The population of Cardiff had to go up when you consider what was needed to meet the target set to turn the A4119 and certain areas Of Cardiff west into Wales largest continuous traffic jam.
With a city population that’s probably now close to 370,000, (2022 estimates ),and around 1m catchment then we as a football club really should be shifting 16/18,000 season tickets ?Quote:

Population change in certain areas may reflect how the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic affected people's choice of usual residence on Census Day, for example, students
Bloody hell if Bale and Ramsey had signed it would be 362,400 plus thier families , so near and yet so far ??
According to that Census, conducted in March 2021, the UK population stood at 30k short of 67 million.
the Wales population is forecast to be still 3.3 million in 2045,
Scotland will have declined slightly to 5.4 million and Northern Ireland unchanged at 1.9 (I expect it'll be part of a united Ireland by then though)
England is forecast to rise a bit over that period, but a lot flatter than previously.
the age of rapid population growth is probably already behind us.
Wales population will probably decline even further if it becomes independent, but that’s another debate entirely.Quote:
