Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 4 - 0 PRESTON N.E. Match thread
MM talked about bringing smiles back to players' and fans' faces when he joined and think it's fair to say he's done that. Some really excellent goals and knocking it around with high confidence.
A note of caution though, I still don't think we've played anyone all that since he's arrived and the run of games between now and Sheffield Wednesday on 5th of April are going to be tougher. With Derby and Forest are both at least top ten clubs over the past ten, eight and six games, and despite Derby having dropped out of top ten over past four games, Huddersfield appear to be the sole outlier at the moment. This period of time will tell us a lot more about who we are under MM.

Fantastic performance. Wish I was back in the canton stand!
No one wants to play us.

Barnsley can go above us if they win their game in hand. So that was a good result against a good team.
Preston have a very good away record and were taken apart today.

If we beat Bournemouth we will go 6th
Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 4 - 0 PRESTON N.E. Match thread
No doubt you are serious play off contenders. In just three weeks you’ve gone from talking about relegation to now rapidly closing in on the top six. Unfortunately for us 5th and 6th are up for grabs. We were well beaten by Boro and caused them very few problems.
No excuses. Only three players out injured. For the first time this season I am now doubting us making the play offs.

I love how the players who have started because of injuries have played so well, it would be unfair to drop them. Murphy especially, also Phillips, even Pack has been solid. Add to that the youngsters who have pushed on, we have true depth in the squad.
Re: FT: CARDIFF CITY 4 - 0 PRESTON N.E. Match thread
We seem to have added to the squad with 'new' signings who we had more or less given up on. Enjoyed today and missed the atmosphere that performance would have created.
