    Enjoy it lads - a magnificent achievement so make the most of it! Didn't attend Swansea's open top parade as was afraid I would get too excited and bring shame on myself and my family with an act of gross indecency in front of the bus! ;)

    You lot will be an excellent addition to the premier league family - have been impressed not just with the team, but also the many awards you have won re your treatment of visiting fans! We have all had our fair share of problems caused by some of our knuckle dragging morons but CCFC have pulled out all the stops to make opposition fans feel welcome!

    So welcome to the big time boys - am looking forward to a couple of blinding derbies and wish you well for your first season in the Prem!

    Good luck for every match bar the two against us! <cheers>

    Hi Cartoonhead, good to hear from you.

    The weather looks set fair for the weekend so it should be a carnaval atmosphere. Too far for me to travel and still haven't quite come to terms with the fact that we've made it.

    A lot of water has flowed under the bridge from the darker days in terms of supporters behaviours. I still remember the fences all around the pitch and the cage tunnel to get away fans from the station to the ground. Huge progress has been made.

    I hope next season's derby sets the standards for atmosphere and behaviour.

    I couldn't agree with you more mate - hope the idiots stay well away. We both have reputations as family friendly grounds, would be a real shame if a minority of morons spoilt that.
