    I wasn't there but Hogg got booked so why not leave it at that-the feeling is he wants to cloud his teams failings by bringing up other matters instead of why the away team had more shots on target and 1 less corner etc
    The silly thing is you can clearly see from that photo he gets the ball.

    I'm glad its us that's dishing out a bit of treatment for once, having teams intimidated of you is only a good thing.

    How bad exactly was Hogg's tackle on Conway? Was it even a bad one at all? Did he get the ball?

    Cardiff are going bonkers about it on their forum.

    That doesn't mean anything. If you break a guy's ankle getting the ball it's still a dangerous challenge. Getting the ball isn't the signature of a good tackle. You can get 100% of the ball and still be reckless.

    Mackay was not happy about it. “I thought it was an appalling and horrendous challenge. It was a scissors tackle. I can’t understand the referee’s decision on it. It was a sending-off for me."

    Sorry what was Britt doing starting a big game like this, he might have potential but was poor on his debut and was poor today leaving Whichelow on the bench a strange decision by all accounts. Lets face it we are poor up front, big Chris poor, Garner shown me nothing, Deeney big heart but no way a natural striker, weve rode our luck lately and have exceeded expecations but play offs your having a laugh.

    Well, that was an odd one.

    In the first half both teams were atrocious, but Cardiff less so. City had the better of the first 20 minutes but then their threat seemed to dissipate. Watford had no threat either, each time we had possession in the final third we contrived to mess it up spectacularly. Assombalonga was awful, probably wasn't the best game for him to be starting in. And we were far too direct. That said, Cardiff's goal was against the run of play.

    After riding our luck early on in the second half we started playing much better. I thought Doyley had a storming second half. Cardiff and their fans seemed nervous and started sitting deeper and deeper, you could sense they were there for the taking. Fully deserved the equaliser. Iwelumo could have won it with the last kick of the match if he could take a decent shot.

    It's a shame if Conway has broken his ankle cos to me it looked a very firm but fair tackle. Couldn't give a ***** what Malky thinks of it... in fact I do cos I like hearing him cry to the media as his Cardiff dream continues to stutter. I also thought the ref was a muppet.

    Well done to Sean Dyche. Another determined away result.

    Dyche was happy with our performance today!

    I thought we played better once Big Chris came on as we had a target man to aim for. Joe Garner I still dont know what he brings to the team.

    Good point for me overall

    F**king Welsh pansies.

    It's a contact sport and from what i've heard, Hogg WON the ball and took the fella on the follow through.

    Man up.

    They've been spurned by their respective sheep. It was a 50/50 ball, that both players slid in for. If one was to be booked they should both have been.

    First half we were terrible and Cardiff should really have made the most of it and scored more. Second half we picked up and dominated most of the second half, playing seem really nice football at times. The ref was a an absolute disgrace and gave everything Cardiffs way til we scored n then seem to fall in love with us. Doyleys block in the 94th was exceptional but goin forward he is absolutely dire.

    Got to say well done to the 500 or so who travelled, you did yourselves proud. The weather was absolutely diabolical, enuff said. Also have to say the Cardiff support was nearly as bad as Doyleys offensive play. We were expecting an intimidating atmosphere but it was like a library....at closing.

    From our position in the ground the Orns fans had a much better view of the challenge than Malky did. On the one view we were outraged that a foul was given, let alone Hogg getting a yellow. He went in with one foot leading only and clearly took the ball. Looking at the photo since, it may be though that his following leg wrapped round Conway too. Agree with others that once again the Ref was awful and Malky has obviously shaped a team of whingers in his own likeness!

    PS Britt wasn't awful. He didn't have a great half by any means, but there a couple of good moments.

    I love the way he responded when asked about the refs performance, something he definitely didn't pick up from Malky the Moaner!

    I see Cardiff fans have forgotten how their team treated Buckley at their place last year. Probably worse than Danny Fox's ankle smashing 'tackle'.

    Good result. Was annoyed with how many times Doyley wasted good opportunites though for us to attack, mainly about 3 throw in's in good positions and some terrible long balls.

    He got the ball, it was a strong challenge, if you're going to stop that then you're going to kill football even more
