnock ball, I can't hate it cos it got us promoted. They're very well drilled. We need to play the offside trap for the throwings to try and handle them!

Some good sustained pressure by Cardiff

A delay after the Imps defender is hit full in the face from Rubin’s free kick and the game goes on, only fir a rash challenge on Wintle gives away a free kick in our own half

We’ve done okay so far and there’s more to come from us

LATEST SCORE: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 0 LINCOLN CITY (43 mins)

Lincoln player falls over holding his head while we have the ball, ref blows (rightly) BUT then gives the ball to Lincoln on the restart.

RIDICULOUS

Should players just fall over holding their heads now when defending?

Possible the worst’dive’ I’ve ever seen from the Imp player!

He’s booked out of embarrassment, and rightly so!

The Imps take it to us for the last few moments before the half-time whistle is blown

HALF-TIME SCORE: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 0 LINCOLN CITY (45+2 mins)

Decent half we grew into. Tanner looks lost on the left you can tell he prefers to play on the right and cut in. However decent game and they look dangerous from long throws and we look good when we move the ball forwards quickly. Reckon our subs will be important. Willock and Ashford could come on and have an impact for us

It’s like playing against cardiff under warnock

Think we edge it in the second half.
Like to see Rubin pulled off at half time, needs to take a leaf from his brother Rubin’s slows it all down sideways at best mostly backwards.

Watch him score a worldly now. lol.

A very tight game, could go either way.

GOAL! LINCOLN!

A good start to the second half is thwarted by an opportunistic goal for the Imps after a tussle for a through ball

A composed finish from the Imps player to be fair

Osho the accident waiting to happen. Such a poor goal to concede. Changes needed. Game not done.

and Lincoln take the lead with a quick break & a goal, they've done their homework & will no doubt set out to frustrate us now.

Another mistake from Tanner giving the ball away in a one on one situation. Trott should have done better tho. Let's stop tip tap passing about and get the ball in the box. Very frustrating Still time to win this.

That wasn't Tanner's fault it was Osho that cost us.

Yes, which started with Tanner losing the ball again. Osho has always been prone to mistakes.

You would blame Tanner if he wasn't even playing. What did he do to you?

It would be nice to see, a centre forward on the pitch
