Cardiff City 2009-2010 season

What odds was that at?

I met a guy who predicted the 4-0 win in a dream (in the half time food queue).
He didn't put any money on it. Bet he was gutted, whilst being thrilled at the same time.

85/1. The other prices were small, 4/5's and 15/8's and the like so i only picked up £55. But better than a kick in the teeth! And we're top of the league! :D:D
 
Only just got back from Plymouth. Great result, but not as one sided as the scoreline suggestes. First 20 minutes of the second half i think they had the better of us and i do wish Chopra would not walk up to penalties.

My daughters first away game, she be hooked me thinks. She loved the bit where the stadium PA blasted out music to celebrate their goal and we made more noise singing and dancing than the home fans. Also loved the inevitable "Just a cheap TV advert!"

This was in the Plymouth local paper yesterday... gave me a chuckle before i came home. They are hoping to host the world cup at home park!
 
Dave Jones will be in Wellfield Bookshop on Wellfield Rd, Roath between 1 and 2.30pm today signing copies of his autobiography. Might take a walk down.
 

He could be a brillaint signing. man City, the richest club in the world,wouldn't let him go til he signed a new contract. With all the players they have at their disposal and they want him back!!! Pompey and Wolves were duking it out for his signature and we have nicked him. He is a Prem player in the making and I think DJ may well have hit another nugget in that little goldmine of his where he hues out of solid rock players that you have never heard of who are world beaters, atleast at Fizzy pop level!!

My prediction 12 goals.
 
Nice signing but whose place is he going to take?

Chopra's?
Bothroyd's?
MacCormack's? (which is already being filled)
Burke's?
Wittingham?

Good signing but not in an area we are currently weak at. When oh when will we get some cover for centre mid?
 
Thoroughly cracking afternoon. Not only did we win, but we won in style. Brizle had a few moments, but on the whole we were in charge all day. Burke was excellent and man of the match in my books.

It does not get any better than this (so i am making the most of it while it lasts!). I cant see us staying top all season, but it is going to take some team to beat us at the moment.
 
NEW CANTON COMPARED TO OLD GRANGE END:

  • Better view
  • Less crushed
  • Can’t mingle quite as well
  • Still able to stand up
  • Shorter queues at bar
  • No queue for toilets
  • Not quite as good an atmosphere as Grange, but pretty damn loud anyway.
  • Have to get a pass to go outside the stadium for a 'smoke' at half time.
  • Don’t get to see the whites of the eyes of the opposition fans (actually, rarely saw them on grange end, all I saw was the back of Burberry baseball caps work by our ‘yoof’… but you knew they were there somewhere!)

Prefer Ninian, but i think i can live with this new ground ;)
 
Another great afternoon. I like this stadium! Great football and great atmosphere.

Just saw Chops' celebration on TV. Classic :D

Absolutely. That was as good a footballing display as I have ever seen from Cardiff. It was almost boring in the second half.

Just one point, how the fuck was Burke not everybody's MOM. The guy was without doubt the best footballer on the field today. FACT
 
Burke was my man of the match but thats Sky for you.

Could be worse, i remember Wales decimating england at rugby and the presenter giving MOM to an english player in what was an utter mockery.
 
I know its only 4 games in, but we have played Bristol City, which in my mind was the first indicator of the season. How good are we this year?
A new back 4, not much happening in midfield, apart from the fact that Rae, Whitts and McFailure seem to have discoivered some form and its like having new players. Chops on fire aftre his heal injury recovery. Atelast 4 players i njured who will be pushing for first 11 places and a signing from Man City who could be gold. So waht u reckon folks, I am feeling very good about things, but accept as a cardiff fan that these things never go to plan. Are we fighting above our weight or could this really be our year?

Great start but I'll only get carried away in May 2010 ;)
 
Outstanding team performance from Cardiff - they look twice the side they were last season. Bristol City had played some really nice stuff so far this season, yet today Cardiff made them look shite.

Keep up that level of performance and you will finish top 2, seriously.
 
Terrific result today - I was whooping in a festie field in Devon when the final score came in.

We're looking *hot*!
 
Yes yes we know :) City's reserves will beat Rovers 3-1. Probably. Anyway it's ONLY the league cup :D

Didn't we only play one reserve in the first cup match? Can't imagine that we will use many this time either.

Oh and that reserve was subbed on and went onto score.

I guess Etuhu will get a full game on wed instead of the "weakest link" as jay Bothroyd is now known in my circle. Adam M will obviously get a full game and maybe Gypes will even manage to get a game! Things are looking up, our weak squad is uncovering talent we didnt know we had, I'm excited!
