Did anyone hear Pat Nevin on FiveLive earlier?

He said the way Portsmouth has been run basically makes them cheats.

He got really heated and said that we were cheated out of an FA cup win.

Give us our cup you cheating chimey bastards and we might give you back your clock

Thanks mate, I think you well and truly fked us with that post!

Tis a point.

That's a tough place to go and play the beautiful game tbh.

Least we showed up for the second half.

We are due to give someone a fearful hammering.

I may be something of an optimist on all things city, but Newcastle lost at Scunny! We are still unbeaten this year!! Whitts extends his lead as top scorer. We are still in play off places! We are due to give someone a fearful hammering!

Grimsdale at war with the press again!

First, more pathetic journalism from the Sunday Express

CARDIFF City chairman Peter Ridsdale and manager Dave Jones have revealed a bitter battle to beat a hate mob that is campaigning to drive them out.

Ridsdale has even offered to quit as the pair continue to be targeted by an anti-English section of their supporters.

The chairman’s offer to resign was turned down by the club’s board but he revealed a catalogue of intimidation, which has seen potential investors frightened off by the climate of hate surrounding the club.

Ridsdale, who promised Cardiff could pay a £2million debt to the taxman despite a threatened winding-up order, said: “Even the local evening paper seem to have an agenda to get me out. All I’m getting is abuse – I’m under siege.

“The only thing that will make these people happy is when Dave and I go.”

He added: “I’ve never known anything like the hate here – they chant ‘Stand up if you hate the English’. To be honest, if God was the manager here he wouldn’t be good enough for some of these fans.”

The bit that tickled me was "they chant ‘Stand up if you hate the English’.".. aside being a misquote of the chant, it aint aimed at him directly anyway

followed by a response on official website...

An article in today's Express implies that I said that the agenda from some sections of the media to force me out was because I was English. We will be seeking an apology from the Express as I expressly said that this was not the case. In fact my grandparents were Welsh.
I do feel that some sections of the media have an agenda but my background has never in my opinion played any part of that. I will be seeking an apology and a retraction from Express newspapers.

I went to the game, very very lucky with the goal. Hudson should definitely have put one of his chances away, free headers six yards out one of them.

 

[Gromit]

Hmmm it's stand up if you hate 'Swansea' not 'the english' anyway. If we've ever sung that it's been very rare and at away matches to wind up the other fans. It's not hate but banter.

 

[Clint Iguana]

Mmmmmmmmmm... Chopra on bench. Time for McCormack to show us what he can do

Just saw that yeah, we can really do with a player coming into form to kick us out of this rut. We expecting a decent gate for this? I can easily see loads choosing to watch the Manchester derby instead.

 

[strung out]

good luck! here's hoping for an energy sapping draw, with you scraping through 29-28 on penalties

 

[editor]

As Eddie May would say: Nothing less then an emphatic win will do today.
