    Three or four max , the championship isn't a learn on the job league to say the least .

    I only speak as I find and I don't mean and disrespect what so ever but your current squad is way way off the pace at championship level .

    Some experience would give you a fair shout at staying up as oppose to getting eaten alive with younger players and the realistic budget you will be operating under .
    with the current squad it would be a repeat of last time we was there.

    we need a new defence and centre forward line

No doubt in the fact that what little we have to spend has to be spent wisely and even then we'll need a massive slice of luck and team spirit to survive. Depending on what happens in 7 days it could all be moot anyway.

    Cardiff had the best defence in the league joint with the wolves the champions and only conceded 38 goals

    they was the 6th highest scorers in the league.

    Not surprising that Cardiff has a well drilled defence.
    We've seen first hand what a defence coached by Kevin Blackwell can achieve.

    Ronnie Jepson also made us a much more effective attacking unit - Matt D moved out to the left and getting the best out of L Best
