We're very nearly a decent lower mid-table team.....

Leon wasn't very happy when he was subbed threw all the toys out of the pram! :lolol: Mc ghee was fuming at leon about 5 minutes before he bought him off because reid played a ball down the line out of defence and no one was there, mc ghee felt knight should have worked the line better and so did bob booker and leon wasnt having any of it, just turned the other way, i would think thats why mc ghee bought him off.

Do wonder what game some people on here are watching. Seb was poor tonight, he has been excellent this season but tonight I thought he had his worse game for the Albion.

Frutos on the other hand was MOM in my opinion, followed by McShane. Henderson nearly signed off with one of the best saves I ever seen, shame about the rebound.

How people can slag off Knight when he was at the heart of nearly every decent move we had is beyond me.

People slag leon off because he often appears to swagger around rather than closing down etc although imo his work rate has improved a lot this season and last. CKR seems to have a bit of the leon swagger about him as well, i know all really good players, and especially goalscorers, have it but at vital moments they seem uninterested (is that a word?!)

It was a lack of respect shown by leon to turn away and not listen to the advice of his manager. Mc ghee did also mention on SCR that he felt leon and colin tired towards the end and failed to hold the ball up as effectively, could have been a combination of both him being tired and the incident with mc ghee, just seemed strange he opted to sub knight rather than CKR or Jake which he has usually done this year.

Frustrating tonight, but a fair result.

Congratulations to Glen Hoddle, tactical genius :clap: :clap: Without his goal-machine strikers, he then leaves out his most telented player Seol who was instrumental in taking 4 points off us last year.

I'm scratching my head as to where that decision situation came from.... :nono:

Much as I love him for his all round effort and commitment, a video of Paul Reid's passes out of defence this evening would make truely horrific viewing!

He's not left footed is he.

Well, McGhee left it tonight and as good thing too - shame he wasn't as firm with CKR, who I'm not sure has quite the maturity yet to work flat out for 90 minutes. But it's giving an opening to the Argie..............

So true, feel sorry for him though because at right back his distribution is solid and his game when we signed him was actually as a semi creative midfield player (best we had at the time), certainly not even a right back let alone a left back!

Agree about freddie getting closer to a chance. Interesting call on the phone in saying that maybe target men would work with our wide men functioning so well, a certain mark mc cammon was even mentioned!

If you're talking about when mc ghee had a go at knight then the ball out of defence from reid was one of the best ones of the night just a knock down the line as he was under some pressure, leon stood in the centre circle rather than working the line as mc ghee wants his strikers to do, thats why he got annoyed.

I thought Leon did well tonight and was purely frustrated by the lack of support.

They have the points on the board, rather be in that situation

They'll fall away, they always do. Those Cardiff lot aren't the biggest morose fuckers around for no reason, it's Pavlovian training supporting their shit team season after season :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:
