Myself and my brother have season tickets and we were both not there. I have had a cold this week and combined with the train strike and the recent poor performances decided not to go. Both of us...

Just watched the 'highlights' on Sky and that must be one of the softest penalties ever. There seemed to be the faintest of touches in the back from Goutas - who had given the ball away in the first...

Italy chose blue shirts because blue is the colour of the House of Savoy - the Italian royal family. The nickname for the Italians is the Azzurri or the Blues.

The Dutch play in orange because the...

I have always thought that the blue for England's shorts came from the Union Jack and of course the blue part of the Union Jack is from the Scottish flag.

It would be interesting to see the effect if a team had shirts that ripped at the slightest contact. It would make it obvious as to who was having his shirt pulled.

This has been going on for years and I have never understood why it is not classed as obstruction.

What a pitch. That was a proper Ninian Park pitch. It seemed to be like that for most of the 70s.

Wrexham Welsh Cup at home on 29 February 1956. 5-3 to Cardiff

I think that is it.

And another Huddersfield away 29 February 1964. 2-1 to Huddersfield.

Burnley Home 29 February 1992 in Division 4. 2-0 to Burnley and a crowd of 16,030

The away game in Nantes was midweek (4 November) after the Hull game (31 October) and before the QPR game (7 November). The Nantes game was won 2-1 with goals from Toshack (12) and Brian Clark (76)....

Sheffield United away in 1971. 5-1 defeat which ended the promotion challenge to Division 1.

Agree I thought the same that he was much better until Preston scored. Has he been carrying an injury - he was out for a while and maybe he has not fully recovered.

Same scoreline but the opposite way round this time. An amazing coincidence as well is that Cardiff were 13th in the Second Division going into the game both times. Only 12,897 there in 1968 compared...

56 years to the day since Brian Clark made his home debut in a 2-0 win over Preston (10 February 1968), scoring in 9 minutes - John Toshack scored the other after 88. Also the first game I attended....

There are some brilliant stories on there. One I liked this week was a guy who catches a bus from south London to central London every day. The journey is of the order of an hour, on a double decker,...

At times yesterday it was if many of them had never met before. Passes into space and the intended recipient had not moved. No one moves for throw ins - how many times do Cardiff have a throw in...

It was in the Club News

I saw it advertised yesterday. Can't find where but it was in some news feeds.

A lot of players do that now. It is reckoned that they do it to remove pressure on the calves.

Start of the run which led to losing to Everton at home in the fifth round. Fourth round was the famous 3-2 win over Wrexham. Billy Ashcroft equalised in the 89th minute and John Buchanan scored the...

Petition to strip Paula Vennells of her DBE has reached nearly 40000. It was on 15000 when I signed this morning. https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/strip-paula-vennells-of-her-cbe

Almost the first time Cardiff had an attack at pace Harry Winks pulled the Cardiff player back (Grant I think). This was just inside the Cardiff half. I was surprised that Winks was not booked....

Brian Flynn against the Jocks at Ninian Park in 1975 in the 2-2 draw. It was shown for years afterwards. I think the Jocks were about the loudest crowd I have ever heard that day.

Bowler looks as if he is carrying an injury to me. I always find it interesting when players who have finished playing, reveal just how much of their careers they were playing with injuries.
