I think I have posted this in the past but it turned up again today on my laptop.

I know we've all enthused about the way the Bluebirds swept aside Rotherham on Saturday, despite being down to 10 men. Well in 1999 City were down to 8 men away at Cambridge in a real backs to the wall finish. This commentary by Phil Stead has everything. How the travelling City fans had any nails left, I don't know.

8-man Cardiff City held Cambridge United to a 0-0 draw despite receiving 3 red cards during the game. This commentary was recorded by Phil Stead on a dictaphone amongst the City supporters. Phil was running the club website at the time, and was trialling audio commentaries to use on the site. The commentary captures all the excitement and emotion of the day, even if he does lose it completely towards the end.
