Interim Manager Dean Whitehead will take charge for his 2nd game.


Cardiff City interim boss Dean Whitehead says he has no injury concerns ahead of his side's clash with Millwall on Saturday.

Wales youngster Rubin Colwill is in contention for a start, as is the returning Mark McGuinness, whose recall from Sheffield Wednesday was confirmed this week.

Meanwhile, Mahlon Romeo is closing in on a return after a recent hamstring injury, while Ebou Adams and Jamilu Collins remain out.

"I think with Rubin he had 45 minutes on Wednesday night. He’s been ill and he’s had a few problems, but everyone’s in contention to start," Whitehead said.

Well there is a protest:

Some on here might not like it, the minority as usual.

But fans have a right to have their voices heard and it’s outside.

Fair play to the younger City fans.



Outside Main Entrance / CCFC


Updated meet-up time is 2.15pm, Due to the original time being to early.

Bring your Banners, Flags with Tan out on.

It’s time to be heard,

We’ve had enough

I honestly think we need to be very careful.
If the plug is pulled it could be the end of us.

Unfortunately your common sense view will be viewed as your a Tan supporter, protesting will change nothing, but I agree with you it could backfire tremendously.

Be a tough old game against Millwall as they are looking for a play off spot and a half empty CCS will not instill any confidence in our players at all.

I 100% want change its been embarrassment after embarrassment under the current regime BUT with time running out in the January window and no new manager in place the timing of this protest worries me a little tbh.
Guess tho it's not in Tans best interests to see us go down as the club will lose value. The question is. IS there anyone out there that actually wants to buy us and change our fortunes? There's definitely potential if the club is run properly surely.
I would love new owners willing to invest but I feel Tan has tried but just doesn't understand football enough he's been misinformed and had a lot of bad luck. I would rather a new owner come in and Tan left respectfully Thanks for trying etc.. Than tell him to f*#k off if you know what I mean. Don't think it was his intentions all this it just hasn't worked out. Just my opinion.

Any news on if McGuinness is available?

Thats a fair assessment of the whole shit show at the moment

Bluebirds recall McGuinness
Club News
8 minutes ago
Central defender Mark McGuinness has now been officially recalled from his loan with Sheffield Wednesday.

Mark made 23 appearances for the Owls in all competitions during the first half of the 2022/23 season.

He is available for selection immediately.

This predicted City line up is a joke isent it? Nelson. Ralls. Harris. Just 3 jokes. I'm glad whoever does this isent our Manager what a stupid predicted line up.

We will huff and puff for an hour or so until Millwall finally score and that will be that.

I have asked this question before who the hell is going to buy CCFC ? Wishful thinking in the extreme if you think about it. Tan knows this and probably equates it as a weight around his neck. He will not invest it is obvious so what can he do ?

Does the club shop do shirt printing on match days?

L.Doughty - Match day ref .

I’d be genuinely surprised if there are more than 20 people at the “protest”.

And people coming to watch it don’t count in that number.

Good on the youngsters for doing it, I reckon at least a couple of hundred, let’s see who is closest in numbers .

As for the Lions:

Tyler Burey will miss the trip west, Scott Malone is working his way back to fitness after injury and Welshman Tom Bradshaw is set to lead the line for Gary Rowett's men.

What are the latest betting odds?

Cardiff win - 21/10

Draw - 2/1

Millwall- 29/20

I got a good feeling about today (think I’m still pissed from last night),everything goes our way today.

Good team selection. Happy with that

Good team.

Wednesday fans raving about McGuinness in League One so hope he delivers in the Championship today.

About to walk to the stadium from town after the usual pre-match drinks. Win is essential today.

This one will not be for the purists, no sorry we have a new style….

Etete will barely get a touch as the millwall centre half’s will bully him, ojo will be sub,d at h/t
Their forwards are units so mc Guinness will get a warm reminder about the championship

1-1 is my hopeful prediction but live in hope

I'm more than a little surprised by this post, as you are one of the more considered posters on here...

I couldn't (effectively) write us off before a game and will be behind the XI on the pitch until the situation is beyond doubt

It's odd that some of those (not necessarily you) who called for McGuiness' recall, are now questioning his place in the starting line-up

Looking forward to this one and hoping we can play up to our potential with a decent looking selection...

Zian Flemming is their danger man in the #10 role. 10 goals in 24. Keep him quiet will be key.

I didn't realise Honeyman was at Millwall, also. Decent plaher.

1-0 Cardiff is my optimistic shout.

Sven mcguiness struggled towards the end of last season, he has been against L1 forwards and this lot unapologetically know what they do are do it well

Etete is nowhere near ready to lead the line at this stage of his career, if he can he will end up in the premier league. I would have started Harris or davies

here we go
