MY VIEW / OPINION

WITH TOMLIN SENT OFF & AWFUL CONDITIONS CARDIFF CITY GOT A WELL DESERVED AWAY DRAW TODAY AT BLACKBURN BY THEIR SOLID DEFENDING & ALL THE TEAM GIVING A BATTLING DISPLAY / WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT CARDIFF FANS WANT


Cardiff need to bring the 3 new players in ASAP Harris says he needs.


LEE TOMLIN SENT OFF WITH 20 MINS TO GO.

Last seconds Morrison cleared what looked like a certain goal for Blackburn.


Harris had virtually his best players out today.

Defence for City solid today



2nd half: Junior Hoilett played well

My Man of the Match Smithies followed by Ojos best performance



City needed to get the ball to Moore, he needs service.
I watched some brilliant work by Moore in the middle of the pitch past three players, but he cant do it on his own,



First-half: For me Smithies and Morrison both solid Moore not given the ball enough, no service.
Best 45 mins Ojo has played,
But over all City held their own.
Blackburn by far had the better chances.





Cardiff's last four outings at Ewood Park, 4 draws & now its 5.



BLACKBURN ROVERS 0 CARDIFF CITY 0
h/t 0-0


Cardiff City (4-2-3-1): Smithies; Osei-Tutu, Morrison, Nelson, Bennett; Bacuna, Pack; Ojo, Tomlin, Hoilett; Moore.

Subs: Day, Bamba, Cunningham, Vaulks, Ralls, Murphy, Glatzel.



Junior Hoilett in the 5th min ran with the ball and then had a hell of a strike saved by the Blackburn goalie


13th min Bennett goes down.
Joe Bennett hobbles off and replaced by Greg Cunningham

41st min Ojo Great shot save by Blackburn goal keeper

Last 10 mins all City

45th min one on one and what save by Smithies


just before the whistle another save by Smithies



H/T 0-0



49th min, dreadful foul by Bacuna, yellow card could of been sent off.



Blackburn did 2 substitutions


Smithies save from Armstrong



Junior Hoilett played well



70th min
RED CARD! Lee Tomlin is sent off for a second bookable offence. Contact with the shoulder it would seem.


Armstrong fires one off from 25 yards but Smithies gathers well.




What a miss by Blackburn, that was so close and should of been 1-0 to Blackburn.

The ball was whipped across the face of goal and Gallagher, at the back post, lifts his effort over the bar.


Hoilett went off for Ralls

Vaulks on Jojo off




MY MAN OF THE MATCH: SMITHIES & OJO

You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

I think a lot of fans would have taken a draw before kick off as Blackburn have been much better than us.So being down to 10 men with 20 mins to go feels a bit like a win.
Smithies MOTM.

We know what Warnock would do with Tomlins total lack of discipline. Interesting what Harris will say about "Tommo".

Tomlin is an idiot - on a yellow and loses it.
The team didn’t deserve to lose so well done for a clean sheet and a point.
Looking forward, this squad is bottom half at best.
Need a mobile forward, winger who can cross to Moore, a quicker CMr and cover for Tutu.

Strange game in terms of stats 32% possession but rest stats equal or better than them we had 7 corners to their 1 though!
At least only 2 game ban for Tomlin performance much better more like end of season..... but must find way of keeping moore in centre and the wingers out wide not other way around..

Excellent point, might have been all 3 if Tomlin hadn’t behaved like an idiot

Both loan players had their best games so far but we need to give Keiffer better service or we are not going to score enough goals

Was encouraged by what I saw today. Looked defensively solid. Better in attack. Thought there were a lot of good performances. Lad from Arsenal looked quality. Pack looked like a different player, Confident on the ball and had some really nice touches. Smithies is a great keeper.

Caused our own problems at Rome’s. Gave the ball away a few times trying to pass out from the back which have them chances.

Yellow had a big impact on the game.

Very good point when down to 10 men....battled as a team .....very happy under circumstances

Tomlin is just a one game ban

4 away points and 2 clean sheets to put a positive spin on things.

Good point and 25 minutes with 10 men an excellent clean sheet. Blackburn are the top scorers in the League but only had 1 real chance.

Just seen the Tomlin incident. What a total plonker ! So obvious that you have to wonder whether it was a deliberate ploy on his part to miss the next game or two. Totally unprofessional and not acceptable from a Cardiff City player.

For me now... This tomlin has the international break and atleast one game (not sure he gets a 3 game ban or not) to get himself match fit. I am sick of hearing all the time, he's not match fit, he's not fully fit or upto match speed yet.

Tomlin is just a one game ban

MY MAN OF THE MATCH: SMITHIES & OJO

I dont often agree with you but found myself agreeing with everything you have wrote above. We need three or four players added to the squad. I thought Ojo played well i also thought Cunningham was decent except for a few stray passes but he has been out for awhile to be fair

We know what Warnock would do with Tomlins total lack of discipline. Interesting what Harris will say about "Tommo".

Spot On

We know what Warnock would do with Tomlins total lack of discipline. Interesting what Harris will say about "Tommo".

It's pick,pick,pick usual suspects too what they want to happen, Leave him out of the team for longer than his one game ban?? Well thought out,leave our best player out as punishment, that will do us a favour,NOT.

i dont think Warnock would leave a player he sees as our best threat out tbh... and that is defo how Harris sees Tomlin..

No

Kieffer Moore won 13 aerial duels yesterday. More than double the next best (Sean Morris on, 6) and 10 more than any Blackburn player.
Hadn't given him the mentioned he deserved for his work

Good result under the circumstances!

Tomlin is needed, but if he can’t behave, he’s a libility. Maybe a session on the naughty step will focus his mind!!
