Cardiff v Leeds FA Cup

[Monaco_Totty]

Well, some Leeds fans of a different generation certainly would love a Cup run & possible trip to Wembley for semi-final/final.


YEP stating Angus Kinnear has told JM that we should focus on having a good Cup run according to JM's 'presser' today.


So no excuses - as Leeds travelling fans from all over spend their hard earned travelling & attending week-in deserve a competitive starting 11 in every game, imo, as resting players etc ain't exactly done much use in the past regarding better PL position or improvements injuries wise.
Unless anyone can prove different ?


Many of us have had enough of FA Cup losses at the likes of Histon, Newport, Sutton, etc playing weakened teams.


'Momentum' is required now going into our next PL allocated games, surely ?


I also note the club has asked fans to change the lyrics to the new Willy Gnonto chant (circulating on Youtube).
(Must admit i do agree with the clubs stance on the lyrics).

I always liked Mourinho’s stance to all games - try to win them all.

That said good opportunity for others to show what they can do. Suspect Wober will get a run out.

Love Cardiff as a city just don’t care for their football team.

Like to see young scandanavian given a shot at keep in this game. Same with Heldje

It would make too much sense to play Drameh since he did so well with them last year.

Please rest Gnoto, Strujik, Koch, Adams, Summerville and, if he's healthy sinistera.

about time for bampuff to run 5 minutes or so and then go down injured for 2 months.

Humnm i wouldn't be confident in them playing as they played yesterday for the 21s. We have so many young decent CB and we keep playing the crap. We have a great chance to bring them on in there carriers and we are wasting them eg Drameh Hedje. I mean how worst can we get by playing them? Look at summerville Mb refused to play him This guy was the same till was forced and in one game all was changed and looking at the last game he was superb. How many times do we need to see Firpo Krysto Cooper Roca Larentee what are they trying to prove?
I look at the whispers whom we are looking for to bring in and once again shows no direction as they are looking at players that cant even get a game for there own teams.

Hmmm, it would be nice to win a game seeing as the last competitive game we won was 2 month ago.
Who knows, it may even give us confidence to win another game.
Defeat breeds defeatism, victory breeds confidence.
No youngsters just fresh out of nappies. 80% first team with the other 20% on the bench.
I don’t like getting beat, let’s take the fkers for a change.

But it's the 80% that haven't won a match in 2 months you sure you can count on them Billy?

Just watched the Newcastle game and the consequences of swapping out your defence for players who haven't had a look in for a while is a two one loss - Sheffield Weds to be fair to them were really up for it and put a shift in. Highlight of the game Wood firing 50 foot over the bar from about 12 yards out. In the event of Cardiff doing us over tomorrow have this one to realise it's as bad!
