I’m only interested in the Cardiff home game, out of the three rearranged games. Spurs and Chelsea are home flat-track bullies so should win comfortablly, any points from those an unexpected bonus.

Praying that we beat :wanker: Warnock’s Cardiff and their gamesmanship. Even if we don’t need the points then, can’t stand the bloke and his brand of football.

I bought 4 tickets for original Cardiff date - me and 3 friends/relatives. I can go the new date - but the other 3 can't... so I've got to sort a refund somehow.

Haven't seen anything about how to do that as yet??

City could let us win the S/F knowing if they do we will probably play a weakened team on 12th thus handing them the EPL title!

Then again......

It always was I suppose, but if we lose to Saints it will be a difficult decision to play the reserves away at Chelsea. But that is what I would do regardless.

We have to give the Semi Final our best shot, and Chelsea away was never likely to give us more than a point at best anyway.


Not really as had we played and beaten Cardiff on the correct date a draw against Southampton would have done but now there is more importance on the Southampton game and a win IMHO.

Brighton / Hove actually
That's quite a heavy schedule but we have a fully fit squad and no suspensions so should be able to cope with playing the strongest selection available until the end of the season.

Six points asap is more important than beating Man City so the only player I definitely want to see walk out onto the Wembley pitch is Bruno and then the next best balanced available.

A win against Shampton and an inconsistent Chelsea will take all the pressure off for the semi and the rest of the season.

The real question is will Man City go weak on us with their schedule?

Even their 2nd string team should be good enough to get a result against us.

Agree but if they go into the game with the 2nd string of over confident players it can backfire. In reality though I am not expecting too much after our performance at Millwall but they say that a sign of a good team is winning when playing badly and we were bloody awful for 80mins, so we must be an excellent team going by this logic.
