You`ve probably all seen it by now, so I have left it out so as not to confuse the readers. I have to admit when reading it though it confused me, and I thought I was being a bit dim! Of course those who know Dom will realise that is not possible eh? Right all report in please, who`s out there and where are you, and what are you up to today? Me I am currently in bed in the Capital with a stiff one..shouldn`t drink really! TEAM NEWS Kagisho Dikgacoi is an injury doubt for Palace after suffering concussion in Tuesday's draw with Nottingham Forest. Danny Gabbidon could play against his old club if he is ruled match fit or another ex-Bluebirds defender, Darcy Blake, could be selected. Cardiff City will be without striker Nicky Maynard (knee) but Craig Bellamy is expected to travel after being rested for Tuesday's win at Millwall. Defender Ben Turner is also in contention again after a foot injury. MATCH FACTS Head-to-head • Cardiff had the better of four meetings with Crystal Palace last season. The Welsh club won the League Cup semi-final after a penalty shoot-out, in addition to achieving the league double over the Eagles. • Palace have managed one victory from their last 12 Championship matches against Cardiff, courtesy of a 1-0 triumph at Selhurst Park in March 2011. • The South London club are three shy of 100 goals in competitive matches against the Bluebirds. Crystal Palace • The Eagles have hit form with two wins and a draw in their last three. • Southampton were the last club to prevent Palace from scoring in a league game on 9 April, since when they have found the net on 10 occasions - six this season. • Kagisho Dikgacoi is hunting his fifth goal of the season, and third in successive games. Cardiff City • Cardiff are bidding for a four successive league wins, last achieved in April 2011. • They have kept an unsurpassed three clean sheets in this Championship campaign. Have a great day all.....regards Dom!
I'll be listening in on ccplayer. I've predicted a 3-0 win for us today but it could easily turn into a 0-0 bore draw. Will be plenty of palace players up for it.
Will be on my way to Pembroke at 3:00 so will miss the game on City player hope Radio Wales FM will have it as Swansea KO is early.

Surprising start for Cowie but could be needed to counter the threat from Zaha. I didn't know Mutch was injured. Pity as he has played well in the last 3 games. Its all about picking a team for the job.
slight foot injury apparently, nothing serious so just a precaution. Still think we'll get the win. Was tempted to up my prediction but gonna stick with my original
How strong does the bench look? I think we will win a lot of games in the second half this season. As with the last couple of games, a solid first half, upping the tempo in the second half especially when the fresh legs come on. Here we go.
"We're Cardiff City...We're top of the League" (enjoying it while I can) EDIT: well Brighton just scored so that didnt last long
