' SO CAN CARDIFF CITY DO IT ?/PLUS "

Plus not only can Cardiff City do it? Sheffield Wednesday must not win any of their last two games

Cardiff City now face Sheffield Wednesday away next Saturday at 3pm with only one thing on their mind - they must win! Anything less than three points and it's all over simple.

A City victory would leave them just one point behind their rivals heading into the final weekend,when City will be at home to Birmingham City.

Tickets are on sale now for Cardiff Fans
Adults £36; 65 & over - £26; 16 and under - £10; 10 and under - £5.

Cardiff are expected to take their biggest away support for years,for what Slade has billed,Cardiff City's Cup Final.

Assuming City pull off a win next week they will then need to beat Birmingham at Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday May 7 12.30pm and hope Sheffield Wednesday lose or draw at Wolves.

If Cardiff draw against Birmingham and Sheffield Wednesday lose at Wolves then both teams would be level on 71 points. However, with Wednesday's goal difference currently +11 compared to Cardiff's, it is surely impossible to see that being overturned?
Cardiff City would have to hammer their rivals next weekend and hope Wolves do likewise on the final day.

So could it be two cup finals in two weeks for Russell Slades team, you have to admit,it surely is an exciting end to the season :ayatollah: :bluebird:

If you look at that picture the players certainly believe!

It was handed to Slade on a plate. Sheff Wed are out of form, albeit a decent draw away to Derby but that result made no difference to promotion aspirations, in essence that point was worthless. It still meant Cardiff can do it if we win 2, they lose (to us) and draw.

I wouldn't be shocked if the result is 0-0 at Hillsborough, Slade only thought right now is to keep it tight, hence why playing the worst team in the league was out of his comfort zone when he was obliged to be the aggressor, he hated it, said he would of lost his hair if he had any!

I'd be absolutely amazed if we were to get into the play off's but to be honest with you i just don't think we are good enough. Never mind, miracles can happen?

Thats how I feel if I am honest,but in life/football, you never really know and while there is hope,we must now get 100% behind them :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :bluebird: :bluebird:

Yes Annis, we should enjoy the ride now :ayatollah: :sladein: :laughing6:

It's 2 teams out of form so anything can happen :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :bluescarf:

Sheff Wed under pressure more than us. Crowd will be nervous up there, all positives :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :bluescarf:

The ticket prices are a disgrace, the fans who make the journey will deserve a BIG performance from the players :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :bluescarf: :bluescarf:

I've been positive for a while, and I still think we'll do it :ayatollah:

Really is a cup final next week.

Sheffield W celebrated like mad when they beat us 1-0 in the final game of the season to stop our play off hopes in 2008 or 9 (Preston gate season), when they had nothing to play for.

Since then I have always thought we are owed one over them. Revenge would be perfect if we overhauled them in similar circumstances :bluescarf:

However, things like that simply don't happen to us :( ;)

I've never know a season where we have had so many chances to take advantage and constantly keep messing it up, but are are still in with a chance. I think we can do it and will end up sneaking in to 6th place on the last day
