    Are you that famous Irish/Welsh guitarist Dai O'Rea?

    I'm definitely going to lose my excrement with the club if this is a sign of things to come and reflective of our ambitions next season!!

    Well, I have to say I'm pretty happy with the home kit for this year.

    Unfussy and a couple of decent nods to our past.

    Personally I'd be quite happy if they now made our change kit reflective of the Riverside FC kit of chocolate and amber quarters as a one off for the season...

    As a nod to the past I'd like us to play every game in blue UNLESS we're away and there's a clash.
    Then as another nod to the past, the old Riverside kit.
    And no need for a 3rd kit.<cheers>

    Aye, that's what I meant (poor terminology on my part saying away kit rather than change kit).

    If we DO have to have a 3rd kit then the traditional yellow, blue and white would be nice but I'd tolerate a decent looking red number as a nod to VT if needs be.

    It might not go down well with everyone but I think the old Riverside kit/colours is awful.

    Very drab and suited to black and white TV.

    A throw back to everyone standing and smoking, flat caps, no roof on the stadium, everyone soaking wet if it rained and all the kids at the front (having nicked in over the wall like Masky) standing on boxes.

    I'm surprised these points aren't in the Reform Party manifesto.

    Not quite anniversary of the team stuff, but kinda fits with this... 15 years ago today we officially 'opened' the CCS.

    https://www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/news/city-history-15-years-cardiff-city-stadium

    I should have remembered as I was there and it also happens to be my birthday too (no, I'm not 15 years old, I mean the 22nd July)..

    In some ways it feels a lot longer - certainly when I think of how much I still miss Ninian Park in so many ways. But, the older we get, the more we can appreciate more comfortable surroundings I suppose (not to mention having a roof over the loo and hot running water from taps (most of the time)).

    Still not been there. Attended quite a few away games in that time, but none at home.

    Happy Birthday Brizzle. The stadium might be 15 years old but in all that time they still haven't sorted out the tannoy system in the Ninian stand particularly Block 114 where BfB and I sit. I still have copies of email correspondence between BfB me and Wayne Nash going back many years promising to look at the issue. It's as bad as ever!

    They asked me to complete a survey last week. I made one comment on the very same topic.

    Will they listen? Will they cluck?

    My level of whelmness is as low as yours Nin.

    I had an email something was to be delivered by Royal Mail today. I didn't recognise the sending company so didn't open any tracking links in case of spam.

    Turned out to be genuine - need not have bothered.

    Mine is coming today. My anticipation has now been reduced to the level of watching the Jacks play.

    Me too. I thought it was a spam email, albeit it appeared genuine. I can't decide whether to take the items out of the box or tuck it away for the next 125 years in the hope it might be worth something
