You are telling me that lots of people in Cardiff wear Cardiff City tops ?Originally Posted by delmbox
Maybe on matchday when fans from all over South wales are there but not in the way they do in Swansea, there is a very strong link between Swansea the football club and it's population , mostly because of top flight football and an active community programme
Cardiff City just expect people to support them
The percentage of Swanseas population who watch them is far higher than Cardiff
I'm saying I live in Cardiff and I see loads of people wearing Cardiff tops. I live closeish to the stadium though so that might have a bearing, where do you live?
I don't live in Cardiff
I am there all the time though
Even down the bay in the summer you see more man United and Liverpool tops than Cardiff
It simply isn't a city where the population gets behind its football team like they do in Derby, Forest , Sheffield , Portsmouth and even Swansea
Cardiff is a city where there is a lot more going in than most of those shitholes you mention.
Sludge, I was like you once, convinced we would never average more than 25,000 if we became an established Premier League club, but our average gate in 18/19. when we were in the top ten in the country, proved me wrong. I used to call the Ninian Stand extension "Tan's folly", but our last season in the Premier League proved that there was a need for it. While Cardiff will never be a hotbed of football support for the club that represents it, things have moved on since your formed your opinions.
Encouraging and pleasing thing in work this morning, the bloke doing the dry lining had his two young lads with him, about 13 & 14, one had a City top on (which pleased me no end). They were helping dropping plaster boards off. I wasn’t aware that one of the lads, bloke in his 30s, doing the boarding was a ahem ‘Liverpool’ fan, the youngsters knew though and the one in the City top shouted ‘Liverpool wanker’ at him as they were leaving
Their father obviously taught them well.Encouraging and pleasing thing in work this morning, the bloke doing the dry lining had his two young lads with him, about 13 & 14, one had a City top on (which pleased me no end).
