" That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

That is indefensible. I'm furious after that - it is the first time for a while I've believed relegation is a real possibility.

And you know what? We got exactly what we deserved.

Fans in the stadium sounded angry and I don't blame them one bit.

First half was dreadful with it only getting a tiny bit better in the second half.

We took the lead with a lucky shot, but then just let them back into the game and they got their win - which they deserved.

It was an abject performance in a really important game.

I could defend Riza when we were losing to top four teams but not here. Him and the team absolutely let everyone down tonight and it is so costly.

There can be no excuses tonight, we didn't turn up and that is nowhere near good enough.

Make no mistake, we are right in the shit now.

So much so, I would not be surprised if Tan pressed the panic button tonight - nobody now would blame him.

Useless bunch of cowards

People keep saying it's the manager & not the players but they could hardly string 2 passes together & they are just as much to blame as the manager. Time for a huge clear out of both the back room & the players.

Game management was non existent. This sits squarely with Riza tonight. No tempo aside from 10 mins at start of second half. Same old same old. Robinson his usual lazy self when he came on.
We are in deep trouble

Garbage.

Not much more I can say.

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

He is clearly clearly taking us down.
Get him gone NOW .give us a fighting chance.
Even if its the Barry town manager.
Get him gone

We are finished. Riza needs sacking tonight. It's the only hope. There are no excuses. The first half was beyond awful and yet again we concede two goals. We deserve to go down. 100%. So angry tonight. Forget Tan that's all on Riza. Absolute clown.

The manager ain't good enough and never had been as a manager nore is the squad nothing will change it don't matter who's at the helm it's rotten from the very top down. Has been for years . What next Riza gone and purse steps up it's embarrassing at best :oops:

For me we've been deep in the shit since pompey away, you could just see that riza was so far out of his depth and it's just getting worse, there's no doubt we are going down with him in charge and I'm absolutely gutted what a shit show this club has become

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Tue Mar 11, 2025 9:38 pm

What made me laugh is I don’t actually think the fans care anymore, hardly anyone booing or calling for rizas head, are we just going to accept it that we are going down, the club don’t care, the fans don’t care, who cares?

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Riza needs to be sacked tonight! The years of lack of investment have finally caught us up. Relegation is highly lightly under Tan. Tan out!

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Need to find someone to come in now to finish the season (maybe stay up by some miracle) if not have the rest of season to see who to get rid of and the whole summer to start a rebuild. Piss poor tonight made Luton look so comfortable

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Tue Mar 11, 2025 9:41 pm

Ive been quite neutral to Riza.

Tonight I've flipped. That was disgraceful. Anyone see him taking a backseat to Purses f*cking laminated book.

Sack him! He'll take us down.

We need a new manager bounce ASAP.

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Tue Mar 11, 2025 9:41 pm

I really think only warnock is the only one out there who could produce a miracle to keep us up and that would be some miracle :banghead:

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Tue Mar 11, 2025 9:42 pm

The lack of urgency and movement is inexcusable.They weren’t much better but stupid mistakes have cost us the game again .Unless someone is available you can’t change the manager either ,I despair :banghead:

He's done it before, I just wouldn't give him a long contract

Absolutely bottled a golden opportunity soft weak team.
First half was pathetic. No structure in are play slow and clueless tonight a very very poor performance when it mattered.
I've said for ages we will go down Portsmouth qpr Sheffield Wednesday all moving up the league Coventry aswell.
Luton and derby winning games .
And we look done and have done for a long time .it's woeful football they lack everything needed to be able to win games .
We are terrible and tonight said it all.
Any fan that thinks we are OK and riza is doing a good job is just as pathetic as our team .
Embarrassed again tonight this is not what cardiff city is all about

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Tue Mar 11, 2025 9:44 pm

We will go down under Riza, it's that simple. Yes the players are to blame too but their lack of shape, lack of confidence and lack of tactics are on him. It is unbelievable that he is still there. 4 wins in 23 now isn't it?

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Tue Mar 11, 2025 9:45 pm

A luton team who have not scored away since 1st of feb...and not won away since September 14th 2024.
We basically handed them the key to survival alongside Derby.
Plymouth i feel will struggle to escape even though they are 6 points from us with them playing tomorrow night.

Poor game from us. Lack of control lack of quality and lack of intercity.
Rambo looked disappointed to come off with an injury.

Our club might need to go down to come back up even stronger, without tan and co in charge.

Come on Tan wake up and smell the coffee, get rid of Riza the buffoon now, Meite on instead of Ashford that move got me going for my blood pressure tablets again tonight, absolute dire.

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Tue Mar 11, 2025 9:47 pm

Riza needs to go tonight after that. Luton are dreadful, and we are staring relegation in the face!

The squad is good enough, the coaching staff haven’t got a clue!
Need him gone now to stand any chance.

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Tue Mar 11, 2025 9:47 pm

What's happened to Ashford to keep being overlooked as well? Game was crying for some pace, Alves was having some luck. Throwing Ashford on the other wing to give pace on both sides would of given Luton something to think about but Willock comes on who's done next to f**k all for us

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

This season just needs to end, we have flirted with relegation all year. Riza and his coaching crew haven’t got a clue. If he was sacked though, he would only be replaced with Darren purse.

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Riza is showing he'd be out of his depth in a puddle ffs

After he scored last game i had no idea why Issac Davies never started the game to give us pace up front.

Re: " That is indefensible and we are deep in the shit "

Tue Mar 11, 2025 9:48 pm

Pathetic performance. Riza has to go tonight and just hope we get a bounce otherwise we’ll just go down with a whimper and that it’s unacceptable.

And there lies the problem. That idiot does not know what to do.

You still think Riza is the man to take us on next season.
Tonight was another piss poor performace at home played by 2 teams who were rubbish,not a shot on target first half.
We are seriosly in the shit if any teams catch us we will go down theres no fight in team NO leaders
