Ref: Rebecca Welch
1st Ass: Robert Hyde
2nd Ass: Bhupinder Singh Gill
4th Ass: Alex Chilowicz

Not reffed us since 3-3 at Chesterfield in 2022/23.

[gazberg]

Regardless of how serious or not their injuries are i think we can count Dike and Bartley out of this.


What's that now then? 10 players out?

Ajayi and Diangana back in the UK by this game but will they be given this game off to re-adjust and, in the case of Ajayi, rest?

I'd expect them both to be on the bench at least. If Diangana doesn't start then that means he's barely played for Congo meaning he could also start. We could put Pieters out for this one. I don't think he's been that bad this season.

Didn't realise they were same time zone as us. Grady can definitely be invovled, he's been rested big time.

Grady starting in third play play off.  Can’t see him being involved Tuesday.

[baggiebof]

Can see some rotation for this one, especially with Southampton on the Friday night which will be a game where we will "suffer a lot" to use a Corberan quote.

Cardiff have a 6ft 6ins striker so expect Yokulsu to be part of the back 4 ahead of other options such as Pieters or tucking Furlong inside - this may afford him a little more rest ahead of Friday when hopefully Bartley or, more likely, Ajayi return.

I think we will see:

Palmer

Furlong
Yokuslu
Kipre
Townsend

Mowatt
Chalobah

Wallace
Swift
Johnstone

Thomas-Asante

I don’t see any sense in playing all 3 of our only fit CM’s and one out of position
People may not rate pieters but he is a CB and should play there before we rearrange the whole jigsaw .
We need some sensible rotation

Palmer
Furlong
Kipre
Pieters
Pipa

Johnstone
Chalobah
Mowatt
Fellows

That’ll give a bench of
Griffiths
Townsend
Yokuslu
Heard
Wallace
Marshall
Weimann
Diangana

The starting 11 should have enough,the subs bench is very strong at this level and some key players get a break before Southampton

Swift
BTA

[FallOutBoy]

I'm not saying we're probably going to win this one. I'm just saying I'm missing it to take the missus to Bill Bailey.

[The Tank]

Putting it like that, you make it sound like he is a quack 
Seriously though' I'm looking forward to his Perfect Pub Walks series.

[mulliganstired]

With all due respect to Cardiff, if Pieters isn't able to do a job in this game we may as well pay him off.

He's well rested at least

[beechyboy90]

My team would be:

                    Palmer
Furlong kipre Pieters Townsend
              Okay mowatt
       Fellows Swift Wallace
                      BTA

Go hard and fast try get some goals and then wrap up yokusulu and if kipre was struggling also as reported Furlong to cb and pipa at right back.

[Fritzl Palace]

Would agree that we need to be bringing Pieters in for this one, you could see the effect of Okay dropping back into defence on Saturday, we surrendered the midfield which we cannot afford to do.

Palmer

Furlong   Kipre   Pieters   Townsend

Okay   Mowatt

Wallace   Swift   Fellows

Weimann

Would be my call for this one. BTA to perform the role he should be performing for us as an impact sub.

[timdon]

Taking into account the injured, the knackered, the useless and the absent, we are going to struggle to put in a good performance I suspect.

On the contrary, this will be a "do it for Daryl" performance
We will rout them

The best of intentions still have to overcome the reality of our wafer thin and fatigued squad. We will see. 

[gazberg]

While i don't fear Cardiff ( esp. at home)  we are more than a few short. Things will be better on Friday though when Ajayi and Grady are back.

[iwastherein68]

Cardiff have a 6ft 5ins Centre forward

[caravanc58]

Doesn't mean he's any good, remember Paul Williams we got from Stockport 😭😭😭.
