MATCH THREAD: " STOKE CITY v CARDIFF CITY " MATCH THREAD

Campbell is ripping poor Joe Bennett to shreds at the moment.

Constant long balls smithies nothing down the wings stoke defence handling everything in the air

Nothing being created at all...its back to the crap we were dished up before...Second halfgot to be better

Look a bit disjointed at the moment. No service to Moore and our main threat looks to be from the long throw. Not won in nine matches when we have conceded first. Bad feeling about this one.

Cardiff need to urgently up their game

Need to change tactics from the long balls, no service for Moore atm, don't look like scoring. Changes required.

Ojo has been one of the few bright sparks going forward at the moment. Weaves his way down the left and pings in a deep cross to the far post.

Sad to say Stoke deserve their h/t lead

This is really poor.
When a decent team is decimated by injuries you just have to take advantage.
Stoke are garbage & Neil has to have a few choice words at half time.

We have been asleep in this half.

Stoke 1 Cardiff 0 H/T

Stoke the better team, Campbell tore us apart, well Bennett.

Look totally jaded.Too many games quickly maybe. Stoke equally look poor. Have to freshen up with subs and just go again. Vauks and Ralls awful. Point is there for us if we can up our tempo and play with width.

Terrible first half performance from us.

We haven't even looked like threatening the Stoke goal.

Massive improvement needed in the second half.

Everyones got the same amount of games and Stoke are fielding a very weaken team.

We are letting them dictate the game.

All kicking off at PSG game. Both teams walked off due to ‘racist ‘ referee.

Need a much better second half. Very poor going forward

All kicking off at PSG game. Both teams walked off due to ‘racist ‘ referee.

The Champions League clash between Paris Saint-Germain and Istanbul Basaksehir descended into chaos on Tuesday night after both sets of players walked off amid allegations of racism by the fourth official, Sebastian Coltescu. The match was suspended midway through the first half.

Stoke want it more up to 2nd in the table with a reserve team arris needs to start shouting again

This is clearly a game where the long throw and the high ball upfield will yield zero result. YET WE STILL DO IT!

This is very poor, Stoke are awful and we'll need to play through them to get something out of tonight.

I'd take off Harris and revert to 451, bring on Murphy for at least the pace as we are definately one paced at the moment and drop Wilson into the hole...

I'm very bored at the moment.

Insane if true, videos starting to appear on Twitter but don’t know how to link. Referee referred to player as ‘this black guy’.

Harris needs the hook to allow Wilson in his position as he is not coming for the ball he is just getting in the way of Moore. I know we intend to go long and he is there for the flick on but its not working.

Both wingers are hardly seeing the ball and when the do the waste it.

Give Murphy the whole of the second half.

Stoke were also poor. Dont think they've wanted it more just got fortunate with an Og. We need freshen up with subs and go again. A point is there. We can only get better!

Harris needs to utilise our subs

Change needed at HT. Just not at the races.
Wilson and Ojo just not getting the ball.

I blame it on everyone who predicted we would win by two clear goals (you know who you are) we always wilt against Stoke away and it's happening now. Will need a massive improvement to get anything from this. Poor performances from most of out players. If anyone from Liverpools coaching team they will not be too impressed by Wilson and Ojo.

Threat from long throw? Morrison is as threatening as a granny without her false teeth!! Been same all season when are they going to learn need another player to help Morrison get the ball as marked by two opponents...... as for his goal was comical he lifted foot up before ball came across and then he puts it down just as ball comes in and off his shin it goes.....

Apparently it was directed at demba baa not asst manager

45 minutes of football & not 1 shot on target from either team sums it up.

Well... that had to be one of the worst first halves served up by City at this level for some time.

Harris clearly knows nothing tactically. The team has no way of playing. Have a player like Wilson but would rather him chase long balls to no where.

I wasn't blinded by Harris' mini run - a bright peak to a long and hard season for this team.

Stoke have been possibly the worst opposition of the season tonight and have not looked top 6 themselves yet we still come off looking like we are a league below.

I've had it with Harris - we are going nowhere under him and Stoke cannot believe how easy this game is.

Game underway
