    Betty, love him, loath him, shout for him, wanna shake him. Could have been sent off himself, lazes around as though he should have a glass of wine in his hand, looks interested when we get angry with him. . . Then, falls to the floor, pretends like an eight year old 'I've broken my leg' (you know what I mean), gets up, scores a goal, runs about, remembers that he's hurt, slows down, remembers to limp. He's a hero, a fool, but . . . . he's city somehow.
    Come on lads, just win all your bloody games - we know you can, you know you can.

    Bothroyd seems awesome from the first whistle to the last . I suspect he wouldn't be half the player if he didn't live on the edge of the ref's whistle , much like Bellamy . I figure the Norwich game mid week will have a huge say towards Cardiff's push for auto pro . My money's on Bothroyd & Bellamy to carry Cardiff to that auto spot if Norwich stumble the slightest .... GRR !!

    He should spend more time in the pen area. How many times was he just drifting around out wide? Too many crosses by wingers come in expecting their centre forward there but he's strolling around by the touch line.

    Also he is an old woman half the time lying about on the floor.

    there are times when I just want Mr T to turn up in a ruddy great big tank and throw snickers bars at him. If he spent as much time trying to score goals as he does rolling around on his arse and complaining he could have banged in 30 goals by now.

    I'll be honest, whether we go up or not we'll be well rid of him. Granted he can score goals but i'm sure we can find another goal scorer with a better work and playing ethic that does not wind us up so much.

    I'm sorry concernedincardiff but I can't agree with that! I know Jay's work ethic is a little poor and I know it's frustrating when he goes to ground so often but he is a great player and I'd rather have him in the squad than not! Here's hoping to automatic promotion and Jay signing a new contract with us!

    I think we'd all agree that at the start of the season he was pretty unplayable. He seems now, towards the end, to be finding some form again. I just wish he'd man up and stop playing the wounded soldier. It's annoying.

    It's really annoying and at times quite embarrassing! I always think that he must surely feel a little bit stupid the way he acts at times? Must say though, he is my favourite player of the last few years and he really is class
