Not one that lends itself to easy description. Did I think we played well? No, not really. Did I think we competed? Yes, we probably did.
I thought the first half was something of a non event really ; their first goal was scruffy beyond words, the second resulted from a piece of doziness by young Cameron that he needs to learn from. At that point, I was fearing the worst, but within seconds of the resumption we scored the goal of the game through Orlandi and I felt were on the front foot most of the time thereafter.
The loss of Madine did not help us though, and whatever Peter Clarke is, a leader of the front line he is not, unfortunately. Nice goal though, but just a consolation after a very poor decision by the referee to gift them a second penalty. One of the biggest homers I've ever seen, and he helped the to get over the line.
So, once again, a willing and honest performance. But as the table suggests, they are as a group simply not good enough. |  |

Whilst the record this season is indefensible, the one thing I would say is that no team can go through practically a third of a season with one on loan striker with his only back up a 32 year old central defender who can't kick a ball very well! | |

Be interesting if Madine isn't fit for next week - Will he got with a 4-6-0 formation! | |

I forgot to mention that it was "Judgement Day" (I kid you not) in Cardiff yesterday, with two Welsh RU league games being played at the MillStad.
I think it involved Cardiff, Newport, Scarlets and Ospreys, but at any rate meant there were thousands of rugby fans in the centre of Cardiff. It felt a bit like being a neutral at a Cup Final day, weird. [Post edited 26 Apr 2015 11:39]

Lost track of our fixtures a while ago. Virtually all season has been a non-event for me and I'm having to try hard to drum up enthusiasm for football in general.
Bournemouth going up is about the only interesting thing but even that's tinged with a fear of what may happen to them in future when they hit the glass ceiling called "unfair money distribution" that killed off on the pitch competition in the Premier League a long time ago. | | | |

Robbie, I would have though by now, even you, as a founder member of the Titanic Orchestra, would have realised your trombone is full of water?.  |  | | |

Maybe Giro. But it remains ideally equipped for p***ing on your bonfire whenever required. | |

Good summary as always. I do feel that Orlando is playing for a summer move. I can't see him or Cuberonstarting next season in tangerine and feel they will likely force a move if we don't make attempts to sell. I think Sam needs yet another new car so koko will no doubt fund it from this...allegedly... |  | | |

I thought we more than matched them for long periods but with no cutting edge and some gift wrapped goals for them it was always going to be a more of the same day.
As an unredeemed clapper (happy on our current circumstances would be pushing it a bit far) one of the highlights of the day was to hear again our premier league anthem getting an airing. | | | |
