Why this thread hasn’t already been renamed Cardiff ft ZL1 I will never know
Updated end of season ladder prediction from what I've seen so far:
1. Croatia
2. Mayfield
3. Swansea
4. Suns
5. Kotara
6. Uni
7. Olympic
8. Stockton
9. Cardiff
10. Warners Bay
11. Westlakes
12. Azzurri
I disagree with this, been solid for a newly promoted team. What I will say is Cardiff vs Westlakes in a couple of weeks may be just as interesting in the grand scheme of things.
Will Croatias latest big name be starting tonight? No doubt will be a frosty reception for him as someone on the forum mentioned he turned down Cardiff who offered a large sum of money to sign him. It wouldn’t surprise if this game has a few cards in it
Score updates?
The answer is yes. If you going to pay him that much you ain?t going to out him on the benchQuote:

Cardiff robbed.
Any scores from tonight?
What happened? Please explain
Stockton 3-6 Uni
Cardiff 2-3 Croatia
Two blatant penalties not awarded. Competitive game nonetheless.
Poor Vincent must be eating out on frozen pizzas the way Cardiffs season is going. I hope his microwave oven is working?Quote:

Sounds like it would have been a great game for Bar TV.Quote:

The only thing that will stop them is the fact they can?t keep a clean sheet. It would be interesting how many they have kept in their 3 years back. I reckon they would be lucky to have kept more than 5.Quote:

Pay him that much?Quote:

Very competitive game. Not as physical as I expected. Skilled, fast, and end to end.
Cardiff missed some gilt-edged chances in the first half and almost pinched a draw with a late shot against the base of the post, but the score is a fair reflection of the game
As a neutral, a very entertaining game.
NPL ref in the middle tonight. I wonder how much more often that will happen this season in ZPL
Squadi is showing 9-2 Kotara over Westlakes. Nothing showing from Stocko
Kotara against Croatia has to be match of the round this weekend. Kotara press hard for the full 90 and I won’t be surprised if they are the first to grab points from the Croats this season
Cardiff aren't a bad team they just don't quite understand what it takes to win. In big moments they go hiding, they are the Arsenal of ZL1.
Round 4 Predictions
Mayfield 5-2 Warners Bay
Suns 3-1 Swansea
Kotara 2-2 Croatia
Stockton 1-2 Cardiff
Olympic 2-4 Uni
Westlakes 3-3 Azzurri
Interesting to note that no team has been kept goal-less after 2.5 rounds.
A lot of games to watch this weekend:
A strong start for Kotara could come to an end as they look to upset the competition favourites.
Cardiff have there best opportunity to get points on the board, always a tough away day at Corroba.
The relegation battle: Westlakes v Azzurri
Round 4 Predictions
Mayfield 4-0 Warners Bay
Suns 1-1 Swansea
Kotara 1-3 Croatia
