    Nice to see you back.
    Depending on who you ask, we're crap, doing okay, need a new manager, should stick with the current manager, the admin at the club are crap, the admin at the club are doing okay, we'll make the playoffs, or struggle to avoid relegation.

    Just a typical season! ;-)

    Can see what you've done there, liking your work ;)

    As long as he can fit into a rigid 442, he'll do fine - and has GOT to be better than Federico Macheda and Adam Le Fondre

    I like Revell. He'd be ideal for us. Bit of a comedown for Cardiff though. Good backup maybe for Jones?

    Could replace Jones tbh, he only plays when he feels like it. Could/should be ripping this division apart but hasn't got the appetite. Russell Slade has no idea what to do & how to use better quality players imo, so Revell would probably suit him down to the ground

    Revell scored that beauty against his Slade's former side at Wembley, I hope that's not his reasoning.

    Please take him. Pretty please.

    Can remember seeing his name in the papers scoring every week, including in the Premiership for Reading. Think we've signed his brother Alan tbh. Absolutely woeful finisher.

    Maybe? Sure I've read that he's played a few games under Slade somewhere as well. Not one that sets the pulse racing I'll be honest :D

    I'm sure we'll find enough facts and figures, however tenuous, to link him but the fatal flaw will be wages. I think you'll be stuck with him for a little longer.

    well as for me

    Recently I have attended two Cardiff games... went to watch the Leeds United game. Cardiff were not too good first half... but came out and totally outclassed Leeds second half.. good game for me the neutral and for my son in law a local lad from Barry. We also went on the 28th against Watford. Sorry but they totally played you off the park. From a neutral it was a good game to watch, from a partisans view it was bad... Feel sorry for Slade he .. like Solksjaer is on a hiding to nothing. Tan needs to **** off and soonest. But anyway Bluebird , I hope you had a great Xmas and new year (football aside) when me and my S.O.L went to the Watford game I did wonder where you spent your pre-match . Maybe when we next attend we might meet and have a jar perhaps.

    Re: well as for me

    The L**ds game is the best we've played all season lol - and that was poor. Watford, like most teams this year, outplayed us. Slade is out of his depth as far as I'm concerned. The last few games have been painful to watch - so much so that for the first time ever (40+ years) I simply couldn't be bothered to go to a game (Colchester on Friday night). Lots of things happening behind the scenes and I'm going to a meeting with club officials on Thursday amid rumours of a return to Blue - although I'm not counting chickens. But the club were clearly shocked by the poor attendance and are fully aware of the No Blue No Renew campaign. Tan has reneged on his debt to equity promise that pushed the rebrand through and the natives have turned.
    We've tended to drink locally before games for the.last 18 months and come in on a bus from there - but let me know when you're around & we can have a pint & a moan lol

    HNY to you and yours as well Kev & trust all's well with yours.
    My granddaughter (2 next month) is the latest in my house to wrap me around their little fingers & has me running around all day after her lol. We've another on the way as well so all good on that front.
    About to move house at the moment, so hectic here!
    Only thing going wrong is my bloody football club tbh :D

    Laura's in her second year at uni, studying Forensic Science. I'm at my second uni, now specialising in Ancient Archaeology. Crystal's loving her job as a carer (no, not for me you rotten sod!:D).
    Your Granddaughter's two years old?? Flipping heck!

    Tell me about it!
    Looks like it's all going well with you & yours, really pleased. We're you kicked out of your first uni ;)
    What type of carer is Crystal (other than yours)? I'm working for a company with care homes all over the country
