Custom jersey, stadium tour, photo shoot, all ready to go at CCS! So my fellow Bluebirds meet me on my journey around the UK! I really really wish I could go to the Carling Cup final but don't know how to acquire tickets to the game and don't know where I'd stay or what I'd do for a whole week until Liverpool v Arsenal and Cardiff City v West Ham. Its gutting to know my dream match will happen and I'll miss it but I'll be there in spirit! Here's my two newest videos on the Final and my RexTheYank Tour 2012!!!

Your a Liverpool fan and our club are being daft here, they should look after their own fans.

Another one jumping on the band wagon, I suppose the club are getting you a ticket ?
I can find out.

I'm pretty sure Rex has made Cardiff videos for a few seasons (I think) he's been a city fan for a couple of years (I think). So Rex is a Cardiff fan aswell as a Liverpool fan.

Anyway, along as he preaches the good word about Cardiff in the states then I don't care :D

Re: Cardiff City embrace RexTheYank! Welcome him at CCS!

Sun Jan 29, 2012 12:33 pm

Yeah ive seen him on a few of his videos he is a Cardiff fan and a Liverpool fan

Re: Cardiff City embrace RexTheYank! Welcome him at CCS!

Sun Jan 29, 2012 12:41 pm

He has been a City fan for a few years that I can remember.

Who cares anyway really. New fans and old should all be welcomed. :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I think it's entirely understandable that someone from another continent would follow two teams

Especially when one of those teams would rarely be televised over there (us)

I've been following Cardiff since 2007, and began to make tons of Cardiff video's under my Youtube channel which was later deleted due to name issues, but all I could manage was rounding up results. Could never inform anyone of transfer news or day to day talk because quite simply, I get no Cardiff news besides a few fanpages on Facebook and friends. I stopped the videos because I was so out of the loop. I pay $30 a month to get the rare opportunity to watch Cardiff on tv, other than that I'm forced to live streams on my computer. I don't think a trip to Wembley erases my 4 and a half years of being a fan does it? And I've had this trip planned since July 2011 and have been working my ass off to save for it. If it wasn't for the club getting involved I would be going to Liverpool - Arsenal and Brighton - Cardiff but everyone's done me massive convincing to rearrange my plans just to experience CCS. Mind you Wimbley only became on actuality just last week. Kinda funny how I go from an American fan who loves 2 teams equally, to an American plastic. Awesome. :cry:

Re: Cardiff City embrace RexTheYank! Welcome him at CCS!

Sun Jan 29, 2012 2:43 pm

Don't listen to the haters Rex, you have EVERY RIGHT to go to the match, why would an American who's supported Cardiff before our first ever trip to Wembley start supporting us only for the good times, some people just panic when Wembley comes.

Ignore them Rex, it's clear in your videos that you support the bluebirds through thick and thin, and every single day since you found out about Cardiff City you have been supporting them with the same amount of passion, 100%, win or lose youve still followed. A plastic is someone who simply decides to follow Cardiff more when the good times come along, this is simply not what you are.

You deserve to be here, I hope your heart problems are all good, I hope you have the trip of your life, and I'm sure 99.9% of the city of Cardiff and surrounding areas will welcomes you as one of their own!

Oh dear Annis.

This guy has been a legend on Youtube supporting both Cardiff and Liverpool. He lives in Oklahoma USA so its a bit difficult getting to a game.

Think you are being a bit harsh here.

He is from the USA. He is making the effort to come over for the West Ham home game and the Brighton away. Thats quite a lot of money with flights etc. I think its great that the club are showing their delight in Rex' support by offering him some special treatment.

Dok Ccfc Jay from Maryland came over for a match last season but I don't recall him getting any special treatment and he is a passionate City fan. A few on here are friends with him on facebook.

To be fair, Dok is only on Facebook. Rex posts his YouTube videos all over the place so is about to get more interest in him. Cardiff are not exactly going to not ask Rex just because they didn't ask the other American. Two wrongs don't make a right.
