Well, its over. I don't begrudge West Ham the victory, I just wish we hadn't gone out with such a whimper

I am fully aware of the "LOL CARDIFF BOTTLING!" mong comments, slightly justified for that first half, it was a bottling performance on Dave Jones' level, Whittingham, our f*cking talisman was pathetic, he was class against Liverpool, but tonight there was a recurrance of his old choking methods. Gunnarsson was his usual shit self, Turner hoofed it at every opportunity, everyone except Blake, who was a f*cking animal tonight, Marshall, unlucky with a fluke goal, and .. thats it: was crap. Attendance was a f*cking joke, 23000 for a playoff? Christ, and some of our fans call Cardiff a big club. West Ham fans did my head in a bit singing "England", "Bubbles" and GSTQ non stop, but you can't control that so whatever. Malky's tactics were shit from the start, allowed them to get dominated and barely changed it until the 75th min. Cant believe people defend Earnshaw, he is a sack of shit, Miller cant hit a barn door either, drops off too much and his left foot.... non existant. Our lack of width and pace, something West Ham had from the poor man's Neymar, horribly exposed.

Was pretty funny when some kid ran on after we hit the side netting, though, brightened an otherwise gloomy night.

On a final note, I'm very pleased with our season given the huge changes that ocurred last year, 6th place and a cup final, had you said that to me in July I'd have laughed.

Agree with most of that but Gunnarsson was crap today but isn't usually like that imo he's one of our best players. I was quite embarrassed by the 23,000 attendance today. The whole midfield was none existent which meant that Miller had to drop back more or less to the defence to get the ball, he couldn't receive the ball and when he did he made two decent shots. We need to make the most of our chances and we failed to do that today.

I just don't get what people see in Gunnar, he is a workhorse like every other midfielder in our team bar Whitts/McPhail.

Yeah we weren't clinical, proper wastemen with the shots
