when did you start following cardiff city?

Mid fifties for me and even with our brief sojourn in division one this is without a doubt the most exciting of times to be a Bluebird.
The fear of financial meltdown year after year has been replaced by the tingling uncertainty of what the future holds.
I am proud of the owners, management team, players and fans who have made this possible and grateful that after so many years I can enjoy our moment sitting at footballs highest table.

my first game was cardiff city vs exeter monday 1st january 2001 division 3!

i started following them properly tho and got my first season ticket in 2002/2003 the season we got promoted into the championship!

so been supporting them just over 10 years I'm 22 so nearly half of my life and now i couldn't be a weekend without!!

when did you start supporting the bluebirds?

Ironically when I moved to Bristol . Used to go as Brizzle blue when first started using mikes board around 2001. Watched a few games here and there in early / mid teens but the first season I properly started following was 1998 when I had my first regular disposable income . I thank you student loans company .

1961 for me against Arsenal 1-1.
Welsh greats Jack Kelsey and Mel Charles were playing for Arsenal

I can't remember my first game as I was a toddler but remember being mascot against Ipswich when they were a top side in fa cup in 1983 when I was 6/7 and had been going down few seasons before that. After over 30 years following city and being ridiculed by all plastic premier league club fans in south wales it's amazing to think we are almost in the top flight!

My dad took me to a wales game at ninian park back in the seventies was in awe at the athmosphere and the Cardiff fans hooked instantly and supported Cardiff all my life wife and two children city fanatics as well

I first got the City bug at the magic age of 5, it was 1953 we were in the old first division we were playing Arsenal but I can't remember the score. I was safe in the boys enclosure in the Grange end. Best memories are thrashing Liverpool before the arrival of the mighty Shanks and beating Real Madrid in the Cup winnerscup

Dec 1978 Sunderland at home
there was thousands of Sundeland there
i spent most og the game just looking around the big stands and thinking Wow. I was hooked
Bloooobirdssssss

Away in Rochdale on a wet Tuesday night

no it was 14th feb 1976 Gillingham in the old 3rd division we won 4-1

69/70 Season for me

1979

1974 v Bolton home. 1-0 win, with Gil Reece scoring. First ever away game was a 3-0 FA Cup defeat to. Swindon. Can't remember the year, but Swindon were our bogey side for many a year (especially at the County Ground).

1969 me

1992/93 V Measteg Park in the Welsh Cup at Ninian Park, we wore our away Red kit at home that day won 4-0 I think..also went up as Champions...what a plastic I turned out to be! 20 Years later and I still bloody love this club even if it has aged me terribly!

Cardiff v Birmingham, the game where they ripped out the seats! I think 2005? I'm 17 so half of my life I've been supporting this beautiful club

First game was Wolves in 1987 but didnt start going home and away properly until 1999
