' Play-offs at least '

It seems an eternity the Bluebirds have been knocking on the door of the top-six and, despite dips in form and misfortune, they have always managed to avoid falling away.

What is without doubt is that Cardiff do have the quality to secure themselves a play-off spot at least this season.

The problem, as identified by Slade himself after this win, has been a lack of consistency.

The festive period as always is going to be pivotal. The next run of games will go a huge way to defining just what sort of campaign the Bluebirds are truly going to have.

Their clash with Sheffield Wednesday in the Welsh capital on Saturday is going to be massive with the Owls in the same boat as the Bluebirds.

Slade and his men have a real chance to set down a marker, to show that they have what it takes to really make a push for promotion.

There are many critics of manager Slade, who is basically a novice at this level remember. But is he finally starting to implement what he has learned?

There may not be swagger yet, but his side are starting to show some lovely passages of play, some real dangerous intent too going forward.

Not before time, you might well say.

Slade has had it tough, never had the budgets of his recent predecessors. But while they only beat the bottom side on Saturday afternoon, slowly but surely it seems Slade may be starting to get a grip in terms of how Cardiff are expected to play.

Agree

Tucker reacts to single performances more than most of our fans. It's comical. Let's see where they are after next 3 games, I do agree however he might well be learning from previous mistakes

All hail Mr. Tucker

I agree with whoever said the next three games are massive.

7~9 points gives tan issues with Slades request for reinforcements
4~6 - mid table no extra players with a few going
0~3 Tucker will be calling for Slades head

we can get 7-9 points.

With the form that we've been in so far this season, it's a miracle that we are in that playoff position. We are yet to find any great deal of consistent form so far this campaign. We spent 9 hours without a goal, and our top scorer has only 5. Before last Saturday, I can't remember the last time Cardiff scored three goals in open play. If we tighten up in the final third in the last 10 minutes of games, and continue to push forward and have a crack at goal like Tony Watt seems to be doing, then there's a massive possibility that we can pick up form, get a few wins on the bounce, and then we'll be flying! Hopefully Watt can inspire the rest of the squad to start chipping in with some goals. Finally, I am feeling hopeful. Please don't let me down City!!
