Nope. Was given the boot from a Premier League club for not being very good. Yeah, MON was much better. Sure it wasn't the sh*tty team that caused all the problems? |

Lololol. Did I say he was? MON did have a better win % though.
The same team Bruce inherited/built and then dismantled (going against signing Sulley Muntari on a permanent deal to sign David Vaughan for example) so quick? Yeah probably.

Kinda strange how both Steve Bruce and MON were successful at every club they managed until Sunderland though..... |

Have I missed Steve Bruce being a success as a manager? He did okay at Birmingham THEN got relegated with them.
If you're okay going through a sequence without winning a game (9 games with Wigan 08/09, 14 games with Sunderland 09/10, 10 games with Sunderland 10/11) then that's fine. But managing a football club like us who have a rich history, good recources, great facilities and have 40k+ attending every home game I don't think you'd get away with it as much.

Hope you do it (though you will anyway), got no problems with 2 Welsh teams in the PL. Would mean another derby too. Shame Bruce looks like he's coming back up too.. We can go up without getting another point this season. This is the only time I've ever been confident in saying Cardiff City will be a Premier League club next season... At last |

At last Hopefully you're joined by Hull but god, Cardiff - So many seasons they've come close and thrown it away. Obviously they're going up this season; reckon they'll go up and stay there? |

I'm not too sure mate. It depends what approach we take. If we take the Norwich/Swansea approach then I think we'll be okay, I would rather that than doing a QPR. In Malky we trust! |

Where you been Mark? Haven't seen you in about 9 games I've been too worried that we might end up being managed by a fascist if Pearson's sacked to be posting on WF. Doesn't look like that's happening now though, so happy days.  |

Phew, for a moment I thought you topped yourself after seeing you boys blowing promotion completely. Glad to see all is well  |

Just an incredible night. I am so so proud that we have finally done it. The atmosphere last night was something else. Unbelieveable scenes at the end.
Malky Mackay is now a Cardiff City legend.

Mental day yesterday. Rivaled the previous weekend's events for sure. I'm hoping for Brighton or Leicester to come up. Brighton for something new, and Leicester I prefer the most out of the other three.
