CARDIFF CITY NEEDS YOU / TURN UP IN YOUR 1,000'S FOR A VERY IMPORTANT RELEGATION BATTLE



Squad - missing players for Leeds game, how is it now?




Rubin, Gav and Cedric were all out. They have been poorly. It’s been a return to play over the last couple of days. Still to be assessed ahead of tomorrow.

They are all back in the building and back on the grass. There was a small group I took yesterday.

Robinson is available. Rubin is available. They are all available, but they have been poorly. There’s been a lot going around. They have missed quite a bit. Robbo lost six kilograms since he has been off ill. We have to be mindful of that. We have to protect them.

"We have a plan in place v Wigan."


Mark Hudson:

"If we play like we did against Leeds then we will give ourselves a good opportunity to win the game.

For the players to be clear on what the game plan is, we have a plan in place and for them to carry that out."

Be interesting to see who he plays after a such a good display against Leeds. OK Kipre back NG back please not the slow go backwards Ralls why he's captain beats me why he was even given a new contract the mind goggles yet let Shaun Morrison go????, give Harris a rest O.Dowda in his place. Robindon off the bench. Colwill not needed. Rest same as Leeds match they deserve their chance.

Colwill not needed?? Wtf

Why so much fuss over Colwill he's yet to have a great game for us.all we hear is how talented he is so it's about time he proved it.

Cardiff are without a win since the end of October, and have drawn a blank in their last three league games, but their showing against Leeds United last time out shows they are capable of showing some teeth up front.

A win today would certainly go some way to easing their relegation concerns.

If we lose today Hudson surely can't carry on but we shall see

Why so much fuss over Colwill he's yet to have a great game for us.all we hear is how talented he is so it's about time he proved it.

Clearly you weren't at Anfield...?

I know he is local lad, young and there's no doubt there is a player in there but ONE game now and again is not really what we need.

Confirmed line-up...

Latest match odds
Betfair - Cardiff vs Wigan

Cardiff - 1/1

Draw - 23/10

Wigan - 3/1

Cardiff City: Allsop; Ng, Nelson, Simpson, O’Dowda; Wintle, Ralls; Harris, Ojo, Philogene; Davies.

Subs: Alnwick, Sang, Kipre, Sawyers, Rinomhota, Robinson, Etete.

Ng is caught in possession and McClean nicks it off him and feeds Callum Lang. Lang bursts inside and hits one from 25 yards, but it's always rising and well over the bar.

Close! Wintle with a lovely cross and Amos flaps at it. It falls to Harris 12 yards out, but he scuffs his shot and it's saved again by Amos. Big chance, that.

Cardiff play down the left as Philogene releases Ojo, but a Latics defender is across to slide in and dispossess him.

Jack Simpson goes down. Looks to be another head injury. That's a couple of knocks to the head for him. He is to be assessed on the pitch by the medical staff.

Covered in blood

Simpson is bandaged up, Kieffer Moore-style, and back on the pitch.

Philogene lucky to escape with a yellow card afterva studs up challenge right in front of us!

LATEST SCORE: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 0 ENGISH WIGAN

Wigan have a long throw, in towards Caulker, but Nelson does well to rise about him and head clear.
