Match Thread Cardiff City v Everton- Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[davek]

If they drop points against Watford we can pretty much cut their title challenge off at the knees with a win, if City do their part of the bargain.

We're confident and within reach of a top 7 spot; they're nervous as kittens and on a bad run and cant score.

What a chance to put a big dent into their chances of the title.

A win or a draw.

Yeah but remember Everton is the team you play against to get your season back on track.

Isn't it wonderous that a 3-0 away win, against admittedly one of the poorer sides in the Premier League, gets so many negative posts on this forum. I know many of you say how much you hate Everton (yes you do, you say it all the time), but can't you at least give a little bit of praise to the team for once?

It's not me this time..

I'm a happy bunny tonight

That's true, and Pickford is a concern.

However, short of a red card, I dont see us losing.

Atkinson will gift them a dodgy pen if they need one. Count on it.

It's really a case, as always, of nobody doing anything silly, and that includes the ref. Unfortunately, the chances for something silly to happen in a derby game are high.
I just want the silliness to be in our favour for once.

Should start your own thread lads - 'pessimism self help thread'

Help needed nearer to home if your trawling through that many posts...

I love these strawman discussions after a game.
You said Jags can still play, that must mean you want him to play every game.
You said he shouldnt play every game, that must mean you want him boiled down for glue.

The best part is that the majority of both sides would actually realise they agree with each other that he still has a role play without being a first team regular, if only they would get their head out their @rses and actually listen rather than try to win an argument.

3 goals from 4 on target is good

Are staying over, as that’s one hell of a drive back ?

Plus Cardiff is great for a night out too - locals are generally sound and some nice old boozers too.

Luckily in this instance Cardiff is the closest away game to me as I live in the South West. What should be an hour and a half drive though took double that.

Mind you still much better than the 6 hours it took me to drive to Liverpool for the last home game I went to. Did that straight up and back after the match. Left the house at 11:30 am and got back at 02:45.

Totally agree about Cardiff being a great night out.

Am I right in thinking zonal marking was dropped for tonight's game?

Wondering if he is just incapable on a fitness front. Starts seasons well then drops alarmingly. Maybe drop him for a couple of weeks after the derby if he stays looking like a spare part.

Temperament; hes a big girlsblouse. Gana had a disappointment with his PSG thing but he still gets stuck in...temperament

 

[Abraders]

Delighted with a solid 3 nil win. Sounds like we played well in parts.

This will do wonders going into Sunday.

Coyb.

A very good movie called Human Traffic was set in Cardiff.
