...about turning us over on Tuesday night. I hope their pitch is a lot better than the ploughed field at the KC. If we keep on top of Zaha, Murray and Bolasie and score first I reckon we could come away with at least a point. A good ref would be nice but I think I might be asking too much.
I think we can get the 3 points, especially with our new attacking prowess. After Bolton, hope we have learnt our lesson and stay totally focused on keeping a clean sheet in the opening 20 mins.
But wouldn't you expect that? They're a good side who are only 4 points behind us and a win would put them right in the mix for an auto spot. As SB keeps saying, it will be the side that makes fewest mistakes on Tuesday night that wins the game, it should certainly be a cracker!
We have to be cute for this one, we're normally far too nice. Zaha and Bolasie suffer from dropsy, twelve penalties already this season and we can't depend on a ref with any ability. We're better than them, we've just got to make sure we don't get caught out.
Good, let them underestimate us and hopefully we can give them a nice suprise! Will need to be at our best though to get 3 points but a draw won't be a bad result (last minute equaliser conceded aside of course).
^^this is the big problem. Those 2 were throwing themselves to the deck at every chance at the KC! With a home crowd behind them the ref will have to be GOOD!
I think this game will be easier than we are thinking. Same attitude as we had at Watford, and we will do them. Didnt seem it at the time but that defeat at Bolton has done us more good than bad

yup, 3 home games where we could dictate then went to Bolton and got caught cold by them coming at us. I'm convinced that SB will have us on it from the get-go! Elmo and Brady will have more defensive work to do to keep their wingers quiet but I'm confident we can get a point at least.
I don't think it will be easy one bit, they are a much better home side than they are away, the feeling i get looking on there forums is that this is there biggest game of the season and they regard this as a difficult game and they will really get behind there team. I think its all down to how we defend, if we can hold them out then we have a decent chance of breaking away and scoring but i really think we will have to soak up the pressure and be at our best. A draw would be a great result
It's a hard game but for me we are the best team in this league now if we turn up no one can touch us.
They seem to be bricking it about Boyd on their forum, nearly all of them are predicting him to score!
They were fairly ****e at the KC and if we'd had Boyd & Gedo that night it would've been 3-0 City. However, Murray was out that night, and despite Zaha's plaudits, Murray is the hub of that team. They're dangerous and although Bloasie & Zaha are extremely overrated, Brady & Elmo will still have to be careful. I reckon it'll be a draw or we'll win it by one, expecting a close game though.
Cardiff fan, As I said I will be hoping you win and stay second which could leave us only Watford to worry about. Top or second will do us fine. jck
Just a quick question, how come you feel the need to put 'jck' at the end of all your posts? Do you not realise that your username comes up at the left every time you post? Doesn't really bother me, just seems a little odd and a little pointless. As for the game, I hope we win too.
A down to earth cardiff fan, nice to see. Hope its us 2 that go up auto too, although we'll have first
