Usual plan..Keep the ball,take our chances & no fuck ups at the back. I say a draw then.

If football was that simple and predictable we'd all be watching cricket. I don't subscribe to your 80% stats prediction. More like 65-35 IMO.
As the match draws ever closer I've tried to recall the times I've watched us play Man City.
First time was a 3-1 FA Cup defeat in 1982, I think we brought up about 6,000......it would have been more if half the football special commuters hadn't be thrown off at Hereford for the paltry crime of not having a ticket.
The second time sticks firmly in my memory in 1994. Nathan Blake's last game for us, but what a goal that was.
To more recent times, August 2013, 3-2 Cardiff win and what a great last 20 minutes.
Will we win today? Possibly not, but I pray your team go into the game with your attitude. If they do we have a fighting chance. To all who are coming down, enjoy the day and feel free to mix with us. We are the best sheepshaggers in Wales.....fact. :-)

If we play full strength we'll have near 80% possession and frankly put both Cardiff and their crowd to sleep quite quickly.
A straightforward win should follow; hopefully with injuries or discipline dramas.
Who are you hoping will get injured?
Don't think they'll try to kick the shit out of us. They'll be aggressive though.
I was told they average fewer long balls a game than Bristol City, but then again it's not everyday you play a side that's going to have over 65% possession against you.

It was 1967 I went from gorton with Clarabelle coaches. It was 1-1 at Cardiff and City won replay 3-1 I was there.
I went with Finglands and my girlfriend of the time finished with me because she said I thought more about City than her. How right she was.

Feel like this is the game where Stones starts to regain some of his form. Comfortable win.
