Th club apologised on Twitter for it. Said it's an email sent out to all 92 clubs and they forward it automatically. They did not have knowledge of it and are investigating it.

I never got it so they must have stopped it somehow.

And Wales are playing their most important game for years this week.

Just shows how professional our staff are.

I have to admit, I was once a member and some City fans were annoyed,but now our club is telling fans to join,you could not make it up :lol:

John Coleman Not our club, Tan's club. Hopefully, we'll have it back soon. I can't imagine the FAW will be too impressed by this latest stunt, either. Ridiculous.

Wish people who stop completely ignoring the club have said about it not being their fault, in that it's the FA's fault :lol: You know, we are part of the English league system, It's a mistake, the club noticed, it's being sorted!

Ohh yeah, I forgot, the club can never get anything right and it's always their fault, even though it's a mistake they never made :lol:

To be fair, we are playing in the English system. It's an easy mistake to forget that a very very small number of Welsh teams play in it. I'm certainly not offended. :thumbright:

I wonder if fans of Wrexham, Newport and Swansea recieved a similar mail??? My guess: No!!

In a way, it's funny. However, I will certainly not be subscribing. :lol:

Certainly not!! I was just wondering if the other Welsh clubs' admin would let it slip through. To be honest, I find it quite funny too. most of our players aren't Welsh so in a way, we already support the English system. :lol:

To be honest if we weren't in the English system I probably wouldn't follow Cardiff, the Welsh top division is probably up there with one of the worst football leagues in the world in all aspects. There's literally nothing exciting about it other than the possibility of qualifying for Europe.

I thought I was seeing things when I had this email yesterday, nothing supprises me with the club anymore with its constant f**k ups. One thing after another at the circus I suppose :laughing5:

If this kind of amateurism is not happening at the other Welsh clubs in the English leagues, but to us, ask yourself why

The club can't do anything right according to some. No wonder there is so much negativity and fans feel so detached.

Had an email today saying that it weren't sent by City, Newport fans got it as well. If you've signed up for email alerts from any club that play in the Football League system you'd get the email. Though they did point out in future they'd make sure Cardiff City and Newport County fans don't receive the email as they majority of supporters are Welsh
