For me the REAL CRIME was JET stupidly playing for time by running ball into the corner flag with about 8 minutes (including stoppages) STILL TO PLAY. I was screaming to him at the time not to do that - it's a very stupid, arrogant and dangerous game to play. After that, as sure as night follows day, I just knew Cardiff would go up the other end and equalise, and bang on cue that's exactly what happened.
JET cost us the 3 points in that moment, not Ramsey - and I do hope he got a damn good bo||ocking for it afterwards.
But to me Stupid & dangerous is fair enough.
Stupid because to me it sent out the message of desperation, and dangerous because as we found
out they got a goal.
Don't blame JET for the dropped points though

Just to highlight the state of the passing from yesterday. The numbers next to the players is the amount of passes played by each player (not successful though necessarily)."What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value.

there was only one man responsible for that shambles yesterday and that was Ramsey. I would have played Polter up front with Charliie for starters. The irony of us moaning about how many midfielders we've bought and yet Cardiff controlled the game from kick-off. Two points lost? For Cardiff maybe, we were completely lost out thereI must away now, I can no longer tarry
This morning's tempest I have to cross
I must be guided without a stumble
Into the arms I love the most
