Cardiff City's boss Neil Warnock says the Championship will be 'more even' next season without Brighton and Newcastle


Neil Warnock believes Cardiff City may have an opportunity to fight for promotion next season - because there will be “no teams like Newcastle United or Brighton and Hove Albion”.

Rafa Benitez’s Magpies and Chris Hughton’s Seagulls have already secured automatic promotion from the Championship this season, even though both still have a game to play.

But, despite clubs such as Sunderland and Middlesbrough appearing likely to drop out of the Premier League this term, Warnock expects a far more even second tier in 2017/18.

The Bluebirds boss - who watched his side fall to a 2-0 defeat to Newcastle at the Cardiff City Stadium on Friday night - believes there will be no dominant teams next year, meaning clubs such as his own can target a top-six spot.

“I don’t think there is a Newcastle or Brighton in the league next year,” Warnock explained as justification for his suggestion that Cardiff could aim for a play-off place next season.

“I think it will be very even.

“Even though we’re not spending a lot of money, I think with what we’ve got and four or five additions, I think we can be up there.

“The bookies will probably put us just below halfway.

“But you never know in the Championship. If you get a team spirit like Brighton... they’ve taken three years.

“We haven’t got three years... well I haven’t.
