Was that Cardiff weakest ever team

Sat Jan 05, 2013 5:32 pm

I am not overly concerned we are out of the cup and of course I will love us to still be in the cup I thought that this team should have been good enough to beat a mid table conference side. we have given some good youngster a run out who will only benefit from this in the long run and others are clearly not good enough to be part of any future premiership squad but if the like of Ralls John and Nugent have benefited from the game then great

However in my 37 years of watching city this must be the weakest team I can remember ever wearing a city shirt in a competitive game ( I am not taking age into account as they maybe the youngest team as well )

I have seen worse weaker play against newport Carmethern in the welsh cup etc over the years so I do not agree totally but it was a week team today that is why I am not worried to be honest

I understand your point but. I think you might be underestimating how far we've progressed as a team in the last 20 years?

Very weak by today's standards ( I can think of 17 first team players who would play before most today ) but there have been a fair few weaker teams we've put out than today's IMO

I have been a fan since 1992 and that was not the worst city side ever believe me!

i dont care that we are out of the cup. but what worries me is there was no real talent out there today for us. i thought that team were good enough to go through to the next round . i think malky should have some strong words for these so called future stars? and that veronjka, or what ever his name is. should just go out of the doors on monday. ok. 2 million quid . but a waste of time and space. im more a footballer than him. anyway.thats my rant. the league is the big one. not the cups to get in our way, :ayatollah:
