Team for this afternoon - Halford starts - quick Sheepy, out me down for a hat trick from him........... Etheridge, Peltier, Bamba, Manga, Bennett, Halford, Damour, Ralls, Mendez-Laing, Hoilett, Bogle.
Cheers Bluey - what's the bet Tomlin will come off the bench and score?..............I may well have a punt on that when/if he comes on.
Tomlin, Patterson and Zahore off the bench is a nice thought. Would like to see how tomlin goes when we get Healey and Kadeem back. Those two running in behind with Tomlin sliding the passes would be interesting. Bodes well.
Hmmm.....City only even money to win this one so I'm going for a half time/full time Cardiff/Cardiff punt @ 11/5 - 20 quid on the nose. Scorers could be interesting - Halford's on @ 13/2......... I've predicted a 4-0 win so I'll pick 4 different scorers. I'm not going for the favourites as the return is too small, so 10 quid each on........... Ralls @ 3/1 Damour @ 7/1 Bamba @ 8/1 Manga @ 14/1 Let's see how that lot goes.
Drat it!!! That disallowed Hoilett goal has knackered my City HT/FT punt.............so what price now we'll win it the second half? Ah well, there's still the scorers to go.
OK guys, they say never chase a loss but I'll have to have a go on City to win the second half. They're @ 7/5 so here goes another 20 quid. Also note that County are also drawing at half time. Bugger it - another 10 quid on a City/County double to return £68.
Bloody buggery bollocks. Looked like a scrappy games with lots of fouls but how in the hell did we cock that up?
That was a bummer. Seemed we didn't really turn up for the game - certainly not to win it from the team selection. Reminded me of the Preston game up there. From all accounts a very poor showing all round. Good to see Big Ken back on the pitch though.
Not sure How Hoilett was offside when a defender was on the line? Penalty very harsh. Ball to hand. One of those games when nothing went our way. Against Hull we had a break for our goal but it evened itself out today. Derby on a hot run. Bristol sneaked a point. Wolves another 1-0. Leeds also. Villa may get a win. Bad day all round
Aye, especially for me with the bookies. 4-0 to City I said - where did I get that from? At least I thought we could win it - WTF do I know!!
Looks like from what I've read since we were bullied off the middle of the park by Pratley and Henry. That's not the way it should be. Warnock said he took Tomlin off because he was being "wound up" and in risk of being sent off. Is that good enough for an experienced player?
