I first went in the mid to late seventies,a couple of times with my grandfather I think? Then I didn't follow football for a bit. Then my uncle started taking me to the vetch and I became a big Swansea fan.
I then went on my own path of basketball and karate. Then wife and kids came along, and my boys started playing football, and I decided to take them to watch Cardiff in 2007. Now my wife and my youngest son and my daughter and also myself are season ticket holders for the last 4 years. My oldest son goes now and again with his mates.


As you can see I had a terrible up-bringing being taken down the vetch by my uncle , to get from under my mothers feet.
Obviously now I am older i have seen the light and I am an avid bluebird fan.

1993 vs Gillingham if I remember correctly? It might even have been 1992. My memory is terrible.
