Cardiff City could most definitely be promotion contenders?

Consistency has been the biggest problem since manager Russell Slade took over in October last season, but they finally look to be finding some form under the former Leyton Orient boss.
The Bluebirds put in an exceptional away performance against Forest, with their front two of Kenwyne Jones and Joe Mason looking a real nuisance throughout.
If Slade can keep some key individuals such as Jones, Mason, Bruno Manga and Peter Whittingham fully fit throughout the course of the season, then it is hard to see them outside the top six this season if they can still keep their consistency.
The Bluebirds custodian David Marshall kept Forest at bay numerous times in the match, which will not have done the club any favours regarding interest from West Bromwich Albion.
With the Baggies still interested in Marshall, it could be a busy for days for the club – like Forest.

This is what I have noticed. This is good for us as it gives us a bit more time to find our feet. I still believe we are a work in progress unit and with the uncertainty of Jones and Marshall there could still be some work needed. Fortunately we have taken advantage of the whole situation and have the luxury of slipping up a bit, not much but better than nothing. If we hold on to the likes of those 2 then the signs are we could be challenging.
Over to you Vincent Tan.

Do you think you'll maintain your form? Personally I can see you dropping and missing out on the play offs, though Hughton is a great manager, and he could prove me wrong.

It's an average league. They are some very good players but there's not one team for me that stands out. The media love Derby and boro but Derbys manager is not the right man for the job and boro are weaker without bam ford and vossen. It's one of those leagues where there will be lots of drawn games and if a team can go on a run of wins then they could run away with it in the way ccfc did 3 seasons ago.

Couldn't agree more Gar, you must accept you will lose games as it's always been like that but sides will take points of each other. Nothing to fear

Hard to answer that as there's another three days to the close of the transfer window. It'll be premature giving my prediction now so I'll be happy to answer your question when the window shuts.

The only things I fear are the transfer window and Sean Morrisons defending!

Not true. Go back and look at the interaction between me and other posters and you'll see after debates we came to the same conclusion. You should really view threads and the interactions between posters before coming to your conclusion.
