Mick McCarthy another manager dinosaur like Neil Warnock. Has to be one of the most boring bosses in football, but his teams are hard to beat need an early goal.

Looking forward to this one. Genuinely can't remember the last time I came up for a mid-week game at the arena.

Last week night I did was Rotherham at St Andrews.

Warnock got the best out of Taarabt tbf, not sure you can do that if you’re employing dinosaur tactics

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Nice to see Robins and Derek brown at the city ground watching Cardiff

 

[WestEndAgro]

Looks shit behind the goal

Loads of people had flags done during the lock down, add the ones which people already have and we have hundreds, why not display at the Telegraph end, no real point having them if you aren't showing them
Most grounds did it when fan's couldn't attend and it looked good.
Fortunately we still have enough room to still do it

Weren’t that about a decade ago?!

Whos Derek Brown?

Why? Didn’t Forest get a first half goal? Didn’t do them any good. I will settle for a 97th minute winner.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Whos Derek Brown?

Lol Dennis Lawrence no idea where I got the other name from

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Think we will play them off the park Wednesday but I’ll be shitting myself every set piece/ long throw. Fadz can’t mark Morrison, flint, Moore and Collins

Get him on flint, get Hyam on Collins, JCS on Morrison, but most importantly Moore on Moore

You sound like my dad getting names muddled up lol

 

[Irish Sky Blue]

Surely Swansea?

Agree, they were almost as bad.

You’d have him here then given the chance ?

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Considering Cardiff have 3 players over 6'3", i'm not sure if we should at start Allen over Sheaf. Maybe he could be an impact sub when their players tire.

Mick 'Bastard' McCarthy.

He's a bastard, and all of his players are bastards!

Reckon Roy Keane would agree with you, not sure about the players bit though.

Have you got a league table?

 

[steve101]

Playing Allen or Sheaf is an interesting one. Do you play Sheaf to help counter their aerial presence or do you play Allen to keep the ball low and move them around more? I think Allen would be hard done by if dropped albeit for tactical reasons. Robins might even go one up top and play both Sheaf and Allen.

We’re at home and playing well, two up and let them worry about us. I like Sheaf but you can’t drop Allen after his display yesterday. Can always bring Sheaf on if he’s struggling or we need aerial support.

Very poor

[Tommo1993]

I’d be quite disappointed if a winning team was changed. Stick.

I would bring in some physicality for Allen maybe Sheaf as Cardiff will be a tough nut

 

[shmmeee]

Toughest home game by some distance

Toughest home game by some distance

It is looking like losing to Barnsley was the exception to the rule. They have had tough opponents for the last 6 matches around Coventry's assumed ability and the results for them have been less than encouraging than when they were playing us. Expect them to rise up the league from their current position when they average out who they play in the league.

If you figure this into the trend that Coventry was just plain unlucky not to get something from that game, which everything is pointing to, then the game could be on for promotion.

Still waiting for more games to be completed though.

Things are starting to look encouraging.

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

Would Take a point ,but would love 3. Gonna go 1-1. Vik to score for us. Going to be a tight game. Can’t make it so the lads who do make some noise and get behind the team!

 

[SleepyGinger]

Getting carried away but I fancy us to win again. 2-1 win.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

We’ll definitely score in Robins time

Think Sheaf will come back in for Allen but Allen and Godden will get more time off the bench.
Cardiff are a big strong team who play little football and lump the ball up to their lumps and make the best of corners Free kicks and long throws.
We will cause them massive issues playing how we did going forward
Need a strong ref to protect our players and there is no reason why we shouldn’t win

One for he main threats for Cardiff is Giles !

Has 4 assist this season. Basically you cant afford to let him cross.

He wasn’t in their squad yesterday

 

[jordan210]

Hopefully he is injured then.

Also have to try and mark Flint out the game

 

[SleepyGinger]

He was ill, I think he’ll be back for Wednesday which doesn’t concern me we know what he’s about.
