F.A. CUP DRAW, WOLVES come to PARC NIN

Watch out, Wolves are about

Not a glamour draw, not an easy one either but when CARDIFF CITY vs Wolves balls were out (ooo-errr) in the 5th Round draw, it certainly presented The Bluebirds with a winnable game and an even chance of progress to the F.A. Cup quarter-final. It could have been far worse than that one too.

Cardiff City lost 3-2 to Wolves earlier this season in the Championship but are a very different proposition today. The sides are level on points, City 8th and Wolves 9th. Wolves have an average away record, only 3 wins on the road this season and struggled in Round 3 of the Cup to overcome non-league Cambridge 2-1 before grabbing an outstanding 4-1 win at fading Watford last weekend in Round Four but they do blow hot and cold with only 1 win in their last 9 Championship games.

Subject to tv scheduling, it’s bound to be a full house at Ninian Park on February 16th. Can we lock Jed Moxey outside???
