Maybe if he didn't then he'd visibly show how upset he was.
He's certainly started the season well, and will have enjoyed having his name sung last night.

Ned, I was really pleased last night to hear Ole's name sung

I know Maynard got the winner, the ball was going in anyway, he should surely have picked ALF or Guerra up front. Maynard had a shocker.
What was Gunnarrson doing out wide? In fact why was he playing?
What was Daehli doing on the pitch against that Wigan formation?
Why was Whittingham playing; he only takes corners and the odd pot shot?
He has to work out his best X1 before some team makes better use of the possession they have had in the 3 league games. Thankfully he has got a solid defence but the midfield are constantly giving away possession.
Perhaps the training sessions should concentrate on ball retention, passing accurately and making space for passes.
Delighted with 7 points but wholly underwhelmed with the 3 performances.

Ok, I'll bite.
Maynard - offered more than people are giving him credit for. He works hard, both he and Jones were putting pressure on their back four. That can have a big impact on defenders. The ball probably wouldn't go in, as I think it was meant as a pass to Maynard.
Gunnarsson - I have criticised him a lot, he does have poor games. But last night wasn't one of them. Made a few mistakes but was otherwise solid.
Daehli - he is a clever player and I think that Ole wasn't sure if Pilkington could do 90 minutes yet so best to play Daehli in the first half. He always tracks back too and worked well with Brayford.
Whittingham - that's just ridiculous. Whitts is one of our best players, arguably one of the 20 best players in the division. He offers vital experience too.
It is good that Ole rotates. It keeps players fresh and raring to go. We have, IMO, the strongest squad that we have ever had in my years watching City so there is quality all over the squad.

Last season when we were losing week after week and not just losing,but at times being humiliated on the pitch, Ole kept on smiling and continued to be cheerful and kept his dignity,even at the player of the year night,Ole had time for everyone and kept saying he was excited about this coming season. Fair play to him as before Ole joined us,most of his career has been nothing but success,so this must if been a might shock to him.
What he must of been going through deep down,none of us will prob ever really know,Ole has since said he had, had continuos sleepless nights last season.
Now On the forums Ole took stick and especially from myself,I still feel I was right to as they were awful displays last season.
But as fans we never turned on Ole at the matches![]()

Ole came over to the fans at every home and away game last season and applauded us no matter how much it hurt,many managers would storm of and forget the fans.
This Summer Ole has been given full support, money wise and in my opinion it looks like Ole has spent well and brought together the best Cardiff City squad I've ever seen![]()

This season,I was expecting non stop attacking football and a weak defence,but so far quite the opposite, the defence has looked pretty good, yes when we've gone forward we have taken our chances,but not as many chances created or goals as I thought,but we have secured the points and that's to me what matters most![]()
4 games gone and 3 wins and a draw would satisfy most managers or fans. A lot can still happen and there will be many ups and downs along the way thus season.
Myself personally I am still reserving my judgement on how the season will go,but so far I am loving every minute if it and it certainly looks like us fans are in for an exciting season ahead.
