I can’t think of a time when I have, but I won’t be too bothered if Rotherham beat us if it means Derby go down. It’s a bit like that controversial game with Orient all those years ago, when, having secured our safety on the Monday, we didn’t exactly bust a gut against opponents who needed to win to survive and send Blackpool down.We were dreadful that night, but it didn’t bother me too much because Blackpool were usually a strong team normally and we always lost up there at that time.
I don't think Big Mick has the same mind set as you Paul.Quote:

Only when I've bet on City to lose
Learnt my lesson. Never ever bet on your own team, win lose or draw
A City win Saturday for me, as always and finish the season on a high.
If Derby win they stay up so i don't think it matters about our result anyway. I'd much prefer Sheff Wed to beat them though and stay up on goal difference sending Derby down. Wednesday have had a bit of fight in them.
Not too bothered about Rotherham, they deserve to go down anyway. With all those games in hand they still couldn't get any results, so fek em. :hehe:

I may not feel as crestfallen as I used to in my younger days following a defeat but I still get great pleasure from us winning any game. In an ideal world I would like to see Derby relegated but let the other teams make that happen. Just leave us out of it !
Yes 12:30 Saturday .
On many levels Derby have got away with murder over the last few years via financial matters , to that ridiculous snow affair ,it was so blatant .
Yes, there were definitely Cardiff fans celebrating Leeds relegation inside Ninian Park that afternoon.Quote:

I'd like us to try to do our best to win the game, which I'm sure we will set up to do, not because I have any fondness of derby but if the shoe was on the other foot I'd want them to be professional.
If rotherham then beat us they will have earnt their chance (obviously dependent on other result).
Vaulks isn't playing but I wonder how people like Moore feel having played for Rotherham.
Also whether Paterson or Harris will have been in contact with any mates.
I'm going for 2 bore draws.

Not really but I wasn’t too bothered when Watford scored a last minute goal a few weeks ago to win, I bet a few Tv remotes hit the wall in jackland that day.....:hehe:
If we'd drawn against Watford and beaten Stoke (21st in the league over most recent 10 games) then we'd be on 58 points before the Swansea game and just 3 points off play-offs. If we still beat Swansea we'd be on 61 points and just 1 point outside play-offs going into international window.Quote:

Ideally Sheff beat Derby and we win.
However with nothing on it for us my ideal weekend is Derby relegated.

I don’t watch line of duty I thought you were being a bit of a delmbox on the grammar front. So my apologies to you.
Never, but I would be quite pleased if Derby went down purely for them calling the game off with us after a light dusting of 'snow'.Quote:

I don't think they will though.
Sang is out injured.Quote:

Can't see it though. Snow dodgers to survive.
Only once in the 1994 Welsh cup final. Being Barry born and bred I found myself hoping Barry Town would hang on when they went 2-1 up which they did. Strange feeling though and the one and only time.
I didn't really want Cardiff to stay up after the rebrand but I was conflicted to say the least. I didn't actively want Cardiff to lose but I wasn't disappointed when they lost. Only as I thought the longer they stay up, the less likely a return to blue would be.
I was not exactly heartbroken when we sent Leeds down losing to Hull. In fact, I remember Alexander was out and there was a poll on who we wanted in net, and Thommo won :hehe:

Yeah, I can remember thinking that they’d come straight back up, but, if I remember rightly, Blackpool suffered another relegation to Division 4 quite soon afterwards.Quote:

I'm sure I can remember some posters on here wanting us to lose so that Dave Jones got sacked, when he had a bad spell and was under some pressure at one point.
I never want us to lose. But if we lost and Derby lost, I'd be OK with it.
If there is a God surely Derby will be relegated?!
When I saw the title of this thread I immediately thought of that Orient game. We were so dreadful I didn’t want us to equalise.
We are Cardiff.Quote:

Indeed. And with the team still wearing that fag packet dragon badge. Not that I am a fan of the Malaysian ragworm on the current version, of course.Quote:

I wonder if Warnock was still in charge what team he would have put out today considering how seething he was after snow Gate.
Probably not a bunch of snowflakes.Quote:
