CARDIFF BOSS MACKAY CALLS FOR CALM IN TENSE LEAGUE RUN IN

Wed Apr 04, 2012 2:55 pm

KEEP calm and carry on supporting Cardiff City’ – that is the message from boss Malky Mackay as the Championship season enters its final month.

Despite a recent dip in form, the Bluebirds remain just two points outside the play-off places with six games to go.

The first of these will be a tough trip to promotion rivals Middlesbrough on Saturday and supporters’ nerves will now be on edge as the finishing line comes into view.

And Mackay has urged Bluebirds’ fans to keep the faith, just as they have done throughout his excellent first campaign in charge.










“Stay calm and keep supporting us,” said Mackay, pictured,.

“The fans have been truly fantastic to us this season.

“From day one at West Ham our fans were just incredible at that huge stadium.

“I remember the evening we played Southampton, too, that night the atmosphere was crackling and, well, what about Wembley?

“It’s amazing when the fans are going completely nuts and just singing and singing. It gives us such a lift.

“Even the games recently when things have not gone so well at home they are still singing at the end and clapping the players off.

“You can have nothing but total respect for that.”

Mackay’s men have exceeded all expectations this season as they have pushed throughout at the top end of the table and still remain in the hunt for a play-off place.

And he vowed there would be no let-up in the final month, adding: “We will be doing everything we can in these last six games.

“We will give everything we have got to try and get into the play-offs.

“I can assure everyone of that. Whatever we might be lacking, we will not be lacking for effort, I can promise you that.”

Watched them training today down a freezing cold vale and Malky had them working pretty hard. He took the whole coaching session himself and it all semed very positive and pretty competitive though there was no sign of Gunnarsson, Whitts [his car was there though], Rudy or Mason, while Hudson,Taylor and Lawrence were there but not on the pitch. Cowie trained alone presumably for a fitness test and Mc Naughton only completed half an hour before going back inside.

Cowie has just returned from injury so yeah they were probably just testing his match fitness
