This 4-2-2-2 with no actual strikers (while losing 1-0 no less) will surely go down as Mowbray’s Matteo moment as somebody above aluded to.

Amen. Thinks he’s Pep.

Downing as a false 9 with nobody up top. Classic Tony.

Of course he is. On the right. God, Mowbray does my fecking head in.

Rest easy lads, goal machine Gally is on.

By odd goal here and there you mean one goal! Agreed though, he’s absolutely trash and if he gets a new contract it’ll sum up our ambitions for next season, that’s for sure.

Funnily he was one of them pre match posting some ‘3 finals, we’ll give it our all rollocks’ like a few of the others. Our lads have always been a tad spineless when it comes down to it.

All this sh*t chatted by manager and players during the build up to this game and they come out of the traps like this. Embarrassing.

If you’re fit enough for the bench, you’re fit enough to start, surely. Another Mowbray clanger.

I’ll put any wager, with anyone, that Palace won’t be in for Sam Gallagher. We’ll struggle to get him off the books given his decent wage here. Who would want him too?

???. Palace interested in Gally. You post some guff but that takes the biscuit pal.

Well I didn’t see that coming, particularly at half time. Brilliant result but makes the Wigan and Barnsley results even more frustrating. Mowbray pulls off another win just as the virtual pressure begins to crank up a notch.

He’s got it in his locker though, that’s why I think it’s largely an attitude thing with him. Bristol City away for example he was the best player on the pitch. Frustrating.

What a strike Arma, son!!

Holding his hammy apparently. That kid is always injured.

It’s happening!

Nothing for Tony Untouchable to worry about.

In the last 4 games we’ve conceded 9 and scored 2. If you’re not concerned then you’re lying. Wouldn’t mind betting that will be 10+ come full time too.

I wouldn’t bet that. Mowbray will give him a new deal, I’m sure of it. A non scoring striker who he can shoe horn in at RW. Mowbray’s wet dream.

Beat me to it. Somehow all 3 would have contrived to f*ck it up. To be fair, they probably would have been stood 20 yards away.

And there it is. 1-0 Cardiff. Great stuff yet again, lads.

He really needs to work on his end product if he wants to ever play in the PL. It’s terrible.

I’d wager decent money that neither will ever score goals consistently in the second tier, regardless of the manager. I’d be doubtful about League One to be honest. Neither has any strikers instinct whatsoever.

Mowbray loves the RW rotation of Samuel and Gallagher. One comes in, does sh*te, back out they go next match for the other. Rinse and repeat.

Reckon that’s bang on. Walton, Tosin, Johnson, Samuel and Graham shouldn’t be starting - there really is little point. I’d give Downing the benefit of the doubt as I’d give him another year.
