MATCH THREAD: " CARDIFF CITY v NORWICH CITY " MATCH THREAD

Is anyone overly bothered? Personally, it was nice having a run in this comp last season because the league was a lot easier. I’m happy we’re out and can focus more attention on the championship. Particularly with our injury issues.

Never like losing but in these freak circumstances cant believe the moaning. Hardly a shock losing ti Norwich. We literally had to play a child in the first half too!

But why are we in freak circumstances and why have we had to play a child at centre back?

We're not moaning at our actual performance tonight.

We are moaning at our clown of an owner who has not backed our manager, leaving us with a tiny squad.

We have only brought in 1 (ONE!) new player so far!!

It's been obvious for a few seasons our defence will continue to concede soft goals like tonight.

We need two new centre backs who can head corners/set pieces/crosses away.

Kpakio made more mistakes tonight and isn't quite ready for this level. He needs to be loaned out to continue developing, meaning we will need another right back in who is ready.

We have 2 good left backs, so we're fine there.

We haven't replaced Wintle yet, so we need a new defensive midfielder.

Our wingers were terrible tonight and aren't good enough at this level. Tanner and Ashford are the only wingers who I think will have a good go this season. We need another winger or two to stengthen. Willock and Davies can be sold/loaned out.

Robinson was poor again and if we lose Salech, we're stuffed. We need another striker.

Wrexham and other teams keep stengthening and improving, but that's why they will finish above us.

Our clown of an owner was a billionaire when he bought us. Now he's just a millionaire who should be a billionaire, because he has no clue about football.

Unless a minimum of 4 new players come in this week, I still think it will be a miracle if we manage to avoid relegation. It's the winter months in particular, where our lack of depth and failure to improve the key areas of the team required will catch up with us.

Finally, the ref tonight was a disgrace, failing to protect Joel. Rubin had to step in to protect Joel, because the referee didn't.

Well you told me a year ago that I was in cuckoo land for saying we'd be top six.

So we may as well start celebrating our survival tonight.

This isn't League 1 anymore.

I feel sorry for BBM. He hasn't been backed at all.

I hope our young 15 year old learns from his experience tonight, as it was totally unfair on him getting thrown in like that.

What a mess Tan has put us in once again.

Was it unfair on Donczew and Tankiewicz playing in the Carabao Cup last season?

I'm just making the point that you were happy to write us off last season.

Everyone knows we need new signings and we will get them. The quality of them, that can be judged later.

We move on ...
