Cardiff celebrate return to blue with a win

Cardiff's boys in blue started their first match back in their traditional kit with a hard fought win over Fulham.

A Sean Morrison header from an Aaron Gunnarsson throw-in early in the first half was enough to secure all three points for Russell Slade's men.

The attendance was recorded at over 22,000 - a huge increase from around 4,000 who attended the Bluebird's last home game against Colchester in the FA Cup.

Elsewhere in the Football League, Newport County secured their fourth win on the bounce - they dispatched Portsmouth 1-0 at Rodney Parade in League Two.

Wrexham fought back from two goals down to draw 2-2 with Stockport, earning an FA Trophy second round replay.
