Just didn't see it coming, credit to Moore, great finish
Keep the faith Mike, we always have a goal coming after the 76th minute, it’s our goal scoring period (76-90th)

We could do with getting hold of the ball and keeping it a while. They’re dominating possession and finishing as they started.

Having done all the hard work to get in front it’s so annoying to see two points gifted away.

… and their goal scorer was completely unmarked in the 6yd box. He was Harry’s man to mark and all he was marking was space, the same space that Hladky had covered.

Lot of football left in the season.

Let's see how we react to this disappointment. There will be chances going forward.

McKenna will be so annoyed with that. We really should have been able to see that game out. What a wasted opportunity to go back to second.

I was looking forward to watching the Hull City v Leicester game but not sure I can face it unless Hull give them a pasting which is highly unlikely.

I still say we should have played Axel at RB Clarke was the weakest link he wanders into the midfield, we still tried to play Tippy Tappy in added-on time instead of clearing our defence, I think overall Cardiff knew how to play us out of the game they never gave up hassle hassle and it worked

Aw poop!

Had to happen sooner or later, cannot keep living on the edge and get away with it all the time.

Disappointing but let's bounce back, we had a good run.

I’d agree if he was fit enough but he’s some way behind the rest of the squad when it comes to fitness and looked very tired when he came off against Bristol City. I think Cardiff would have run him ragged today.

What the f*ck happened there then. To lose two goals in additional time just isn't acceptable. Players lost their nerve right at the end or something but this is not above bullshit. How can you lose a winning position like that, just can't comprehend some things at times. Did predict a 2 - 1 home victory and so it came to pass but this just isn't acceptable particularly in the manner it occurred.

wouldn't be so bad if we lost to earlier goals but to miss out completely like that is, just can't always find the words. Forget play-offs, we're better than that. 6 wins in succession before this, players obviously lost focus at the most critical time but remain in a great position to continue to challenge auto promotion slots.

We have to keep a sense of perspective though, six straight wins ! How many did we expect 16 ? We were always going to lose at some point, it's just the manner of it today as we were so close but the truth is we didn't deserve it and failed to play any real football, it was a bit of a false dawn that we took the lead as never looked like scoring before the goal or after it. We move on.

Totally agree, we didn't do anywhere near enough to gain a positive result from that. It happens in football, move on!

KMck gets his substitutions spot on normally today he didn't. :shock: He should of brought Travis on for Luongo who is more defensively minded than Taylor and he should of brought on Axel for Clarke.
