High Noon showdown with Neil Warnock at CCS on Sunday. It might be a dead rubber for Cardiff depending on Reading v Wigan on Saturday.
It won't be a dead rubber. We'd love to help relegate the old fossil.

going to be an occasion.
Match Facts:
- Cardiff City have won eight of their last nine home league games against Huddersfield Town (D1) since losing 2-1 in September 2001.
- Huddersfield Town are looking to complete a league double over Cardiff for the first time since the 1969-70 campaign.
- Cardiff City have won two of their last 14 home league games (D5 L7), and are winless in four at the Cardiff City Stadium (D2 L2).
- After losing three of their first five league games under Neil Warnock this season (W1 D1), Huddersfield Town have lost just one of their last seven (W3 D3).
- Huddersfield boss Neil Warnock has only won two of his last 15 league meetings with Cardiff City (D7 L6) although he did win his last away game against his former club in October 2021 with Middlesbrough.
Got a strange feeling about this one based on our behaviours this season ,win one away, lose one at home .
Let us hope the alleged 25k turn up and support for 90 plus minutes
With o'Dowda out might we see Bagan or maybe another showing for Ralls at wing back? I also note that Adams played an hour for the reserves this week, it would be nice to see him make his debut at some point on Sunday given the terrible luck he's had this season.
If we are safe mathematically tomorrow and seeing as how hes said Bagan should get a contract then he really should play.
Who said ?
...as for today's games...am watching Reading v Wigan. Can't see Reading not winning given how they have played so far...looks pretty much full house also.
Stream for Reading Wigan if anyone is interested - CHANNEL168 – BigEvents (bigeventz.xyz)
So....Reading 0 Wigan 0 at half time. We are 45 minutes from mathematical safety.
Wigan coming back in the game...no clear cut chances either side. Wigan keeper look decent and decisive....
Phew that was tense. I wonder if that might effect selection. This will be the first game for Lamouchi (and is for a while!)where the pressure is off. It would be nice to see one or two academy players who have done well this year get a look in.
So you wanna risk a fine for playing a weakened side, against a team that could still possibly get relegated, wonderful tactics, not !!!!!!
Brighton made 6 changes today, I don't think they'll be getting fined. One or two academy players is not going to garner a fine, don't be so dramatic.
Weve played Thursday as well.
No O Dowda. Lets play Bagan , Colwill , Davies at least and maybe King as well.
Would be totally unsportsmanlike to do that, especially as Huddersfield are still in the mix for relegation.
I'd personally start Luthra and Bagan, and then the other three as subs.
That's not our problem. We need to plan for a summer without our 3 best players and what appears another embargo. Completely not our problem Huddersfield are in that situation, you worry about yourselves.

I expect one or two surprises tomorrow, although the manager will want to win. Simpson is likely to start as we have noone else on the left.
Perhaps Davies will start with Adam's on bench.
We will see.
City will win 2-1
Seems like bowl all but sold out. Very surprised Ninian L5 not opened. Does noone work a CCS over weekends to make decisions?
With our home form, I doubt the league could legitimately say that fielding our ‘full’ side wasn’t throwing the match.
"Smashed through the 26,000 mark" according to the supporter's liaison officer on Twitter with tickets still available online and for a walk up, so our 2nd biggest crowd of the season
Surely they'll have to open some of the red stand if tickets are available tomorrow? What does the main bowl hold, 27/28k?
Disappointing to see Bagan in the reserves today - if what Sabri has said about him is remotely true it’s hard to understand him not getting a look in over Simpson in a meaningless game. You could probably say the same for King and maybe Denham too.
At least there’s some chance he will involve Davies I guess, but hardly a ringing endorsement that he will give some of the youngsters a look in if he’s retained.
