Cardiff City manager Mark Hudson told BBC Sport Wales:




"We didn't play well in the first half, so we spoke at half time and started the second half well.

"Then we were naive at a couple moments in the game and gifted the the goal which was the winner ultimately.

"We spoke about that afterwards, there's lot of things we need to learn but we'll stick together and continue to improve as a group."

We dont like a team that can win a game - there is no real target man, which is what we need in the championship. Lots of siodeways movement last night. Our left back No 37 Nkongkou (dodgy spelling) was awful and way out of his depth. Responsible for the first goal and subsequent bad passes - just an awful player it seems.

Tan - says he has had offers from would be buyers - and turned them all down. Despite his family wanting him to sell. He wants to see city promoted again. Hudson has been given the job till the end of the season (Hudson not accepted yet though) , there are caveats to his appointment - if he has a bad run he is out the door basically.

Oh and Tan reckpns he will back Hudson in the transfer window as long as they are acceptable signings - whatever that means...

What do you mean "if he has a bad run" we have lost 5 of our last 7 and that includes 3 of our last 4 HOME games.

We were extremely poor last night. Weren't even doing the basics. So many heavy touches, poor control, little movement, overhit passes. It was very a unprofessional performance. We massively missed Kipre and wintle. Too many players need carrying at the moment. Sawyers has been massively dissapointing, our LB can not defend, Nelson could have done better with both second half goals.

We need to strengthen in January otherwise we will be flirting with relegation all season. 100% need another striker - Hugill would be top of my list.

According to Morison all these signings weren't just plucked from thin air.
They have all been well vetted before signing.Hmmmm

Nkongkou was poor but I don’t think he was at fault for the first goal, the cross came in from the right and Nelson didn’t deal with it.

However, a really poor performance and showed how important Wintle and Kipre are.

Ojo and Sawyers were also awful so get Philogene and Colwill in and then that’s a decent team.

I think Nkounkou is a wingback, he can't play in a flat-back four, it's been the case since day 1, but Hudson keeps taking him off and playing O'Dowda there....WTF !!!! What did Einstein say "the definition of 'insanity' is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results...

Romaine Sawyers is an Arthur Daley second-hand car "bargain". He is crocked :banghead:

Ojo wasn't that great but is woefully out of form
