The World is watching...

[Cowbridge Blue]

...a decent report from the Charlotte Observer, a daily newspaper serving North and South Carolina:

The Observer's circulation is just short of 200,000. S Wales Echo and Western Mail together have a daily circulation a little over 30,000.

Very good.

[Llanedeyrnblue]

Good piece

[BR1 Bluebird]

It's written by The Associated Press, their equivalent of The Press Association. The same story will be syndicated across US media this week.

So what? Still a good article.

You make it sound like I said a bad thing. I was pointing out this isn't just going in a newspaper for 300,000 readers and however many online users. This will be nationwide in the US.

[NYCBlue]

It's all over the place. We're famous again.

I can never get used to how sentences like "Fulham has gone 23 games unbeaten in the league, stretching back to December when it was 18 points behind Cardiff" sound the way American write about sports teams

[Wales-Bales]

I hope the journalist wins a Pulitzer Prize for his outstanding work.

You've obviously misunderstood what BR1 Bluebird was getting at.

It's a good piece.

I thought it was a well written piece but we set the bar so low around regional football journalists these days I suppose. We can only await in anticipation what the Hugh Mcilvanney of Berkshire, Russell Kempson, is dreaming up about Warnock from his Tilehurst lair!

“Cardiff, the gritty battlers playing and fighting in the image of their manager. Fulham, the easy-on-the-eye team from an affluent area of west London”

Up Scumbag! Up Scumbag!

It makes sense though. Fulham Football Club is a single entity.

[Organ Morgan.]

The world is indeed watching. So are Royals. Sources close to Buckingham Palace suggest Her Majesty the Queen, Phil and the corgis will take an early luncheon this Sunday in order to tune into Sky Sports live coverage of the game.

[Cowbridge Blue]

With all this shenanigans we'd better win this f*ckin' game!

[WJ99mobile]

It's a good piece.

Is it?

“When Cardiff's players take on Reading on Sunday needing a victory to seal automatic promotion, they'll be wearing the 119-year-old club's traditional color of blue.”

We didn’t start playing in blue until 1908

Depends where you are in the world whether you treat teams and groups as if they’re singular or plural proper nouns. Both ways make sense it just sounds jarring one way when you’re used to the other.

[Louth]

I wrote an article for the local newspaper here. They rejected it on the basis that I included 'we'll fecking stuff them.'

The club is 119 years old. Our traditional colour is blue.
