Cant stand the Jacks but definitely the most successful team in south wales since early eighties
I started supporting the City during the 1964 season. Who finished bottom of the league that season ? Answer: Swansea.
Who replaced them the following season ?
Answer: Bristol City.
Therefore my dislike for Swansea never got off the ground because Welsh Cup matches were not the same as league rivalry and we never had a league game with them again until the mid 70's. Bristol City however kept us company in Div 2 until the mid to late 70's, allowing the rivalry with them to fester.

Since 1980 , Swansea City have been our main rivals , that's 40 years now , most people alive who support cardiff support Cardiff and anyone who is playing swansea
If swansea are playing bristol city and the game does not affect us , I want bristol city to win
I dislike bristol city , I hate the Jacks

Re: Cardiff Swansea rivalry
The Wurzels main rivals for me. We didn’t play Swansea in the league between 1965 and 1980 so my memory of them is initially a team that we occasionally played in the Welsh Cup. Had I been a few years older perhaps Swansea might have registered more. A quick count up shows that, in our history, we have played Swansea 56 times in the league but Bristol City 84 times.

I know loads of Jacks but when it comes to the football club , I am afraid I can't stand them
It's nothing personal

I'm not saying I don't dislike the Swans intensely but I hate the Wurzels even more.
I doubt even you could hate a Swansea player more than Scott Murray, Public Enemy No.1 and an insidious individual.

Re: Cardiff Swansea rivalry
I am amazed at many of the posts on here regarding rivalry. I grew up in the age when Swansea Town ( as they were then) were regarded as the 2nd. Club for almost all City supporters. This ‘hatred’ only emerged from the football hooliganism of the 70’s. Only small minded people carry this on, it’s a bloody game not war. The mind boggles at the attitude of some people.

Football is more than a game
All over the country rivalry is part of what it is
Sunderland Newcastle
United Liverpool
Spurs Chelsea
Southampton Pompey
Villa Birmingham
Blackburn Burnley
If we are in the same division as swansea I want us to win and swansea to lose , unless Swansea result favours us
That's the way it is for most cardiff fans , the hatred came when toshack took them up to the old first but games before then were hostile

I must admit I did enjoy it when after taunting the bob bank in the fa cup game , he went crying to the ref after being hit by a carrot on the bonce in the next game
Tate was a player for the Jacks I couldnt stand
Him and trundle

Re: Cardiff Swansea rivalry

Spurs/Chelsea?? You’ve put Arsenal’s noses right out of joint. Also, I assume you mean Manchester United with Liverpool, that’s more of a plastic non Liverpudlian or Mancunian rivalry in my opinion. In their own cities their local rivalries with Everton and Manchester City are to the fore I’d imagine. The Liverpool/Man Utd thing is most probably more of a going concern in a Cardiff school playground or pub rather than in either city.

Re: Cardiff Swansea rivalry
I live in Bristol and struggle to understand how we even have a rivalry with them. I’ve worn my city shirt plenty of times and never had any grief. In fact I’ve seen more welsh rugby jerseys than Bristol City shirts in Bristol

We’ve had a few years of quite intense rivalry with newport in the mid to late 80’s when we went down to their level. Swansea has always been a bit of an odd town, the rivalry only became bigger with them as they rose up a bit and finally mustered some resistance to their town being over run every time we turned up like all though the 70’s and 80’s.

Spurs real rivals are chelsea , not arsenal
Uniteds main rivalry is liverpool
Man city's main rivalry is united
Liverpool's main rivalry is united
Everton's main rivalry is liverpool
