If Robins dares to use his "Some positives to take away" and "you know they're a tough team" bollocks....

We need to try a different formation. It looks like we have bought players who dont fit what Robins wants to play.

I'd honestly try a 433 of

Wilson
MVE Fadz Kitching Bidwell
Kelly
Eccles Ayari
Sakamoto Godden Wright

Disgrace really, when will Robins wake up and bin Palmer off.

Godden and Kelly thanks for the service but really you should be our past and not the present.

Huge mistake to not bring in a central midfielder.

Just get to 50 points really, I think we've got some decent players but missing a couple of key ingredients to the team. Stay up this season and try and and make a push next season or the one after.

Bias Cardiff commentators

Calling for a red card. Bollocks. Yes he was late but wasn’t dangerous

More than a bad day at the office, being beaten by an average Cardiff side, didn't expect anything tonight but this is absolutely terrible..Robins seriously needs to look at his "favourites" and make some decisions..we are rapidly going backwards.

Not just beat, we weren’t even competitive

I genuinely don't think there have been any other than a great finish by Godden.

10 minutes feels about right. If it was 50 wouldn't make any difference.

Thats a brilliant ball in by Sakamoto again. We should really be trying to utilise him.

Watching on iFollow. Credit to those who travelled.

Was hoping for a top 10 or top 12 finish to the season. Think we just need to avoid relegation.

Doesnt matter how much possession if you don’t create chances.

Wright was poor. Ayari showed why he wasn’t picked to start. We miss a midfielder able to hold the team together

That’s twice Wilson’s been in danger from late offside flags. If the forward’s going in like that wave the fuckin’ flag

Sakamoto maybe, but not as a wingback.

I also believe our problems are midfield. Two midfielders who don't want to show for the ball and don't want to take risks. Both like getting stuck in and tracking back, which is fine, but that's not a balanced midfield. On tonight's showing Kelly would stay in to do that job.

Playing Wright and Godden together is strange because neither of them particularly want to show for the ball either. They both like to run on to perfect passes through the lines - which we're not doing with our current midfield set up.

We can point the finger at Wright and Palmer all you like, but they are three absolutely dreadful goals to concede.

Terrible from Fadz for the that one.

This game doesn't worry me. I'm more worried if we don't see a reaction in our next match. To be this poor and not get a rocket up their arse would be alarming

Nice of the officials to give 10 minutes and help Cardiff get their goal difference up.

Right turning this off now, utter utter shite. How has this team had 20 million spent on it? Nothing in midfield at all, shocking up front and now defence falling apart too. Fuck this shit.

It was a snap finish through a bundle of players, anything could have happened I won't be adding it to the wank bank.

He’s got to abandon wing backs - they are creating nothing - exiling Bidwell was bizarre - we just have no shape

But people keep saying "oh we've only lost 2 in 25 or whatever the number is". problem is we don't have 2 of the key players who helped us in those games. We're screwed.
