FT: Cardiff City 1 - 2 Burton Albion. Match thread

[William Treseder]

I'm with NYCBlue on this. If anyone thinks playing a weakened side against a very average Burton team, and going out of the competition with a wimper, will help our outside promotion hopes, then they are in cloud cuckoo land..

What about the 2012/13 season?

It will help our league promotion hopes because Zohore, Gunnersson, Ralls etc will be well rested for the QPR game, Bogle, Ward, Tomlin and Connelly got matches under their belts. We didnt go out with a wimper either - should have won, with a number of chances created. Also why do you say 'outside' in your post, not the most optimistic 'fan' are you. Look at the league table, the way we have been playing and what most of the pundits are saying now and you will see that not everyone shares your view. According to Mr. Warnock we are all in 'cloud cuckoo land' anyway and rightly so, taking account of what we have witnessed so far and there's nothing wrong with that.
