Jones wants his men to wise up

Tue, 15 Sep 11:34:02 2009

Cardiff manager Dave Jones admitted "we have to be wiser" after his team's 1-0 defeat at the hands of Newcastle.

Scotland international goalkeeper David Marshall failed to clear Ryan Taylor's cross in the 17th minute and Fabricio Coloccini headed home his first goal for the Magpies. Newcastle skipper Alan Smith was sent off in the 90th minute for two yellow cards - but by then it was too late for the Bluebirds, who were second best throughout the game.

Jones said: "We knew it was going to be a tough game both on and off the pitch but we had to break 10 men down and we have to be wiser."

He added: "Newcastle stopped our flow and Alan Smith was probably unlucky to be sent off but they have Premier League players and know exactly how to put their bodies on the line when necessary."

  1. ant.smith1984 - The League of Wales was formed in the­ 1990s, decades after several Welsh clubs - Cardiff,­ Swansea, Wrexham and Newport had established themselves­ in the English system (as limo has pointed out). These­ clubs had an option to join the Welsh League but­ declined because it would have been financial suicide.­ Rangers and Celtic play in an already established­ league. It's as simple as that...
    Next time, try­ not to sound like a completely stupid pr*ck.

  3. Have to agree ant.smith1984, that is one stupid f***ing­ comment. Cardiff/Swansea have played in the English­ league since long before you were born (84?) and­ I've never heard another English fan have a problem­ with it. Grow up d***head.
    limo1wales L, no doubt­ you're reacting to that tit's comment but save­ us the 'victim' routine. Don't for one­ second pretend you'd complain if you were bought­ out by some rich Arab. And if you were actually in the­ Premier League with the increased revenue you'd­ have as many foreign players as anyone else.

    I'm a­ NUFC fan from Newcastle and have no time at all for­ nationalist biggottry. Keep it football.

  7. ant.smith1984 another English rant that full of the­ brown stuff! English league with foreign club­ owners...players...sponsorship..do you want me to go­ on?..here's a quick history lesson for­ you.

    Cardiff city fc formed 1899 played games WITH our­ neighbours for years & years in a small league. ­ apart from when the league was suspended due to the­ outbreak of World War One.Cardiff City has been playing­ in the English league since and well before a Welsh­ league ever begin... And they stayed there since­ ........and in my option earned the right! its strange­ how its never bothered the English much up until­ now....now that a welsh side has starting doing well? ­ its all "Cardiff shouldn't even be allowed to­ play in the­ championship its a English league".­ over 100 years and now they shouldn't be­ allowed.??

    PS Cardiff is British/English owned and­ managed and 90% of the squad is British compare this­ to man u..arsenal..Chelsea..Liverpool WHO'S MORE­ ENGLISH?
