Yep -and that reflects the fact that our errors leading to that goal were because we were going for a win still . On Monday, Palace had the win, what they wanted, in their grasp.. their errors were in a team that had been trying to see the game out! : both avoidable but one smacks of being...

I think some of us who were slightly earlier out than others had a slightly different, and better experience.. the same situations described as above, walking next to opposition fans, unsegregated at the station but everyone was pretty quiet and no issues (albeit surpising that there was no...

along with ...."player X should never get near the first XI!!"

Large slice of humble pie for me please.. so pleased to be wrong with my Cardiff-winning-0-2 prediction! Fantastic result for the players and the Club. Just thought a Mick McCarthy side packed with experience and physicality would dominate a young, inexperienced side..

Gary Williams vs. Nott'm Forest!!

I always think its a shame that The league cup kicks off so early - this is not one we need to worry about with the squad in a delicate position. It will mean more to Cardiff than us, and they will nick it..

This is the risk and the opportunity that GP deals with almost every game I think. Remember Gross played right-back vs Rashford at Old Trafford.. If we play well, keeping the ball, then we negate that threat to a greater degree (pretty well vs. Zaha for example) . As you say , the risk is going...

Genuinely stunned by this.. only yesterday whiled away the best part of an hour looking at the YouTube clips of 8 out of 10..does Count Down.. "Sean, your greatest achievements?" "Well there was the time I went seal clubbing..." had me in tears. So terribly sad at any age, but at 58, terrible.

I remember it , but being 10 at the time, it is a bit of a blur. It was the first time that I had seen us hammered by anyone, and I remember feeling wierd - excited to see players who were household names and who had won the FA Cup in that amazing game vs. Man Utd a matter of weeks before...

Ha! Mine too was Rovers, but THAT game as part of the Russell Slade Great Escape and the Gary Hart show! I was due to be travelling from head office in Guildford up to Leeds for meetings the following day. Left Guildford about 4pm and as I drove towards the M4 Junction on the M25, made a snap...

As others have said, ben White in a back 4 is not yet playing to his strengths. His obvious weakness is in the air, and in a 4 that is a real challenge. Arteta must surely have known this and I would expect him to change things in time. .. That said, White can handle himself to some degree...

Watch the Pundit narrative shift through the season... August/September : "refreshing, good to watch, brave, they'll be OK" , October/November : "sticking to their principles, courage" Christmas Onwards : "Naive, poor, can't defend like that, In trouble".

Both are possible but relegation more likely surely? Trying to predict the league placings, I found it almost impossible to decide from 11 down. To finish top 10 we would need Leeds, West Ham, Everton or Villa to have a shocker vs. last season - I think they were all +10 points from 12th placed...

0-0, last on MOTD and everything back to normal.... lovely, can't wait! (genuinely can't wait!)

Not sure there has been consistent calls that a striker wouldn't be needed from Swanny.. he argued through last season that the strikers are not necessarily the only solutions we should focus on and more goals from midfield was another angle and a greater differentiator vs. clubs above us. Well...

Oh and cricketers not wearing helmets..

"Screw-in Studs?" Yep, and the more gawdy the studs were, the better! Buying a replica kit was impossible.. literally impossible (until Bukta BHA kit arrived! ) A season ticket with loads of tear-out tickets and included Cup games!! GK picking up a pass-back and then bouncing it down to the...

Like it .. black shorts also good.. missed opportunity with the badge from the looks of it.. black and white looks odd on that?

Very disappointed but not hurt and as someone else has posted, no "hard-luck" stories in terms of decisions or incidents to blame so that helps vs. previous experiences. I would have felt differently had Jorghino scored his penalty and won it for them , as I , and no doubt many others thought he...

Bedlam Brewery IPA .. I only discovered this recently..(is it Ok to admit that I prefer it chilled? My Dad refuses to believe that's a good thing to do!) I always have to drink early as I cant sit still while watching..
