Fabio is a liability, very poor defender, dives in and was deservedly sent off. For a player who played at the top level and on good wages we do not get value for money, really hopes he is gone in summer

City actually played better with 10 men . Leeds centre half excellent . Noone put some excellent crosses in from the right . Really unlucky with his free kick .
Man of match no shadow of doubt was the Leeds keeper who really was outstanding .
That really makes the point how well the City played .

It wasn't totally a bad night as only one of the top ten winning . Thanks also to the ex Swansea player Stephen Dobbie scoring in the 97th minute against Ipswich .


Noone, was quality tonight.

Fabio,very stupid tonight.

Leeds goalie had a good night.

We played well with 10 men.

I agree,but we lost 3 valuable points.

When the ref told him to get up he started walking or running nothing wrong with him. Also if it wasn't for him and a few other Leeds players Fabio would not have been sent off they practically forced the ref to send him off. Even with 10 men we outplayed the SCUM. Their goalie was time wasting from the 47th minute but the ref did nothing. Slade should have knocked out tht fat c**t Evans on the touchline squabble.
I really f*cking hate Leeds! We did not deserve to lose that tonight.


Leeds played like their nickname Dirty Leeds and got away with it.

Where was the crowd ? Really poor attendance considering it was the best position the City had been in for 18 months and the fact , Leeds brought nearly a 1,000 .

Re: MY VIEW/ OPINION " TONIGHTS CARDIFF GAME HAD IT ALL "

Game had everything except a decent referee as I thought he gave Leeds way to much leeway with the time wasting tactics.

Just a frustrating night which we need to park and forget aboutt. I'm sure the players will appreciate the ovation from the crowd at the end. Players gave everything for the cause and very very unlucky not to get something out of the game.

The shot was on target . Therefore it would not be credited to Fabio .


To be fair I told Annis to put it down as a Fabio own goal, thought it was. Annis didn't think it was.

Re: MY VIEW/ OPINION " TONIGHTS CARDIFF GAME HAD IT ALL "

Tue Mar 08, 2016 11:37 pm

Loved it tonight, even though we lost!! I am not blaming Fabio at all. He gives it his all. The rest of the team except Immers tackle like ballet dancers, no bite in the tackle. All we needed was one nailed on tackle and Leeds scum would have bottled it.
BUt the best part of the night was the fact that Dai Hunt turned up late...it was a lovely evening until he arrived!

Our City team though battled and tried. Immers never gives up, and that is the spirit of our team! Win, lose or draw..we fight to the very end!! Also when a bunch of us tried to sing and scream our hearts out we look around...and the rest of our fans..are sitting munching on their crisps..whilst Leeds fan goaded us?? What is with that?? I tell you what, it was better at Bristol away when we took over their ground non stop argy bargy, loving it!

WE NEED MORE YOUNGSTERS WHO ARE VOCAL AND LOUD!!!

BRING ON SATURDAY!!! CAN'T WAIT!!

Fabio won the ball for his second yellow. Probably not noticed at the time but having seen a replay the Leeds player knocked it down the line and Fabio got a toe to it to send it out for a throw before going down.

Ralls at fault for their first goal, didn't track back when they countered, had he done so he would've been ahead of Doukara. When will Cardiff fans stop rating him so highly?

All in all a good performance with no luck on our side. :sladein:

Thank you Mike, the Leeds player made a meal of it.
Ive watched it back and Fabio went for the ball.

It was an unbelievable and frustrating game which we lost due to a series of unfortunate incidents during the game and a goalkeeper playing the game of his life.

Even when we were down to 10 men we were the better side and had a real go in the final third of the game.

For me the lessons of the Brighton game were forgotten in the first hour with Whitts too isolated on the left in that frustrating 442 formation. And our movement up front was poor generally and errors crept in at vital times all over the pitch. The biggest positive for me apart from the superb O'Keefe was Craig Noone but cannot understand why he played on the right and Lawrence was pushed to the left. I always believe crosses from the byline are much more difficult to defend.

Luckily with the other results little damage was done to our play off aspirations

We must learn from last night and get it spot on for the must win game against Ipswich on Saturday

We gave our all last night and we should of never lost, our fans appreciated that,but now its a win nothing else v Ipswich as our fans won't be so kind.
We are very lucky regarding the other results :ayatollah:

Craig Noone looked good last night :thumbright: :thumbright:

I was right by it and didn't look like Fabio got any of the ball. At the time I knew it was a red as soon as he made the challenge. It was a stupid challenge.

We lost yes but that was mainly down to their Goalie, what a match he had !! I don't think the Ref was going to book Fabio until the Leeds player mob handed him, I don't blame him for missing the pen, but the Linesman jesus it was right in front of him, However i had a feeling after the first 10 minutes that we wern't going score and it was going to one of those days again, even though everyone gave 100% , we just didn't get the rub of the green.But what pleased the most last night was the Fans, they kept the players going and applauded the players off even though we lost, but let's make sure we keep in up the Teams needs us. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:
