Super Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Hull is the big game for them. If they need to beat Reading to go up it's all over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He promoted Notts County to div 1. Since then they’ve dropped to League 2. Huddersfield, since then dropped to League 2, although they’ve recovered now. Sheff Utd.

Cardiff play to their strengths and take their chances especially from set pieces. I have nothing against Cardiff as I've never seen them as a rival. There is no 'derby' against them, FFS they're from a different country (not that Wales is a country). I hope they do get promoted. Fulham are, no doubt, a superior footballing side but that's not what counts in the final analysis. Points on the board is all that matters. I like Colin he's a shrewd operator (isn't that a song?) I suspect they may struggle in the Prem but I doubt Cardiff fans will mind. One year in the 'promised land' sets you up for a fair few seasons in the Championship should it go tits up. Go Cardiff, I hope you get there. Smooth Operator, by SADE. But, then, you probably knew that, didn't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gert Mare Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Still bottling it I see. As much as I detest Cardiff and know all too well of our history between City and Warnock I would gladly trade places and managers today. All of those vocal fans going on about him being ‘short term’ and ‘rubbish’ and ‘too old’ whilst raving about our long-term up and coming manager may very well need to take a long hard look at themselves and the knowledge they think they have about football. The title of this thread is as embarrassing as those comments, certainly when you consider where we have gone since Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the vision was to make more money and keep on making it. There's more than one way to do that. He can get us into the premier league and we'll get plenty of cash in early (a money man should know about that). He doesn't have to stay for the long term, it'll just be a means to an end. Premier League money doesn't just have to be wasted on journeymen, it can be invested in things that will attract young talent. A trip to the Premier League will take us a level. Sadly, I don't think waiting forever for a fairytale will see us progress at a sufficient rate. We may see some progress, but it's all about the rate of progression compared to other teams it we want to move up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord raglan Posted April 29, 2018 Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 Lads still not counting my chickens yet , footballs a funny old game .If it does go tits up on Sunday we will at least have the chance via the playoffs. yes we massively over achieved this year wasn’t expecting it . I know it’s no consolation but I think you have had quite a good season , in the words of Russel Crowe in gladiator ....are you not entertained. Did the cup run , rip up your season or was it something else. #inwarnockwetrust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted April 29, 2018 Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 For all the talk about Warnock’s style of football, I’m struggling to imagine Cardiff have been any worse to watch than us for the last 4 months. Anyway I’ve watched City for 30 years and seen plenty of entertaining and attractive football. None of it has ever delivered the ultimate prize. I’d happily trade entertainment temporarily for some tangible success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E.G.Red Posted April 29, 2018 Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 To quote Colin from today's Mail on Sunday "We are not everyone's cup of tea but we are not going away" He also said "It's great being the manager of this lot" Do you think promotion (or not) he will be there next season, or could you see Chris Coleman in charge?

Hull have failed to score in their last 3 home games but have scored 10 in their last two away. Weird, eh? Really disappointed Abel Hernandez wasn’t involved, obvious that he is off in the summer but he has 8 goals in his only 8 starts this season and would have given them more to worry about.
