I'm not sure about this whole Cardiff has been around for 100 years thingy though. It didn't just appear 100 years ago as I have a book with photos dating back over 100 years ago from today

Wikipedia wrote:Cardiff City was formed in 1899 by Bartley Wilson as a way of keeping players from the Riverside Cricket Club together and in shape during the winter months. Their first season saw them playing friendlies against local sides at their Sophia Gardens ground, but in 1900 they joined the Cardiff & District League for their first competitive season. In 1905 Cardiff was granted city status by King Edward VII, and as a result the club put in a request to change their name to Cardiff City, but the request was turned down as they were deemed to be not playing at a high enough level. To combat this they arranged to join the South Wales Amateur League in 1907 and the following year they were granted permission to change the name of the club to Cardiff City.
Not sure where the 100 years has come from, assuming wikipedia is correct that is

We had our centenary year in 1999. I think its a hundred years that we've been playing in the English pyramid and also 100 years this year, that Ninian Park became our home.
