Wigan interim manager Graham Barrow: "To be honest, the only thing I'm disappointed about is the result. That's probably as good a 90 minutes as we've played for quite a while. I think we've played well in spells, both since I've been in charge and all season. But certainly from start to finish, it was as good as we've played.

"If I'm being brutally honest, I thought we missed our opportunity in the first 20-25 minutes by not being that little bit more ruthless, That's the only thing I can fault about the performance.

"I've said all along I'd like to take it all the way. If we get the right result tomorrow we can take it to the second-last game of the season, which I think would be an achievement. I'm not trying to escape anything but, since I've been in charge, we've never been in charge of our own destiny. I wanted to get in control of that, but we haven't managed to do that."

Cardiff manager Neil Warnock: "It's incredible what they've done since I've been here [to climb above Wigan and away from trouble]. The lads have really knuckled down really well. It wasn't a pretty game but you can see the spine of the team is very good.

"If we can add a few goals and a bit more quality in certain areas I'm looking forward to a good season next year.

"I don't think anyone needs to be asking me what I'd like to get out of the next two games. Huddersfield are my old club and Newcastle are a team I'd love to beat, if I'm honest. Two wins out of two would be nice and we'll definitely be looking to finish like that."
