Cardiff (A) Sponsored by Morrison's transfer fee

[Sutekh]

Really is utter crap. Lots of lovely possession but fail totally to do anything meaningful with it - as usual.

Team utterly uninspiring and looks demoralised from the off.

So, just when will NA going to get the Spanish archer?

[Martin41]

I can hear her clearing her throat.....

[harry]

So if Ferdinand still isn't fit next week it'll be Hector and Cooper leading the defence

I don't recall Cooper doing too much wrong this season. If one of those isn't fit give Rob Dickie a run out. He looks a bit like Pearce from a distance Then you see he can run (with some pace) and kick a ball (with some accuracy).

Adkins out.

Pearce having the worst game of his career is hardly adkins' fault. We'd had far more of the action, absolutely dominated midfield.

All over now though.

+1 because other than tonight the defence has been superb this season

[KC Royal]

Pearce - worst game of his Reading career?
He's been poor but he hasn't been that bad! Thought he was solid other than the 2 goals.

[RoyallyFcuked]

Cardiff are no better than we are. We actually look better on the ball than they do, we just dont know what to do with it. Clueless in the final third and no creativity. Oh, and shit defending and stupid mistakes. Same old story.

[PistolPete]

Get Obita back to Left back, Get a new centre half, get a proper ball winner in midfield who will sit in front of the useless back 4 and we'll have half a chance...

Good job he got the red card so he can't do any more damage tonight

Someone please post the Donny step-over

How many chances have Cardiff created?
Note - i'm hardly saying he's played well.

[RoyalBlue]

We are just really poor - this is worse than Bodgers, Burns or Bullivant - we have an underperforming team, an inept manager and no passion or desire to cheer the fans.

How the hell did we get so bad so quickly?

Might as well go for it as we are naming and shaming everyone:

And a Chairman who initiated the financial mess we are now in and, whilst 'in charge of the day to day running of the club' took us to the brink of administration and then close to falling foul of FFP!

[kwik-silva]

Nail on the head there really, isn't it? This is happening week in, week out and it's getting tiring.

[P!ssed Off]

The lads are out for the 2nd half.
URRZZZZZ!

Seriously? May be worse than or on a par with Rodgers but it would have to drop off a cliff to get even close to the depths of Bullivant and Burns.

Hopefully mr 'under no illusions' will fook off.

[BonBoh]

LOL at OS headline: "We are aware of their threats"...
and the article goes on to say ""We’ve been on the training ground and worked hard defensively, individually and collectively [...]"

Could this be interpreted as:

1. They don't pose a threat so we must pose it ourselves.
2. We are not aware of the threat we pose to ourselves.
3. We've been working on a variety of ways to self-destruct.

[6ft Kerplunk]

Seem to remember a Saints fan saying that under Adkins we'd score lots of goals and concede lots of goals. So best part of two years in and he's halfway there.

[Sutekh]

Mr Dellor saying he's spoken to players and ex player close to the club this week and it seems the players have no confidence in the manager

If that is true he has to go, surely, as it's just not going to get better.

[Y21]

Adkins out because there is no plan b when we go behind. There is little evidence of a cohesive plan going forwards. The same shit players get match time when they are palpably short of confidence.

And he really oxf*rd annoys me whenever he opens his perma tanned gob.

[harry]

Have Tim Dellor & Mick Gooding been slipped something in their tea at half time?
Dreaming of a come back to win 3-2.
