Got the result right. He’s not happy.

He needs to wash his mouth out with soap!
He needs to give the team talk on Saturday
He does. Watching Cardiff City can drive anyone to profanity, and worse, but that podcast seems to consist of him switching between 'f*ck off' and f*cking hell', which might neatly summarise our season but doesn't make for an engaging podcast.
Quite.
I was appalled when he used the f word almost straight away. Time to switch off.
I have to say I have no issue with swearing and I quite like the power of the words when used well.
But I found it weirdly unsavoury. I wouldn't be happy with my kid doing that and I don't mind my kids (who are younger) swearing but I wouldn't be happy with it in the public sphere like that.
Anyway, grandad rant over, I'm sure he's a good kid!
My old man would have slapped me up if i'd spoken like that in front of him.
I never, ever, swore in front of my parents, even when I was in adulthood. Likewise, my parents didn't swear in front of me and my sister.
I worked in a steelworks for more than 25 years. We all swore like troopers, however, we knew when to turn off the profanities like a tap.
My son is seventeen, he has never swore in front of me or his mother.
This kid's a real potty mouth
I enjoyed a couple initially but since he has had good feedback, especially after the Leeds game away, I think it's gone to his head a bit. He seems to be swearing for swearing sake.
That said, it's no wonder the kids are using it in frontof their elders, the "F" word is now commonplace on the telly, socials etc whereas back in the day you'd rarely hear it, only in the odd film.
I've also heard that swearing at teachers goes unpunished these days too.
The "C" word however I think he has stayed away from... thus far
It's not just the swearing (which is awful to see from such a young boy) it's the attempted "Kairdiff" accent he's tying to use 🤦*♂️
It's funny how a few of us have been triggered by it. I'm surprised at myself really and as I say, my kids swear in front of me, but it's about context for me.
Nobody is triggered Jim.
Do you actually enjoy these vlogs from children just randomly swearing?
Fair play if you do but 2 seconds was enough for me.
Yes.

He's hilarious
That's the thing, if you cant say the **** word you're just a little pussyThe "C" word however I think he has stayed away from... thus far
Must say that, for the first time, the swearing sounded contrived to me in that one. I doubt very much that he's in the habit of looking at messageboards, but, maybe, someone's told him his vlogs are being discussed on one and he's had a look, saw that his swearing attracts most comments and is now laying it on thicker.https://youtu.be/G6b6g2MtifQ?si=L1PlcQl-V55Bvsqk

It has to be said that his dad is stood next to him at all of the City matches and doesn't seem to have a problem with it. I was brought up not to swear and I dread to think what my father would have done to me if I had started using that sort of language at a game he had taken my too. However, if I'd found that he was allowing me to eff and blind with the best of them while watching City, I would have just kept on swearing more and more frequently.
As it is, my parents realised that telling me off for swearing was harder to sustain as I got older with the result that, although I don't think I swear as much as your average person, I've done my fair share of it since I was about fifteen and can I ask if any of those in this thread getting all fuddyduddyish about the language in the videos do not swear themselves? If you don't, then fair play to you, and your reservatons have some validity to them.
As to the videos, I like them because he knows the game pretty well for someone of that age in my opinion and I like that if City are away and he hasn't gone to the game, he'll go to watch Newport play or watch a non league game and do a vlog - I look at him and think, if the technology had been around back in the 70s, that could have been me making the videos, minus the swearing of course!
Swearing just wasn’t a thing in our house, my Dad never swore at home and Mam only had ‘ya flipping flamer or ya divil’ when having a go at me our my brother. One day is always fresh in my mind re.swearing in the house though. My elder brother very often called me a little punk, I was perhaps about 7 when the incident happened. I was at the bottom of the stairs, Mam was in the kitchen, down the passage with the door open, in my full view, my brother was upstairs. I certainly got the word ‘punk’ wrong when I shouted up the stairs to him, “Where’s my socks ya c*nt?”. Mam’s legs gave way, my brother came to the top of the stairs open mouthed. I think we had to give her gas & air, she was absolutely trembling.
Needless to say I was marched to confession the next Saturday dinner time. Funny how things stick in your head, this one has because swearing just didn’t happen in our house.
Me & the Mrs often comment now that we wouldn’t be able to watch the telly nowadays in both our Mam’s company, we’d be squirming with the way things have gone.
It’s daft really, but Ive can’t have used that word more than about five times in my life - for some reason, it’s still off limits with me.
We all swear to varying degrees, for me it would mostly be in stressful situations or around mates that do, who for some it's every other word.
I don't know, I just think he ruins an otherwise decent vlog with it, it's mostly unnecessary, particularly for a kid.
If it's when we concede I get it, but talking about the coach or a pie, wtf is that all about?
