Does it matter?

3 points is all that matters - although it's constantly being used to beat McCarthy with.

These minnows are getting more organised and stronger all the time. 

Gibraltar have a team in EL conference league now which is a sign of progress for them.


Jaysus are you not the same fella that said we should be beating Luxembourg no question. Luxembourg are a level above Gibralter, indeed they are at the same level as ourselves nowadays.


I do think we should be beating Luxembourg and Gibraltar.



Why should we be beating Luxembourg?

Why shouldn't we be beating Luxembourg at home?
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

Looks like Mick will be joining Chris Hughton on the unemployment line soon.

Realistically, the yawning chasm in quality is such that no manager simply based on his LoI achievements, however significant, is automatically qualified for the National team job, unfortunately for us. 

In appointing Kenny we've downgraded in a big way. But with our association's lack of financial clout nowadays this is something we'll have to get used to.
first sentence didn’t work out. Down to Mick??

Strange tactics again today with Cardiff playing five centre backs including Mark McGuinness, Bagan and Collins on the bench. Swansea were the much better team today although struggling also at the wrong end of the table. Mick turned it round for Cardiff last season but I think that's six defeats in a row now, one more than Neil Harris when he got sacked.

Losing 5 in the last 6 games, 26% possession in today's game, playing 5 centre backs... it doesn't really sound good for him after such a fantastic start. 

Mccarthys teams don't value possession of the ball and cough it up without a second thought. It just doesn't work anymore.

Hes a great man manager but he needs a tactical change.

It seems to have gone downhill very quick for Mick Mack alright. I would say people think past the sale when fighting over Mick or Kenny. I wouldn't bat an eyelid if Kenny wasnt given a contract and I say that as someone who hopes he does. He's a decent manager but he's not Sir Alex and is replacable I often liken managers/players to a tyre on a car vital but easily replaceable. A far bigger issue is if we don't renew we wouldn't replace him with someone who will carry on with what he's doing. 

We can't go back to what we were doing no way we were the worst footballing nation in Europe practically. Duffy is a great template look how much he's benefitted from improving his ability on the ball wholesale. Mick in that campaign had one job to do qualify and went the agricultural route. No issues with that he had to think short term. We can't go back to that.
