My View/Opinion

" CARDIFF CITY ARE GOING NO WHERE UNDER SLADE OR THIS PRESENT REGIME "

Hull did not even need to go in to 2nd gear as City were virtually non existent.

I really felt for the diehards tonight, having made the long journey for the team not to turn up.

There was NO drive, desire or team spirit from Cardiff tonight, in fact we looked,nervous from the start.

City never had one shot on target :shock: :shock: :shock:

HULL CITY 2 CARDIFF CITY 0


Marshall; Peltier, Connolly, Manga, Malone; Noone, Gunnarsson, Ralls, Pilkington; Watt, Mason

Subs: Moore, Fabio, Whittingam, O'Keefe, Ameobi, Macheda, Revell

Crowd 15,549
Away Support - 113 City fans + 50 comps making the official figure 163 City fans ( But not all the comps have been taken ).


With Hull City laying 3rd in the Championship and City in 9th, this was really going to be test for Russell Slades team.
Approx 130 City fans had made the long cold journey to the North.


From the first minute Cardiff continually gave the ball away, putting ourselves under pressure, thankfully Hulls finishing was not up to scratch.

In the 40th min Peltier fouled to give Hull a penalty , which was easily put away 1-0 :cry

Half-time Hull 1 City 0

With in minutes Marshall was in action and as Hull continued to go forward they split our defence open 2-0 Hull :cry:

60th min Mason who had done nothing, was replaced by Ameobi.

80th min Watt who had his worse game so far was replaced by Macheda.



My Man of the match David Marshall :thumbright:

ANOTHER DIRE CITY PERFORMANCE & NOW FOR THE LONG JOURNEY HOME.


Up next Wolves away this Saturday :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Not one shot on goal, is that for real? That's shocking! Slade needs to do the honorable thing and step aside sooner rather than later.

Annis, feel sorry for you and the others who will get back at God knows what time tonight for players that won't give 100% and a manager who has lost Ye plot. Safe journey home, we don't deserve players who have given up. :sladeout:

He's spot on!

I hope Slade is not the only figure at the club to blame for failure. Let's face it, this season is a failure
Not a chance this team goes on a winning streak. The blame lies with Tan, he is a virus that has no cure. He has to go

Yes without a doubt Slade needs to go

I don't think Tan, Dalmen and Choo even care or know what they are doing. Slade (who was given this plumb job on a plate) and his useless deluded Coaching team are 2Leagues out of their depth. It's a shame someone like Big Sam is in work because that's the kind of experience we need, not Bellamy like everyone is shouting about. Not yet anyway ... Tan and Slade just go now

Re: MY VIEW/ OPINION " CARDIFF CITY ARE GOING "

Annis, respect to every single supporter that travelled to a tough gig on an awful night! :notworthy:

Also respect to Russell Slade for taking the time to walk over to those same fans and applaud them :ayatollah:

I don't think I've ever read anyone on here saying he isn't a nice/decent guy, but I hope for everyone's sake that this was a humble farewell prior to an announcement later today or tomorrow

By the sound of the commentary (and early reports on here) it sounds like City were beaten quite easily and with little much in the way of a serious response, so time for change and someone who can re-galvanise and (maybe) add to what we mostly agree is a decent squad in this Division; preferably NOT from within! ;)

Safe journey home everyone who travelled :thumbup: :notworthy:

Shocking I know, we were freezing and not once did we get excited by tonight's game :cry:

Re: MY VIEW/ OPINION " CARDIFF CITY ARE GOING "

Wed Jan 13, 2016 10:38 pm

I am still wondering how some fans on this forum have'nt been able to see that Slade is not up to managing at this level. We still have a few who believe he can take us forward, and one or two who are still convinced we can make the play offs. I think the majority of fans knew at the start of the season that we were destined for mid table mediocrity, and the others are either wearing the thickest blue blinkered glasses they could find, or have very limited knowledge of football. Even saw predictions of a draw tonight, and one or two even predicting a win for us. Have they actually been watching the same Cardiff City that I have been watching all season. This match was almost a home win banker, and quite a few on this forum (not me) got the score spot on. We were never going to be in the promotion battle, and we have'nt got any cup games to look forward to either. Our season has fizzled out, and I can see some very poor home attendances ahead of us.
