    Brilliant article, I didn't really fully appreciate how complicated our tactics were before now. Hopefully as others have said, if we stay up this season we can work on being a regular fixture in the PL and grow as a club encouraging better players to fit into the system. Judging how we're doing already without such players imagine how we could do with better suitable players. Also I wonder how Pratley would have influenced this season if he had stayed. He's got a hell of an engine!

    It's quite similar except Barca use the added tactic of passing forward every so often.

    Is it true that only chicken breasts should be used in a Tiki Taka ?

    When you look up in Cardiff what do you see .... a blue sky, the Prem League .... what you don't see is the glass ceiling you keep banging your heads into for decades now. Oh yes, one other thing, you see swans flying overhead, every other weekend when we head out to play other Prem league clubs ... flying high above the glass ceiling, blue skies all around. It doesn't matter how we play. We are where you are not. We play how you cannot.

    That's the only genuinely funny thing I've ever seen you post, but fair play it gave me a giggle!

    You may laugh about how you've "got us hook line and sinker" but in reality we're all laughing at your need to get one over on us. It's impossible until at least the end of the season, as we're in the PL. Sod the League Cup, we've got the second highest scoring Englishman in the Premier League in our team and barring a catastrophic collapse we're looking ok to stay in said league, much to the delight of most people. Apart from you evidently. Much more fun to have an inferior football team so that you can snipe at your lofty neighbours all the time, eh?

    Scotty i live amongst you lot at the moment and to be fair the talk is all the 2 sporting events up London this w/end ,don`t think any Cardiff fan would swap with a swansea fan even now .

    Yes you are in the Prem at the moment but would a West Ham fan swap or want to be a Blackburn/Wigan fan?,same for Cardiff City as you will even admit this yourself we are the biggest club in Wales and a historic final this w/end as been in both now ...........

    Sunday Swans between 3-00 and 4-45 and then catch up on the Wales game no time for any other game and as i'm going to Stoke i dont think i will get much option to see the rugby unless i can get a signal on my phone and watch a stream

    Sources are predicting a massive turn-off for the Carling Cup Final. Sky and BBC are planning to switch coverage from Wembley to the Stoke v. Swansea game as it will attract more viewers. <ok>

    My brother is a BBC cameraman and he's been told to take his camera down pronto and get up the M1/M6 by tomorrow night.

    I think radio is still covering the CC final though.

    "don`t think any Cardiff fan would swap with a swansea fan even now ."

    Really? REALLY?

    Oh come on.

    £90M in the bank. Playing good football against some of the best clubs in the world week in week out.

    Another nice day out at Wembley in the final of a cup nobody really cares about. A piss-up after to drown your sorrows.​


    Now let me think.....<laugh>
