His previous one went tamely along the ground. Third time lucky?
Leicester are worse than we were against Southampton.

Not sure I get that logic? If they win, Newcastle are virtually safe... draw or lose, it puts WAY too much emphasis on our game for my liking... I want them in their flip flops and Bermuda’s when they rock up to the Amex, surely that suits us at this stage of the game? If they’re still in the mixer, they’ll be all bare chested and angry... not good, when the Geordies mean business.
All that matters is us v Cardiff in a mini league from now until the end of the season, I can’t aspire to more and I’d like to see as many of our opponents playing for nothing... which I reckon will suit us rather nicely.

Would have been lovely to have this Leicester when we rocked up there.
I can see why Rafa was fine with Mitrovic moving on; Rondon and Perez are a good pairing - pace, power, guile and they last 90 minutes.
LCFC do dive a lot, don’t they?

A half empty ground, just a goal down. NOT just an Amex thing.
Leicester wouldn’t have scored if they had played until Christmas. They won’t get another point this season if they carry on like that.
Newcastle are out of it now.
A win tomorrow for us, would be a killer for Cardiff.

If we can't beat a very out of form Bournemouth tomorrow and a pretty dire Crdiff on Tuesday then we probably don't derserve to stay up.
I'm confident though of winning these two games and would still like one more win on top of these so we can surpass last season's total and show some signs of progress.

Not seen such Bravery!
Newcastle safe, and hopefully on the beach by the 27th.
I'd take a draw tomorrow and a win Tuesday.

Exactly what we need as a backstop, just in case the next two home games don't go as planned. A win and two draws will almost certainly do it as Warnock saying Cardiff need ten points.

How come Southampton (equal on points with us, with a worse goal difference, and one fewer matches to play) are 50/1 while we are 17/1? It doesn't make sense.
And we've got two games in hand over Burnley too, with a better goal difference, and they've got a shocking run in, worse than our's, so I'm not quite sure why they're reckoned to be safer than us either.

I don't agree with that either but I guess its because of their history in the top division and managing to stay up when in trouble often in the past? Does seem silly though for the reasons you said. In the media people seem to be talking about us being caught too whilst seemingly forgetting Saints are below us
As for Burnley, regardless of the games they've got left I just think cardiff overcoming 8 points plus 1 more for GD is very unlikely, however if Cardiff do beat them today...
My guess would be reflecting cash flows in the markets, from punters having far less faith with us ..... based on our shocking 2019 PL form. Burnley and Stains have been significantly better, and can pull off vital 6 pointers such as their Amex wins.
Away from our bias, outsiders can't be impressed with us in the slightest.
