Well done everyone tonight. You all showed that we might have been relegated but all of you gave everything for the cause tonight and denied Hull an easy win that they might have thought they would have. And with a bit more confidence at their end of the pitch, we could easily have stolen all three points. Forever proud to be a City fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We at Cardiff have had some battles with you over the seasons and I was really hoping you would miss the drop. Lets hope you can win promotion again as you are definitely a good championship side. We lost home and away to Posh so we know better than anyone theres little difference between all the sides, a bit more luck and you are at the top. jck
Thanks for the praise,hope you do well in the prem,you have been knocking at the door for a long time.Us it could go two ways SoD will bring us straight back up,of we could be left in the wilderness for a few seasons.
Just one more comment on last night's match. What a good performance by referee Michael Oliver who was very fair, allowed physical challenges and wasn't conned by some whining by one or two players. Can we have him every week please?
Got to be honest, when that ginger player went down under the challenge by Cunningham in the box my immediate thought was penalty. Then seeing in on replay you could see it was definetly not shows how quick they have to make a decision. That decision was correct, but it could of easily been wrong and decided the promotions. I think in Tennis and Rugby these TV replays could be a massive benefit during a game even if they went Tennis route and only had 3 or even 1 per half calls to make during the game. Teams would only use them if completely neccessary rather than lose them. Or even if the ref was unsure like Rugby go to th replay where the forth official is watching rather than paying him just to hold up a extra time minutes board.
TV reviews have been hugely successful in cricket (and the ICC need to have some balls and TELL India they MUST use it). However, football is a more fluid game - personally I'm happy with goal-line technology, but that's it for during a game. I would like to see technology used by the authorities - a panel could sit each week to rule on players that have dived - if someone has they should get a ban
I agree with the after panel, you will find managers won't put up with diving if it results in them loosing players for say 3 games. Plus if this happens put something in their contracts to say if your found guilty of diving you don't get paid whilst banned.
They would just bottle it when a big clubs player was involved like that stamp by the Man City players last week
