To be fair they were robbed at home to Chelsea by the referee/ linesman. when 1-0 up with not long left in the game. 3 points there and they probably be favourites to stay up now.

....and they would already be relegated if their clear offside winning goal hadn't been allowed against us, down there.

Palace players don't give much of a crap about the rivalry with us - that was obvious from our games against them. Certainly not enough to chuck a game away. Man U look awful at the moment but Ole won't want to be losing to a team that sacked him, at Old Trafford on the last game of the season. Just hope they don't beat Palace otherwise the last day will be butt-clenching unless we beat Arsenal.

I really don't want the 'radio to ear' scenario awaiting news from Old Trafford - please let this be sorted this weekend!!!!

Cardiff beat Bournemouth 2-0 on 2nd Feb. They then lost their next 4 games.
Cardiff beat West Ham 2-0 on 9th March. They then lost their next 3 games.
Cardiff beat Brighton 2-0 on 16th April. They then lost their next 2 games.

So you know what's next folks..... a 2-0 home win v Palace...... but....... a defeat at Old Trafford.

If you'd been asked if Cardiff would beat Fulham and Palace, you would possibly have said they could. But now they've lost to Fulham, some think they'll win at Old Trafford ? ? ?

Man Utd look terrible since OGS was given a three year contract. They look as bad as they did under Jose.
 






The Fulham defeat was huge, just as it was for us. Can't see them coming back from that, just as our second half of the season didn't.

I hope it's over next weekend. Would be good to see us play without fear against City because I think we would do much better

Massively unscientific, but I'd give Cardiff a 10% chance of staying up at this moment in time. I've assumed Brighton lose both games for sake of ease and likelihood.

If they beat Palace on Saturday, they have a 25% chance of staying up.
If they draw with Palace on Saturday, they have a 5% chance.

Obviously anything else and it's all over for them.

You can back Cardiff to go down at 1.04 at Betfair, which equates to them having a 4.85% (100 - 96.15%) chance of staying up right now.

If they draw with Palace its over. No chance that the goal difference will be overturned. CH is getting some stick on here from some, but one thing he still has is setting up a side that is hard to breakdown.

No chance - if they don't beat Palace they're down. If we lose both our games 5-0 they'd still need to beat United by a 4-goal margin to equal our GD. They're between 1/66 and 1/100 to go down now.

They could, but I can't see it.

Palace have better form away from home. Hodgson is as straight as a die. No way does he tell his players to underperform.

Yeah This!
Even as a Palace fan, he's on record as saying he doesn't get the rivalry as it didn't really exist in his youth.

Fulham were on the beach, and Cardiff still played like absolute shit. Everyone talking about the final 10 mins is also ignoring the number of sitters Mitrovic and other Fulham players missed throughout the first 80 mins. If all decent chances went in Fulham still would've beaten them, comfortably.


Fulham have a temporary manager who wants the job permanently and a team of players who are playing for pride, playing for jobs next season (either in the hope of a prem move or to not get discarded in the championship). Fulham were also lucky not to concede at least one penalty.

Palace are established, none of the players need to show they are premier league quality, they've done it over the last few seasons. Their manager is safe. They have less to play for than Fulham.

CP are simply a far better football team than Cardiff, with millions riding on as high a PL position as possible.

Cardiff are down.

Did somebody forget to remind Fulham, Southampton, Bournemouth and Cardiff how hard we are to break down? Asking for a friend.
