MATCH THREAD:" NORTHAMPTON TOWN v CARDIFF CITY " MATCH THREA

It is a strong side,that's my only worry.

Apart from Moore, Tomlin and maybe Ralls this is our best team.

Finally we change this failed formation. Harris should have changed at half time if he really wanted to win this.

Five shots with only one shot on target. No urgency to get up the pitch. I can see why Harris wants an attacking player.

This formation is same as against qpr... we know how that ended..
Dont look like scoring even corners tame and no threat

Playing in totally the wrong system.

Vaulks and NML too.

Should have gone with another in midfield at half time and back 4

Pathetic. Same story every year, get knocked of the cups in embarrassing fashion by lower league clubs. No excuses, absolutely pathetic.

I agree. You can't blame Harris for fielding a weak team it was pretty much full strength given injuries and international call ups it makes you wonder exactly how much strength in depth we have? I am getting a bit worried about the kid from Arsenal he was signed as a right back but it is becoming more and more apparent that he isn't a full back at all. Reading used him as a midfielder winger type and the Arsenal youth set up tried to convert him to right back. When he went to Bochum he started as a right back but they rapidly discovered he wasn't very good there and started using him as a wide midfielder winger type. It's beginning to look like we have signed a right back who can't play right back a bit like Patterson.

In fairness to him city are playing the system that got them hammered 6-0 at QPR not one at end of the season... strong side wrong formation

Hopefully we knock this formation on the head now going into the league. Didn't we lose 6-1 to qpr playing with 3 at the back?

Oh dear
Confidence builder.

Yes no need to play it today

The scum are losing 0-2 too. They are not playing well at all....much like us.

My only consolation is knowing our recent performances in both cups I did not waste £10 paying for our usual rubbish cup performance on I follow. Incidentally I had a look on a Northamptom site and they think they have the weakest squad in league in and went into the match with several first choice players missing through injury. Our players ought to be ashamed of themselves even if the formation was wrong they should have sorted it out on the pitch.

Weve been bullied, out fought and easily beaten today. We have really played it as if were not bothered but given there were so many first team players today we should expect better. So lethargic, error prone and lazy.
Going out of the cup at this stage is a habit over recent years and it doesn't effect the league but I still expect much better than this. Going forward Bamba needs to retire, dont play 5 at the back and Tutu has not earned a starting place yet. Not sure at all about him at all.

Too many players strolled around as if Iin a training game.
Many were just not interested
Not acceptable

Around 7 championship clubs gone out today! ...

doesnt make it any better... i didnt watch it but reading on here it was dire..

NML as well. Murphy is such a weakling as was on display again in this game. Just no fight in him.
