MATCH THREAD: " CARDIFF CITY v QPR " MATCH THREAD

CARDIFF IN THE GAME NOW


Ralls is released into the box and cleverly skins his man before letting off a low shot, but Dieng saves!

At least, without the dreadful Pack in midfield there is a bit more pace and we are passing quicker

27mins 0-0

Wilson is hacked down by Todd Kane in the middle of the park. He stays down for a while before getting back to his feet gingerly.

30 mins gone come on City QPR are very poor

the last 6mins

quite poor

So poor in possession, both teams.

Poor new striker has hardly touched it this first half.

Ilias Chair booked for a grisly challenge on Wilson as he skipped past him down the wing.

Poor new striker has hardly touched it this first half.

Over all a very poor game, two poor sides

Its livened up

Ralls hammers from the free-kick, laid off by Wilson, and it rebounds out to Ng on the edge of the box. Ng drills his effort and it's a great strike, only to be saved magnificently low and down to his right by Dieng. The rebound comes to Morrison, but he cannot get enough on it to steer it in!

Ralls tries a cheeky dinked ball over the defence and Watters sprints on to it, but Dieng just takes it before the striker can head it. Nice run, though.

Lovely run by Bennett, who skips past Chris Willock to force the foul in the middle of the park. Free-kick.

Cardiff improved in last 10mins



TWO VERY POOR SIDES / NOT EXCITING

H-T 0-0

Two poor sides but from the last 20 minutes think City could sneak this. Ng looks OK.

Before yesterday's games we were 21st in the 1st half table and 3rd in the second. That means we should* win!

*hopefully, fingers crossed.

Two sides both look like relegation fodder. We are shot with confidence. Main positive is a clean sheet. Watters looks very raw but there is something about him. NG looks a first division full back but played ok

Point 1- Harris we don't need 3 "ratters" in midfield, be brave hook one and play Wilson as the AMC

Point 2- How do I mute Jason Perry, he is like an excitable schoolgirl , never noticed before, he just goes through me

Its good to see the "neil Harris" possession based game still at large. pass,pass pass, pass back, pass back whack it aimlessly long-

To be fair Jason Perry used to go through most people

Really like the look of ng, needs a winger in front of him as an out ball though. Not trying to be negative but need to get watters off and bring on Murphy or OJO to stretch them

I said this before kickoff. This formation would suit Murphy better. Cant see Harris being that brave though.

BLUEBIRDS

QPR come out attacking

Great defending from Nelson to flick a cross behind for a corner, with Dykes bearing down behind him.

Ralls tries to slide Moore in behind the centre backs, but the official's flag is raised.

The 3pts are there for City, if we pressurise QPR

Forest 0 Boro 2 Warnock

Need to play ball to man upfront not play to the space as ball just running away in this weather! Several times this as happened when in good positions

No chances really so far from both sides

Harris coming on
