It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

Know he feels Chris. We had 5 years of crap negative football including the year we got promoted.

Now its fast attacking football and so much better to watch. Had 45% possession yesterday which is good for us but had 16 shots to Derbys 8 and corners were 8 to 2 in our favour.

But alas we couldn't score but the point gained gives us 24 after 11 games and still top of the league.

It's now a year since Warnock arrived and same stage last season we were absolutely crap , had 8 points from 11 games and were in the bottom 3.

Need Wales not to lose on Friday then everything is all set up for a cracking final game next Monday against Ireland in Cardiff.

I'll be there Monday just in case we do qualify as I've been at all the other near misses so would be nice to see them qualify for a change.

Be really funny if Williams plays a blinder and scores the winning goal Chris :-)

Real Madrid playing silly buggers claiming Bale is injured and needs rest.

I don't think Bale or the Welsh medical team are going to have any of that nonsense and he'll play 90 minutes both games.

Well done Burnley!! Nurse.... NURSE!!!

More like the coroner is needed Chris

Stan's da man.

Thank you friends thank you tremendously... and I mean that most sincerely I really do 😀

Well Koeman's certainly got his work cut out, no confidence or leadership and Keane showed for the goal where he stood back and watched as Hendrick got his shot away rather then attacking and closing down the player that he still has a lot to learn about defending.

Only seven games gone though CC so no need to do anything silly 😃

You think you've got problems - we lost at home

to Man City !

Oh shit Bale really is injured and has been ruled out for our last two qualifiers.

I bet fecking Vokes is fit though , lucky us :-)

Sorry Toffee fans... but goal of the season or what https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2r6sXRc_BgE&feature=youtu.be

:( I thought you were all against tippy tappy. Great passing moves.

Generally yes.. specifically no 😊

Well that's a fine piece of logic Stanley. "I'm against something until it suits me not to be. But I still disapprove". Just accept that tippy tappy works if the players are clever enough to pull the opposition apart and get to the goal. As Barcelona invariably do and Burnley did in this instance. Great play wack.

Enjoy IT.. just enjoy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2r6sXRc_BgE&feature=youtu.be

I got no problem with tippy tappy football either if played in the last 3rd of the field. It's wen its played amongst the back four and midfield in the centre of the park bores me and its aimless. Makes the stats look good possession wise but goals , shots on goal are a better measure of who made the most of their possession

Think Cardiff are now averaging almost 43% possession for the season , we ever get it above 50% and we'll be unbeatable given what we do with it.

Wales have never beaten Georgia so tomorrow would be a good time to break our duck. Hope Ireland win too then it's all to play for Monday in Cardiff.

Dill, your main game is against Burnley Reserves on Monday evening of course.. maybe you like IT and CC will be lucky enough to see a goal like this scored against you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2r6sXRc_BgE&feature=youtu.be

...Not going on about it am I ? 😎

We score at least one like that every week Stan.

Go look at our goals against Leeds last Tuesday and they all better than that.

And you were playing a crap team :-)

Carduffers and Weeds.. oh that's so lower league 🤣

Well England are there....good...never really that easy to qualify nowadays...I don't agree with the general stance that England had a very easy group...what ?...with Scotland/Slovakia and Slovenia ?....they are not easy to deal with...so well done England as far as getting there with a game to spare....that said there are midfield problems to be sorted...that's why defending is difficult because tracking opposing players seems to be a problem....anyway Scotland have another difficult task ahead...Northern Ireland have a big chance of getting to the finals....Wales have to win tonight against Georgia away without Gareth bale...and if they win : Ireland is waiting.....and the crazy thing is unless they clock up a lot of points and others don't : one of them might be the least best second placed team...How on earth did Fifa dream up such an unfair scenario ?.....nuts !....please change that format Mr Fifa and Uefa officials !....thanks...

FIFA are joke organization. Thursday and Sunday Internationals.
