Tue Jan 08, 2013 4:22 pm

my first cardiff city game was in 1960 when city beat aston villa to get promotion to the old first division.
i am 73 now and waited a long time to see my beloved bluebirds in the top flight.
is my dream about to come true? :old:

I hope so.

Different people support the Bluebirds for many different reasons. For some it is because of the badge, for some it is because of the colour of the shirt and, for others, it is the dream of top flight football.

For your benefit Sir I hope our dream is achieved this season :ayatollah:

Can say same about fa cup. How many fans will ever go to final? Add premier to that and as club we would have done something many clubs will never achieve

We will never get a better chance than this. My first game was in 1961-2 season against Arsenal.
50 years is a long time without top flight football

Lets hope so Darboy.

It may not feel like it, but you have had the benefit of actually seeing cardiff City already play top flight, would be great for it to come back again after such a long time.

It begs the question, how many on here have seen CCFC play a top flight league game? We need a yes or no poll.

Darboy I started going as a schoolboy when Danny Malloy was captain so I also have waited donkey's years for another chance to see my beloved Bluebirds play in the top division.

We have had our disappointments over the years but lately going to Wembley to watch us both in the FA & League cups and to be honest we weren't out played in either final.

Malkie has put together a team of real of battlers and there is genuine quality throughout the team. Sitting 7 points clear at this stage of the season is exciting but we must knuckle down and do the same as we have done lately, but signs are encouraging for us to kick on and get to the EPL :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:
