Before this game my only concern was whether Smithies was up to it. It turns out that he's the only one who is.

I can't remember seeing such a shambolic approach from a Cardiff City tram since Sir Neil has been in charge , or so many players who either didn't know what they were supposed to be doing or simply couldn't do it - in some cases both.

There's a lot of work to be done !

I said it'd take them four games to gel, but I'd expected some progress by now .

There's a great manager and it's up to him now to try and do something about this situation. I still think they might get themselves together enough in a longer period to get into the playoffs, but as far as automatic promotion is concerned , I'm afraid we can forget that now.

Nothing lasts forever.
