    Villa have continued to drop points at home - Derby & Wurzel's still to play!

    The top stat says it all about the task facing Warnock's team tomorrow evening - our only win in recent time coming in our promotion season.

    Madine still likely to be out - an unchanged team from the one that beat Boro?
    • Ipswich have only lost one of their last seven home league games against Cardiff (W4 D2), losing 2-1 in October 2012.
    • Cardiff's last league double over the Tractor Boys came in the 1946-47 season in the Third Division South.
    • After winning nine of his first 11 matches (L2) against Neil Warnock in all competitions, Mick McCarthy has won just one of his last nine (D2 L6).
    • Warnock has won eight of his last 10 league meetings with Ipswich (D1 L1).

    A draw between Fulham and brizzle would be nice. Hope Leeds get a result as well. (Did I actually type that? Suppose it comes down to 'my enemies enemy is my friend'.)

    A result for us and we stay second. A win and we open a gap.
    Starting to get nervous before games now. Been pretty relaxed with lowish expectations to this point.

    I hope we win but I think it will be a draw. Happy enough with a point away from home and hope the other results go our way.

    Got to go out this evening and wont be able to follow the game, so here's the punts early for tonight.

    More than 2 match goals - £20 @ 23/20
    HT/FT Cardiff/Cardiff - £10 @ 5/2
    Anytime scorer Patterson £10 @ 9/2
    Anytime scorer Morrison £10 @ 7/1
    Anytime scorer Bamboo £10 @ 12/1

    That's a biggy 60 quid for this one again <yikes> but it's worked before - I'm still well up so let's give it a go.

    can't help that the second one is doomed, Sparkey. We could weel win but I don't see us winning at half tome.... not enough stress in that for me.

    The way you're going, we might have a bit of a wait.

    One thing in your favour is there is no runaway top scorer with lots of players chipping in. It increases your chances even if the bookies don't see it that way.

    remote - we'll probably draw 1-1 with our goal coming in the second half from Hoilett...<doh>

    Hey, just a minute, I wonder what odds I can get on that...<laugh>

    Damour couldn’t hit Doris’s arse from a metre...not interested in scoring goals...reminds me of McNaughton! :emoticon-0103-cool:

    Excellent result taking into account forced changes. Big Ken looking menacing again and Madine looks to have made a difference.

    On to the Wurzels. Trust Leeds to mess up by letting Direby score at the death.
