    Last season was bad enough with Man City, Man Utd and Arsenal all away with West Ham art home. 0 points.

    This season's January fixtures look equally ominous.

    Boro and Norwich away with Fulham and Derby at home.

    City are perilously sitting in mid table but not that far adrift from the trap door places.

    A poor January, and I cannot foresee much more than a 2 point return, will see City enter February like they did last year in a relegation fight.

    Slade has publicly stated he has no yet had a transfer window. Well he has one now, and unless he can acquire some footballers with pace, zest and ability rather than the present moribund bunch then it's not out of the question City will be off to Burton & Fleetwood next season.

    Have to agree Nin.

    The words, "Stick a bomb up their arses" spring to mind. Collectively this is the worst we have been since about 2005.

    Could even have a nice short away day at Newport next season.

    Unless we draw Boro away in the cup of course. <yikes>

    Them or Sunderland away would be the absolute pits!!!!

    As long as we go 2-0 up and they get a man sent off before half time, we should be OK (just).

    It's a draw that offers nothing. I'd have preferred a big gun or a minnow.

    Still I suppose it is a chance for Slade to play some fringe players to see if they are better than the rubbish masquerading as first team players.

    Nothing to do with the ref when we played them about 6 weeks back Glam - in fact Linington was pretty reasonable that day.

    The guy in black in the middle wasn't the problem, it was the guy in black in our tech area along with his assistant arsehole Young. They had no idea how to close the game out at 2-0 up at half time against a 10 man Reading side for the entire second half.

    They scored one to pull it back to 2-1 toward the end, and you could see the blood drain from our guy's faces. They had no leadership on and off the pitch - and to be honest, it hasn't changed since mate.

    Okay. Good to be going into the cup game on the back of 2 away wins then. <whistle>

    I wonder if Karanka will have a weather eye on their cup tie the following Saturday and put out a weakened side against us?

    Man City at the Etihad would be a good scalp for him and we are only little Cardiff.......<whistle>
