Discipline

Sorry if this has been posted previously but only just seen yesterdays Western Mail.

It looks like we are top of the discipline table. The only teams with equivalent number of yellow cards are Cov and Soton but both those have had a few red cards - we havent. Teams like Brighton and Leeds have significantly more yellows.

Two issues - firstly i think this is a sign of Malkys influence in the dressing room. He takes no shit - and importantly the team are still getting stuck in and competing. Secondly as the season wears on, this should bear fruit as we have less suspensions.

Sorry to be so positive - couldnt help it when i saw the table!

Well we are doing well in the league and with the Discipline!

Got to give a big hand to Kiss and Gunnarsson because they are both the same kind of players with using their strength and like to get a foot in but they being going in more fairly because we concdeeded a few when they started together but being taclking fair espically Kiss because hes clumsy! :lol: :ayatollah:
