Negativity

One defeat away from home opening day of the season and some people are already slagging off Malky and talking about being relegated. FFS get a grip and get behind Malky and the team, we need to be 100% behind the team not arguing about red or blue or slagging off Malky for certain tactics or personnel decisions. Disappointing result today granted but you don't win a league after one game and you ain't relegated after one game either. We had a couple of first team players injured today and I am sure Malky will get another couple in before deadline day. But for Christ's sake we got enough people outside of our club hoping we fail. This season is going to be challenging enough as it is so I urge everyone to stand loud and proud and give unswerving support and loyalty to CARDIFF CITY FOOTBALL CLUB

Its a 38 game season and people are crying that we lost 2-0 at a place where many did not leave with points. Bring on Man City !!!!!!!

don't want to put a downer on your summary... however MOST premier league teams took points off West Ham at Upton Park last season. 10 did 9 didn't.

What a very odd stat.

So Cardiff City are basically no better than 9 other clubs in this league? It think we'd take that in our first season. Your stat doesn't really suggest its the end of the world especially when you see that last year WHU only lost 4 at home.

How did Swansea do at Upton Park Last year?

55% of the league lost 5 or less at home last year.

its not a stat to suggest you are better or worse than other teams, your performances decipher that. The stat was in response to the lad who said ''not many got points from west ham last year'' when in reality, most of the league did.

We narrowly lost 1-0 to an Andy Carroll goal a match we could have won. at no point it it look like you were capable of a draw let alone a win yesterday.

We are going to get negativity for most of the season. We had it last year and we romped the league. You need to take it for granted, we have one hell of a lot of "glass half empty" types.

You set yourself a goal for the season and always be happy if you look like reaching it. Mine this year is 17th position and I'll not take any interest in tables until the new year. It's all rosy for the footballing side this year and no one is going to convince me differently.

I've said it before there are many on here you wouldn't want in the trenches with you, they'd go running away very quickly.

West Ham 1-0 Swansea City

Posession 45%-55%
Shots on target 9-7

* Premier League money spent by Swansea - £23.4 million over 2 seasons.


West Ham 2-0 Cardiff City

Posession 49%-51%
Shots on target 6-1

* Premier League money spent by Cardiff - £28.3 million in a few months

Get behind the team ffs! Going to upton park was always going to be hard.

doesn't help when we as club make it easier for the home team by playing unfit and out of position players!!!!

So we are not allowed to disect the game and talk about tactics on a football forum unless we lie and say Malkys tactics were great.
