Forget signing Moore

Use the money to sign a keeper a central defender a left back a right winger and an attacking midfield.

Try to get Moore in the summer.

Disagree, our main problem is that we have nobody to hold the ball up top, resulting in losing possession in final third to easily. Get Moore in asap, keep Rambo fit and it's a different team altogether

Why do we need a keeper? Alnwick made some terrific saves tonight. 2 errors cost us the goals. Ralls getting caught and Bowler caught sleeping. Not the keepers fault.

Ralls getting caught was all because goutas playing it out from the back. 2 or 3 times he had opportunity to get rid and kept passing to ng or mcguiness and then ralls all with players on them. Inviting pressure on ourselves

We do need a striker, but let’s not rely on them to keep possession.

We need better midfielders to hold the ball, pass quicker, beat players etc.

Get rid of old fashioned Cardiff, bored of seeing kick it up top.

Ralls not himself last night but to blame him for getting caught for the first goal is just a cheap shot by some, terrible ball to play to him.

Jules. Just to clarify. I’m not blaming Ralls for the goal as I’m one of his supporters. I don’t understand the stick he gets on here.
What I was saying was it was 2 errors that resulted in the goals. Ralls getting caught on the ball for the 1st. For me it shouldn’t have been played short before to him. We should have cleared earlier, Goutas was lucky not to have lost it when faffing around out wide.
The 2nd was Bowler being slow to the ball in our penalty area. Which was strange as throughout the game his reactions when up front had been a lot faster than the rest of our players.
I still say Alnwick had a good game and don’t understand the need for comments on the keeper, unless it refers to off loading Runnarson. I would get rid of him asap.
Overall, I thought we played a lot better than we have lately.

I don’t like to see us continually try to play out from the back and it’s cost us 3 goals this season. Their front line were very fast and on us so quickly. Would like to see us mix it up a bit coming from our keeper.

Yep. Spot on mate.

We need a striker ASAP. We also need a midfielder who goes forward, not sideways and backwards.

I agree it was a pass from Goutas that put Ralls under pressure, but he still tried to play himself out of trouble when he could have played the ball forward, at least he wouldn't have lost possession just outside our area. At least the defence has an opportunity to get organised. Unfortunately Ralls is so one footed is maybe the reason he didn't use his right foot to play it forward before he was dispossessed.

No mate didn't mean you, just some posters always blame him and to me every match he has been replaced we lose shape and discipline, great servant to the club who doesn't get enough praise in my eyes.
I will say again, the ball to him last night was ridiculous.
