MY VIEW: A VERY DIRE GAME / IT TOOK 77MINS TO SEE A GOALIE IN ACTION:



Cardiff were unbeaten away from home before today and Bolton were undefeated at home.


City’s undefeated away record was lost and in my view by our sloppiness.

Cardiff never had a shot on goal.

And pass back way too much now.



The Tinkering and mistakes are becoming costly





FIRST-HALF: Quite boring, No shots on target from either side.
Cardiff City had far more possession, but over all nothing between them.
But Bolton had 3 times as many shots off target.



SECOND-HALF: Continued like the first half.

65mins Double City change: Tanatswa and Cian replace Isaak Davies and Omari Kellyman.

76mins Ryan and Ronan replaced Joel Bagan and Alex Robertson.


77mins first time a goalie had to make some sort of safe, and it was the Bolton goalie.

83mins Callum replaces Yousef Salech.


GOAL! Bolton Wanderers 1-0 Cardiff City (Cozier-Duberry 90+4)

Cozier-Duberry bends it into the top corner from 25 yards. It's the winner.

Poor from Nyakuhwa, who gives the ball away in midfield with 30 seconds left and Bolton work it to the edge of the area before a great strike from the Brighton loanee.

I see the fans turning here.

This is not the only dire performance and fans are getting frustrated. We need a dramatic change else we are going to drop down the league.

What we done all game went backwards even if there was 20 yards to run in to forwards sadly that's how he instructs them in my opinion. It's garbage but some say the table don't lie yet take trott out the side and the 12 points we have robbed off sides we would be sitting differently. Got to improve end of.

To many changes every game footballers are mentioned to be fit so playing two games in a week is at least expected to much like riza in the respect he seems he doesn't know his best team start of season first 5/6 games no goals conceaded from open play he starts tickering not replacing one or two players because of injury but 5/ 6 per game you can't build up consistency with so many changes BTW I said this a weeks ago he's just like riza he promised entertaining attacking football it's just so frustrating football not exciting in anyway he started off well I said there's things I like about him but overall I'm very undecided on whether he can take us up this season

Players are taught to pass and not go forward at times it was walking football at back no intent to go forward at times players literally stopped waited then passed it to trott who went on to do precisely same thing.... this is why we constantly lost possession simply no momentum just static passing back & forth which was Boltons main threat created by us unfortunately

Too slow to counter when winning the ball back allowing them to get back into position every time.
No shots or crosses when we have the chance, instead go backwards and sidewards before losing possession.
Salech and Robinson must be pulling their hair out.
No penetration in final third whatsoever.

First time I've been genuinely annoyed at bbm since he arrived and I've been one of his biggest supporters

The pace we play at is just to slow and I'm fed up of our wingers cutting back and playing the ball back to the full backs

Just attack the line and get balls into the box ffs

We need to get to January still in the top 6 then dictator tan needs to dip into his pocket and bring in 2 genuine wingers as at the moment we are playing number 10,s and strikers on our wings not natural wingers

In a game we never really tried to win to lose in that manner is crazy. We played for a point. Low quality game, Turnbull and Rubin really poor.

We have got worse every game, playing football by going backwards ???

Sadly this seems to be the mentality of our players. There's nowhere near enough/positive thinking. It's got to change.

Did' nt seen the game today funeral ,but said earlier in the week duberry is the danger man coming in from the wing on his left boot, sounds like he did the same as the midweek game.

It was a world class finish to be fair. We did a fairly good job on him for 92mins.

Glad bagan kept him quite i have been one of the biggest supporters of bagan when a lot were saying he would not make it,
i said he could turn into our other long serving left back bennet and it was not his fault for the goal.

The lack of intent was woeful, and when you sit to be happy with a point you deserve to come away with nothing.

To go 90mins without a shot on target suggests there needs to be a different approach on the training ground.

NG shut him out in the first half. He's one of those who stays on the same side of the pich for the whole match. NG played well today.

Did he cut in from the left then or the right side ?

Cut in from right because he used left boot? But was quite central when shot ...I'm ambidextrous so get confused! :lol:

He did, but first half he was also that side of the park. So left mid first half, right mid second where he cut in.

Was NG playing left back then ? If he kept him quite and he didn't change wings?

Re: MY VIEW: A VERY DIRE GAME / IT TOOK 77MINS TO SEE A GOAL

No. NG was right back. Bagan left.

First half, he attacked our right. Second half, he attacked our left.

I'll give you a bell now to explain :laughing5:
