I have to travel 50 miles to get to the ground and had no problems getting either in or back, so it is a little hard to understand how some people appeared happy not to attend and hoped the game would be called off.

    Still, as long as you can keep on being deliberatively provocative it doesn't matter does it.

    I, for one, am glad of an opportunity to sincerely apologise to you for the many occasions I've called you a troll on here.
    Clearly this has been a deliberate and considerable understatement of your activity on this board and I hope that this has caused no anxiety or stress to you.

    I just got home in Somerset after delays on the rail network. I can't imagine how bad it was getting to the ground from the suburbs of Cardiff

    And as the games are never sold out it's easy to find a seat or two in the dry

    Snowflake? In my day, they would have used the epithet 'big girl's blouse'.

    Many thanks for your observations, mush
    I'll just add that it was the 50th anniversary of our engagement on 14th and we had a huge party of well-wishers organised for yesterday. Didn't want to miss out for any reason on the festivities.
    Hope this doesn't make you feel too badly about your comments.

    And you missed the game for that? Shame on you

    Exactly. In Scotland it would be shorts and t shirt day.

    Get a seat on the opposite side . We never get wet .

    Get a bit jealous when its sunny though.

    The wind was more westerly than I expected, it was hard work cycling home along Llantrisant Road. Although 4 pints in Canton after the match might not have helped.

    It was odd watching a game 20 miles away where there appeared to be little rain, yet I looked out of the window up here several times and it was absolutely hammering down. It has virtually all day.
    No doubt it hammers down many days this time of year.
    Travelled in out of Central today and can't say I noticed much disruption and certainly didn't stop plenty of valleys girls venturing out in clobber only fit for Magaluf rather St Mary's St.
    Hey ho🤔

    To sum up, anyone who didn't go today because of the weather should have to hand in their season tickets because at worst it was blustery and drizzly

    Thankfully Cardiff wasn't so badly hit.

    This is Mountain Ash railway canal this morning https://youtu.be/QR4fU2vta3M

    We're currently in the middle of a red warning for rain and there has been significant flooding. Not quite your average hammering down, but as you don't live anywhere near you'd have no idea.

    There is flooding in Cardiff by the Taff. The footpath between Tesco Western Avenue and the river is flooded. There is flooding in Pontcanna fields. Radyr Court Road, the opposite side of the river to Hailey Park is flooded.

    Not sure he is being deliberately provocative. But as long as he was ok, then everyone else should be fine as well. I think your double use of idiot is closer to the mark.

    I was referring to his comment about there being no excuse for people not turning up - why was there any need for that? The only thing I can think of is that he feels he has to criticise other supporters about something in every post he makes.

    He's certainly a strange one. Like you said, an idiot. I haven't worked out yet whether he does deliberately try and wind people up or not.
