Not good enough

Didn't think we were good enough today- alright the 1st 30 minutes was good, we created a few chances and looked a decent side. Football matches last 90 minutes though, and the rest of the game was scrappy and Cardiff always looked likely to score. I thought they were a little lucky to take all 3 but when you only play well for 30 minutes your going to end up losing now and again.

The defending for both goals was poor, where on earth was the marking?- No one was anywhere near Johnson for the winner. I thought Russell played well for us- bags of energy, Dublin was also steady as ever. Lappin took his goal well and was neat and tidy but thats about it.

4 points from 4 games isn't great, the peformances haven't been good either. We just tend to play well for bits of matches, and thats not going to get us anywhere....
