Are Cardiff more of a threat to us than Brum?

[Archie's penalty]

What with their comfortable victory tonight are Cardiff more of a threat to us than Brum?

[Archie's penalty]

Of course I meant to us not Brum in the title of the thread. Can a mod change it?

[SLAMMED]

No.

If only there was some way of editing posts.

In answer to the (intended) question, no.

You'll have to excuse me I'm knackered.

I think that Cardiff are more of a threat to Brum than us --but less of a threat to Brum than we.

Er, I think. Anyway, I didn't see this thread before I posted here. Let me re-post the relevant portion of it, er, here:

On a secondary note, supposing we did overhaul [Wolves], who would we want to go up with us? Funnily enough, despite their crap fans, I might prefer them to Brum, but it would be quite funny if neither of them made it and somebody else crept in.

In my life away from HNA? and in the conversations that do crop up in it from time to time, of late I've been sweating Cardiff, who are now fourth on 48 points after winning away to Coventry this evening and have a match in hand at home to Derby in three weeks that one would expect them to win.

I think it reasonable to say that with plenty of time and points on offer (51) remaining, they've made a quadrangular affair out of the fight at the top and, assuming that they do claim three points from that Derby match, could be said to be on a provisional 51 points that would put them 4 in front of their nearest pursuers, 4 back of Brum in third, 6 back of RFC and 8 behind Wolves.

And I'm not surprised Bainserz was able to answer the question posed here in a single word. I'd wager he checked with <---that guy.

[Archie's penalty]

Well they pushed us hard in both games and are organised and pose a threat.

The Big three are becoming the big four...

[readingbedding]

No.

Cardiff vs Swansea in the playoffs.

I wouldn't say Cardiff are more of a threat than Brum. Brum have quality in abundance, and more strength in depth than us or Wolves, they just seem so patchy with it though.

Cardiff are strong, but they lack the depth needed IMO. We do too, but we can call upon players like Long who may not be the best, but they have been here before. Same with Gunnarsson and his versatility is like having 2-3 experienced players waiting to come in when needed. City don't really have that.

Play-offs for Cardiff.

Birmingham = 2 points behind us
Cardiff = 9 points behind us

I'd say Birmingham are still more of a threat than Cardiff at the moment. But it could change if we and Birmingham lose and Cardiff win.

I wish i was as clever as you

Much as it pains me to agree with Jay's analysis, Birmingham have a squad packed with quality, but haven't managed to gel yet. Cardiff have had a tremendous run of form, but I just don't see them kicking on - more likely is that at some point Birmingham will start playing as a team.

In any event, like everyone outside of the South Wales and Metropolitan police forces, I want to see a Cardiff Swansea play-off final.

despite Cardiff are on a good run of form at the moment a dont think they will touch us or brum playoffs for them!!

i still think that Brum are the team to watch and will be till the last few weeks of the season!!

Semi final would be even sweeter imho, second leg in Cardiff please.

Not forgetting the Cardiff game in hand

That would be the last competitive game at Ninnian Park aswell. Imagine Swansea winning that one

...and a bloodbath!

Swansea score a 95th minute controvesial winner, sparking riots across their dump of a country.

[Mr Optimist]

The biggest problem as far as I can see with a Cardiff v Swansea play off final would be that there would the Premier League would be guaranteed to have at least one bunch of South Wales oxfords in it next season.
