It started it's serious life with a convincing 4-0 win over Scunthorpe and it has been a relatively good home since. I wonder what game could be the best seen so far in the stadium's short hisory!
There's been a few tbf. Chopra v Swansea obviously. Leicester in PO semi but for me, the best so far is v Palace in CC Semi 2nd leg... CCS was rocking from KO to long after final whistle.
Yep, I'll go with Palace too, three little birds and all that. [video=youtube;jnOMgDwZXUw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnOMgDwZXUw[/video]
For pure nerve jangling tension and emotion, the Kermorgant game for me. When Marshy saved the last one from Waghorn (I think), the tension release was unbelievable.
Leicester PO semi for me, a fantastic night, and if i remember correctly the league game against them under the lights same season was also quite special.
Sheepy - that mention of Quinney got me thinking. Just looked back at the team that day - what a difference now. Cardiff 01 Marshall 02 McNaughton (Quinn 97 yellow card) 05 Hudson yellow card 03 Kennedy 07 Whittingham (McCormack 91) 10 McPhail yellow card 11 Burke (Etuhu 60) 16 Ledley 23 Blake 08 Chopra 09 Bothroyd Seems like another world at the club now with only quality like Marsh, Huds, Whitts and the Nugg still around. The "front end" of the team has been completely rebuilt.
And where is Betty now? Can't get a place in a struggling Championship side. How the mighty have fallen. Of those that have left Chops is the one that might be an addition to the current squad. MM wouldn't have him because of his attitude and rightly so. He would benefit from the current team around him though.
Recalled back or sent back? Hey, 'ang on a minute - I wonder if Malky and 'arry have been talking............
Cardiff beat a good Doncaster side 4-0 on Craig Bellamy' first debut. I say a good Doncaster side, how on earth they didn't score a couple that day beats me. Bellamy scored a beaut, Bothroyd a brace, but best of all was one by Burke, pitching up a long ball from Bellamy in the full back position, latching on and firing past the hapless (football parlance) keeper from 100 yards or so. Cracking it was too!
Loved Bothroyd then, gone off now, can't imagine he will do anything to save QPR from the inevitable!
