Special mention for the ball boy in the south east corner towards the end, who, right in front of the Cardiff fans, magnificently wasted time when we had a goal kick. Chapeau.

This. Whatever folk think of Warnock's style, it is effective.

But is it football??? It's based on avoiding open play, slowing the game down at every opportunity and reducing the game to a series of set pieces with the odd breakaway. It's desperate it's ugly it's anti-football it's Warnock.

Did a number on us, knew Dunk brings the ball out so made sure Duffy had the ball instead, stuck 2 on Knockaert and had the bonus of no Murray. Just shows what a good team we are to overcome them

More the bonus of no Bruno. Easy to stick two on Knockaert when the guy behind him is a centre back, put Bruno in that situation and it is harder to double up. Murray was missed, but it was this that really made their tactics easier to implement.

Just seen Warnock on Sky Sports. "We did really well tonight. I though their forward line were ineffective compared to what they usually are" Yes you complete prat. That's because BOTH of our regular starting strikers were missing. ****ing numpty.

Most negative side I have seen us play all season. Time wasting and feigning injury from the 1st minute. Got what they deserved in the end, no points.

Total agreement. Ugliest side I have seen at the Amex this season. Cheating, time wasting, having an ineffective ref to stop them. I feel cheated out of my admission money by that lot. No wonder no-one from Cardiff wants to watch them.

To be the fair the pass completion rate was 100% between the number 2 who would pick up the ball and the number 15 who he would pass it to before every throw.

Throw-in? You take it...
No, after you....
No no, you take it
Who me?
Yes you..
Ok, if your sure....
Yes I'm sure
Ok, I'll take it


Ooh, the ball's a bit damp
Here, let me dry it off for you first
Oh, am I taking it?
No, I am. Well, in a minute... hang on, I've got something stuck in my studs
Oh yes, a big lump of mud
Oh, gross
I feel faint, I think I should have a lie down in the middle of the pitch for a bit

Ad nauseum, stupid twats

Don't understand how anyone can moan about time wasting. It shows how good we are when teams do it at 0-0. To combat it we have to create more and score which we did eventually.

I thought Cardiff played a good game plan that nearly worked had it not been for the goal. We didn't create too much and they had spells in both half where we were under pressure. If they went for it and didn't time waste I feel we have more quality and would have created more and probably would have punished them.

We are top of the league, a point against us is a good result for most, expect this tactic more.

Wikipedia suggests he has managed 1355 games

If he's influenced 5 minutes per game of time wasting, he's so far overseen 75+ games of non-football.

If my rubbish maths stands up to scrutiny- the FA should charge him!

So did the lad in the south west shortly after, I think Sergeant Stockdale was giving them orders.

I hope they use the same tactics on Saturday.

I'll assume you are joking right?

Agree. Not helped by the officials who seemed more than happy to tolerate the time wasting.

Also agree. Stroud was simply awful, and endorsed the notion of turning up to a football match where the ball was in play for 60 minutes, with 15 of those in the air. In stark contrast, I want to credit Stuart Atwell on Friday, who called :lolol:'s captain over after about five minutes to indicate that if they continued the time-wasting nonsense, he'd start getting his cards out.

Although it will be more of the same from them when they go to Reading on Saturday and we'll be highly delighted if this approach helps them keep a clean sheet or even snatch a win !
