Without wishing to come across as being awkward how is a night where the 2 teams above you in the auto places winning and pulling away, good?

personally i cant see us finishing in the top two this season but you never know, id like to see the teams just below us losing to consolidate our place in the top 6

We can easily pull that back. I mean we have not lost against a premier team this season.

at one stage southampton were 10 points ahead of us?

Exactly.

Exactly.

5 of the teams who are currently in the top 7 won in your leaguetonight. The two who didn't are yourselves and Boro, who lost to West Ham.

I'm bemused as to how this can be construed as a good set of results

werent blackpool and hull in the top 6 before tonights games??

Its obvious. Qye we did not win in the league but we kept our place. Thats good.

That strange thinking. Only 'Boro could have gone above you tonight and that would have been by beating West Ham which would have meant Wet Ham only 3 points ahead and 'Boro 1 point ahead. You seem to prefer the West Ham 6 points ahead and 'Boro 2 points behind option.

That makes no sense to me. Surely you want to keep that team in 2nd place as close as possible?

Awkward.

Awkward.

f**k off you Jack wanker. Those things we scored at home are called goals.

Aye, I think you'll find they are harder to come by in the Premier League against full strength sides. But seeing as we're currently the 13th best team in the country having already played Liverpool, Man City, Arsenal and celsea away we're not doing too bad are we you Cardiff wanker?

Of course you did so well against those... won 0 drawn 1 lost 4... btw your on a Cardiff board so if you don't like it you know where to go... PlanetSwamp.

Aye, and we're still 13th and have the equal highest number of clean sheets in the Premier League along with champions Manchester United.

By the way "All opinions welcome".

We could play the ball along the back four and then pass to the keeper, then play it along the back four again and possibly pass it to a midfielder, then pass it back to our keeper again, just because we can...

Your version of attacking football is possibly making it past the halfway line then the whole team get a nosebleed. You've got the most clean sheets amongst the Prem, Utd aside. Congratulations. Man Utd have also got a goal difference of 17 compared to your -4, guess what... Their 16 points ahead of you because they go further than their own half and actually score goals because they attack... If I were you I'd use a dictionary to find out what the word ATTACK actually means.

Do you expect us to have the same attacking cutting edge that Manchester United have?

That same style you mention got us into the Premier League and has us competing on a budget that is minuscule compared to those around us.

And last season had us score just 7 fewer goals than yourselves, finish above you with a better goal difference, and get promoted.

Swap?

You were the one that compared yourself to Manchester Utd. I'm just comparing you in another department. Don't try and make statistics look good when you can't make them look just as good in another department, just doesn't work mate!!! Would I change what you have for what we have right now... No not really, I'm quite happy enjoying a competitive league where anyone could beat anyone and that fans turn out because their 90% loyal to the club they actually support. Not because they are there to see the opposition.

Well you should be used to it, you've been in that league long enough.

And don't kid yourself, you'd love to be in the Premier League rather than the Championship. Any other statement is competely disingenuous.

I wouldn't have said it if I didn't mean it, and any jack that knows me will tell you the same. As you have no valid comeback I do believe I actually know hell of a lot more than you actually do, so don't bore me with any more drivel. Planet Swamp could do with you intellect

So what you're saying is you would actually prefer to stay in the Championship than try your luck in the Premier League?

For what it's worth, I hope your dream continues to come true

i think what hes trying to say is, that it was probably best we didnt go up, we now have a much more enjoyable team to watch, a better work ethic, a new manager who actually has a plan b and a plan c. and the general set up of things this yr seem to be better.. and like yourselves last yr, we are working to a tight squad and budget...

would i want 1 season in the prem league, with dj, being humiliated or make a change for this season as we have and get there through sheer guts and determination with malky and this squad...

Our squad/team was a bit of a mess at the end of last season, so I think it's best that we didn't go up and embarrass ourselves I think all of us who support CCFC would say the same thing.

Anyway, the Championship is a great league. Getting to the Premier League isn't everything. But enjoy it while you can.
