You lucky buggers.

You lot are going to enjoy have Nooney in your ranks. He is a real character and works really hard. He is quality at getting around players. Full backs hate him because they end up getting yellow cards when they play against him because he is so skilled with the ball and so quick at the same time. He will become the favourite of a lot of your fans in the coming weeks.

Congratulations on such a good signing. I just hope we get a good target man with the money from him.

Cheers mate.Obviously your manager needs the money to stengthen where he sees fit and I'm glad Noone is in our tent pissing out rather than the other way around so to speak.

looking forward to seeing him play.


Brighton fan, would you say he chips in with enough goals/attempts at goals?

whats his crossing like?

He doesn't score very often but he has set up quite a lot. His crossing is quite decent but it went downhill after he had half of last season of last season for an injury. But in the last two games it was decent and I think he has got better since last season.

cheers, is he a "get to the byline" sort of player?

only ask as we currently have conway, who has no pace and cant beat a man, but always cuts inside to deliver a cross, and tends to whip them in quite well.

He is great on the byline. But he is quite unpredictable as to where he will go when he has the ball which plays havoc with full backs.

no i dont boo my team ,but i dont like the style of football malkys been playing ,we have so many options yet he keeps playing 4-5-1...he has enough options of players to play 4-4-2 and even 4-4-3 but doesnt.

4-4-3 ?? have we been given international clearance to play an extra outfield player? we'll walk the league :ayatollah:

Haha comedy gold! I reckon we'll finish top 2 if we play that 4-4-3 formation. We've played 3 games. We had no pace at bristol city, no wingers. That's why we couldn't do nothing. A tactical mistake by malky, but don't go jumping down his throat for gods sake. There's plenty of games left. We're Cardiff city, not Chelsea

Re: You lucky buggers.

Thu Aug 30, 2012 12:45 pm

4-4-3 would be brilliant if only the ref wouldn't count up the teams at the start of the game...

Noone sounds like a Chris Burke sort of player, unpredictable but exciting noonetheless (see what I did there?? - sorry :D )

One thing I haven't seen mentioned, this is the first time in years we've actually been spending proper transfer money, it's a very strange feeling indeed!

Thanks mate. Often fans are bitter about players when they leave. Quite refreshing to hear some good things about a departing player!

All the best in your pursuit of 2nd place. ;)

I can't see him going to be honest. He is our biggest ever signing at 3.5 million (or around that area, it's the usual case of signing a player, no one really knows for how much) so they would have to pay at least that. And our team has been built up to suit him now after he had such a disappointing season.

Every team has a bad day. And how is watching hoofball every weekend? Down at Brighton, we get to watch nice attractive football in a wonderful stadium. You have no such luck with that. And bearing in mind that you had a premiership budget last season in the championship, how was not romping it, like you should have with that budget and team. But you didn't romp the league, because you all you do is hoof it down the field.
