‘ What they are saying about who will go down: ‘

James Ray:

“The fight at the drop is sure to be a scrappy one too. I really think Cardiff are in danger after a dismal January but one who might surprise some is Blackpool, with Mick McCarthy a shrewd operator in tense situations while the managerial experience of Mark Fotheringham and Shaun Maloney might come back to bite Huddersfield and Wigan.

“It’s sure to be an entertaining few months though, so buckle up for the ride.”

Luke Philips:



“There’s a few teams that you could say are proverbial dark horses in the race for 6th. I think Sunderland will struggle after losing Ross Stewart and I think Millwall and Blackburn Rovers will drop off. Coventry City are a team that could push towards the top-six after they had a decent showing in January, and I think Hull City will surprise a few people and move towards the top half of the table too.

“At the bottom, I think it’s very much a four-horse race for relegation between Cardiff City, Huddersfield Town, Blackpool, and Wigan. And all except Cardiff had decent January transfer windows so it should make for an exciting climax. I think Rotherham have secured their safety with a decent January transfer window.”

We are currently 4th favourite to be playing the Accrington and Morcambe next season. But then again, the bookies had Bake and Allerdyce nailed on to join us. Keep the faith.

Just about to say. I had no intentions of becoming the manager.

Fair enough. Are you a decent left-back and are you available on Saturdays and Tuesdays?

Loads of points still to play for - We need to stop letting in late goals and see games out :bluebird:

As a fan-base, many have bemoaned the lack of a 'proper' manager since Neil Warnock I don't include the out-of-date Mick McCarthy in that description) and everyone since has been criticised for 'not being the right man to lead the club'

At the start of the season, most Bluebirds felt we had (at least) a 'promising' squad and the first few games suggested that to be the case. However, since the departure of the now seemingly 'not so bad' Steve Morison (the author of his own demise) we have gone on the kind of run that sort of proves the rule, i.e. in the Championship, you need a manager who can both manage and direct

Finally, we seem to have one in the highly rated Sabri Lamouchi, a manager revered by his former team Nottingham Forest's support; a support that know a thing or two about good managers...

We are by no means down and/or out yet! I believe we have a squad that is better than its results to date and (finally) a manager who seems to know how to format a group of players into a 'team' and get the best out of them

We are not out of the woods yet, but the (immediate) future is suddenly looking a lot more promising than it was (sadly) under Mark Hudson

Lets's get behind Sabri Lamouchi Sol Bamba and the players and create an atmosphere that shows the positivity that will help them/us drive forward... :ayatollah: :bluescarf: :bluebird:

Cardiff City and poor game management appear to go hand in hand, as I've said consistently.
