  • That Cardiff City fan.

    Got the result right. He’s not happy.

    He reminds me of Peter Finch in Network at one point, but he’s right, the players (and the hierarchy at the club) need to be shown stuff like this.

            He does. Watching Cardiff City can drive anyone to profanity, and worse, but that podcast seems to consist of him switching between 'f*ck off' and f*cking hell', which might neatly summarise our season but doesn't make for an engaging podcast.

              Quite.

              I was appalled when he used the f word almost straight away. Time to switch off.

                I have to say I have no issue with swearing and I quite like the power of the words when used well.

                But I found it weirdly unsavoury. I wouldn't be happy with my kid doing that and I don't mind my kids (who are younger) swearing but I wouldn't be happy with it in the public sphere like that.

                Anyway, grandad rant over, I'm sure he's a good kid!

                  My old man would have slapped me up if i'd spoken like that in front of him.

                    I never, ever, swore in front of my parents, even when I was in adulthood. Likewise, my parents didn't swear in front of me and my sister.
                    I worked in a steelworks for more than 25 years. We all swore like troopers, however, we knew when to turn off the profanities like a tap.
                    My son is seventeen, he has never swore in front of me or his mother.

                        I enjoyed a couple initially but since he has had good feedback, especially after the Leeds game away, I think it's gone to his head a bit. He seems to be swearing for swearing sake.

                        That said, it's no wonder the kids are using it in frontof their elders, the "F" word is now commonplace on the telly, socials etc whereas back in the day you'd rarely hear it, only in the odd film.
                        I've also heard that swearing at teachers goes unpunished these days too.

                        The "C" word however I think he has stayed away from... thus far :hehe:

                          It's not just the swearing (which is awful to see from such a young boy) it's the attempted "Kairdiff" accent he's tying to use 🤦*♂️

                            It's funny how a few of us have been triggered by it. I'm surprised at myself really and as I say, my kids swear in front of me, but it's about context for me.

                              Nobody is triggered Jim.
