Pretty much in full control. Look even more out of ideas than usual.

Almost like we've got too much time on the ball, resulting in taking too long thinking about the next move

Then add in that headless chicken they've bought on, can't believe we're not being sharper.

Hoping we're saving energy for the 2nd half.

Nick · Feb 15, 2022

Poor half really. No urgency and didn't really test them.

Looks like both teams are happy for a draw.

Not an awful half - just meh.
Cardiff have offered even less than us.

I meant in terms of the entertainment. We are playing ok if unspectacular

which isn’t in any rule book and Mcsheffrey dived game after game and won penalties - if it was a dive it wiukd have been a yellow card against O Hare

Mcsheffrey scored 44 goals in 143 appearances. You can't compare the players remotely.

Need more pace. Maatsen in an attacking position can change this game.

Mr Panda · Feb 15, 2022

The ball over the top into the channel is on. Their CB partnership are slow as fuck

It is but need to mix it up a bit. Few times Sheaf has been begging for the ball and Fadz hasn't even looked up. The possession is very sterile. Only Sheaf in this team that is looking to play a quick clever progressive pass.

Fair. I actually think Shipley has been pretty good as well tbf.

Especially on a greasy pitch where any shot can zip in.

No - stony faced as teams walked off.

Jamesimus · Feb 15, 2022

Look tidy in possession, can see we are technically superior to this Cardiff team. That being said we have created next to nothing and Cardiff have looked pretty solid at the back.

Would rather we were more untidy in possession and tried to create some actual chances.

Missing Hamer?

Gint11 · Feb 15, 2022

Good, solid half. Really like our press and forcing them back. We’ve played nice football but too safe. Completely toothless up top.
Need to drop a few side passes and increase forward passes.
Same scenario, dominating but doing nothing in front of goal yet we could be 1-0 down on chances.

Liquid Gold · Feb 15, 2022

This is fucking shit

shmmeee · Feb 15, 2022

Thought we looked comfortable TBH after the first few minutes. They’re playing like an away team sitting deep and hoping to hit us on the break. Need a bit more dynamism on, I don’t think Shipley’s been that bad but I’d like to see any of Maatsen, Waghorn or Jones to try and break them down a bit.

SeaSeeEffCee · Feb 15, 2022

This feels like it’s heading for 0-0.

Our marking at set pieces is asking for trouble though. Bidwell on Flint and then Rose just letting Flint have a free header in the box as well.

Brighton Sky Blue · Feb 15, 2022

A penny for his thoughts

dadgad · Feb 15, 2022

Ref bottled the decision.
O’Hare unlucky.

no_loyalty · Feb 15, 2022

Boring first half hope it picks up second half and we create some clear cut chances, and finish them.

shmmeee · Feb 15, 2022

Three fucking stonewall penalties denied in five seconds though, got to be some kind of record.

Strange decision to take him off. He seemed to be their biggest threat.

Even then why with the first half around the corner, just wait

Their supporters don't seem too impressed either looking at the responses to their tweet.

Could be a chance for Tavares.

Gyokeres can occupy the defenders and then get Tavares in behind.

If Waghorn comes on it feels like it'll just be more of the same

no as he was a striker / left winger and penalty taker - how many times did you see him play and who of the two is the best player?

I mean they’re more VAR than stonewall

Shipley has played a couple of very good balls behind their defence that could have created something. Would like Allen, O'Hare whoever to try and run at them on the edge of the box. Shame Hugill has come on. Hope Ikpeazu stays on the bench.

Just sat where he was as everyone else came off. Don’t blame him

If you are trying to suggest for one moment that Callum O´Hare is currently better than Gary McSheffery in his prime then you need to get your nurse to up the dosage on whatever medication she usually gives you.

coop · Feb 15, 2022

Can see them scoring from a corner or free kick why didn't Allen shoot when the ball was slipped to him.

covcity4life · Feb 15, 2022

Playing okay but lacking ideas.

Shipley offering nothing and bidwell still off pace. Gyok looks tired.

coop · Feb 15, 2022

Definitely penalty by the keeper.

Nick · Feb 15, 2022

Maybe Watters was taken off for trying to claim that awful header as a goal?

Take that all day long. I think they will score from a long throw though

Deleted member 9744 · Feb 15, 2022

Just read through first half comments. Can't believe anyone could think that second challenge on O'Hare wasn't a penalty

That is the concern. Our bench doesn’t inspire much if it goes against us
