No complaints, beaten by a team who were much better on the day all over the pitch. Gutted we didn't turn up though

What the ****s happened?! I've just got in from a friends birthday party, found a stream only to see cardiff score a penalty to make it four ****ing one. Have we had men sent off or something? How are we being so comprehensively dicked by a bunch of also rans?

Well, we started the game well, maintaining most of the possession and attacking for the first 10 mins or so, but couldn't convert that into a decent chance on goal. When Cardiff attacked, our defence backed off and backed off, sidwell lost his man, and Cardiff toe poked the ball in from 12 yards, looked close to Stockdale, not sure. A few minutes later Stockdale tried to play the ball out through stephens who couldn't get out of the way, Cardiff got the loose ball and shot straight through Stockdale. We then went to pieces for a while, then just as we were starting to settle down again, a cardiff player went to get past Goldson, seeing this, Dunk made a covering run behind Goldson, however the ball deflected off Goldson into the space dunk would have covered, and Cardiff put the ball in the goal. out of Stockdale's reach.

We started the second half the same way we started the first, only this time we managed to get a shot and a goal, a Skalak cross headed in on the nearside by Stephens. We continued to press, somne untidy attacking produced several good opportunities, but we couldn't do anything with them, then with their first proper attack of the second half, Pilkington bought a penalty to make it 4-1.

Poor from manager and the players today difficult to pick out any positives. Need a serous reaction at Bristol

We are very good at passing the ball around the back. Can we have the 3 points for that please?

If we drew today's and Tuesdays games it we'd have 2 points, lose today and win Tuesday we'll have 3 points.

If we lose on Tuesday, we'll have 0 points.

If we'd drawn today, and win on Tuesday, we'd have four points.

If we'd won today, and we win on Tuesday, we'd have 6 points.
