Selred Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Absolutely massive game for both teams tomorrow, but what result would you prefer? 1) Cardiff to win, but that makes them 10 point still clear in 2nd place although keeps Derby very close to us 2) Draw, so we are 2 points of Derby and Cardiff are 8 points clear 3) Derby win, 4 points ahead of us but may start a bad run of form for Cardiff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coppello Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 A Cardiff win all day. This season is about us and I don't really care about how our rivals do. Keeping both Middlesbrough and Derby within a point would be an excellent result for this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Hate to say it but Cardiff win, Derby losing again will continue to hurt their confidence and keep us close to them, whereas Derby winning could push them on to securing a play off spot and we're not catching Cardiff.

cityexile Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Cardiff 10 Derby 0, with Derby docked an extra three points for fielding an ineligible player, and having five sent them off. Or as close to that as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swanker Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 If Cardiff play like they did against Brentford then it will be 3 points in the bag. They’re going up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Cardiff all day long. They`re going to finish in the top six anyway so I`d prefer they go up auto rather than beating us at Wembley to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they lost every remaining game they’d probably still finish in the play offs. Quite clearly a Derby win is the preference from our point of view.

Doesnt happen often but players can be sent off from the bench! Cardiff win for me - we could catch Derby so don’t want them getting too many points in front of us. If we are to get back in the top 6 I think it’s Derby we’ll replace...they are past masters at bottling it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres no limit to the red cards a team can get in one match. One team could get 5 substitute players sent off for a touchline brawl, the game wouldnt be abandoned as they would still have 11 on the pitch. They still would have had 5 red cards though. If they have 5 on field players sent off then the game is abandoned, they could still get more red cards though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said abandoning a game is ‘at the referees’s discretion’ - then you said ‘five red cards is the usual standard’ for an abandonment...now you say ‘there’s no limit to the red cards a team can get in a match’ ....I reckon 18 red cards is probably a ‘limit’ meaning there is no such thing as your ‘no limit’...

AppyDAZE Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 I fancy Derby to win this one. Everyone is thinking Cardiiff are flying (and they are) but Derby have decent players, are at home and will be up for it. Might not help us, but Derby to win. But of course, it will be all the referee's fault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in a mini league with Derby, Boro, Sheffield Utd, Preston and Millwall for the last two play off places. Despite all the miseries on here we have a good a chance as any of this group, at this moment we sit third and I do not think we are under the same level of weight of expectation as the two above are. Of those behind us the only one that concerns me is Preston, I think the others will fall away. Our run in is also about as good as it gets in this league. so, holding my nose, come on Cardiff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had originally cited the FIFA laws, misremembering them as the FA ones. Quote although a match may not start if either team consists of fewer than seven players, the minimum number of players in a team required for a match to continue is left to the discretion of member associations. However, it is the opinion of the International F.A. Board that a match should not continue if there are fewer than seven players in either team. As for the no limit, you're just being pedantic. Of course no team would have no more players sent off than there are in their match day squad. But you like to ignore common sense to put in your own meaning, so such a manoeuvre by yourself was to be expected, but it's my fault for allowing you by not being utterly explicit with my wording (not that that has stopped you in the past).

lenred Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 Colin having a right old moan on SSN, suggesting Derby basically have fixed the postponement, love it.

cheshire_red Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 ell, the Police have said the club called the game off, the club store tweeted it was still open for business today, then deleted it, Cardiff officials turned up and took pictures showing very little snow about, certainly far less than other games which were played 2 weeks go. Derby in a poor run of form and a few injuries, hmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
