" Small mentality "

Do you agree with CCFC CENTRAL on Twitter?

Small mentality to accept a 1-1 draw with Blackburn. Look at their squad now, no Rhodes either. We should have won tonight

We could of lost to Annis hanging on it sounded like on commentary :shock:

We went from dominating first half to complete opposite second half they was saying. :bluescarf:

I think we have to be realistic now, we are not spending money on quality additions, so we are exactly where we deserve to be and that is a middle to possibly top six team. That type of team would be expected to get a draw at somewhere like Blackburn :thumbup:

Some supporters need a reality check, before start of season a lot were saying we would get best by Fulham, April and Blackburn, so 3 draws is a starter. Get Bruno back in defence and get the strikers sorted , should see a top 10 finish, all about stability for next year or two, I can cope with that, but how Manuy of our supporters can ?

Our fans think we should steam roll everyone, it's a mentality that the club cold really do without.

Take the positives move on support the team.

But many on here still prefer Cardiff to do badly, just like they did during the rebrand days just because they hate Tan.

Erie three games into a league you can put a run together in the last ten games and be promoted, yet our fans are already moaning.

Certainly not a small mentality. We're just an average team, the only disappointing thing about last night was conceding a late equalizer.

I think a lot of people are expecting too much. They seem to think we are much better than we really are

Absolutely not Annis. It is our delusions of grandeur that has plagued this club for the last decade that has got us into this mess in the first place.

We are a small to medium sized club that certainly should not be EXPECTING to beat the likes of Blackburn away. A draw was a cracking result in the great scheme of things.

I'm well happy with a draw away at Blackburn. Need to beat Wolves on Saturday though.

Totally agree. :thumbright: :sladein: :ayatollah:

It was a game that we should have won on paper but on the night a point was porbably a fair result despite the lateness of the equaliser.

On balance, we should have won against Fulham & QPR even though expectations were not as high for both of those games.

Any points away are a massive positive.

A draw at home is ok as long as it doesn't become a habit.

No need to panic!!!

Still think it's way to early in the season to hit the panic button, yes it would of been nice to get a couple of wins but there is a platform to build on we are still unbeaten so that is a small positive. I will judge after 10 games and see where we are then

Agree to many think city are big club we are not.We are just small club with minimal support.Since the advent of Telivision coverage kids no longer have to go to local club to watch football hence the reason kids no support teams from other cities and not their local team.also fans see far better football on TV week after week then compare their own teams to what they see.If city fans think we can emulate the big sides on or off pitch then they are sadly disillusioned we need to accept championship is our level at best and every game is hard there is no such thing as easy games any one who has played will tell you that.As after thought I believe some posters on here never go to games because things they say about games bear no resemblance to the game I watched.

Agree with a lot of your comments, but the sleeping giant has never been given more than a single year to awaken and that year was turmoil off and on the pitch. Many will disagree, but given just some period of success you simply wouldn't get a ticket due to demand. Sadly it might be a very long wait but it will happen one day :thumbup:
