This was a much more positive performance from us at last. Three points, a clean sheet again and we’re surely safe from relegation now.
BEFORE
As ever with the international breaks it seems an eternity since we last played a game. We managed to put an end to our run of defeats with the less than thrilling goalless draw with Q.P.R. so let’s hope we can get another point or more this afternoon to banish any lingering doubts about relegation. I hope Evans plays some part in the game as I think we’ve missed him a lot. He always put some strength into our midfield and too many times in his absence we’ve seen the opposition cutting through our midfield effortlessly. Cardiff are one place but five points above us and have won four out of their last five league games so we’ll have our hands full, especially if Aaron Ramsey is playing. I was hoping to watch the game in the company of other members of the London Branch but it’s looking like that’s not going to happen now so it’ll probably have to be SAFSEE for me. Match prediction 1-1.
