Quote MessageGoals are clearly just like London buses for Cardiff City. You wait over five hours for one, then two come along at once. Only in this instance, the other team is driving the bus for you? Not sure how far the analogy will stretch, but Cardiff are just happy that Shane Duffy is here. He's now on a hat-trick, of own goals....
