Cardiff has the 11th largest population in the UK. 2 of the cities above us are in Scotland so we're the 9th largest city in the pyramid.

Brighton, Burnley, Leicester, Newcastle, Southampton, West Bromwich & Wolverhampton all have smaller populations than Cardiff and all have Premier League teams

I think NYCBlue is right in that you have a somewhat skewed view of modern Cardiff City. We've not finished below 12th in the Championship for over a decade, reached the Premier League twice and both domestic cup finals. We have modern facilities and a modern stadium in a great city which is still growing. This is a club that is capable of more than a team of workhorses
