Newcastle may be smaller by size because of the amount of parks in Cardiff.Quote:

Funny how Wiki becomes credible when it suits your argument. You melt.Quote:

You think that cardiff doesn't have a significant carribean communityQuote:

Sorry to piss on your chips again sludge but doesn’t cardiff have more park land per sq ft than most cities in the uk? Just look at the castle grounds for starters….Quote:

No , you have pissed on your own slippersQuote:

There are 76 cities in the UK, if what you're saying is correct (11) then Goats is factually correct as that means there are 65 cities with less park land than Cardiff.Quote:

I mean you do know these are the main reasons , long before the fergie years , that United got support all over the country ?

What you’re now saying is Man United’s support although not all local have stuck by them over a period of 60 years?
You can see how your opinion can be interpreted as confusing?
I think you are in a squash court will the ball bouncing aroundQuote:

Even in the seventies coaches of the brain dead would go to old Trafford and anfield with a whole host of reasons , Munich Air crash , my father watched them win the 1968 European Cup on the TV so I do , Liverpool were always winning the league when I was a kid so we all supported them etc etc
United always had a bigger support than Liverpool but its all the same sort of hanging on
These people are ridiculed and rightly so by the vast majority of football fans in the UK on social media you seem to be ok with it that's entirely up to you the people I know who support cardiff ...or Swansea.....think the same
Maybe it's you who are odd
That’s what I was referring to other day, I’m on that lost grounds group on fb too….average champ about 10k, PL about 25/30 thenQuote:

Chill and relax butt. Life’s too short.
I have no interest in anything these sad acts from pontypridd who walk around in Liverpool tops on holiday have to say unless it is .....I have never been to watch Cardiff .....would I be welcome ?Quote:

People from London who support Cardiff are either from South Wales or sons of taffy folk who moved there, that sort of thing
The same scenario cannot be said of the tens and thousands of fake scousers in South Wales
I don't want to chat to these sort of people at a party or in the pub about football ? Going on and on about VAR decisions against Liverpool a day after my team have clearly been wronged ?
20 miles from Cardiff and they are talking about the reds ?
Feck em
I will go and talk to the pool table
Glory supporters are a joke. They deserve ridicule
Very interesting figures. From a City perspective, that crowd, against attractive opposition near the top of the table is less than half of what they’d have expected four years earlier. The fact that we’d been struggling against relegation for all of the intervening period had a lot to do with that, but it was a tough time economically and attendances were on a decline which was not arrested for about ten years.Quote:

I’m more worried that I recognise the name of nigh on every goalscorer, if you gave me last Saturday’s equivalent I’d know NG & Colwill and most probably struggle with the rest :hehe:
I see David Tong scored two, that's probably forty per cent of his career goals in one game :hehe:Quote:
