I think Malky has two problems at Cardiff:-
1) By going for quality over quantity. When you have the likes of Medel and Caulker in your team expectations rise and perhaps they have risen a little unfairly as we still have a lot of players involved who were there in the Championship.
2) Hull's form, Hull started off well and have attacked their way to good wins. However, Hull have a lot of experience at this level in the squad and even in the manager, even if their previous stints at this level were mediocre.
We think we can just go out like Hull but I have to say I am not sure if our squad is built for that, we are built like last season, tough to beat and until yesterday I wasn't disappointed with the results one bit.
In conclusion, let's give Malky time, he has always come through previous shockers such as the West Ham play-off games, Charlton away last season and all of the Peterborough defeats. Until yesterday I was delighted with our results and I believe a good win against WBA on Saturday will go a long way to putting us back in the right place.
We have a top manager who loves the club and loves us fans and has delivered for us time and time again, lets give him and the team all the support they need to get the big result on Saturday![]()

Two marquee signings. One talented French full back. One out of his league Dane. One reserve keeper. One over the hill Nigerian. Have I missed anyone?
Relying on last season's midfield players was/is a big, big mistake. Cowie, Gunnarsson, Kim, Mutch etc have no experience at this level and it is now showing.
No pace down the wings.
No goal scorers with experience at this level.
There have to be wholesale changes if we are stay in this league.

Yes, you have missed a few,,,John Brayford,,, & Simon Lappin. Also keeping Tommy Smith & a new one year contract for Kevin McNaughton.
Your not the only one that thinks our pre season signings were poor. Over all a case of bad judgement & sloppy management, at all levels too me!

Draw against last years champions, I'll take that.
Draw away to a relegation threatened rival who next game beat Chelsea. Good point if you ask me.
Lose to a Palace side on a high because they've a new manage and we were on the day extremely poor.
We need 6 points minimum from the next 5 games.
If we have not won any of the next 5 i'll start worrying but until then we knew it was going to be tough and all we as fans can do is try and lift a side that will need to be at it from the off on saturday. Lets concetrate on this rather than slagging off Malkay.
