Cardiff City - Play-off Semi-Final 1st Leg (Home)

[Wombat]

I think Toronto (Canadian Atlantic Time) is 5 hours behind UK (British Summer Time) at the moment. If that is true, the match will kick off at 8:15 your time.

Yeah... but i've been burned so many times by time zone differences, daylight savings time, etc

Best to get the big screen TV on early & tuned to the football channel, (possession is 9/10 of the law), so the missus has to watch her Coronation Street sunday morning wrap-up, in the bedroom

There was - a shed - a sacred shed
A shed - where no - one dare wear read
And if - you're from - Forest you're dead.
It's called - the Leicester Spion Kop.

I know I'm late but... what on earth's going on here. Bob?

 

[Harbro-Fox]

Can't wait for this game, we can't lose in my opinion certainly don't want to go Cardiff needing a win. I think we will draw this 1-1 with Hobbs scoring.

It does seem slightly unorthodox to use a past tense verb where such lowly peasants as myself would use an adjective, but I'm sure Boc will clear this up with a great explanation before we know it.

Weale
Morrison
Hobbs
Brown
Berner
Spearing
Wellens
King
Gallagher
Vaughan
Waghorn
Fryatt and Dyer to come on after an hour

Im going for a hard fought 2-1 win (3-1 would be nice) Morrison and Waghorn

I'd definitely play that team in the second leg - looks very solid. But at home I'd like to see Dyer in there. Can't decide who i'd drop though!

 

[Profondo Rosso]

what the hell will you be like WHEN(if) we get to Wembley??:icon_lol:

I think I'll have to stop at a funeral parlour on the way, just in case. :icon_wink

 

[beaumontfox]

Bless.........it's easier for us old uns cos we've already been there and done that. I hope for your sake you don't have to go through the heartbreak of a defeat though.:icon_cry:

So you think it'll be a draw, but don't want to go to Cardiff needing a win? Hoping for 120mins draw and a win on penalties?

So do I. :icon_sad:

 

[Blue Maniac]

Stop worrying about Cardiff and start planning your trip to Anfield next season.

 

[Harbro-Fox]

Yes, I think we will go through on penalties.

 

[beaumontfox]

Feck that. I expect my nerves to be shredded at Wembley, not before!

 

[Miles Away]

Game will be on Sunday - lunchtime kick off in UK/Europe, with an early morning start for viewers in USA & Canada.

Game is going out live around the world, Sunday morning 7:45am KO for me on Setanta Sports

We have a mighty army of about a dozen City fans in Toronto, so have to decide between bacon & egg & a mug of tea and watching at home with the kids, or getting down the pub (Duke of Gloucester) for a crack with the lads in a smelly pub with a 20 year old TV?? (No beer served before 11;00am )

Is that Fox Soccer Plus as it has been rebranded? I've not seen it on the TV Schedule online yet.

I felt like someone had stolen my soul when that Welsh bastard tucked away that penalty for Swindon.

I can only hope such heartache does not await our young TBers.

 

[Miles Away]

Oh...one last thing.

72-0 Penfold gives us a first leg advantage. The Colonel chips in also.

Ah, easier one than the Jamaican national team. :icon_wink

Well it's obviously Juventus with Paulo Sousa, Vialli and Del Piero playing for them. Didn't realise Ravanelli played for them though.

It must be in the mid 90's sometime, but I don't know the exact event.

Balls, got there first. :icon_sad:
