Disaster, catastrophe, humiliation. When it comes to describing Cardiff City's limp showing in Saturday's South Wales derby, you can take your pick of the above, although some Bluebirds fans may well be using some more colourful language to describe it all. Derby humiliations are becoming all too common in the capital.
The 4-0 defeat to the Swans will have hurt fans and, hopefully, the players too, although Steve Morison has already expressed hope that his side can move on and focus on the bigger picture. But this calamity will certainly place the final few weeks of Cardiff's season under the microscope, ahead of what could be a huge summer.
It already seemed likely there would be a huge revamp of Morison's squad at the end of the season. Now, summer plans have come under sharper focus. Plans are seemingly already in place, with Cardiff set to cast the net beyond these shores and across Europe as they bid to bring new faces on board. Indeed, a number of irons are already in the fire as we approach the final few weeks of the current season.
