Cardiff City;Etheridge; Richards, Morrison, Manga, Bamba, Bennett; Ralls, Grujic, Hoilett, Wildschut; Zohore

Subs: Murphy, Halford, Damour, Paterson, Mendez-Laing, K Harris, Pilkington.


For me this was a tough away game and a draw away was a good result :thumbright:

Wednesday created more than Cardiff City in chances but City had a lot of good possession and deserved the away point :bluebird:

So happy over all with the draw :thumbright: :bluebird:

Warnock will be happy :thumbright: :bluebird:

Definitely a good result.

We could have won it but also easily lost it. Etheridge made some good saves and won us the point.

Come on annis Cardiff were terrible the 2nd half They had problems even taking a free kick properly and struggled to get past the first man.

We started the game so well and that's when we. Needed the goal. I think had we scored then we would have managed the rest of the game with fast counter attacks. Agree decent point

Didn’t take our chances when we were on top for the first 30 minutes. 2nd half we very really poor and were barely in it.

Poor Wednesday side over came a slow start and should have won.We need a striker ASAP!
In all honesty pre game should take 3ponts but take a point at tbe end,

1st half fine could have scored, 2nd half we were awful giving ball away and wayward passing took until 75min with subs before gained a bit of control bit still could have lost. :old:

Shocking display! We couldn't string 2 passes together! Don't think any player broke a sweat!

I agree with the op, good first half poor second but we look like us again and 4 points and 2 clean sheets keeps us in the mix. It's so hard away in this division. We will get better. Zohore poor again for me. New boys struggled but will get better.

Every player was poor!! Zahore was the best of a bad bunch tonight!

Wednesday is a place where we always seem to lose by the odd goal, it is a bogey ground so a 0-0 draw when we played awful has to be a good result.

First 25 minutes very good but after that we were lucky to come away with a point. Again NW should have made changes earlier as you could see the two new players were way off the pace in the second half.

I am fortunate to get detailed stats of the game - it is always interesting to see what posters comment about players and then review against factual stats -

Some posters very knowledgable and some think they are but talk utter poo :lol:

Your right about changes but it's been said before they come to late in game! When made changes on 80 mins again! We looked better why the faff can't he do that on 70mins or earlier. :thumbup:

There are no easy games in this league. That was a hard earned away point, and probably a fair reflection of the game. That point could be an important one at the end of the season.

its frustrating , but it does actually work..well at least the stats point to it working with us picking up the most points from goals in the last 10 mins.

Confused by that game. We had early spell of 25/30 mins if class were we looked amazing. 40 mins if being crap and clueless and the rest was filled with meh.

Thought Zohore was good. holding up using his size to muscle players off and he has a decent pass and cross. But when he has the ball out wide we lack threat in the box, i think we be better playing 2 upfront

I suspected a poor performance, one eye on the Man City FA cup friendly unfortunately!!!

Zohore and Etheridge and the new boys did quite well first half, and we had a good so disallowed, but 2nd half was very poor.

Don’t want to slag him because he’s been brilliant this year, but Bamba was way off his usual high standards !!
