Waghorn has done nothing but be offside and lose the ball. Waste of a signing.

He looks like a player out of tune with his teammates; he did a couple of feints, a dodgy pass to nobody, and that’s it really

Robins bottled going for that, we wont get play offs if we dont actually take a chance. We left Gyokeres up top on his own with very little support and then he got frustrated and did nothing second half. The highlight of the match was the full time whistle, absolute dross

Out of this team, Gustavo Hamer will go on to have the best career.

Really not happy about that. Robins picked the wrong team, far too defensive and Dabo clearly not ready. Taking Sheaf off just dragged Hamer back and made us even less effective going forwards. Still got five men back when they’d long given up trying to score.

I’d honestly throw Panzo up front in games like that for the last ten minutes. Tavares isn’t going to do shit against ten men behind the ball, Waghorn was crap, Vik off his game. Bidwell and Allen just incapable of playing the ball forwards. Doyle looks dodgy. Wilson is Wilson. No one gambling. Two men in the box and ones Jamie midget Allen.

Ref was shit but that’s nothing to do with the result but he shouldn’t be allowed to ref at this level again. Totally out of his depth.

2 points dropped against a really poor Cardiff team at home but at least a clean sheet and not on the end of a 0-1 defeat. Clutching a bit but a win against Bristol and it’s not a bad week.

I guess that's symptomatic of Robins lack of use of subs.

Waghorn since signing him has been an absolutely catastrophic signing not looking for a scapegoat either just stating a fact... a massive missed chance tonight

Could easily have brought Waghorn and Tavares on there and gone 2 up. Weak by Robins tonight, points dropped.

He did go 2 up top. Just unfortunately one of those 2 was Waghorn.

A points a point. As things stand I’d take another 10 results like that one. We’re most likely 10 points from safety.

The Waghorn sub played into what Cardiff wanted, all was in front of them and waghorn did nothing to change that. I would of gone Tavares and got them turned. But MR makes these decisions and sometimes its not your day.

We are solid enough just didn't t create enough to win it, but if you cant win dont lose. Which is something we seem to be getting better at. Panzo, Doyle, Rose, Sheaf and Hamer played well enough. Kane done his job when he come on and had a good 20 mins.

Clean sheet we go again.

Another season where with just some vague money to spend we could be right in play off contention.

Frustrating game, we desperately need investment. The ref was shite and atmosphere wasn’t great.

That is true. It could all change in January if we get taken over. But what a couple of recent results have shown is we’re capable of grinding draws out. Hopefully regardless of what may or may not happen in January that will be enough to secure championship status next season.

Investment might not alter the Ref situation (unless we bung him) atmosphere better than recent years but not as good as recent matches.

Spending £15k a week on a 31 year old should never happen. Think of what we could have done with the money? INVESTING in a couple of decent youngsters with potential for on-profit and a younger target man was the obvious thing to do.

Swansea - 'Bad day at the office'
Sheffield United - 'Bad day at the office'
Cardiff - 'Bad day at the office'

They were awful and to not beat them is shocking. We need to get the wasters off the wage bill ASAP and bring in some new players.

Just a thought, is MR now bringing on players like Kane (who he booted out) and giving them game time to show they are fit and ready to go to try and sell them in January, or has he just realized that if you never play them they will never be match fit?

Dabo wasn’t great at all and looked well off the pace - Kane did well when he came on.

Rumour he was out of the starting line up and took an ankle knock yok was struggling second half

Robins needs to find his next way of working out how to play without Ohare

I really think Taveres should have come on tonight instead of Waghorn. Since he has been here what has he done (or did MR think we would get a penalty eventually and better him than Vic?
As for Taveres, he may or may not make the cut, but unless you give him a go how do you know.
I thought tonight was the ideal time to bring him on.
Nothing was working against their 10 defensive players, so maybe try some pace to get behind them and cross to Vic to get a proper chance and score.
With Cardiff happy for a point it was the right time to try him and see if he really offers something different.
If it never worked fine, neither did Waghorn but he will be gone at the end of the season, Taveres could still be here so let's see what he offers to the team.
