    This happens a lot in games mind. One side with something to defend, the other going for broke. Momentum just swings. I can’t remember them really troubling us in that period.

    We'll have to agree to disagree here. I thought Brizzle were poor at the back and we could have gone on to get a 2nd. Oh, for a Michael Chopra!!

    It was competent at very best and I’m being charitable. That said we have improved over three games albeit against dreadful opponents.
    I thought it was like a mirror image of so many of our 1-0 home defeats over the last four seasons - the away side don’t look anything special, but at the same time, we really struggle to break them down. The best thing I’d say about our performances today was that I only started getting a bit twitchy in the last ten minutes or so, we were pretty comfortable apart from that short period. A lot of that might have been downto Bristol’s shortcomings, but we win too many of our away games in a similar way for them all to be put down to the home team being crap.

    Statistics would say otherwise regarding your last sentence, unless we put prolific Perry Ng up top!

    You don't see many teams in similar situations in the Championship, apart from those with far more quality, going gung ho for a second goal. This is especially the case when the opposition are chasing the game late on. They "cheat" by flooding players forward.
    It would be suicide to not try and match them getting men goal side.

    Wow this board really is unbelieveable at times. I watched the game without checking the board. I felt comfortable from the first minute and felt we were going to win then logged on half time and saw a load of negativity!

    3 local derbies played and 3 wins.

    1 goal conceded in 3 games. 7 points from last 3.

    In the top half. Above the likes of Middlesbrough and Watford

    Bulut out!!!

    It's interesting that, as things stand, there are 10 points separating 22nd and 10th. On Jan 1st there were 10 points separating 22nd and 15th.

    There were 4 points between 11th and 6th on Jan 1st. That's now 9 points.

    Have any of City, Wurzels or Jacks done the double double over the other 2 in the same season?

    I seem to recall the Wurzels doing it.

    Well whilst we were in free fall the manager has turned it round and the moaners are conspicuous by their absence!

    Have to say the subs today were spot on.

    Today was a big win. Watford, 1 place below us are 6 points off the bottom 3. We don't have any chance of the playoffs but 7 points from 9 games, when we didn't look like beating a paper bag, has surely meant survival. Prepare for Swansea, then let the kids get game time until the end of the season. Still don't like how defensive we are, but when it works, great. When it doesn't, it rightly gets criticised.

    Thought that was a solid, assured performance. We were rarely troubled and looked the most likely to score imo despite the stats showing shots, corners etc in their favour.

    We've got 7 points from 3 games we should be getting points from. We haven't done anything special but winning breeds confidence.

    I think he's earned a go to try and create his own side next season

    It's been very squeaky bum recently though

    Not good for the heart

    Cardiff boss Erol Bulut praises influence of Liverpool loanee Nat Phillips

    The Liverpool man was in imperious form in the Bluebirds' victory at Bristol City and has proved a key player since arriving from Anfield in January

    The 3 new signings were the spine of the team today. Many were disappointed by January but those 3 will prove to be very good signings.

    Indeed they were.....an not much has been made of Horvath's save prior to the disallowed goal....top save....he IS inspiring confidence, and it's not a co-incidence that only one goal against in the last three games.

    Agree, Phillips as looked decent from the off but the keeper has really improved game on game. Turnbulls corner was excellent, he needs to go more but I think that will come with confidence.

    We now have more wins this season than all last season, with 11 games to go. 1 more win (or 3 draws) and we'll have more points.
