It's one of those where it's definitely way to early for this group to be in the mix for playoffs, but the mid-table is always so tight that a good run of form can make it a possibility. No Cardiff fan would ever think going up would be good idea though, particularly looking at Sheffield United's experience this season. Good to see it's looking like more of a positive season though, Colwill seems to be doing well in recent weeks

Great Saturday afternoon - an Ipswich goal for Kieffer (and he being gracious enough not to celebrate over- effusively, and then the brilliant CCFC comeback in added time!
Hope Kieffer continues his scoring run when pulling on the red shirt next week.
...And that Cardiff make it to the play-offs!

A win on Saturday and a top half finish without the season fizzling out too much (i.e. seeing some decent performances), I think that'd be a great season.
Play like we did against Ipswich and the playoffs are certainly possible, but seems a stretch to be honest. I'd also rather another season in the Championship being competitive to be honest, but would be hard not to get excited if our form continues.

TODAY'S ENCOUNTER AT THE SWANSEA.COM....
11.30am - An hour to go before KO - are the team sheets out?
Are Rambo (Cardiff) and Joe (Swansea) both to be involved?

Most one sided derby I have seen in years. More one sided than the 4-0 a few years ago.

All three City U17 lads, Jac Thomas, Jake Davies and Ronan Kpakio did really well today, despite the 2-1 loss to Sweden.
I've seen Jac Thomas a few times now - always easy on the eye. Definitely a talent.
Kpakio came on for the last 30' - got the goal from a brilliant cross by Thomas.
Jake Davies has one seriously loooooong throw on him - better than Bale's or Roberts'

It's been rumbling on for a while, there was a court case in Cardiff against Willie McKay to get some documents off of him I think it's in pretty bad taste but anyone who thinks their club wouldn't do the same is delusional My understanding is that Cardiff feel/have evidence that Nantes operated through a banned agent who allegedly helped organise the flight that ended Sala's life. I think the club feel a bit aggrieved that Nantes have faced no consequences for it. |

That's a very difficult thing to prove, but it's probably fair to say that Cardiff City have shouldered much/all of the reputation and financial damage while feeling that they did little wrong. The club is confident in the evidence they have gathered that others should be shouldering more of the cost. It is a very sad case considering the loss of life and the family/dog left behind. |

It’s extremely sad yes……BUT only one side has ever been heard in public.CCFC seem confident so what club in the world would turn their nose up to £120 million and to get a chance to have their say ? It’s a no brainier |

Cardiff have just given pro deals to 12 of their youngsters, all of whom are Welsh as far as I can tell: www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/news/young-bluebirds-sign-contracts-cardiff-cityInterestingly they include two keepers, and that's after already re-signing Matthew Turner and retaining Jake Dennis. They've also just signed Ewan Griffiths from Swansea (https://www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/news/four-new-recruits-added-citys-u21s), meaning there are now 5 young Welsh pro keepers on their books. I can only imagine they've signed so many with a view to loaning a couple of them out. Surely at least one of them can kick on and solve Wales' goalkeeper issue?! |

I have it as: Dennis Kpakio Colwill (X2) King Ashford Davies I wonder where Turner (GK) is? Think he's older than Dennis so maybe getting ready for a loan? |

Suprised no Turner but as you say probably a loan. May do him good. No Luey Giles either? Thought he may get a run out after doing ok when called upon last season. |

Tom Davies and Kieron Evans are the others that have featured so far in preseason but not in the squad for the tour.
Evans is a strange one. Contract was expiring and looked certain to leave on a free, but then signed a last minute extension and played a fair bit in the first couple of preseason friendlies, and was even used prominently in the away kit promotional photos. But was then dropped to the U21s (even though he's 22) for the most recent friendly and now misses out on the preseason tour to Austria. No idea what the plan is with him, and doesn't look like the club do either.

The club gave Ryan Wintle a 3 year contract last season and have now told him he's free to leave I don't think there's a plan for anyone |

The manager is talking about getting in 3-4 new players!
Pretty sure Cardiff have two players plus for each position and one or two more injured in each position too already waiting to come back.
