Matchday Thread Cardiff City v PNE - 11/12/24 - KO:7:45PM

[JK]

​

 

[No Danger]

Hopefully turn a corner tonight with an overdue away win. 3 points could even take us to 14th if Coventry lost.
Any outcome is possible of course and at 10pm we could be anywhere between 14th and 21st.
COYW.

 

[OB1]

We’re the North End, the mighty North End, we never win awaaayyy

 

[Thracia]

After a bunch of must-wins that we didn't win, another must-win.

 

[Earlofcurl]

I working near Brum so if I get an early finish I’ll make my first visit to Cardiff. Still says 2hrs 42 mins on Gmaps!
They better put a shift in.

 

[Yoowell]

The big question tonight is whether Brady is fit enough to balance the team at last.
Would be nice to finally win and do it in a foreign country.

 

[Yoowell]

Does anyone know if the twitter account has leaked the team yet?

 

[LostinSpace]

We will win tonight and I think comfortably, 3-1 would do nicely.

We're due a win and have been playing well enough to deserve one.

There's no such thing at this stage of the season.

Isn’t there a cut off time for ticket sales?

 

[jgriff2296]

Safe journey to all who are traveling tonight. You have my respect, let's hope the team don't let you down

 

[Thracia]

There's no such thing at this stage of the season.

There is, only most people don't realise they were must-wins until later in the season.

 

[Oh HughieHughie]

Was planning my first trip to Cardiff City stadium combined with a round at Celtic Manor and a few beers round Cardiff...unfortunately going to have wait till next season as I have a funeral to attend 😥😥

 

[Sid Snot]

Bore da, mes amis. Three points tonight will be most gratefully accepted.

That's a shame mate. However I would imagine CM courses will be playing extremely long at this time of year!

 

[Wisemen say]

There is, only most people don't realise they were must-wins until later in the season.

When they comment if only we'd picked up three points at, or not chucked away a three goal lead at or not conceded a soft equaliser against......all when it's too late ..🤔.....

We’re the North End, the mighty North End, we never win awaaayyy

I first heard that when we won 4-0 at Oldham in the season we went up via the playoffs, except it was we always win awaaayyy!

It is vital we come away with something tonight - if we play as we did in the last match and show a bit more clinicality in front of goal then we have a chance of doing so. The return of Brady gives us the option to switch Kesler-Hayden to the right which is where we all agree he should be. Riis has finally got back amongst the goals - as I always knew he would - and that is a massive plus for us. We must also continue with the central midfield partnership of McCann and Thordarson which can only get better and with Frokjaer and Greenwood roaming further ahead actually gives us a pretty good midfield - getting all four of those players on the field at the same time as much as we can is crucial.

 

[Grand Tour]

We really DO need the win tonight, as Cardiff have a game in hand over us. COYW.

We do also need to accept that sometimes all these players won't start, as will need to rotate to ensure players don't burn out.

No midweek game next week, but after that it's the busy Christmas period.

But this is our best combination of players for said positions.
