To Win Championship:

Worth a tenner

Toughest Championship in a long time, the top six listed look strong and below them to 12th.

Bookies are rarely wrong , as it stands I think that’s fair , the truth is we will be in a relegation battle with this squad , it needs more quality but more importantly it needs bigger numbers ax it’s too small for the brutal challenges of the championship.

I should add to that , I hope I am wrong !!

Can't see past West Ham winning it as things stand.

I do hope you are wrong too.

Just a thought: how do you think we would have got on in League One with Riza and his team?

I know a lot of the players are the same, but the difference in this team (and we will add to it) and Riza's team is unbelievable. I think a lot of fans are still hurting and scared from that last season in the Championship; even though it's more competitive at the top, there will still be a lot of teams weaker than us.

I think we will be in the top half; top eight looks difficult, but let's see what quality we get in and how much the players have improved after a season of the Cardiff BBM way.

Like your optimism even for a tenner!

I've got a ton on us for auto at 66/1, 50 @ 25/1 via playoffs.

More chance the other way round perhaps?

£50 on autos, £100 on play-offs if I could afford it!

I had bets on us and Lincoln last season, so I'm just laying a small fraction of my winnings from then. Not betting person normally, only my 3rd bet ever and I'm well up financially. Like doing things unusually!

So basically If your not a betting man , this is how to works. Fancy your first tipple, then stick £10 on us winning it so you lose £10. That's how betting works

i think we will get top half but not win the whole thing when west ham wolves burnley southampton middelsbrough etc are in the same league battling for top spot.

We could even sneak an 8th spot which means the final spot of the play offs
but too many obstacles in the way to get to the top

I didn't win over 2k on us last season by sticking on a tenner.
I'm enjoying my Septagenarian novicnes
