It's still £60 plus drink/food London prices with Carlos, granted not as expensive if your spending the day/night in London by train, which many fans are doing.

Pointless thread made by someone who is fortunate enough to have enough money to
attend any game he wants.

This shit is starting to do my head right in.

We cant all afford to go everywhere, every week, and will therefore choose our away trips to suit us
and attend grounds we haven't been to before which is exactly what is happening with Hull.

Also, Vince said the other day 1200 had been sold, not 'hundreds' as you say.

We are not selling out Hull because we've been in the same division as them for ages now, it's not a change of scenery, we haven't been to most Premier League grounds for some time, what's not to understand? I've been to Hull but never been to Fulham, luckily I'm going to Fulham, could go to Hull but I don't want to.

Not all Cardiff fans are loaded with money unlike yourself, fathers have to make priorities over spending time with kids, bills and family time etc. I think a father would rather take them to a bigger stadium such as Old Trafford and Anfield than the shit hole that is the KC Stadium.

Plus didn't Vince say we sold 1300 out of the 1500 allocation? That's not bad at all, who cares if the club have to pay for the empty blocks, least they could do is pay for our travel or something and then more would go.

So will we sell out for Man Utd, Everton and Aston Villa away and struggle at places like Hull,Norwich, Stoke and Sunderland?


Manchester United - a place we haven't been to for some time, it's a midweek game though so if we sellout I'd be very impressed that we'd take 3000 to United on a Tues/Weds

Everton - haven't been for some time, no doubt we'd sell out

Villa - cheap for travel with CCSC, some didn't go when we played in the league cup, good away day, historical ground



Hull - Been back in the Championship since 2010/2011, before they got promoted we played there quite a few times as well, people want a change of scenery

Norwich - we were in the same division with them until they got relegated, they charge silly prices for even the smaller clubs, their prices in the Championship were disgusting so i can't imagine what it'd be in the Premier League?

Sunderland - We have them and Newcastle in the space of a week if I'm not mistaken, people will decide which one they want to go to and I think more will edge for Newcastle away as they're the bigger club and it's a better away day, but we played against them quite a few times with them in the Championship. Newcastle was a Friday so more people wanna go to that.


There, questions answered. People want to see newer grounds and are allowed to choose which game they can go to, as long as you go to the games I don't see why it matters if there's 200 of you or 2000 of you, too many people mock low away followings but never give respect to the people who made the trip.

Annis, i am planning to do half the away games this season due to funds, which i think is pretty good considering some fans unfortunately might not able to do make one. I've been to Hull several times so in September i'm planning to do Norwich as i haven't been there before, in fact i'm trying to plan an away trip roughly once a month and i still think not's not too bad. Perhaps Cardiff City should follow Stoke's idea of paying away travel fare for the fans this season, this would almost reduce the cost of a fan's day trip by half then i feel sure Every away game would would be sold out !

I did, I don't see why it matters whatever way I funded my away trips, I went and that's all that matters. Your obsession with me is somewhat disturbing :?
