I read that article in the SW Echo last night, but it was a load of nonsense. There was no way the club would be allowed to move the game so the whole thing was a waste of ink.

the only way they could move it would be for safety reasons

Seems he could do the job, not sure about his £14,000 p/w wage though.

Daily Record news at bottom.

ive seen quite a bit of him from my time up in scotland, he is a good player when fit. hopeully he stays fit with us so we can see for ourselves.

champions league experience and a scotland international too, good bit of business in my eyes.

Hoping your right, especially since it now seems we didn't pay zilch for him. Here's to an injury free future for Burke, we can't afford another Robbie Fowler.

the same was said for Rae about the injuries and he's been fine so far touch wood. they did a thorough medical on him

just need to get Ledley to sign a new deal now
 
Dave Jones' ice cold reception for new boy Clough.

Clough's players frozen out of the game by Cardiff.

Oh well. At least I found out before leaving Ponty for the match.
Cheers for the heads up Clint.
Though did get fans that sit near me phoning me in the bath to ask what I knew. The rumour mill is fast.
 
burnley v swansea...... with burnely only one point behind us, is this one occasion when we hope the jacks win?

Gutted. Was looking forward to a stomp around on the Bob Bank.

A great philosopher once wrote about postponements......

To a man who lives and breathes football, a soccerless Saturday is like an asthma attack.

:(
 
Sure let Swansea win if it helps us.

I'm not one to cut my own nose off to spite my face as the old saying goes.

I think it would be really sad if you'd be happy at the end of the season to have narrowly missed out on promotion rather than have a rival welsh team win 3 points.

Yes, this exactly. I support Cardiff City but would like Swansea to do well too. Why not eh?
 
Swansea in the same division but doing consistently badly is the optimum level i'd like them to achieve. We get to play, beat and gloat over them twice a season. Not sure i'd like the Jacks to follow us into the Premier League though. At least not till we're established.
 
It would be fantastic having two Welsh teams in the premiership. The rivalry would be great (not the violence though). The Swans have to do their time in The Championship, as we have done and then can follow us up, I quite agree.

Why just this one?

I always want them to win when they are playing anyone who is a threat to us, and as long as thye dont get in front of us I dont really care how well they do,but would like them to stay in Championship.

Good letter in yesterday's Echo about Ninian Park. To be honest, I wish we weren't moving. It was bad enough when they demolished the old Grange End. Sentimental I know, but football's about sentiment innit.

Excellent letter. Those that wanted the game to be in the millenium completely miss the point. Yes we whould have a bigger crowd, but how many of those would be going to watch city? Half the crowd would be there just for the arsenal.

I too will be sad to see the old girl come down, I actually like the fact that it is a ramshackle old cowshed. It is going to be IMPOSSIBLE to come anywhere near recreating the atmosphere at Ninian. Watching cardiff city has always been about more than just the football, it is the whole event, the pre-match, post match, the lot. Football should be watched standing up, you really cannot get the same vibe sat down in a library, you might as well watch it on the telly in the house.
