Myself I think we will bounce back with a 3-0 win, we had the chances last night but just didn't take them that's football :ayatollah: :malky:

No think we will bounce back fine. Last game we lost we went on to win at Leicester game after, and then won the next 3. We should have won last night, could have easily been 3 nil to us just one of those games

I agree, I think it will be a 3-1 victory.

But it would be typical Cardiff City if Deano was to get his first win for wolves against us.

Wolves are under a lot of pressure and coming against us won't be easy but they will want to win as Dean Saunders has it hanging over his head.

No game is easy but against Brighton we didn't take our chances. Just one of those games were Brighton who are quite a dcent team punished us.

We lost 2-1 vs Peterboro and went to Leicester and stole a massive 3 points and grinded it out by the skin of our teeth.

Will be a very tough game but mates of mine who support Wolves have said as long as we keep Sako quiet then they have no other real threat or method of creativity.

Noones performances away from home when he starts is top notch.

Bolton and Blackburn he was brilliant at.

Yes and he made an impact, okay we lost against Bolton.

Away from home we usually benefit from taking a chances.. when it comes to counter attacking then Noone could really put some damage on some teams.

Agree in theory but he seems to have lost his way after a great start. Huge potential but its still that at the moment - potential.

Noone game is based on if he beats the fullback in the first 5 mins especially when he plays on the left.
Not so bad on the right because he can cut in and cross or shoot.
He needs to get over that and in time his Decision making will get better.
I always feel bellers is pissed off with him :lol:

The Bluebirds’ six-match unbeaten run was ended by Brighton’s shock 2-0 away win on Tuesday – only Cardiff’s second defeat in 11 after seven wins and two draws.

Sigurdarson believes the seriousness of Wolves’ plight is such that it simply doesn’t matter who they play any more, with victories vital to avoid a second successive relegation.

Wolves prepare for the Championship leaders’ visit without a win in 11 games, a run that has plunged them into the second tier’s drop zone for the first time since October 1999.

Tuesday’s 2-1 defeat to rivals Barnsley means the team is now in its worst run outside the top flight since a club record 19 matches without a win in 1984-85 – the last time Wolves were relegated from the second tier.

And Sigurdarson believes they must block out the opposition.

The Iceland international said:  “All that counts is that we come off the pitch with a victory.

“It doesn’t matter who the opposition is – we won’t be thinking about that.”
