Steve Morison has admitted he is not holding out much hope of success for Cardiff’s City appeal against the red card shown to Aden Flint. Bluebirds manager Morison has confirmed the club will try to reverse the decision to send off Flint at the end of the tempestuous 1-1 draw at West Bromwich Albion. Two red cards were shown at the final whistle as tempers boiled over at the end at The Hawthorns.

By Gareth James Steve Morison believes there will be no January sales rush when the transfer window opens next week. The Cardiff City manager is predicting a slow start to the month for all clubs with worries over the impact of Covid-19 resulting in reluctance to sell players or let them go out on loan. […]

By Gareth James Newport County chairman Gavin Foxall says a £3m Welsh Government support fund for sports clubs in Wales is not enough to cover the loss of revenue from playing games behind closed doors. The club’s Boxing Day fixture at home to Forest Green Rovers was called off due to Covid cases in the […]

Swansea City head coach Russell Martin says the financial impact from playing behind closed doors has already hit his January recruitment plans. Martin – who had held discussions with chief executive Julian Winter and the club’s American owners about new recruits in the January transfer window – says the fall in income from the Welsh Government’s closure of stadia to fans has affected his ability to bring in new players. The Swans will play at least three matches behind closed doors because of the new restrictions to combat rising Covid rates and the Welsh Government has given no end date for the policy, which does not apply in England.

By Gareth James Former Wales and Cardiff City striker Robert Earnshaw has continued to climb the coaching ladder in the USA with his appointment as an assistant at Orange County SC. Earnshaw – who was previously a youth coach at Vancouver Whitecaps before coaching at Fresno FC – will be the right-hand man to head […]

Cardiff City and Swansea City could both be hit by new rules that may impact Welsh sport across the festive fixture lists. Both clubs have already seen their weekend Championship matches postponed because of Covid outbreaks and now they are waiting on an announcement from the Welsh Government over possible new restrictions. First Minister Mark Drakeford has revealed his officials are set for talks with the clubs as well as representatives from others sports including rugby and horse racing. Cardiff are due to be at home to Coventry City on Boxing Day, while the Swans are scheduled to be at Millwall.

Steve Morison has been impressed by Cardiff City’s powers to get up off the canvass – but has told them it’s time to stop being hit. Morison saw his team come from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at Birmingham City in a routine that has become familiar since he took charge. But even though the rookie manager praised his team’s resilience, he admitted they need to stop being whacked early in contests if they are to move away from the Championship relegation scrap.

Steve Morison has claimed Cardiff City delivered a “positive performance” despite another home defeat that has put them back in relegation trouble. The Bluebirds manager insisted there was not much wrong with his team’s display in their 3-2 reverse against Sheffield United, aside from Sean Morrison’s sending off which his namesake said had “killed off” his team’s hopes of a victory. It was Cardiff’s second defeat in three matches and leaves them just one place above the Championship relegation zone, although they have a five-point lead over Peterborough United, who also lost.

Cardiff City manager Steve Morison has claimed no-one cares whether his team win at home or away, so long as the points are gathered. The Bluebirds return to the Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday, looking to build on their away victory at Luton Town last week, which gave Morison his third victory since he took over from Mick McCarthy. Two of those three wins have come away from home, with Morison’s home record so far showing one win against Huddersfield, but two defeats – to QPR and Hull City.

By Tom Prosser Cardiff City legend and record appearance holder Phil Dwyer has sadly passed away at the age of 68. Legend is an often overused word in sport but Dwyer well and truly goes down as a Bluebirds great and is one of the most popular players of all-time amongst the Cardiff City faithful. Dwyer was born just a stone’s throw away from Ninian Park in Grangetown and joined the club at the age of 16.

“A beautiful, hostile atmosphere,” is how Roberto Martinez described the cauldron of passion at the Cardiff City Stadium as his Belgium team drew 1-1 with Wales earlier this month. With Rob Page’s team having been drawn to meet Austria in the World Cup play-offs next March, the Red Wall must replicate and amplify that remarkable atmosphere. You rarely see the words beautiful and hostile sitting next to each other in a sentence.

Ruben Colwill has praised the impact of manager Steve Morison, claiming his methods are behind Cardiff City’s upturn in form that is pulling them away from the Championship relegation zone. Colwill scored one of Cardiff’s goals in their 2-1 win at Luton Town at the weekend, which made it three wins from four matches under Morison. That sequence has enabled the club to extend the gap between themselves and Peterborough United – who are two places below them in 22nd spot – to five points.
