  • No shortage of effort but we've laboured to stay level. Bolton are nothing special, hopefully we can find a way.

    Terrible game so far.  Looking forward to the 2nd half and sitting in silence for the next 15 minutes whist I watch the match statistics play on loop on sky

    Ref bottled it because he’d only just booked him 
    Wouldn’t be surprised if Bolton take him off at half time knowing he’s one away from a red 
  • has Leaburn won a header yet!?

    Versus

    We are piss poor

    I’ve heard before that stats are meaningless…

    Thought we looked ok. Got the ball in lots of good areas in the final third and then completely devoid of any quality cross, cutback or through ball.

    loads of crosses and absolutely none of them near a 6ft7 striker

    Sky commentator has just mentioned "the speedy Thierry Mitchell" 🤣

    YES  !!

    Cardiff score when a Millwall player was lying on the floor injured.

    I'd like to see Kanu pressing their defence

    Poor game…..about the only half decent thing I can say is it’s an improvement from Saturday…..mind you, that couldn’t be difficult to achieve.

    Referee is not letting any minor challenges go, so it's stop start and typical for referee who takes thar stance, when a second yellow is obvious he bottles it. Just let the game flow you cock.

    What do you expect from Sky...🤷‍♂️
  • Having two wide centre backs that are poor with the ball is not going well for us.
  • Hope we see Edwards at LCB Small at LWB and Ramsay at RWB in the near future

    Would love to see Edwards at LCB when Ramsay is fit enough to start 
  • Two teams struggling to score,  we have had one shot on target all half!. too much head tennis, and the pass accuracy looks poor from us. Need's a big improvement second half.

    Just not cohesive and don't think Leaburn enjoys the lone striker roll.
    Do we have a bench that can change it?

    Charlotte is a talented broadcaster but is absolutely not a commentator, and seems to be in awe of Brownie. I feel sorry for anyone following on audio only. There was a spell of about 2 full minutes with the ball in play when they just chuntered along with each other. Something needs to be done about this, we pay enough. Basic rule: if the ball’s in play,  commentate the action.

    I’m sorry, but Gillesphey is having yet another mare of a game. 
    We’re lucky to still be in this, but where is the energy, where is the press? Need changes or I can see this drifting towards a 1-0 defeat. 
    It’s a really poor game of football.

    Could be the game for Aneke here. Their back 3 isn’t the biggest so he could come on and bully them a bit

    Not enjoying this. Feels like watching the clueless Charlton of last pretty much the last ten seasons.

    Bring on DK! Possibly for Miles, would be good to have another willing runner up there with TC

    Real chance of a smash and grab if we can cut out mistakes at the back. COYA!

    Another 1st 45 goes by without us scoring.

    Game is there for the taking if we step up ! Hopefully we see one of our 2nd half good performances. Chucks if he is in the mood will terrorise their defence

    What has happened? We look miles off it at the back in particular, I think the players are tired but utterly bizarre now we've gone from solid to shambles in a week 
    They can’t be tired. Surely.
