    Problem is Thai the negative is far outweighing the positive for you at the moment. Surprised to see in the bottom 3 but i cant see you going down, still think you will finish about 10th this season.

    Had you watched our last 5 games, including today, then that is a bit of an understatement fella. okay we had Arsenal and Chelsea included in that run so it was always going to be tough, next up Man City away - eek!

    That 'negative' is what will swing it either way, if we can find some goals, we will be fine and perhaps close to mid-table, but if we don't then 0-0 draws or 0-1 defeats are not going to serve us very well.

    The goals will come, Seems Hooper and Van wolfswinkle just need a little more time to settle and gel with the team. After Man city you have west ham (winnable) Newcastle (draw) and Palace (win win win). Reckon you could get 7 out of the next 9 <ok>

    A very good point away in the end, It might feel like 2 points dropped by norwich but it was they who never made their dominance pay at home so a well deserved point for cardiff who Malky will be the happiest out of the two managers.

    Norwich were rubbish.

    Hardly created a clear cut chance despite us just kicking it back to them at every opportunity.

    Then they have 1 player trying to cheat.

    Hope they go down.

    We were tactically a shambles. Luckily Norwich are rubbish.

    From what ive seen 30 points may be enough.

    Did you see the game?



    10th????????????

    Any Norwich fan would take 17th right now.

    As a Cardiff fan so would I.

    2 very poor teams today.

    I think we have the better players. They are better organised.

    We were only poor in the final third, everywhere else, we bossed for the majority. Not sure you have better players either, maybe one or two individuals, but not overall.

    Glad you feel this way.

    Even though im not convinced we will stay up I know we can play much better than today.

    However if you really think you played well up until the final 3rd then you've had it.

    We more or less let you play up until that point and your players just couldn't create chances. Snodgrass is so one footed its an embarrassment. Our defence dealt with him with a cigar in one hand.

    Both sides were poor.

    Easy point for us that was our aim. You were clueless trying to break us down and your player embarrassed himself at the end.

    I am not so sure about this. I have heard one interview where he claims the ref said AND waved to play on! No doubt with all the TV cameras around, and the in-depth scrutiny that goes on, and taking the fact the ref legged it away from the ground as quickly as possible to avoid any questions, the truth may come out.

    Thai, If you would have been happy to take that "goal" then your not the man I thought you were.

    I don't think there was any option but to take it.I was behind the goal and it looked like a cock-up to me.i think our player tried to play it back to Marshall and between them they cocked up and it ended up in the net.In my mind the ref should have given it then we should have allowed Cardiff to equalise.
    Overall well done to Cardiff.You rode your luck at times but probably deserved the point.

    No Fer is a cheating **** that tried to steal a win his team couldn't get the honest way.

    He is an absolute prick that makes Ashley Young look like a contender for the FIFA fair play award.

    Before anyone tries to stand up for him he has openly admitted trying to steal the win by being a cheating ****, he is scum and a player the PL doesn't need. Throughout all the diving and shaming no one else has sunk as low as Fer today. Big thumbs up for the ref for stopping him succeeding.

    well said hilts, as always bang on the money............<ok>

    we can play much better, we'll get 45+ points like i predicted at the start of the season.......<ok>

    you could say similar quality players on either team but our manager is far better and because of that we'll stay up with ease...........<ok>

    Dai, at no point did I say we should have won because of that goal. What I am saying is the referee did not play to the rules, and the goal should have stood. However, with the sportsmanship in the game, I have little doubt that once the game re-started, Cardiff would have walked the ball in to the Norwich net to make it 1-1.

    To my mind, although a 1-1 draw under the circumstances would have been farcical, the goal to be disallowed because someone made a mistake, is more farcical <ok>

    On the basis that we never looked like beating Marshall, a draw was the right result on the day, regardless of the domination (although, today it hurts to say that)

    Mmmm. I think we'll be okay, but it appears to be a fact that Marshall kept us in it. Whilst Much should have put a chance away in the first half, there was (from what I could se on MOTD) more that one opportunity for Norwich (and not just from distance) to finish us off. It's a good point away, sure, but we need I'm afraid that we're going to lose next week. And the week after. Adn the week after that. Sorry.

    I'm sure Fer will receive a very warm welcome at CCS later in the season. Scaldingly warm on a Tate scale.
