ok.....am a Blackburn fan this afternoon...you think OUR commentators are bad sometimes but bloody hell...these Swansea ones....I shall press the mute button....
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!!!
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.
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.
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.
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.
