Harris apologises

Wed Jan 01, 2020 5:42 pm

Cardiff manager Neil Harris told BBC Radio Wales: "It was hugely disappointing and hugely unexpected, I didn't recognise my team out there defensively.
"My teams don't defend like that, don't get opened up like that. One v one we weren't good enough... we'll be discussing those goals we conceded.
"First and foremost I need to apologise on behalf of the group... to our fan base that have travelled at an expensive time of the season. They don't deserve that."

Strange
I think every City fan recognises that defensive display we have seen it all season, the difference today was QPR punished us

Isn't he the bloke in charge? Organising, galvanising and motivating?

His answer will be to play Morrison and Flint you just watch.

Sound words , unfortunatey i have no faith in him delivering any improvement and not many managers get much support from the fanbase if a second drubbing comes along.

At least he is brutally honest although I'm not sure what else he could say

"My teams don't defend like that, don't get opened up like that"

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Must have been watching the games with Arsene Wenger's glasses on.

We've been torn apart by most teams we've played all season - most teams can get from their own box to ours with just one or two passes right through our midfield.

Thought jazz had a very poor game continuously getting beaten and lost player for 1st goal at least! Not sure why put whyte on for glatzel late in game why not do it at half time? bit late to prop up midfield 5 goals down! :o

Today's fiasco could have happened a few other times this season. We have avoided a few drubbings this season more because of poor finishing from the opposition rather than any defensive qualities which we seem to lack right now.

Spot on. This is not isolated. Even before today only one side had conceded more away goals than us.

I don’t blame Harris, not his fault he is a very good League one manager as many many Millwall fans told me, just out of his depth.

This has been coming since the start of the season. Strangely enough QPR should have stuffed us at home, we had 3 shots and scored all 3 and they had at least 10. Most unbelievable 3-0 you’d see. Warnock is to blame for this shambles of a squad.

Next serious game is Swansea

Couldn't set it up better for a reaction

Warnock to blame ? Really , I blame Len Ashurst lol Harris is the manager he is to blame he is the manager of a bunch of players who I keep reading are a good squad of players but they just cant be bothered Poor Warnock was driven out by these players and now we can see why Warnock left but all these players are to blame and a poor manager who clearly couldn't sort it out today even though we had an embarrassing thumping.

Very sad say and I can see it only getting worse

Re: Harris apologises

Wed Jan 01, 2020 7:53 pm

Words mean nothing .....from now in its results only .....honestly don’t see any quality in our squad who will come in and make the necessary difference

Truly embarrassing. The club should reimburse the fans who travelled.
