I think Cardiff City will be promoted , but it won't be pretty or done in the way that some here erroneously think football works. It will be done by grinding out results with agricultural football not trying to play like Real Madrid.
More than half the teams in the league play prettier football than us, and Fulham are the archetypal PSG Tribute Act. Therefore if we can beat them, which we certainly can, that'll be a powerful psychological statement.
We must be strong in defence and exploit the fact that they are STILL weak in defence. Their football purism didn't work as well as our brutal commitment last year in the Premiership and I see no reason why that would be reversed in the Championship. In fact, I think it will only produce a few spectacular moments, a big financial black hole and maybe a play off place.
I'm sure that Sir Neil has noted the strategic importance of this game and will be well prepared for it
