This is when Morison lets himself down, every time a bad defeat he never accepts responsibility.

Morison you got it tactically wrong.

Morison you were not up for it, No passion.

The Jacks, their staff, manager etc all wanted it big time and turned up on the day, Cardiff never turned up end off.

You and the team that day made history and will never be remembered for the right reasons.

Morison, the players let themselves down as they weee not up for it and we’re 2nd to the Jacks all over the pitch for 90mins.

The passionate Cardiff fans have the puss taken out of them while you lot just move on.


Players should not have been in Dubai, just like what happened before the Liberty defeat, The club never learn.

If playing in front of nearly a full stadium of Cardiff fans, then there’s something seriously wrong with your psychological professionalism……

We've analyised everything watched the game over and decided that the reason we lost was that there were too many people in the crowd!!

PMSL at that and I haven't heard such bullshit since Dave Jones. In my opinion we lost, SO BADLY, last week because we were outfought on the pitch and out thought off it.

This is typical of some Cardiff City so called fans....as soon as the club gives a manager a contract; the knives are out to get rid of him. Yes we are all pissed off with last weeks result; it was a complete disaster and our worst nightmare, but I can't see things improving much for the foreseeable future.
It won't help slagging off the manager or getting on the players back. I simply think there is no ambition by the owner or the board.
The last time we had any serious ambition was when Malkie first came to the club. That's when possitive things started to happen. Shame that ambition ended when we were promoted!
I think we should get off the manager and players back and have a go at those in the very posh seats.

I agree with Morrison normally we have 12 to 13000 then a load of jollys turn up at 1 game with a lot of pressure so he maybe right however Joe Ralls I cannot forgive one of his worst games and 10 years at the club he knows better but the younbg players will learn from this and we can still get revenge next season

This guy is a troll and a WUM.

Only ever looking to stir up for a reaction.

I’m surprised more people haven’t noticed.

Sorry SM, but we lost because we weren’t prepared, we weren’t motivated, and we weren’t tactically minded,,,, and that’s all down to you Mr Morison. You failed a massive big test last Saturday,,,, so big in fact, that it will forever be etched in the Psyche of every Cardiff City Fan.

I have to agree. He had 1 chance and failed. After avoiding relegation this was the game to win. Forget holidays, going home etc . No respect for Hudson in this matter as well , he should have forced the issue with Morrison or left.

Re: Steve Morison claims Cardiff lost the South Wales derby

He needed to apologise. End of. He just cant seem to recognise that his job is to motivate and inspire not just tactics. By his own admission he only 'talks' to the team. I would have ripped into them at half time. He failed miserably and has to take responsibility. Own it. He says the youngsters didn't handle the crowd or the occasion but whats the excuse for the senior pros then? Flint, Ralls, Hugill will all woeful. The picture of him with his staff gaining manager of the month is also crass stupidity. You've just got smashed at home by your rivals in one of the worst defeats in our history but you want a pat on the back for winning three games? Like others have said I've lost all respect for him and am now counting the days until the board realise that he lacks the necessary man management skills to take the team forward.

Complete drivel we went to Liverpool and weren't overawed in front of 50000.
We get a big crowd at home and shit ourselves?. Rubbish just weren't up for it

Totally agree with this Annis. It's almost as if the players are being rewarded for not being good enough to play International Football.

Each and every one of the players, not on international duty, should have put the whole two weeks into planning how we were going to beat the Jacks. Every morning we should have been looking at their games, talking about where their weaknesses are, talking about how to expose those weaknesses. Talking about our formation and how best to nullify them.

Then on the training pitch, we should have been putting it into practice. Set pieces. Nicely worked free-kicks and corners. We should have thrown the kitchen sink into it.

We didn't. That's why we lost.

They threw the kitchen sink into it. They wanted it more. They won because they wanted it more. Simple as that!

Annis,

He picked the wrong team/formation it was as simple as that.

I don’t like saying it but maybe he should have brought back Pack, Bacuna etc but it’s to late now. He’s a young manager learning his trade and we have to accept that.

Next season will be the time he has to get things right and be upfront with any issues :ayatollah:

Re: Steve Morison claims Cardiff lost the South Wales derby

Who actually froze ? So it must be talking about Harris, McGuiness,Bagan,Doyle, Wintle

Smithies- No
Drameh- our best player
NG - our second best player
Ralls - played in 60 of those in the premier league and championship run in
Hugil, his parent club is premier league and he has had some meaty transfer fees
Flinty- Been around forever.


Or was it the first teams managers biggest assignment to date and he failed ?

This would be all over if he just come out and said. "this is on me, i got it all wrong, i learn from it and it won't happen again, i thought we'd impose our game on them but it was the other way around and i was too slow to react"

Doubters like me would say, he is learning on the job ( i just think CCFC is too big a job for an untried novice) and he'll hopefully learn. But he keeps on throwing (our) kids under the bus and nothing is ever him, the leader.

Why do we need to give him a break, he is never a manager at this level,and can you tell the Jacks to give the Cardiff fans a break

This 100%. Not putting the blame fully on the Dubai trip but management should never have let it happen. It was upto Steve Morison and he’s put a weeks holiday before his biggest game of the season and totally got what he deserved. Firmly behind Morison and as mentioned on this thread, happy to have him learn with us. There have been a few occasions now though where you can really tell his lack of experience is coming to the fore.

“I’ll take responsibility as I didn’t pick a team good enough to deal with the expectations etc…” Theb goes on to say say how he should have played Pack!!

Worried

Bullshit we went to Liverpool in fa cup we weren’t nervous there and we played well in front of a bigger crowd

We all know why we lost, lack of on and off field preparation. We all knew before the game that it would be won by who turns up on the day. The jerks got it right, we got it wrong. It's solely down to SM and an honest admission and apology should have been his response. Another lesson he has learned the hard way I hope.

He has done well though under the most difficult circumstances and has earned another season to prove and deliver on his vision. VT has to back him and show ambition and it should be a priority board level-directive for the club to connect to their fans, instead of the constant radio-silence. Season tickets will be on sale soon and something should have been stated by now.

If I'm honest and had a magic wand, I would have liked to have seen a managerial appointment such as the jerks have previously and historically made, for whatever reason we haven't seemed to be able to do that. But we are where we are I guess, a team in transition. SM does show promise so I'll fully support him now and hope he delivers. I am concerned about his lack of experience at this level but as said, that's the hand we have been dealt with.

This nails it for me. On the one hand I do like Morison's attitude and fortidude to say let's get on with it. But his inexperience shows in the fact that he just cannot admit he made a mistake in the formation and set up.

The only reason, I can think, that he would not admit to dropping a bollock is because he honestly believes it was NOT down to his formation and team selection. Most of us believe the opposite.

With all that said, one swallow does not make a summer, just as one awful game does not spell disaster. We need to have some stability, so for the knee jerkers to call for his head is just short sightedness. You don't win Manager of the Month by being clueless. He got the jerks game wrong but let's see where he takes us from here. Give the man a chance. :bluebird:
