    A Couple of loanees and you never know we could end up swapping places with Cardiff again. They were woeful and looked out of their depth...

    Cardiff don't have the skill to survive. Hoof ball, and kicking opponents, will only get you so far.

    Players are too cultured at premiership level to fall for hoof ball. That’s why Warnock has never been successful at that level

    I feel like we won today in spite of the owners, not because of them. If we manage to secure a good 3-4 loanees then I think we definitely have a good chance of being up there. But as we are right now, 1 or 2 injuries and we are right in the poo.

    Agree, this squad is far to thin for the campaign, once the injuries start we are in deep trouble...............<ok>

    Even though we lost all those players and playing a side that have not been together for long the football is getting much better as Potts puts his stamp on things......He could well be the real deal ..imo..

    I have no doubt he is the real deal Dai, but he will still need the tools to get the job done, and these Yanks are tying him down, the loan window will need to be used fully if we are to get through this season..........<ok>

    The team and management are showing that they deserve it. It’s not right to expect Rodon a U23 player to step up and play constantly over a season at this level. Nonetheless, he’s looking a right prospect. No wonder City were considering him.

    Excellent 1st half with some lovely inter play and should have been one up but for a poorly taken penalty, but happy overall with the performance. Regardless of what todays victory has done for us and the players morale Injuries will cost us no doubt we look light and Fer showed in his 1st tackle exactly what is needed . backs to the walls at times in the second but we looked dangerous on the counter so maybe that's something that Potter is working on , a tactic I don't approve of but hi ho we made it through to the end.

    If only the owners were as honest as the players, special mention for Mulder who was excellent and what an accomplished debut for Rondon, this young team deserve the backing in the loan window, but won't hold my breath though................<ok>
