just read the wales on sunday rag.they want to open a debate about who is number 1 in wales. they got a bluebird fan who goes on about stadium size and fan base ...blah blah blah.winning fa cup 84 years ago.for years we been told to look at the league table because it doesnt lie.. well now that we are in a higher league,they move the goalposts....so using their logic ... in the 70's when man utd were relegated to div 2 were they better than leeds who were winnings titles and reaching euro cup final because old trafford was bigger than elland rd .NO. in the late 70's and all thou the 80's where man utd better than liverpool because old trafford was bigger than anfield..NO . try telling a chelsea fan that newcastle are better than them because st james's is bigger than the bridge.. using their logic they would have to admit that both sheffield teams are better than cardiff even thou they are in the league below they have bigger stadiums.far as iam concerned there is no debate at all......ps bothroyd said he would never sign for us out of loyalty to cardiff 1. we dont want him 2. if he is loyal to cardiff why hasnt he signed the contract they offered.... like leon britton said last season "jay is not the brightest of guys"
So, they have a watchmen area with 1.5 million people, we have 300,000 in our area. So ee must have a higher percentage watching our team than they do. Straws and clutching come to mind. http://m.walesonline.co.uk/ms/p/tmg...iew.m?id=3133938&tid=638956&cat=Football_News
yeah pissed myself at that. 3mill people in wales and half are potential cardiff fans . where do they get these people from ... with their huge stadium and 1.5 mill fans you would think they would have no probs getting into the premier league wouldnt you.you read the mirror today .ken gorman (voice of welsh sport)wrote "new cardiff manager will have a 12 million war chest". where they get that from in such a short time. if they spent quarter of that in january they could be in the premier with us . instead they spent 100k on jon "the honey monster"parkin....
Oh dear they are smarting aren't they ? The fact is crowd size matters little, or Leeds would be where we are, what matters is that the Swans are above them on merit, we got there in a about the third of the time Cardiff has been in the Champioship, we have achieved the top flight twice in my life, Cardiff was last up there when my Grandfather was a nipper! Basically we are better equipped to survive up there because we reached there, and despite all the money spent and all the loan signings they have had, they bottled it, and unless they get the right people in, that will happen again next season.
They'll be smarting even more when they find out that Man City have Slapped a £4m price tag on Bellamy!!! Anyone get the feeling reality is about to set in on the Capital.............. please log in to view this image
OMFG I just read that tripe. He goes on about out of the two teams it could only be cardiff that could stay up, consolidate and push for a top 6... Your having a fecking laugh fella, you got to get there first. Things are going to go to ****e this season for them (Hopefully) because everyone near enough has walked or been sold. Or gone back to their parent club!! (Bad borrowers) Also taking into account how many of cardiff's ST were sold last year when they had the offer on the IF they got promoted the cost would be refunded... Utter rubbish of a biased Welsh media. what a load of ****
cardiff got 12 million to spend on players ( so says life long bluebird ken gorman a journo who in my opinion is the worst there is . he calls himself "the voice of welsh sport" yet in the past he has called the swans "those lot down the road" ) so 4 million wont be a prob for them. a bargain if you ask me.hope they sign him.heaton gyepes mcnaughton naylor hudson wildeg taiwo whittingham mcphail parkin bellamy..... formidable line up they going to have next season. and they will still have 8 million to spend in january if things dont go to well ...
Not bothered about pro cardiff journalism like i,m not bothered about cardiff city they can only dream about where we are now..
they have had their noses put out of joint and they are hurting badly......they thought they had it cracked with their loan players and their so called super stars but we kept our heads down and came up on the rails and beat them to finish 3rd, and what really tipped them over the edge was us winning the playoff final....god that really hurt them, well if you look at the last decade cardiff has always been in our shadow as for running a club properly. first welsh side to move into a new stadium, and now first welsh club to reach the promise land and when you go back even further we were the last welsh club to play top flight football, so yes they are smarting because yet again we have showed our cousins just how it is done...he cream will always rise to the top as we have showed poor cardiff city......ain't life a bitch sometimes...
F**k em. hope they go bust and then they can get to the premier league. Thats the Welsh Premier league.
