The smart people on here wii say a boring 1-1 draw, but I notice quite a few predictors on here are now following Masky. Masky is wise and extremely clever and is predicting a 5-4 win with NG getting a brace or two (see what he did there)? Neil Harris has been on the Masky phone asking about the fruit market....is it open, that sort of thing? Asked what is the best time to pick up avicado’s on the cheap, I said 4pm on a Saturday....and he is now going to miss the game...not the smartest sandwich in the box eh? 2-0 city....Ivanhoe......! Minxy is now just a distant memory Clingon....fill your boots pal!
Never know what to expect from Millwall. They haven't won in the league this season and threw away leads in both of the games they drew. They did however score late against Fulham but were already 2 down. My fear is that whilst we may not know what to expect from them, they will certainly know what's coming from us. So, we need to be good at it. I guess that all our goals coming from headers this season shows that we are at least playing to our strengths. Many pretty teams not managing 5 goals at all! Anyway, don't forget your NASA ball tracking devices if you're going to the game.
Ref tomorrow is James Linnington. His last 5 games refereeing City have been 5 wins. Make of that what you will
Thanks Nin I have no negative recollections of him which must be a good thing ........ but there is always the exception to disprove the rule. On the downside, each week we approach having one of the "select" band of refs who always seem to have it in for us. We know who they are......
https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport...kCopy&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sharebar Vassell moving closer to contention but Tomlin apparently unwell this week. Looks to me like: 1. He's going through the list of excuses. 2. He's avoiding MM. Probably a good idea if 1. is correct.
Had to go back a bit but found a couple of games with Mr Linnington in charge where we lost. A1.0 home defeat to Preston over a Christmas period. If my memory is correct, we weren't happy bunnies that day and there was a 0.2 loss to QPR on a season opener. I can't recall that one. Apart from a 0.0 home draw with Direby we've won every other game he's reffed for us. About a dozen plus a couple of cup games. Taken all into account we should like Mr Linnington. I hope that state of mind remains about 4.50pm tomorrow.
Yes, I'm not doing much today. More stats between us and the Wall going back to 2010. 14 games Us 3 wins Them 1 win 10, yes 10 draws, including the last 7 meetings. I think we need Mr Linnington to swing this for us. Just one more statement, lampost Matt Smith plays centre forward for them. Doesn't he usually score against us?
You need to find out if Mr Linnington is a swinger. Also, why do Millwall have a time lord? Don't worry BfB, Ivanhoe will win the battle of the big boys.
Unfortunately Transfermarket doesn't give information on Mr Linnington's extra curricular activities. Masky might know? You could be right about Matt Smith. He appeared out of nowhere in the second half and nearly got them a draw v QPR. Could form a deadly striking duo with Benedict Cucumberpatch.
The former was a shocker. It was in our run of 4 losses on the spin. Ethridge spilled a ball in the 90th minute. The QPR game was a depressing display under Trollop. Ex bluebird Caulker scored one of the goals.
That Preston loss at home took place in a torrential downpour practically all game. Everyone watched the ball onto that blokes head as he bundled it over the line. I was there and I don't think Etherdige got a touch. I thought Warnock was bang out of order for publicly blaming Etheridge in the media. He always had to blame somebody when we lost, If it wasn't the officials it somebody else as long as it wasn't himself.
Dave Jones slating Adam Matthews was the worst I can remember. Cant remember Warnock and Etheridge. I remember Etheridge having a few below average games and Murphy getting a few games and doing well. Etheridge came back though and back to his best. Good management I thought. No idea if this included the Preston game but Warnocks man management was superb in our promotion season.
Cardiff City XI: Phillips; Morrison, Flint, Nelson; Sang, Pack, Ralls, Bagan; Colwill, Moore, Harris. Subs: Smithies, Ng, Vaulks, Bacuna, Giles, Collins, Murphy.
