End of Cardiff's play off hopes?

Sat Apr 09, 2016 3:56 pm

5 points away from 6th massive opportunity to take advantage today Wednesday playing home next game where they are very strong. It's been a good season but today I believe is the end of our play off hopes.

It's looking unlikely, but it's definitely not over yet. We'll have to be perfect, but Sheffield Wednesday could easily have a wobble and lose a couple. Keep positive until it's mathematically over!

A win was needed to keep pressure on Wednesday.

This was a massive let off for them and I am confident now that that's Cardiff's chance gone!!

Unfortunately I agree, I think we chucked it away today. Could have been just two points between us. Wednesday now home to Ipswich and basically relegated MK Dons. Even if we match both those results we will be 5 points behind with three games to go. It's to much :bluebird:

No strikers = shit goal difference. Simples.

I agree even though they have to play derby away then us at home but we have to win every game until then and rely on derby

Think you are right, they gave it a go but the games are running out and today was our chance but the reality is, we need a Goal Scoring Striker, :ayatollah:

Not over and one win changes everything. Weds got Ipswich not an easy game. Unlikely but always a chance as we still have to play them

That's it, realistically. And the end of the Slade era too.

Realistically we were always guna fall short. However it's far from over a one win and a result goes for us and we're back within 2 points with Wednesday to play! Cheer up you miserable bastards!

I hope he's not given another contract , he has done a decent job and can leave with his head held high , I just don't think he is the right man to take us forward

If Slade isn't going to get another contract I bet you Tan will go for an overseas manager we haven't heard of because he likes the Watford model.

tbh I think the Watford model has worked out well for them but think alot of potential managers will be aware that Slades contract is up at end of season and the Cardiff job is an attractive job now in the championship so I would expect there will be alot of applicants

Thats if its certain Slade will be going and I think Tan wants to sign players like your Saadi's and Zohore's and have a continental manager playing them and turning them into gems. :thumbup:

We won't make the play offs been saying it all season and not wavered on that at all. However it's not over yet, there is still a chance realistically we can do it.
