Another lucky win imo

Sat Feb 13, 2021 5:07 pm

6 points off playoffs some are saying but we are also 3 points off 13th. 3 wins on the trot so much better results wise for us so you can't knock it at all.

Let's not start the "playoff" talk for God sake you got to be delusional to. Big micks honeymoon period won't last forever and then you lot start to turn as per usual :roll:

Did you watch the game or just judging it off the stats?

Anyone who watched the game will know the most creative and better team won the game. Even fans of Coventry are saying that.

Phillips had practically nothing to do other than pick the ball out of the net for their goal.

The only stat that matters is we stick the ball in the net three times to their one.

I'll still be surprised if we get in the top six. But these last few games prove that those who said we would get relegated after deadline day were overreacting :lol:


I do understand some people only want to be negative though.


You make your own luck in football.

ffs ned with his negative talk and now I'm question am I a fan. You couldnt make it up :lol:

You lot don't like nothing that ain't we was superb world beaters today posts. We won that will do me but I won't be sucking any manager off yet or the team we should be beating teams like cov full stop with our squad. The playoff mentions only come from them with heads in the sand tbh as it's anyone's from 7th to 13th after a few wins. We lose a few and it be mm out talk on here that's how mental it is.

On to the next one.

Not me who asked whether you were a fan, someone else posted that.


As I said, I still don't think we'll be in the play-offs. But my point is a lot of people said we would go down only two weeks ago, and they're being proved wrong in that respect.


Nothing wrong with people enjoying a few wins though in what's been an underwhelming season.

Ian, nice to see you back posting and your style hasn't changed...straight to it! :thumbup: :laughing6:

I'l vouch for you being a big Bluebirds supporter of long-standing but you will have to forgive 'Big hill Blue'; another of those 'newbies' who thinks the Forum only started when he arrived; although some of his stuff is okay ;)

Not really a 'lucky' win though and we should be 'happy' with 3 points; far better than when we went 7 'unlucky' games without a point :D

The only stat that matters is the final score.

Re: Another lucky win imo

Sat Feb 13, 2021 5:38 pm

Back in November we were outplayed and beaten luckily just 1 nil, could have been a lot worse I had to turn it off this was against the same team we played today.

We didnt just beat Coventry we out played them look at the stats I havent seen us have over 68% play for a long time so today was a great result also great for Murphy to score.

Still very close and we have to be careful but if we kept Harris as manager we would be where Birmingham is bottom 3 and league 1 next season , so welcome MM & TC thanks for giving us Bluebirds Hope :occasion5: :bluescarf:

Always watch the board sven every day I'm looking at it just don't post anymore really but Annis knows this. 9 points from 3 games we can't ask for more ive said that. But you know how fans are they get carried away one week and it's sack them all the next after a defeat or two. I've seen many who think the board started when they come on but sit and chuckle usually when they question anything that isn't what there thinking. No skin off my nose tbh mate :bluescarf:

Incredible post and title.

Incredible in the way that it is so negative.

I don't doubt you are a Cardiff fan but come on mate, enjoy the upturn in fortunes and be positive, its what's needed.

I don't understand what's going through your mind to have posted this.

3 wins on the bounce, unbeaten in 5 and you come on an post that, putting us down suggesting it was a lucky win and looking for negatives.

Did he have a save to make? Came out couple of times to catch or fist ball thats it! I remember nott f away last season they had about 30shots but our goalie did nothing all game.. as for shots on target mmmmm couldn't have been very hard shots as didnt have to save them..... people
on here use stats to prove nothing :D

Re: Another lucky win imo

Sat Feb 13, 2021 6:22 pm

Saying it was a lucky win is very harsh imo. Moore's first goal was very well taken and the ball won and passed from Murphy was great. The 3rd goal as well was a smart bit of play and tidy finish as well, only the second goal can be considered lucky. The first half we were by far the better team.

I would take a guess that a lot of Coventry's stats came once we were 3-0 up, we definitely took our foot off the pedal after 50mins. 21 shots looks impressive but only 5 on target is nothing to shout about, likewise with possession it looks good on paper but under Warnock we got promoted with one of the lowest possession stats in the league. 19 passes between the back 4 and midfield compared to 1 long ball can achieve exactly the same thing in a lot of cases however in terms of possession it would be 95% to 5%.

11 points from 15, 3 wins in a row and we've gone from 13 points off the playoffs to 6 points off the play offs. Also increased a gap of 6 points from relegation to 12 points.

Can't say I'm complaining :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Re: Another lucky win imo

Sat Feb 13, 2021 6:36 pm

I couldn’t agree less. There are 17 games remaining (51 points) and we are only 6 points off the play offs. Whilst the situation is currently numerically not in our favour, I see no reason to not look forward with a positive attitude, as the exciting unknown element is what excites me as a football fan.

Re: Another lucky win imo

Sat Feb 13, 2021 6:39 pm

We were a bit desperate at times, last ditch defending ,another day could have let 3 in. But very committed performance again.

It was a naive performance by Coventry, who fair enough felt they could hold the ball comfortably today, but it's all about the key areas of the pitch, which they were poor in... This gave us loads of room to counter-attack into which suits our front three down to the ground, we know Murphy and Wilson are good with space in behind, but Kieffer is deceptively quick as well :thumbright:

To call that a lucky win you would have to have not watched the game. It bodes well for when we face other teams who will have plenty of possession against us as even with a big injury list we managed the game well. :bluescarf:
