Romeo eyeing promotion push

Summer signing Mahlon Romeo says Cardiff City are already starting to believe they can compete at the top end of the Championship this season.



Romeo was one of the standout stars in the 1-0 win over Birmingham City on Saturday, a result that's marked a strong start to the season for Cardiff, who have taken two wins from their opening three games.

The 26-year-old is one of 15 players to have made the move to the capital this summer, but despite such a huge level of transition he insists expectations are high in the City dressing room.

"We want to do as well as we can," Romeo said.

"We have to keep playing well. Like Jam (fellow summer signing Jamilu Collins) said a few weeks ago, [the target is] promotion.

"But there are 50-odd games. It's only three games in. It's a long season, a marathon not a sprint. We have just got to keep level and keep improving."

Maybe a bit optimistic at this point in time but rather players have a positive attitude than aiming for mid table attitude.

Interesting bit of trivia I’ve just read - Mahlon Romeo’s father is Jazzie B of Soul II Soul !!
