With Newcastle losing at Forest last night Brighton will go top if they win today.
They will be well up for it then. Massive game for us then. I would be over the moon with 3 points today, but guess I would ke a draw before he game. We beat them convincingly last year when they were near the top. Fingers x we can do the same today.

Remember the Duffy factor let's hope he helps us out again
I'm missing the game to go to a wedding,the last time that happened was when I got married and we drew 2-2 with Leicester back in 1970, I'd take that score today

Toshack scored 2 that day and had a blinder. The Sunday people gave him a 10 in their ratings. First ever I believe.
Match of the day game as well.
Theee changes:
Amos, Bennett, Connolly, Morrison, Bamba, Ralls, Whittingham, Gunnarsson, Hoilett, Harris & Gounongbe
No Lambert in Squad. Fred starts.
Harris in for Pilks. Connolly for the suspended Peltier
"Right!", said Fred.Originally Posted by Michael Morris
[QUOTE=Cleve van Leef;4698488]Let's hope that Fred can emulate Toshack's display, I doubt it somehow
Kinell, how bad must Chamakh be for Colin to start Gogowhatshisface?
What's up with Kieran Richardson?
Listening to the radio commentary, this sounds like an incredibly dreary game.
It does, although Hoilett and Harris seem to be getting some joy before the moves break down.
In the first 15 minutes Cardiff were well up on possession (per BBC). At half time it was down to 31%.
All set up for Nooney to win it on the break in the 93rd minute? No, maybe not.
Hey, if you say that's how it's going to go down then I'm four-square behind you.
A point earned imo
Yes a good point if a poor game (from the internet commentary).
It could all have been so different if Noone had come on instead of Richardson!
Only 6 points from 12th place!
I'm only posting here to not get told off by Croesy.
Where is Croesy? Surely his 4G is all fired up down at the stadium. I'm on tender hooks waiting for his team scores.
Lack of quality from either team, if you were a neutral you wouldn't know who who was 2nd and who was 23rd in the league.
Point earned and finally a well earned clean sheet.
Very Good point and first clean sheet in 18 games.
Clean Sheet something to build on.....Ipswich here we come.
Elsewhere:
3 red cards at Wednesday v Preston (2 - 1) - Eoin Doyle comes on as sub, scores and is sent off.
Tom Adeyemi scores for Rotherham in the final minutes as they lose again at Burton.
Barnsley were supposed to be dropping into trouble (before our meeting at the CCS on 17th) but end up thrashing Birmingham (0 - 3) at St Andrews.
Norwich and Fulham both run out 5 - 0 winners (Brentford are coming our way in the table!)
In fact action, controversy, excitement and incident everywhere - except at the Cardiff City Stadium.
I think that the selection of Harris was a tactical masterstroke by NW. Kadeem is a bit of an unknown quantity for opposition teams and I'm sure his selection surprised Brighton; their full backs rarely got forward all game.
This was a superb performance from City, in my opinion, nullifying a team in form and creating a few chances ourselves. Bamba was excellent and the commitment from all players was total
