Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
......has to be done before someone runs off and tops himself over in the other thread.
Two for me which are inseparable .....
1970/71 - City 1 Real Madrid 0
1975/76 - City 2 Hereford Utd 0 in front of 35,000 and a terrific atmosphere.
After our struggles to stay in the old 2nd division for many of the previous 13 seasons, we had been relegated the season before, but Jimmy Andrews turned things around and got us straight back up. Hereford won the division easily, but this was the game that put us in second place. In the last three games of the season, we actually didn't score another goal, but it was enough.

We did, we beat Bury 0-1 in the last game of the season, what a night that was, everyone on the pitch celebrating.

Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
Single best moment?
How can Ben Turners last minute of extra time equaliser against Liverpool in the cup final ever be beaten?? That moment alone was indescribable... sat right at the back of the top tier Wembley, you could see the bodies flying everywhere. Granted- the following 20 minutes were a bit shit, but that 60 second period of goal + celebration better everything else I have experienced.

Got to be this. It's the most mental I've ever gone. The time between him finding the ball at his feet and it hitting the net seemed to last for five or six seconds.

Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
I've never gone as mad as I did for that Turner goal. Unbelievable.
Other than that Boro away in the cup and realising we were going to Wembley was incredible to be there.
And beating Leeds at home in the cup, i was young at the time and that match started to get me properly hooked.

Watching us beat the double winning Spurs team on a saturday night with my dad.
My first ever City game as a 10 year old. Hooked for life!!

Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
Andy Campbell's goal against qpr was some moment too. Never been hugged by so many strangers at a match before.

Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
Young versus Leeds beats Blake's wonder goal versus Man City by a short head.

Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
Probably the Pompey Cup final, and having a picture with my son at the Bobby Moore statue.

Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
Proudest - seeing them in an FA Cup final
Craziest- Ben Turners goal
Not sure which is the 'best'

Yes, the FA cup final, especially for us older ones, was a simply magical moment.
It was once a dream , when the Cup Final was a really significant football & social event, to reach it.
Walking down Wembley Way and hearing Abide with me was something I will never forget.

Shows how crap we have been , for so long

Well spotted. The old memory isn't what it was.......:facepalm:

Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
When Tony Bird put us 2-1 up at Standard Liege.
I was still underneath 10 bodies when they equalised straight from the re-start!!
Also when Buchanan hit it!!!

Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
Ben Turners equaliser was facking mental, when that went in I totally lost my shit.
The penalty shoot out v Leicester City is right up there but it was unbelievably nerve racking.
-
Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
Of those great moments not already mentioned I shall bring the Chops last minute winner and celebration against the JBs to the party.
Certainly one of my favourite CCS moments.

I was on the front row of the top tier. How someone didn’t go over the top I don’t know.
That roar has got to be the single loudest roar ever for a city goal by some distance. The 2 play off goals against Blackpool were good celebrations but nothing comes close to Turners.

Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
Lets throw the 0.6 beating of Jursetts mob in the mix too

Re: Single best moment as a Cardiff City supporter
John Buchannon’s free kick against Swansea to make it 3-3. Nothing since has beaten that for me.

That was pretty good; I was 16 at the time and right behind the Grange goal - Derek Hogg winner for 3-2 wasn't it?
