Correct and just like last season Kelly was out the first games and our improvement was when Kelly came back.Always worth bearing in mind that we started slowly in our League 2 and first League 1 season under Robins. This is a much more unforgiving league but there have been very encouraging signs that we’ve found our feet defensively in the last two game which will be crucial if we’re to stay up.

I doubt they will be around the play offs their similar to Brum poor sideA fantastic result for us tonight. Cardiff will probably be in and around the playoffs at the end of the season.
Fair play to Robins mixing it up and showing his flexibility as a manager (again). The midfield dominated the game and we won a lot of balls in the middle third, and seemed to win most second balls. Kelly was particularly brilliant defensively. Giles on the wing was a really sound choice, he’s got pace and he’s a threat - just needs to make more of his chances. The defence was solid as a unit today with Dabo and McCallum being quite effective in their roles. Finally, a shout out to Walker who has been a nuisance recently and got his reward tonight with a good finish - being critical, he should have finished his other clear cut chance.
Generally, it must be said that we have looked more solid defensively playing 4-5-1 than 5-3-2. As a newly promoted team, we’ve got to sort out the defence first.
As in they made the play offs.A great three points, these are tough games so hard to play against teams who’s basic tactic is long ball to their land of the giants, and remember these were up there challenging a lot of last season.

Kelly played every minute of our opening 6 games last season
I doubt they will be around the play offs their similar to Brum poor side
1 nil win. Walker to scoreWhat's your forecast for tonight's game Nostradamus
I don’t think Cardiff deserved a draw. Zero creativityFuckin’ hell folks...
great win today! Made all the sweeter by the fact I got to share it with my cardiff season ticket holding partner and her dad! Get the fuck in!
(This is the first time I’ve been able to express my joy! “Oh yes, I agree, a draw would’ve been a fair result”. Fuck off!)
PS
Apologies for the slightly rambled post.
Can’t believe just how poorly Derby are doing! 6 points adrift and 5 goals from 13 games
Anything at Norwich is a bonus but 3 points at Derby would give us an encouraging return from the last 5
I've sussed that out from the last two selections, just think we're not playing him to his strengths
Easily the best two games so far
Robins has managed to accept we need to scrap and fight and forget thus expansive nonsense
Why Kelly has been frozen out who actually knows but I would guess he starts must weeks now
War horses like Mcfazdean hamer sheaf and Shipley are essential as they can run and dig
Walker in the second half was superb
We are passing it around really well dont think we have sacrificed our brand of footy at all
I forgot that, if that lot made the play-offs theres still hope for us yet.As in they made the play offs.
Reading and qpr were top. Cardiff playoffs last yearWe looked a lot more fluent than against Brum, mind you last ten minutes we looked like a non league side hanging on for a lucrative FA Cup replay.
I just worry that we’ve played two awful teams and didn’t look like beating one if we played all night and only beat the other thanks to a defensive cock up.
Proof of the pudding will be Norwich.
Didn’t look like beating them ? We could have scored four in the first ten minutes of the second half. Looks like we have got our defence right just the other end now, need Godden back asapWe looked a lot more fluent than against Brum, mind you last ten minutes we looked like a non league side hanging on for a lucrative FA Cup replay.

It’s taken about 10 games odd but the players are now adjusting to this league. The clean sheet and defending gives us a chance to win games now. We lose Sam against Norwich so let’s see what formation Robins picks as Giles isn’t a LB.
