Your excuse why only a couple of hundred came to Elland rd, restrictions to costly.

We had bigger attendances than you last season. Tosser. :lol:

leeds are a massive club compared to you you header and thats the truth
and i dont like leeds myself but have every club in the land would agree on that :thumbup:


There's no mention of him saying we are bigger than Leeds, we aren't. He states quite correctly that
our attendances last season were bigger than Leeds'. In twenty years time, if Cardiff stay in the Premier
League and Leeds continue to slump. Would you agree that Cardiff City may be playing in front of 40,000
every other week and Leeds playing in front of maybe 15,000 if they're lucky? THAT being the case, there
could well be an argument that Cardiff City have the potential to be a bigger Club than Leeds in years to
come. Swansea City, however will still be playing in front of 20,000 in their third season as a Premiership
Club. Simply because they know they are pretty severely capped as to the extent of the support out West.
Swansea has an area (Neath/Port Talbot) with a population of over 150,000 yet Swansea City cannot even
claim those areas to be ''Swansea City towns" - So swansea will never really get much bigger than you are
right now - and you all know it.

ps. Yes you've been the ''best'' Club in Wales for the last few seasons. You can have that one. Your welcome.

Wtf are you talking about :oops: Swansea is a bigger club than cardiff, you couldn't even sellout your playoff games against reading and west ham, and are struggling to sell your tickets for your first ever PL game :oops: As for neath and port talbot have you been there recently hardly ever see any cardiff tops almost all jack tops, even in brigend there are now loads of swans fans, and dont compare cardiff to leeds if leeds had the same season as cardiff had last season they would of been getting close on 40000, where you only sold out once or twice towards the end of the season :oops: you dont half talk sh*te :lol:

Swansea's away support has been just as good as cardiff's if not better, all the excuses are coming out now :laughing6: bubble matches, your not the only club to have bubble matches swansea have had them with you bristol city bristol rovers and still filled the away end at those clubs, including over 30 coaches for the game at rovers in div one :malky: so just face facts cardiff is not a big club, if you were you would of sold all 3000 tickets for west hame in one day :thumbright:

If you think Swansea are bigger than Cardiff then you are seriously deluded. :lol:

We have a whole month to sell out our West Ham allocation so come back next month with that one. We can mention MANY games you haven't sold out away. The reason you sell out every home game is because you have a small stadium, only small clubs have small stadiums. We have 6000 more seats than you and we will sell out every home game this season easily, and we will again when we expand to 32,500 the season after, that's 12,500 more than you. :thumbup:

Swansea bigger than Cardiff. :laughing6:

By the time you get to 32500 the liberty would of been expanded too so you will not have 12000 more will you.

2012-2013 Avg. Attendence; Cardiff = 22,998, Swansea = 20,370
2010-2011 Avg. Attendance (last time at same level) Cardiff = 22,091, Swansea 15,507
Total seasons in top-flight; Cardiff = 15, Swansea = 4
Highest ever league finish; Cardiff = 2nd, Swansea = 6th
Current League position; Swansea = 9th, Cardiff = 21st
FA Cups; Cardiff = 1, Swansea = 0
League Cups; Cardiff = 0, Swansea = 1
Welsh Cups; Cardiff = 22, Swansea = 10

Looks like we take 7 of 9.

Current number 1 club in Wales? No.
Wales' all-time most successful club? Yes.
Biggest club in Wales (past and present)? Yes.

Re: So what's the excuse this time?

Thu Jul 18, 2013 6:26 pm

I'll be honest I can't stand Leeds nobody can.....BUT...
The rat has a point I agree with what's been said the rebrand and restrictions plus having to have gone to more than 3 away games to qualify, but if we don't sell our allocation then it is nothing more than embarrassing, just hope we do coz I'm fed up of being laughed at as it is!!
