    Revenge for the October DEFEAT ... ... ... CARDIFF 2 - 0 CITY

    Perry Ng and Rubin Colwill’s goals secured Cardiff City all three points in the Severnside derby despite another committed effort by The Robins.
    Ng converted from a corner in the first half and Colwill sealed the deal with a display of individual brilliance and a fierce strike in the 89th-minute.
    City created the first chance of the game after Anis Mehmeti nicked the ball in midfield and fed Harry Cornick darting into the area and his smart touch took him inside, but his shot was deflected for a City corner.

    Stronger team now? Both teams locked in mid division 3 pts is needed from this one....

    Cardiff fans - Sparkey and his mates- are not very confident.
    Neither are we!
    0-0 draw.

    Blimey, you guys are keen with your match thread. You've clearly seen our recent form and are relishing the prospect.
    My own opinion is that if your lads can treat the derby like a cup game, then we're monumentality stuffed. To be honest it might not even take that to beat us.
    I should also point out that I'm rock bottom of our prediction league <laugh>

    I’d not realised Fammy was at Cardiff.
    Big Dave is bound to score against us - it’s written in the stars.

    He is on loan from Granada and has made 6 appearances with no goals. Knowing our luck it will be him the get the winning goal in the 89th minute. Is it his first visit back to Ashton Gate and I wonder what reception he will get?

    He doesn't get enough game time to do that sort of damage.

    Looking forward to my first visit to Ashton Gate. As for the score, well who knows.
    Going for a 2-1 to the Bluebirds simply because I’ll be there with my little pick and shovel.

    play like we did against QPR and Sheff Weds it will be a stroll in the park for your boys.

    play like we did against Southampton then your dead and buried.

    for me the upper one is my thinking 1-3 Bluebirds.

    Oh I don’t know Red Robin. Just because we actually won a game on Saturday we think we’re on a roll!
    If you play as bad as us we could be in for a boring 0-0.

    Ashton Gate will be a hostile place if we lose-natives already restless with this young coach who is meant to be a upgrade on Nige <doh> majority were very happy how things were panning out under Nige.
    Then the owners son decided to throw his toys out the pram when Nige told him a few home truths <laugh>

    This young coach who you don’t rate, has us 3 places higher in the table than your ‘messiah’ Nige did when he left, while only being allowed to bring in 2 loanees in the TW.
    You do love a self defeating argument RR<laugh><laugh>

    Whether or not Pearson or Manning is our head coach, we are a run of the mill mid table team, always have been, picking up pretty much the same results just in a different way.
