Silent is golden some times but not when you are a football manager but not when you loose. A bit unprofessional of Cardiff City boss Dave Jones to swerve the after match interview with Sky last night. He sent assistant manager Terry Burton out to do the interviews while he was I hope reading the riot act back in the dressing room.
Burton had a pop at the ref has expected about the disallowed goal from defender Dekel Keinan, looked a goal to me but watching on TV the pundits reckoned the ref got it right. To Cardiff it was a goal – to Ipswich it was off-side, and then at the end of the game Cardiff is up in arms while Ipswich don't care they won. The big winner and always the win in this is the ref ‘right or wrong’ crap, are the pundits with their cameras and slow-motion. However, even after all the slow-motion and studio chat some fans will put their hands on a Bible and swear it was a goal.
Time to back off the officials yesturday the officals will not change their minds and can't, everyone makes mistake's. I believe in the staying -swings and roundabouts.
After game Burton told the gathering media,
“We are gutted.“We don’t like to loose any game but when you look at the performance it did not warrant a 2-0 defeat.“I don’t think anyone will say we deserved to loose that 2-0.“They got their goal and it gave them something to hold on to, we had to try and break them down then.“We would have liked to kick on with more chances after they scored, but we had enough in the first half and we should have put one of them away.”
On the penalty decision he said,
“Sometimes you have to wonder if there is some sort of conspiracy going on. We do not seem to get many decisions.“We have had a legitimate goal disallowed for offside when most other sides will get it because there was only a pair of shorts between the players.”
On the Ipswich keeper
“Their goalkeeper got a bit lucky.“Shots were coming off his legs and bouncing over the bar instead of going in.“But his job is to keep the ball out of the net and, in fairness, he did it well.”
There are still 33 points up for grabs, 11 games to be play the same has all our rivals. We should have won yesterday but we didn't, every eyes should now look forward and to Crystal Place on Tuesday night.
