I think he's an actor isn't he? The one off that thing with Jasper Carrot?
Nah mate, I believe you're thinking of Jesus there..
Jasper and Jesus, top 80's telly.
I thought the same
Me too.
Exactly.
Never heard of him.
He's best known for drink driving a golf buggy down the M4
When I heard he had retired, siting mental health problems, I genuinely had empathy for him, I still do. But if he genuinely suffers from depression and all that goes with it, why on earth would he tweet controversial opinions. I guess, he doesn't read the responses.
I doubt he can read egg chasing kuuuunt
My bad , I thought it was Andy Howell the midget eggo reporter . Not mongo
I've seen him at a couple of City games back at NP and his previous tweets were in support of us. I think maybe he was just trying to drum up support.
Bit of a misguided way to do it. But no need to get upset .
You are right he is a Bluebirds fan and goes to a game as often as he can. It sounds to me he was telling us to get of of our arses and support the boys.
Whilst pointing out, that the supporters of the nearest club to his beloved Bluebirds are more loyal. Not having a go at you, but he doesn't sound like a big fan to me.
There we go.
Thanks.
Although I wonder if he was there myself.
Only met him briefly through a few rugby mates, but he seems a good laugh.
And in some ways he's right, when both clubs were telly crap it always seemed to me that the people of Swansea got behind their team more than those of Cardiff.
For most of the 80s and 90s our crowds were similar, despite City getting a good number of fans from the Valleys.
Hard to admit, but as a percentage of population over the years they probably do back their team more.
In fact in the past we've had thousands in our own city who've actively despised the football club, hence why some of us are so passionate about trying to get people behind the club.
A lot of their support comes from outside the City of Swansea, ie Port Talbot, Neath, Swansea Valley, Llanelli, Ammanford, Carmarthen etc they are no different to us on that concern.
With regards to us being despised in our "own city" I would say that its more of a South East Wales issue, where plastic Liverpool, Man Utd not to mention the once a season egg brigade have looked down on the club for what ever reason!
Never been bothered about what these types think about us "F**k em"
The crowd WAS dire though. As was the football.
Andy who?
AVERAGE WELSH SPORTING ATTENDANCES, 2012-13
*Figures correct as of 25 January
Cardiff City 22,041

Scarlets 8,009
NG Dragons 5,124
Enough said imho

If the welsh football clubs went through the rebrands most of the rugby teams have, playing in one of the worst sporting leagues around - Our attendances would be down there.
Indeed, thank **** that's never happened to us
before you laugh it would be like newport and cardiff being merged.
Then moving them into the welsh premier.
You are aware we got rebranded, aren't you? What would you have done differently re the regions to ensure that Wales remained competitive?
I get that, but unless you were a Pontypridd supporter, surely Cardiff RFC supporters just carried on supporting the Blues?
On Boxing day, Cardiff Blues played the Dragons, surely as Welsh regional rugby goes, that's as big a game as there is right?
Attendance was 11,000
I've got no real problem with the Egg, I just find it ironic that rugby fans are slagging us off for having attendances they can only dream of.
