[Albion] Cardiff City vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

We can still win this !

to your positivity!

This Cardiff team is there for the taking but as usual the negative Defensive slow build up away tactics have come back to bite us.....

If only we had kicked on once we went 1 up instead of sticking to these horrendous away tactics, we would not be in this position

Up at 5am for this, what a joke.

Are Cardiff the worst team ever in the Premier League?

I thought there was only one team in the game until the unlucky deflection that resulted in the equaliser and then the sending off. There is no way that we were shit before then imo, in fact we were doing pretty well imo.

Dear oh dear.

We'll really have no one to blame but ourselves if we don't come away with a win. Why in the name of god did we sit back and become so passive against the worst team I've seen in our time in the premier league. Why give them any encouragement at all? Why let them have any belief that they could get anything other than a sound beating from the match.

Now we find ourselves down to 10 against a team that scents blood and will bombard us in the second half.

The only thing we can cling to is that Cardiff genuinely are a very poor team. With ten men and our away record we're going to have to put a real shift in to even get a point out of the game. So so so frustrating.

But not surprising in the least unfortunately

 

[Sargey]

Murray off, Andone on soon

I think so. However, the thing is that Cardiff have to go for it - it's their big chance to win a game, so there could be opportunities for us on the break. Maybe Andone for Murray to give some more pace up front later on?

Weird as it is, I prefer watching us when we're 2-0 down. We attack like lions then.

 

[Gully Forever]

Must admit, Stephens was having to put in a lot of effort to win the ball in midfield with that dick kayal next to him.
maybe he would still be on the pitch if Bassouma had started ahead of kayal.

We can win this. We are great at set pieces. We need to win freekicks in dangerous areas, or corners.

That means we need to get possession, pass to our own players and be in the opposition half........... a big ask!

I hope you are right though.

They really do. We could very very easily slip down into the mire again. Our efforts on goal tally especially is appalling. Thank God for murray, so far...

 

[Mancgull]

The refereeing bias has been more pronounced with the fouls given against Murray and not against the Cardiff defenders. Best example was the 'handball' against Murray after a deflection from a yard away. Numerous other poor decisions. Think the red card was one that was possible, and for that it was a silly challenge from dale.

 

[Super Steve Earle]

Andone for Murray and Gyokeres for Izzy or Knocky. I'll trust the timing to Chris's superior judgement, but I still think this is very winnable. Remember we haven't lost a point after going in front so far this season.

So it’s acceptable because it’s not explicitly stated in the laws? Neither is punching a player in the face, not a red? I’d say your logic is a bit wonky.

Any player who slides in or raises their leg to win the ball has their ‘studs up’.

The referee has to interpret whether the action endangers the opponent. Atkinson’s interpretation in this instance was wrong as Cunningham was not endangered.

CH is still the manager you know, don't get your hopes up.

This. Don't think there has been a single corner this game - surprising.

Cardiff deserve to lose just based on the goal celebration
