That was a reality check. I think DJ is hurting big time, judging by that interview.

in a strange way hes right, i think the problem is defence the attacking players know they need 2 score 2 or more goals because we are always letting in sloppy goals. more pressure on bellers bothroyd etc either drop hudson and try blake and riggot or grind out results till jan. sort are defence out and we will be on fire.

The guy who played as a defender still can't sort out the defence?

He brought in Hudson, Gyepes, Naylor. Blake is ok for a few games here and there as a stand in, not to be your regular CB.

I think DJ is right too, Our defence will cost us again and again. Darcy is not a centerback, We need Riggot and someone fresh.

To be honest and you won't like it DJ is right.
The Cardiff City messageboarders and I'm one of them seem to want to know
every little thing what goes on at the club,
What players had for breakfast,who said what to whom and when.
Are clubs mesageboards as intense as ours?
I don't know I don't go on them.

I personally don't want to know what players had for breakfast. If the news gets out, it gets out.

I'm more concerned with DJ yet again looking around for anything and everything to blame other than himself.

Come on.DJ sorted the defence out.Risdale made him sell them.
Loovens-Johnson.Gunter.
F..ked up Alexander's contract.

Look at the other players we've lost.
Jerome Earnie Ramsey.
DJ has been paddling against the tide since he came here.

thats very good point

The defence being blamed again..

We've scored one goal in the last 3 home games, and that came in injury time yesterday

We aren't going to win games if we don't score goals

He is not looking to blame anyone for anything, that's his point.

We are second in the league and to be honest there wouldn't be an inquest from me unless we were worse off than last season.

His point is not one of blame, it's that some are trying to find fault and apportion blame when there is no need.

Spot on, who is he blaming, he said the fans have the right to do what he wants, praised the players for keeping going for the full game. If anything he is trying to support the players publicly at least

found that interesting, he looks very frustrated, i guess its true what he says in that all dressing rooms have disagreements and fans expect way too much....... 2nd in the league after the run we've had, things could def be alot worst, any player worth their salt as the saying goes will want to get into the preimership, i'm looking forward to the new year, some great games coming up and some new players coming in and 8 months away from premiership football coming to the CCS..... :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

So he's not blaming those horrible outside influences who are destabilising the club, then?

No I dont think he was?
He doesnt comment on that in relation to the game at all.
He was pointing its not as bad as people think, dont think he mentioned that in any relation to the game. IF anyhthing he is showing a united front of the club, praising the players and management as I would expect from the manager.

He isnt even making the excuse about players.

yes there have been some unbelievable players at this club in the past and a far better defenders dj

Can't we as fans do our bit by having 15 mins before game to build the up the atmosphere and also have a ban on telling our own players to f..k off when they are ten yards away!!!! that's bound to help!!!

The guy is loosing it. Who the hell is he to question the legends that have played for this club :evil: He has no idea of our history who we have idolised. Sort yourself out DJ before having a go mat us.

Re: I Think He Means You, Carl.
