' RUSSELL SLADE TONIGHT SAYS '

Saturday 29th November 2014

Slade said: "I think we set our stall out in the first half. I thought it was a good away performance in the first period against a very good side.

"They created chances - they'll create chances against everybody in this league - but we were resolute and we kept persevering in the second half. We were trying to remain a threat as well on the counter-attack, but it was a really, really solid performance.

"We couldn't have delivered that three or four weeks ago, that's for sure, but we're coming together now, the group's coming together, working hard for each other. I saw some really good qualities out there today."

Slade said he was "delighted" for match-winner Le Fondre and added: "(I'm) delighted for the group because it's normal for people to knock us because we haven't won a game away from home, or just won one in 25, whatever it is."

Victory left Cardiff just two points off the play-off places and level on points with Watford, whose form has nose-dived.

Solid defensive performances and clean sheets are the recipe for promotion in this League, well done City, we are making steady progress. Slade is showing he is much more of a Pullis type of Manager than an Ole type......

Cringeable away stays when we know most of the were away trips in the Premier. But if it helps him sleep.

That was exactly as I saw it, we would have crumbled a month ago! Progress and Turner was a huge factor.
