Who would want to replace a defender when 3-0 down? :roll:

It was mainly to show Malky how stubborn he had been recently to not include a striker on the bench.
Should have been done when 2-0 down

totally agree why would we want to defend a defeat?

when 2/3 goals down you have no choice but to all out attack!

It was embarrasing tbh.

You get given a choice at 3-0 down, support your team and encourage them or get on your teams back. They chose the latter by basically calling for Millers head and for "Super Sub" Earnie to come on.

Yeah they got their wish and we changed out style of play but come on, it was embarrasing chanting for Earnie to come on when Miller was losing in the air. Whats Earnie gonna do? Jump 13 foot to win the ball? :shock:

How can someone have more faith in a player that hasnt been included over a player that is playing week in week out? Its just stupidity in my opinion.

Who plays lone striker better? Miller. 1-0
Who has a better goal to game ratio? Earnshaw. 1-1
Who has better link up play? Miller. 2-1
Who has a better weak foot? Miller 3-1
Who makes better runs? Miller 4-1
Who has a better footballing brain? Miller 5-1
Who assists more? Miller 6-1

Miller is a better player. Thats why he is starting over Earnshaw. Deal with it.

You'd swear that if we had Bellamy back and he had a bad game people would be calling for freakin Parkin to replace him!!

Yes the cunts who were singing for earnshaw when our defence was shat all game

Re: Theres some clueless fans in the canton

Tue Mar 13, 2012 11:28 pm

"the player who's been playing week in week out"! that's just the point he is fuckin knackered as are a lot of the team.The squad is small and the same old players are being used over and over again.Very tired and weak looking players tonight,which begs the question of strenghthening.

well maybe if miller weren't too busy concentrating on all the above he would find the net to me you described a centre forward not a striker so i will stick with my original comment

i have more faith in earnie than miller to grab goals. my opinion or should i change it because it isn't the same as yours?

Re: Theres some clueless fans in the canton

Its a strikers job to focus on more than just scoring goals. You cant expect a striker to score every single game they play, if they did they would be in the prem or playing for Barcelona.

Miller is a striker. A LONE striker. A striker that links up the play and requires GOOD SERVICE from the TEAM to be able to create chances and score. Otherwise, he uses the rest of his talents to get assists for the team. Thats what Miller does and by far is he better than anybody at Cardiff City at doing that.

Earnshaw is good at what he does best. Poach. Give him space in the 18 yard box and he will hit the target. Put a defender in front of him pressuring him however and he will be a deer in headlights. His link up play is poor, he would prefer the spectacular and the glory rather than assisting a team mate (as he has done this season already).

Your opinion is your opinion. But to say Earnshaw will get us more goals judging on his goal ratio this season is not really justifying your opinion as Earnshaw has not been given the same amount of games as Miller.

Earnshaw could have been the starting striker and gone on a 10 game goal drought with Miller having Earnshaws current ratio this season, would you have faith in Miller to grab us goals over Earnshaw then?

Tue Mar 13, 2012 11:54 pm

Reason why we got a chant going is basically we were 3-0 down and hardly any shots on target we needed to change it up and ditch this stupid 4-5-1 we play at home wtf like!!!!

Re: Theres some clueless fans in the canton

Tue Mar 13, 2012 11:58 pm

We've played 4-5-1 majority of the season. Playing it at home doesnt make a difference to playing it away. Its our STRONGEST formation. You want us to revert back to 4-4-2? That formation everybody bitched and moaned about us using too much under DJ? No? Then keep quiet and let the manager get on with it instead of chanting embarrasingly.
