    Boro, Hull, Norwich, Ipswich, Leeds

    Quite an achievement doing the double over clubs furthest away.

    Agree totally. Except Leeds. We always beat them anyway. Honestly, if any team were to be promoted alongside us I would want it to be them as we'd have 13% of the points we need for survival in the bag before a ball was kicked.

    Just had a quick check. Since beating them in the FA cup and being single-handedly responsible for their fall from grace, we have had 10 league seasons against them.

    We've done the double over them 6 times. They've done the double over us once, but we had Russell Slade as our manager so that doesn't count. We had two seasons with two draws, and last season where we won one each.

    Goals for Cardiff: 31
    Goals for Leeds: 13

    Points for Cardiff: 41 (average 2.3 per game= 106 point season = promoted in Feb)
    Points for Leeds: 11 (average 1.1 per game = cannon fodder)

    They are our bitches. Even Bristol City probably fare better against us than that shower of shite in white.

    We've got a long. long way to go before we make up for the pain the wurzels inflicted on us from 1971 to 2003.

    Lucky enough to have been at all of them.

    Every one a memorable day, in what has been a memorable season win or lose next Sunday, we really can't complain about the efforts put in by our squad and manager and coaches.

    I really hope though that yesterday was the last away this season,

    I'm knackered and need a holiday over Whitsun !

    End of the season I'll have a count up.

    There's a few that have done them all I think. That must be something

    I think Neil Warnock would say that flying to all of those long distance away matches has been a big factor in our good results in them - he was saying we had won all of the matches we've flown to before the game at Hull.
