I don't get it

Thu Jan 12, 2012 1:07 am

I was reading on another board about last night's game. Now, years ago when we were in Europe we considered a 1-0 defeat in an away leg a fair enough result. We'd have in our mind we would take them apart at home.

You are a couple of points off the top, a semi final which could go either way and yet from what I read there are fans calling for certain young players heads! Don't you get it you are supposed to be supporters and not art critics?

I know it's only a few people and they are more than likely youngsters who don't have many people who listen to them but I must admit it reflects badly on you as supporters. I am all for opinion but what will keep you happy?

Is it just 5 months with a new team and a new manager? You should be running around kissing the arses of the owners, manager and players.

Hope you take Palace apart at your place.

LOL welcome to Wales all or nothing down here Hero one day Villian the next. It may seem harsh but its how we work its a cultural thing not just at football ive seen egg chasers praise a rugby player as a god one week and then want to cave his head in with a shovel the next.

That's us city fans for you!! I agree, I'm quietly confident going into the next leg, i think palace will negatively come to defend their slender lead, and an early goal from us will upset their plan

Your right in certain things u have said in your post!!!
Cheers for the good wishes apart beating them at our place, let's hope so!!!

As some of the others have said it's the expectation in South Wales of what is a big club and a lot see us as under achieving because, well, we are Cardiff City :lol:

In terms of Malky being in place 6 months or so, he has done fantastically well, and come tea time Saturday if West Ham and Southampton slip up and we beat Donny we will be top!!

But some will still moan cos we wont be ten pts clear!!

As for the Semi-Final.....we do have a great chance but so do Palace!!!
It will be dramatic that's for sure!!

Good luck to u for the rest of the season, you are clearly punching well below your weight in terms of where u sit in the league, must be frustrating!!!
I'm sure you can win a lot more games, especially against anyone in the top six!!!
