what will make you come back?????

For me it was the disrespect shown by Mr Tan in so many of his decisions and ok credit to him for undoing the wrongs,but I must question someone who owns three other football clubs as well as mine and doesn't show up to any of the games,but I think the main reason for me is when the so called promised land of the Premier league finally arrived it was just not worth the wait.

Atmosphere is total rubbish in these all seater stadiums. One of the pulls for me was the atmosphere at Ninian Park in the 80s.
Tickets are definitely overpriced especially when there are billions of pounds being pumped into football but nothing coming back to the fans.
Most season ticket holders miss a few games per season so there are no perks now to being a season ticket holder. You could just turn up on the day and save money over the season and sit where you want.
Its the atmosphere and pricing for me.

I agree the atmosphere hasn't been good at City games but I don't think you can blame the stadium , it's been rocking in there for Wales games and the Super Cup Final . It's the fans not making the atmosphere at City , I think if we played more attacking football than defensive football

These are important points. You simply can't blame the stadium when there have been times when the CCS atmosphere has surpassed the Ninian Park experience.

Were you there for Leicester when we held out for a win with 10 men ? What about Chops 2 against the Jacks, Man City, Forest in the promotion year, Charlton,etc in promotion year, and I could go on.

If the atmosphere can be good on those occasions then it clearly can't be the fault of the stadium when it's poor. Atmosphere is, and will always, be down to the fans who are there.

Yes, I went to all those games and they were amazing atmospheres. Ninian Park bob bank was different as you could stand where u wanted and then move to the singing area in the bob bank. Having seats have put paid to that. Apart from those games you mention the ground has been dire.

I am glad the internet wasn't around in the late 80's when we were in the dungeon and I shirked off to play parks football all through my 20's.

Fans come and go. We have always had a big floating support. I do that with the blues, I have friends that go down the arms park and if its a biggie they may get me a ticket (although i haven't been since they left the stadium).

A winning team, a bit of a buzz around the place and they will return. We are not as big as some think.

Yes went to those games and u r correct. But the majority of our games have been terrible for atmosphere.
Fans want the atmosphere when they go to football games but unfortunately we don't have terracing anymore.
We have been at our new stadium now for years yet fans can only select an handful of games where the atmosphere has been electric.

My first Cardiff game was when I was 4 and my older brother took me down, I was probably then taken down 3/4 times a season until I was around 13.

I was then 'allowed' to go with my mates and we all bought season tickets and then the away games came along when I was 16 and from the age 16-20 I was going home and away on a regular basis.

I'm now 22 but it got to the point when I was 20 that I decided I needed to stop spending all my money following Cardiff and needed to experience other things in life. In a way, I feel like I 'grew out' of following Cardiff.

I'm still a Cardiff Supporter and Cardiff will always mean a lot to me and I will be regular again in the future, I'm thinking probably when I have kids of my own and then it'll be a regular family day out!

But right now, I don't think there's anything that could convince me to come back as I'm enjoying the break!

£2 a pint! Up the revolution!

Standing up, cheap tickets, less of the 'make some noise' crap, players on sensible wages, less foreigners...basically everything that the modern game is about.

Thats me fecked....started watching the parks, more enjoyable.

that's gone now as Ali is no longer the announcer

None of his points are valid, you can stand all game in the Canton no hassle, tickets are well priced for championship level, most of the team are on sensible wages bar 1 or 2 exceptions and 8 of the starting 11 v huddersfield were from the UK/Ireland.

I just love reading everyones excuses for not going.

Same here - laughable.

The latest one being the lack of welsh players

Did not seem to matter in previous years - any old excuse will do though - until we start looking good for the Prem and then they will forget all that

I have always had a "thing" for welsh/local representation in our squad, in fact all of club football. thats just my personal wish that adds extra to connection to our players for me, its worse than previous years right now, an ignored declan john, we could have got jonny williams in on loan to give us someting different behind the strikers, still didnt stop me renewing, just means that we have the best welsh squad for years with no cardiff players in it, loads of us taking city flags to welsh games makes me feel quite sad in a way!!!!! Oh and singing anti english songs when our team included 8 english players last night thats another conversation! Everybody has different reasons, lifestyle commitments, criterias for commiting to their team, we should really stop slagging off our fans that havent renewed or are ocassional visitors to ccs, as for plastics, we are the plastic capital, yet i think so called plastic fans can always get the bug like i did in 1998 when we played torquay!!!

£2 a pint! Up the revolution!

I wouldn't drink that water down piss if it was free at the ground

Dont support ANYONE else other than CCFC, so count me out as a plastic. Have not missed a game for 6 years and never intend to do so. Surely they stop being fams when they do not turn up when they are able to

Well I was once an Everton 'fan' who went to Wales games and who looked out for all the Welsh club side results including Merthyr. But Cardiff were always my second team. Then I started going to Ninian a few years before Sam H took over and I completely got the bug, went from a 'fan' to a supporter. Even though I didn't really have anyone to influence me or show me the way, I just went on my own, occasionally at first, then friends followed, leading to making new friends down at NP.

Continued Season ticket holder, occasional away games when I get the spare time and money and general obsessive.

So from a plastic to loyal supporter.

I also have a sly dig and tease with my plastic friends, but I must not be a hypocrite and always use myself as an example of leaving the dark side!!

Though I appreciate not all plastics and part time Cardiff fans will get the bug, but I will keep trying to recruit!

Water with a dash of beer goes down well

A sure-fire way of bringing fans back is that old half-time favourite, Buttered Lesbian Wrestling. In times of need, you can always depend on the Lesbo's.
