Yes Thai, it's been on BBC Wales sport for a few days.

Cardiff City have postponed a promotional trip to Malaysia because of the poor air quality in the country.

Manager Malky Mackay, captain Mark Hudson and striker Craig Bellamy were among the club representatives due to fly to Kuala Lumpur on Thursday.

But the capital has been shrouded in smog, triggered by fires in Indonesia, and the trip has been called off on health and safety grounds.

The club are hoping to rearrange the trip for a later date.

Cardiff's Malaysian chairman Vincent Tan said: "It's with disappointment that the planned visit to Malaysia this week by Malky, David, Mark, Craig and other club delegates has been postponed.
 
It's quite strange for most of us. We've been such a fixture there, I've been clicking on the Championship forum to see how our opposition is getting on ready for the upcoming season - then I realise we aren't there. <laugh>

If I were you Thai, I'd keep looking at the Championship section to get used to it for yourself next season............<whistle>

Play nice now :grin:
 
Yeah, I agree Thai - just like Swansea, you're too good to go down.......<whistle>

Seriously though, the way positions 8th to 20th up there have gone recently, anyone outside the top 6 or 7 could be casualties. It was very nearly Villa last year, and there could be a surprise with a "big boy" suffering the dreaded fate this time around.

Obviously the new kids on the block like us are first in line for the firing squad, but no one outside the "exclusive club set" are guaranteed safe. <ok>
 
Going to be a lot quieter on the Championship Board this season. Only teams with regular posters are Charlton, Ipswich, Leeds, Leicester, QPR, Millwall and Watford.

I'm sure they will find plenty to argue about between them but discussions will be very narrow with little involvement from the fans of 17 other clubs.

Correct! I dare it may well be squeaky bum time again come April (have you seen out last 4 games! <yikes>) but reasonably confident of 15th or better <ok>
