I think your being a bit harsh on your team Taff, Cardiff don't look a million miles away from being decent at this level , the swans really struggle against teams that press well and while you maybe pressing the ball a lot more than you would like it does put the other team out of their rythem . Cardiff also had chances to score and while its at 0=0 you always have a chance. Didn't think that much of Medal though, for £10m quid he didn't seem to stand out in his midfield role, gunnerson and the Korean lad looked better . That was the first game I watched him closely though and of course its early days
It a honeymoon period for cardiff just like nearly all promoted sides get. the ref will look after promoted sides in the early stages but it always comes to an end and the reality of the premiership kicks in...
Medel has impressed me as he has been very low profile and got on with his job, I think he also brings out the best in Gunnarson. I don't think we have seen the best of him as he's only been with the team since 2 days before the first game. Kim will run all day and hasn't had a run of games with the team until this season. He is quality and will improve, I thought he held onto the ball a little too long at times and I thought he picked the wrong pass at time. Overall today was about sticking to the game plan and avoid defeat. I think this formation is all well and good which will keep us in the premier league but it will be a long hard season.
For £10m quid you expect a bit more though surely ? he was practically invisible apart from when he gave away penalties or free kicks .
"but it will be long hard season". Interesting that you make that kind of observation,Fish. I posted something similar on your Forum in the wake of your win against Man. City, and I was attacked from all quarters.
Libby I can see your on this thread come back to mine and lets discuss your attitude towards posters that do not agree with you my little chum,
Lib, I have never said anything different and most on the Cardiff board have a similar opinion, I would suggest your questions on your thread led to the responses you received. If I replace Cardiff with Swansea and posted it on your board what response would I get? I would hardly say 4 posters is an attack from all quarters although singulary the would make a quarter of the four posters who responded negatively. You also don't mention the gracious thanks you received from Stevo and myself. http://www.not606.com/showthread.php/226403-Historic-win
You are a waste of space pal . Don't try and patronize me or anyone else on this board again . Pathetic !
Responding to a Swans question, how about you read your board before commenting, oops sorry not allowed to tell you what to do.
Arse wipe I responded to your post about which highlighted your players deficiencies , post it on your board .Hows that for a welcome !
and I was having a conversation with Norway Jack (number 23) in response to his comments about Cardiff City on this thread so hardly on the wrong board. "Arse Wipe" is that the usual Swansea greeting?
Taff,re post 30,since I didn't return to that thread until now,I was unaware of any posts after my No. 5 offering,so good for you. The response of most others was on a par with what I have come to expect however.
Taff's post has been read,and answered,Ffs. However,no point in wasting my "superior literacy skills",(your words not mine,modesty forbids me to be so forward and presumptuous), on this post,better I reserve them for those who have the capacity to fully comprehend same. As the great England fast bowler Freddie Trueman was often heard to say,after having bowled a superlative ball to a lesser mortal than himself,the said lesser mortal having been beaten all ends up,"That were wasted on thee,lad". But,hey,thanks for encouraging me to use them,greatly appreciated. It's very opportune to read that you "believe" Taff "is due an answer",so I can expect you to provide the answer to yesterday's request on a different thread. Since I have not revisited said thread,there is a possibility that you have already provided the proof as requested,if so,good for you. You have,haven't you? There's an old saying,and it goes something like this," When you find you have dug yourself into a hole,the best thing to do is to stop digging". It would be an act of great kindness,if someone were to relieve you of your shovel.
Ffs,modesty forbids me,but I presume your post No.32 is aimed at me. I won't dignify it with any significant response,since no words of mine could ever begin to do it justice. It is so you, reeking of bitterness and self loathing.
