To be honest mate, the way we played in the last few matches up to the Wigan game I wouldnt fancy our chances against any of them.

Hope to see you in the final

Although if we do get there (fingers crossed!) and meet you I fear I may need to wear a crash helmet

Just about recovered from last night

Booked my train tickets this morning and pick up my match ticket tomorrow, can't wait

Have had a few good nights in Cardiff the last couple of years whilst attending the Network Q, don't think we'll be quite as welcome on the 25th though

Should be a good game as both sides like to play football and I'm looking forward to seeing inside the stadium for the first time, looks impressive from the outside.

COME ON YOU R's

Hope Cardiff don`t win. Keep the nutters that support them in as low a division as possible.

Not tarring all their supporters with that brush btw, just the knackers that like the bother.

Agree with wal on that one.

A few, but enough of their fans are stuck in the 70s hooligan time warp and need to be put down like the scum they are. They spoil the good club's name.

Get rid of that element and there's a sound base for Cardiff to do ok.

Not generalising at all. I think every club has its idiot element, but the media has picked up on Cardiff as much, if not more than any other club.

Sorry if I`ve offended anyone, but this is the way a section of Cardiff`s supporters are portrayed, but they shouldn`t really be classed as "supporters" IMO.

Yeah, I agree with m18ouse, all clubs have their idiots and to be honest, Cardiff seem to have got rid of MOST of theirs in the past two years. Only genuine fans seem to remain.

no need for apologiesYou haven't offended me for certain.

All
I'm fully aware of the reputation the club has gained through a minority of the "fan" base.....the same as any other club has to a degree
This thread was started to debate the out come of the 2nd division play offs so,please,no more abuse

come on city!!!!!!!!

Oi m18use, what do you mean 'when Cardiff go up', they have to play us first

Well said DAR.WIL

I really hope the morons don't spoil it for the rest of us. Although having looked at some Rangers forums yesterday there were quite a few Cardiff ' fans' posting threats

I'm really looking forward to the game and the day out , I'm hoping for rain so they shut the roof, I've heard it's a lot loader with it shut

COME ON YOU R'S

I agree, the atmosphere Sunday is going to be great
I think both sets of fans are going to make a hell of a lot more noise than the two sets at last weeks cup final

Truth is we are both too big for division 2 shame it's only one of us who's going to be going up (fingers crossed it's us )

Come on you R's!

Absolutely gutted

Very tight game, you are right it could have gone either way.
We propably had one or two more chances but I thought we were a bit weak up front, we missed Langley in midfield meaning Kevin Gallen had to drop back to fill his place.

Have to say though, apart from the result we had a fantastic day, what a great stadium Lets hope the new Wembley is as good! Also had far too much beer in the Weatherspoons pub across the road before the game, the place was rocking!

Also thought us Rangers fans held our own in the noise stakes and we certainly added a spash of coulour to the North side of the stadium

So this year was not to be, hopefully we'll get atomatic promotion next year.....

Good Luck in Division one, just think, you get to play West Ham and we get to play Wrexham and Hartlepool.......

All the best

Andy
