I am not saying thats the case. The debate at the time was at what point do people say that have been supporting the club (a) their first ever game or (b) since they started watching the club regularly.
And for the record Gwyn played Rugby for more than 'a couple of years'.

I have watched Cardiff for 46 seasons, the majority of them as a season ticket holder, and over that period on average I take in at least 20 away games a year.
During that period of 46 years I have done many things. I was a member and have even captained the British Judo team and fought all over the world, I played rugby at quite a high level, but even at the peak of the rugby playing years which incidentally I didn't start playing until I was around 29, I still managed to see loads of games home and away, lot's of City games are played at times other than 3 pm on a Saturday, but if it makes your argument seem better, then you can willingly describe me as a plastic supporter if it helps.

Stop putting words in my mouth because that has never been the case and you know it.

Haven't put words in your mouth, you do a better job than I ever could in making yourself look silly, i haven't said you have called me a plastic, i said if it helps your argument9Whatever it is) then you can, which part was putting words in your mouth, and what is the follow up to the contact with Annis regarding the two games, or is that your way of hoping no one notices.![]()

Comedy gold. Wether it be them exposing him or him hitting back. Always great value.
They had a photo on file of him looking "remorseful" which had to be the most used pic from the archives by some distance.

All seriousness i lived there til I was 6, went to school until I was 11, and hung about there until 14/15.
I can honestly say as a 36 yo man I wouldt walk about there now. Whereas when I was 10/11 I would up the shops until late.
Its a scary place now. Heroin has absolutelt destroyed it.

i'm pretty sure most of them aren't going because they think the club are going to miss them, more because they're just really gutted by this rebranding, have lost passion, and just don't want to support the club whilst its wearing red :s
just because the re-branding isnt an issue for you, there's plenty of people who it is an issue for so just grow up and understand that some people have been really hurt by all of this!

I think Annis has made the correct decision, despite being bitterly disappointed with the rebranding he will still be there supporting the team.
