MATCH THREAD: " CARDIFF CITY v PRESTON " MATCH THREA

H-T 0-0

Another boring half

Really bad game.

Both teams awful, but they've created more than us.

Just awful. No wonder the stadium is empty. No pace or energy. Relegation quality at the moment

I think we shade the first half, not much in terms of chances but we’ve had 1 or 2 half chances.

How is McCann not booked, screaming at the ref after his first foul, kicked one and has committed 2 fouls since then with no booking. Forkjaer should have had a red

Worse than watching paint dry!
But in an effort to be positive…. Alnwick Bagan and Rhino have had solid and competent games so far. And our attack…. No comment!

Absolutely atrocious game of football. The quality is shockingly bad. Not one player has done anything of note.

We don’t even look like scoring ffs.

It took 20 minutes for me to even notice Robinson was on the pitch, at least Meite is trying to win the ball at both ends of the field.

It's just not enjoyable to watch is it .A nothing half so many errors and so negative.
The second half needs to be way way better .
Do we want to win or not .
So far not
Let's hope for much better

It's baffling how a group of players who actually do have some quality there are so bad as a unit.
A manager's job in any walk of life is to enable their team to perform, and we frankly haven't had that since Warnock. Also it says something about our coaching that we alternate season on season being quality on set pieces to being dire on them. We are sleepwalking to relegation and without a significant change in approach we will be mired in lower leagues.

Would have liked Riza to make a change half time. To make a statement e.g.” If you don’t give 100% you dont play for me”.
Surely Reindorf should be on.

Come in Riza let’s see this attacking football you promised

0-1

We deserve that.

Offered nothing in these 48 minutes.

Chambers costing us points again. He is shockingly shite

No goals in us tonight. Play any style of football you want, we simply haven’t got the players.

We're going down simple as that. The team are are not good enough and we deserve it

School boy stuff.
Another team that have struggled doing well against us .
Can show some intention to come back and win now

Greenwood this time with the effort, but drags it wide.

Get Robinson off now, it's like playing a man down.

Riza Riza "Riza, sort it out" come the chants from the stands.

Is Riza still a temporary manager? I think he'll be sacked by February

This is an absolute joke. Being outcrapped by a Preston team who were devoid of any confidence until they rock up against us.

No goals in us tonight. Play any style of football you want, we simply haven’t got the players.

Cleared off the line! Ng is found by a cross and heads towards goal, but Whatmough's header clears it off the line

Meite just looks at the defender get the ball off the line. Dive in to him you lazy one.

Triple sub.

Rinomhota off for Ralls.

Meite off for Willock.

Bagan off for El Ghazi.

Get Reindorf on for Robinson

How can you make 3 substitutions but leave Robinson on the pitch. GET HIM OFF NOW

No shape, no clue….

Began off and CO’D to LB…..

And people wanted Riza as our manager….

El Ghazi and Willock have livened things up. Both send shots off from the edge of the area, with El Ghazi's forcing the save.
