    Is anybody taking a break from football, or even walking away because of the relegation?

    I've got a lot of miles on the clock and I will always keep an interest in my local team, even if we dropped out of the football league. I actually think next season is going to be quite interesting and I am really looking forward to it

    no, in fact due to my kids sudden increased interest I'll be buying 2 or 3 more season tickets next year. so I'll be paying even more for this shite.

    Same here. Seen us play in all four divisions since the early 70s. Shame Bristol Rovers are down, looks like Exeter is our nearest trip if Reading go up.

    What and go shopping with the wife?

    Do household work

    Do garden stuff

    No you're alright - if watching football was all about results I'd be a Liverpool plastic football tourist

    I'm quite happy watching Cardiff City though players like Bacuna, El Ghazi and Kanga do push my patience

    It could be great next season, Tan needs to get this Managerial decision right, or he will lose a lot more of his cash.

    Looking farward to the Summer Break then the new Season

    I’ll be getting my first ST since pre-Covid. Living abroad and then family commitments have prevented it in recent years but I’m looking forward to next season and getting back into away trips.

    It could be a new beginning if done properly. Ipswich and Birmingham spring to mind.

    Far more excited for next season than another in the bottom half of the championship losing most of the time against the same teams year in year out.

    My wider interest in football is largely dictated by how Cardiff are doing at the time, so i've watched very little this season. I'm now looking forward to the play offs and end of season finals with us out of mind.

    I'll still pop along to the games I can get to, Ive said it on here before, it won't make much difference the league we are in to me

    Personally I think the relegation will bring me back. should be more of a chance to see some homegrown players in the side and some of the fans with over inflated ideas will probably detach themselves from the club for good, all positives in my book. I won't be getting a season ticket, because Cardiff Rugby takes firm priority for me now, but I've told the missus to expect me to be travelling for a lot of city games next year aswell

    Well, I wont be going to any more football matches until August, so I guess Im taking a break.

    I watched every home league game of the 1989-90 relegation season and are still coming back for more in 2025-26.

    We gave up our season tickets last year (thankfully). With the kids having other things going on and early kick offs making it worse (Saturday morning football), we were going to miss more than we saw. We went to quite a few games and will again but its fair to say theres nothing that makes me think it was a bad decision

    Starting a family and moving away has meant I've not been to many games at all for quite a few years, next season I'm looking forward to a membership and away games. Won't be getting a season tickets as the kids still play on a Saturday morning but I hope I'll be taking in 10 or so games on the road.

    I think it's gonna be a strange situation next year where our home games will be even emptier but our away ones will regularly sell out.

    I haven't held a ST since 2012, but have tended to do a handful of aways a season if within reasonable travel distance. Oddly, I've got a renewed interest to get to a few more aways next year - for better or worse, it feels like the old days!. In the meantime there is the end of Bundesliga and B2 seasons to be followed (though it looks less interesting than recent years). Then a football-free summer!

    I think you’re spot on.
