Cardiff City 2 Nottingham Forest 1 - NEW DAWN!


The new dawn has begun with a pleasing grubby win against a Forest team unbeaten and flying high in the table.

It seems there’ll be no more f**king about as new coach Russell Slade means business. With training sessions doubled in the week, and suggesting he will demand blood from the players, things are certainly changing at Cardiff City.

Although many fans turned their nose up at his appointment (including this blog!) questioning his CV, Russ has made a solid start. 

There's a long way to go of course but this opening performance was full of his buzzwords: ‘Character’, ‘Togetherness’ and ‘Desire’. City fans need this medicine after putting up with almost a year of the previous regimes hair-fairy prima-donna ego s**t. 



The ante had even shot up in the technical area with Russ prowling his zone with authority barking orders and hairdryering the officials, opposition and even his own players at every opportunity. 

After an age of Solskjaer sitting detached in the home dugout emotionless day-dreaming, this was a welcomed site. 

We even got to hear Russ call the lino a ‘F**king bottler’ which was a personal highlight of mine.


The work continues as City face another ruck against Ipswich tomorrow night and then Millwall away on Saturday.
