Re: Cardiff City2 Leicester 2 League Cup
They were saying on SKy Sports News that Cardiff really were looking tired at the end. I know they didn't have their first team out either but they also don't have as big a squad as us so perhaps this could bode well for the game at the weekend if a couple of their 11 have to play again on Sunday. That said I'd definitely take a 2-2 draw at the weekend

I think Kasper would have saved the second one for damn sure and I'm surprised Sven didn't think during the course of the game, that it might be useful to bring him on incase of penalties.

The bonus track on REM's seminal first album I believe. Good spot Homey.

I've never met a peole so don't understand their minds. And what wasn't all the same?

I realise that this post may not be serious but I will reply just in case it is.
The objection to Yann's penalty was that it was arrogant - he was trying to be clever.
Waghorn also missed a penalty just after Yann but it was simply a poor penalty and so he remained popular.
I have not seen Fernandes effort and while I agree a penalty taker should at least be on target there has been no suggestion that he was trying to be clever.

Spot on. the extra time was a complete waste of time.
It was a real pain. I didn't get home until well past 10.45.
Joking aside I felt a huge respect for all of you lot that did travel. Especially BM and his 11 hour odyssey.

The 90 minutes were entertaining enough. I thought St.Ledger did pretty well - far better than Mills but that's not saying much. Schlupp was lively although faded after about 70 minutes. Johnson was solid enough in front of the back four, a couple of good touches, but again faded a bit which is probably only natural. At least he lasted longer on his return than McPhail did.
We really shouldn't have let them equalize, we were on top in the 2nd half, but whenever they did break you felt an error was always likely.

Such a shame we've gone out of this prestigious tournament though, watching the League Cup Show was like an education last night in recognising stars of the future and the reserve squads we might need to loan from if an extra boost is needed.
