How many football fans can say they have actually had tickets and watched their LOCAL team play in all 4 professional leagues and BOTH domestic cup finals?! Well as from August....I can!! To my brother Cameron, you may no longer be with us, but I know you are looking down smiling on us. Today is for ALL City fans past, present, Red and Blue!! Lets all do the Malky!!
I know only 26 my grandad took me to my first game with my uncle, back in 91/92 season! Sadly my Grandad ain't here to witness any off the journeys we have been on. FA Cup Final, Carling Cup Final, Play Off Final and now to be crowned Champions. I'm so proud and privileged to have witnessed this! Whether in blue or red I don't care. I didn't start supporting this great club because we played in blue I supported them because I'm a Cardiff Boy and was brought up to love this club... Now I'm going to sit back and enjoy next season no matter what!
Off the top of my head I would say there has been no other team that has ever achieved this feat, a decent claim to fame if this is the case but I would love to know if it is not.
We can. And it's been rather recent for us both hasn't it? We began our ascent in 2003/2004 under Peter Taylor. Back to back promotion from League 2 to the Chamionship, three Seasons before getting into the Premier League in 2008 via Wembley. I saw something on Twitter saying that the bottom 3 back in the old Division 3 in the 90's was Doncaster, Hull, Cardiff, look at the difference now. Obviously, we haven't been to Cup Finals because we have a Cup hoodoo but in regards to all four Divisions, we're similar.
