MATCH THREAD: “CARDIFF CITY v BLACKPOOL " MATCH THREAD

Corner to the Bluebirds

Then a lesson into how to give the ball to the opposition for a free run into your area!

Ng then goes in with a wild tackle in much the same area as Osho on Tuesday! Thankfully, only a yellow card is shown!

LATEST SCORE: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 0 BLACKPOOL (36 mins)

Corner is poor

Hit low and straight to Bowler, who looks to break.

Bagan does well to come across and win the ball.

Tanners corner , I got criticised last week for criticising the corners , come on it’s pathetic

City corner

I agree with you

Tanners corner , I got criticised last week for criticising the corners , come on it’s pathetic

He couldn’t pass water. Dreadful and proved it at championship level last season.

COME ON CARDIFF

Get Rubin off and his brother on.

Get Rubin off and his brother on.

You mean get the majority off and find a striker

Tanner's delivery is deep and headed away.

Ashford looks to keep it alive, but Tanner can't keep the ball in as it floats towards the far post.

This is poor, no cutting edge coming up to 2 and a half hone games without a goal, Kellyman needs hooking ge is poor

BBM has to take the blame for this

Sideways and backwards again.
Absolute zero movement up front so it’s hardly surprising there’s f’in no bugger to pass to.
Nice to see a few more shots but still tippy tappy searching for that perfect goal and a pass too many on multiple occasions.

All very well having 60-70% possession when we lose on the counter attack. Missing the creativity in midfield that Joel gives us.
Need to get Tanner off 2nd half.
Playing as shit as BBM’s haircut.

ABSOLUTELY SPOT ON

Good play from Fish

Calmly turns away from Bloxham to smuggle the ball to Trott under pressure.

Unlucky from Kellyman and the ball goes out fir a corner, which is wasted for pulling in the box!

Good save from Blackpool goalie

H/T 0/0

Poor over all, NO END PRODUCT

We are lacking any real leadership. Colwill and Chambers aren’t leaders.

I wouldn’t follow Ruben into battle - put it that way.

Get Rubin off and his brother on.

Your right needs to come off. Our recent poor form concedes with his return in general.

After a late injury wait, the half-time whistle goes and sadly, it’s been a continuation of Tuesday!

Half-time report: 6/10 - Must do better!

BBM has chosen him

Agree. Got to be one of the worst captaincy appointments in football history.
It was the last thing he needed. He needs to concentrate on be able to play consistently well at the level he showing flashes of.

Movement in the final third is absolutely atrocious yet again. Really frustrating half

Come out for a smoke. Jesus it's no wonder the ground is half empty and a graveyard atmosphere, tippy tappy crap down the sides, awful delivery of corners and set pieces except the kellyman header and pot shots to row Z. Absolutely nothing in the middle as usual as they got 4 players round kellyman so he's got to come deeper than midfield to touch the bloody thing then It goes backwards again . It be lit luck they get one chance and score although I don't expect BBM to change the way we play. Sleep therapy stuff first half are we trying to pass the ball to the back of the net

Poor first half we really look like we are struggling to break them down has all the hallmarks of a 0-1 smash and grab, we have to find a way to win this a scrappy 1-0 will be fine we don't want to give the chasing pack a boost

Well summed up. I don’t know how we are struggling because some last week said Colwill a mid table prem player should be carving these open for fun.

Get Robbo on 2nd half also Joel COME ON CITY!!!!

You can really see that they've come for a 0-0 and maybe score on the break as every time we have the ball they have all 11 players in front of us in 3 ever larger banks & we can't get through them. Doesn't help that we are so slow to move the ball up the pitch with very little movement ahead of it. 77.5% possession & zero to how for it except 2 shots on target.
