Anyway, will Rugby completely die in Wales next year, with Swansea and Cardiff in the Premier League?

Think about what you've just said.

Either way, the article is pointless. The top comment on it pretty much sums everything up. Cardiff have been living outside their means for years now. They were given a simple choice, accept the changes or go bust. They accepted it and now they're probably going to be playing Premier League football next season. Who exactly is losing out here?

To be fair, i don't see how you are saying "shit like Swansea and Stoke" they are in the Premier League for a reason, the same reason Huddersfield are not, you sound like a typical Leeds fan, they get promoted from League One for the first time in how ever many years, and then instantly believe they're going to the Prem the next year.

League One Promotion
Survive in Championship
Build on that over 2-3 years
Realistic chance of Prem football at this point.

19th - 21st is a realistic finishing position, for Huddersfield this season. I don't get why your so annoyed. Just to add you probably didn't really deserve to go up in the Play Off final anyway, but that's for another discussion, and yes, i support Sheffield United.

So fuck off, Town. I'm sick to the back teeth. Whenever there's something to be proud of you promptly kick every fan in the smiling teeth. You'll go down with a whimper and make us a fucking laughing stock. Half of you will fuck off to lesser fucking clubs like fucking Barnsley (Dean Gorre, your turncoat tendencies are not forgotten), and the other half of you will wallow in your own personal despair rather than man the fuck up and piss that fucking league like you should do.


Just to add, if you go down, and Barnsley stay up and 1 player goes to them then i wouldn't class them as a lesser club. Also Peterborough are above you, therefor they are the better team this season and not how you described them.

Lost 4-1 after leading 1-0 at half time. What the fuck? How can just let yourself go like we did in the second half? Seriously Ash Eastham and Ethan Ebanks-Landell can fuck off now. Another transfer embargo for us as well and no quality in our squad to build on a winning streak. We are so going down. And we DESERVE to do so!

I saw the second-half. Ashley Eastham shouldn't be a professional footballer.

After Kelly's goal on 55 minutes or so you could hear a pin drop in the away end. Everyone just knew we would fuck it up. Eastham clearly had a shocker and he had one against Coventry and against Sheff United, he's clearly not the player he was under Barker, when he was on loan here last season.

I've been defending Blackwell for quite a while now, but this defeat is down to his team selcetion. Until Zubar got injured we looked good in defence but after we had to sub him off we had nobody to replace him. Mark Hughes is at Accy Stan and Sodje at Barrow so we had no CB left and had to put Soares on as some sort of holding midfielder and had to drop Ebanks-Landell to CB position. Something that does not work AT ALL

0-0 with Leeds. Appleton has sorted us out in defence but that's meant we're lacking going forward - despite having Kaz, DJ, Rhodes, etc. Our midfield's poor so that doesn't help I guess.

Leeds had a couple of chances but their finishing was pretty poor, if the match was still going on now it'd probably still be 0-0.

Funny how Wolves captain Karl Henry is claiming they would have been 'at the other end of the table' had Dean Saunders been in charge from the very beginning of the season, instead of Solbakken - yet they are still looking for a win since Solbakken's departure January 5th.

A win? Away from home? At Swindon?

Brilliant result, didn't saw this one coming at all. Schuey with another goal tonight (10th of the season) and a very solid performance from our CB's aswell. Eastham and Landell looked like complete different human beings today.

Supporters coach back home is imploding already, massive respect to the other 94 Shakers who travelled too. Enjoyable four hour bus drive ahead

We've been desperately poor since the Arsenal game. 0 goals scored, feels like we've had 0 shots too.

I've splashed out on some Millwall tickets for the FA Cup quarter final, we better show more effort and intent in that game. Season over if we lose that 'cos there's 0% chance of the play-offs.

Good job BBC.

They want to change to Cardiff Dragons, which is the name of a team in the Gay League.

Good job BBC.

I think the owner u-turned over the course of yesterday.

So they had that article title and the article matched, then a sportsday entry from him saying it wouldn't change and then they changed the article to reflect it but not the title.

If you go on it now it makes sense.

The guy is a cock anyway.

Mariners away at Macclesfield tonight for the live Premier Sports TV match.

Tough game on paper, desperate for a win as I can't see Wrexham etc dropping points tomorrow.

Scrap that, Town team bus is stuck on the M62, haven't moved for 4 hours due to a pile up. Don't think the game will be on tonight.....

EDIT: Moving again but still over an hour away.... Could be a late finish!

Not too sure about that, they were doing pretty dire. That said, it wasn't worth getting rid of him with Saunders, who appears out of his depth, being the replacement...

He does have a point or two if you watch the whole video though. I remember when he was manager at FCK in Denmark, he was only a whisker away from getting sacked one year, but they stood by him and in his last year in charge they won the league by a 26 point margin, played two evenly matched games vs. Barca and progressed to the knockout stages of the Champions League.

I'm not quite sure Solbakken was the right man for Wolves in the first place and that converting to a more continental style of play the right step for Wolves as a club, however - sacking him at the start of the January transfer window makes you think that they never really believed in him nor the project as a whole. In the end I just think Solbakken and Wolves were a bad match at the time.

I think the Wolves board has just made some awful decisions - switching from very 'British' style to the Continental and only giving Solbakken 6 months and one transfer window. They seem to be attempting to revert back to McCarthy with Saunders.

Interesting subplot with Ipswich being there as well.
