MATCH THREA “ CARDIFF CITY v BOLTON WANDERERS " MATCH THREAD

We will.get tbe defence sorted no doubt for me no point passing the ball around there box for 60 mins of the game with nothing to show for it .we nees goals
Since Lincoln teams sit in and do us on the break they are more than happy watching us play around there box while never going in it .last game we were shooting outside the box but got to be something special from there .
Got to involve callum Robinson for me somewhere and sorry to say ruben does nothing just hasn't got a football brain in his head done nothing last few games .
Got to sort out that 10 position why not go through the middle now and then we just dont do it side to side with no end result.
Defence is what it is today but we have to score goals to win the game .
A few tweaks go down the middle play over the top in salech is playing beat the last man and quality at crosses and set pieces and we got a good chance of 3 points.
We are two predictable
Oh and cardiff never do anything easy especially promotion we always loose are final games .
Ill be there today hoping for 3 points

It’s always good to read someone’s so positive about our team and its performances over this season ahead of a big game!

I do agree that swapping Rubin for Joel might be a master stroke today, but who will people have to blame, if it doesn’t work? Seems a few need someone!

Positivity from the crowd will be key today and those attending need to get right behind the team from the off; and sadly, I’ve only properly seen that maintained once (Chelsea) because in the league games our crowd has been generally quiet

I will except parts of the Canton in that!

Our players/team are better than Bolton and we should be aiming for a win and with a vociferous crowd behind them, it could push to within a couple of points of achieving a deserved promotion!

club announced expecting a crowd of over 21,000 today

going for a 2 nil home win

3-1

Agree about this especially Robinson

That starting lineup is a joke. If BBM walked in my living room now I’d grab him by the scruff and shake him and say “WHY ARENT YOU PICKING SALECH?”

Cracking post Joey boy!

Good start by Cardiff

Robertson great shot

30 minutes gone & it's been all City, but as usual lately we've failed to score so far. We need someone to take better corners though.

This is a frustrating watch , our attack play is rubbish , we are dominating yet we are playing exhibition football , stop messing about and put the ball in the net . Simple goal , get to the byline which is a wingers job , smash it in across hard and low . BE MORE DIRECT , it’s DOING MY HEAD IN , what the hell di they do in training ffs

An excellent first half so far doing everything right except score.

And now we have a stop in play for the opposition to have a discussion about what to do next. Teams doing this has really become annoying lately. They seem to have decided that rolling around clutching body parts is fooling the ref every time.

This is massivley fustrating so far 36mins gone bolton have offered nothing but we cant score.

Tanner is NOT a winger

The shooting, hit the target

Tanner is a welsh league player...

Kellyman across goal, Rubin no where near it

Could have been three up easily.
Running 20yds behind play for a sitter from Kelly man’s cross.
Please sub him for his brother.

Really good first half, just missing that goal.

Robertson has been brilliant but should have scored.

Willock causing them loads of issues.

I would take kellyman off when he comes into our half twice he's lost it

Half time and it's still 0-0 despite us having 13 shots (2 on target) to their 0.

Soooooooooooo frustrating & so slow in the build up that Bolton have 11 players behind the ball by the time we get to the area almost every time.

First of all I think that was an excellent first half. Our press and organisation off the ball was excellent and some fantastic attacking play. Only problem there was we have missed too many chances which makes me nervous.

Secondly this goalkeeper going down business has got to be looked at because it literally happens in every game we play as we’re on top and completely halts the momentum.

If we keep this up second half and score I think we could hammer them. However how many times over the years have teams outplayed us under warnock and Malky and we’ve sucker punched them.

Good first half just needed a goal

I agree about the keepers, catch the ball then dive on the floor, it's been a complaint of mine for ages.

You can just see what's coming i feel. Same old chances galore and to row Z or blocked shots . f*cking come on put the ball in the twatting net. Kellyman swap him for god sake give the ball away more than he's had it, he is not a striker I don't care what anyone says even if he played in some u21 shit at some point as one . Fall at his feet and score , anything , something, we need to win

You right, it has to be that slow so our superstar talisman can keep up with play, even then he’s still yards behind the rest.
Everyone can see he’s a hindrance except the guy who picks the team.

I think we continue to generally play good football.
However, in most of recent matches, our players have lost their shooting boots.
I don't think there is a magic formula to this other than keeping up the pressure and do not lose concentration in defence resulting in a Bolton goal, or it becomes an uphill struggle.
Hopefully if we score one, another could soon follow as Bolton will have to seek an equaliser.
No need to panic with the whole of the second half to come.

We must have one of the lowest shots on target rate in the whole football league.. I feel like I have watched this same game on repeat for the last few weeks!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Kellyman makes it 1-0 with a header from a corner.

Keep the concentration in defence and it's game over.
Shooting boots are back on!
