Cardiff City v Leeds Utd Match Thread - Bamford Starts Up Front

[Kennyb41]

Gruev's had a tidy 90, the sheep have been made to look as bad as Birmingham.

I just love to hear Welsh people whinge. They are so good at it.

Except they don't whinge.

They whyng

Shack for Kamara and Gnonto for James.

The female co commentator on the Cardiff City stream has probably added some weight to the Joey Barton controversy.

[Orange Box]

2 mins for Gnonto to get in a fight with the referee

Another good look from Dan trying to fondle Anthony on the back post.

She doesn’t need to be a good commentator, to hear her talk she’s the best player in Britain.

[AcrossThePondAsh]

Damn auto-correct

[John in Louisiana]

Another clean sheet. Brilliant.

[JoeDenver]

Now let's go Sunderland!

Exactly! ESPN+ carrying that one next. Let’s go!

[The Subhuman]

Very good win. Last 3 - scored 10 conceded none

[Orange Box]

And yet another 3-0. Do we need a new scriptwriter?

Everything except for that one flubbed pass in the first half. Nearly cost us a goal. But otherwise very tidy. Particularly had some nice long balls to spring the attack.

That’s odd, haven’t noticed one of the usual suspect moaners on here today…

His strongest match to date. He and Kamara looked like they had been playing together for a while.

[Cjay]

Comfortable and much better against a low block than we have been at times.

Bamford stretching the play, Rutter then having space, very effective as a pair.

I thought Gruev was extremely tidy, some really nice passes and covering tackles.

Jamara was his usual effective unspectacular self.

Rodon was immense with Ampadu looking Comfortable bringing the ball out.

Gray and Firpo both very decent.

No real complaints.

Good job.
