Salech, Mannsverk, and Alves in with Simic & Conte returning from loans.

Siopis, Etete, T Davies, Kanga, Reindorf, & Tsunoda out.

Don't think we'll miss any of the outgoings but did we get enough players in? No championship experience with them but one was at Ajax.

Have gone through phases over the last few years of feeling so let down by the club that I’ve just become indifferent to the team despite still going most weeks. But yesterday’s result just doesn’t feel like that, Leeds were by far the better team, and you’d expect that given the money they’ve spent.

I still feel hugely optimistic for this squad and the style we’re building under Omer, I’m excited to watch us against Stoke next week, and I’m excited to see how we do for the rest of the season. A result like that to end an unbeaten streak feels like it should be a fatal blow to confidence but I’m just not that bothered.

Any truth in the rumour he’s going back to Panathanikos?

Does anyone know what’s happening with him I thought he was leaving this window, is he injured?

With it sounding like sivert mannsverk is imminent so covering us in centre mid. What areas do you think we need to cover ourselves for the rest of the season? I’d like to see a left back and winger come in… Pace is critical

I really don't understand who they think they are having meeting with our board on behalf of fans. I haven't voted for them, I dont want them speak on my behalf and I certainly don't want them pushing their Agenda. I find really disgusting.

Don't get me wrong thing do need to change at Cardiff but they really feel like they are. So the thought of them meeting our board terrifies me.

Morning bluebirds, hope you’re all having a good Sunday. You’ve probably seen a similar poll on your other subs but we’re just trying to get a view of people’s feelings.

We don’t tend to see a lot of twitter content outside of transfer windows that we couldn’t get elsewhere just as easily.

I’ve left the poll open for a week. <o>\o/<o>

Sadly I wasn't aware of the storm until I'd bought the tickets and now pretty much all of the trains back have been preemptively cancelled.

It's in the canton end, I did choose the paper ticket option but on the confirmation email there's an option to add it to a wallet so hopefully that'll work.

Ideally there'd be a donation to charity in exchange but I just don't want the ticket to go to waste. (especially for such an important game)

I know he didn’t score. I knows he didn’t assist. But he’s ours until the end of the season, let’s enjoy him while we can

Just wondering what players you've had on the back of your shirts if any. I've only had one, when I was around 13 and for some reason I picked Ben Turner. He was my favourite player for a while. if I had to choose again it wouldn't have been him! Wish I could find that shirt though

You're welcome

If he carries on this level of form he's going to easily leapfrog Colwill into Bellamy's WC qualifying squads. Not doubting Colwill's talent, but the lad needs to start finding some end product and quality when it matters. Ashford is much more of a Bellamy type of player in terms of what he's looking for in his Wales team. He's quick, plays with intensity on/off the ball and works hard constantly. Looks like the lad can finish as well.

Stoke? Away? lol

What a monster Daland was last night. Hoping this is him really settling into this level and type of football.

Thought Will Fish looked solid too given his lack of minutes.

With Chambers moving into this defensive midfield type role Riza should be looking to rotate Fish into the XI more often, Goutas has been the strongest out of them all for awhile now and in recent games we’ve definitely been more resolute at the back. Some decent options there.
