[O.T.B.C 1]

Cardiff City crashed to a woeful defeat at the hands on Norwich City - the Canaries out-performing the Bluebirds almost from start to finish. The home side looked the more confident, belying their lowly position with a fast tempo and series of clever touches and flicks. By contrast, Cardiff City were sluggish, under-pressure and tried to rely on pumping high balls to Eddie Johnson. Gow in particular was on form for Norwich and went close with two drives.

Cardiff City`s play was disrupted by an injury to Darcy Blake, meaning a left footed winger (Paul Parry) was deployed as an emergency right-back - let`s hope that is not needed again. The period leading up to half-time saw the Bluebirds improve and show their quality - you wondered if Norwich had blown their chance as we grew in confidence and forced Norwich into their own box for almost 5 minutes.

However, any hopes of a turn-around were dashed just moments into the second half when Hoolaham nissed a golden headed opportunity when un-marked. City Just a few minutes later, it was 1-0 to Norwich after a terrbible goal arising from a hopeful punt forward. Capaldi missed it and Dimi dallied allowing Mooney to steal in and score. Dimi stayed down to minutes afterwards, but the only injury was to his pride after another horrendous mistake.

Eddie Johnson was denied a headed goal by a good save jut a few moments later but Cardiff never really threatened the Norwich goal and conceded a late second as Cody McDonald beat the offside trap to slot home in injury time. We then had our best chance deep in injury time but Roger Johnson was denied by an excellent save.

Make no mistake, this was a poor showing. We were simply outclassed and had no ideas. That`s two defeats to lowly teams in two weeks, we had no answer to their determination, grit and desire. Thoroughly disappointing evening for Bluebirds, and the supporters.

I for one don''t and won''t get carried away as we know what the season has been like, but why the hell can we do it against Ipswich, Wolves, Shef U, Cardif etc and then shitee against the rest. I will be very annoyed if we get nothing but win on Saturday, especially against our releagtion rivals.

Your right there cnariesinbed, if we dont win on Saturday it was for nothing!! Just like when we won midweek and then lost to Blackpool!! Im was excited by the prospect of mooney and hoolahan playing together, but it sounds like Gow had quite a good game? was this the case by any who witnessed it?

[O.T.B.C 1]

Didn''t see the determination, grit and desire bit.

Yes mate, Gow was awesome last night.

The guy has real confidence on the ball and great close control for such a lanky individual. It gave us a completely different dimension up front.

If he plays like that again on Saturday we can be fairly confidant of picking up the points

Now you know thats not true. If only eh? Again and again on here you read ''result is everything''..... ''its points that matter''

I truly despair at the where football is headed, its all about bragging rights to 90% of posters on here. What happened to football, loyalty, reality....?
