I was wondering if anyone had spotted our achievement being recognised by the bigger stars born in and AROUND Cardiff whom I presume may have an allegiance it is a genuine question.
Apologies for not being clear Shitpea
What do you mean by responses?Quote:

Ramsey obviously wants Caerphilly United to get to the Premier League ahead of Cardiff City.Quote:

Is there a Caerphilly United?? And if so where do they play??
He went to school in Blackwood, so maybe he wants Blackwood Town FC to reach the premier league ahead of Caerphilly United (if such a team exists) and Cardiff City?
YesQuote:

Your both wrong he went to Cardinal Newman.
He was born in Caerphilly miners.
Unfortunately there is no Caerphilly united.
The only "star" footballers I can think of from Cardiff in my lifetime are Bale, Bellamy and Toshack. Piss poor really.
Is Blakey from Cardiff?Quote:

I’d forgotten about Chinaglia. He was born in Italy but moved to Cardiff aged five. Here’s an interview with him during his time in the US in the 70s. Still had a Cardiff twang thereQuote:

Cardiff City does just belong to people born in Cardiff? It’s Fanbase is 1.5m, covering the area from Bridgend to Newport and the Valleys. I reckon less than half our crowds are from the City itself?
This ones been done many times on here. A few years ago the club did show the figures of season ticket holders based on postcode. I’m pretty sure that the majority came from CF postcodes within the City itself.Quote:

Paul James - Played for Canada @ World Cup

Craig Bellamy
John Toshack
That’s why I said CF postcodes from within the City. Anyway, I’m not sure what relevance your point has to the originals post which was about the views of footballers born in Cardiff about their hometown club.Quote:
