Whilst not born in Cardiff, my older lad dreams of playing for Cardiff City and leading them to glory one day, so he might be considered an honorary Caaardiff. He considers himself Welsh and wouldn’t have it any other way!
It’s true that the club seems to be behind the others in unearthing talent, though. I’m afraid that this is just another reason why we need change at the top.
