I'll second that, although John williams "the flying postie" was pretty quick too.

Cohen Griffiths was quick, as was earnshaw on a short sprint. Now though - the quickest we have is probably Chops?? he's certainly the most agile.

agree with kevin Bartlett, his partnership years ago with Jimmy Gilligan was top notch.

Gareth Ainsworth was bloody fast when he was on loan for us a few years back! :ayatollah:

Don't know whether he'd be the fastest ever for city though...

Robert Earnshaw. Without doubt. Dale was quick, Chopra is quick but Earnie was lightning fast.

Bartlett for me.

His finishing was shite though.


Remember 0-0 vs jacks at home, awful game no chances, bartlett 10 yards clear through on goal, only keeper to beat, 'yes, this is the winner', slots past the keeper and............ feckin wide.

Darren Adams likewise, apart for that one wonder-goal he scored.

Cwmbran could beat us though -they had Darren Campbell on their books about 10 years back !

Matt Green I reckon. The few games he played he would out sprint anyone, always first to the ball. The problem was when he reached the ball..... :roll:

Re: fastest ever cardiff player ???

Matt Green surely?

Re: fastest ever cardiff player ???

i saw a interview with cardiff players when matt green signed, they said he was the fastest at the club, also think jobi McAnuff was also mentioned in top 3 at the time

Has everyone forgot Scott Young. 0 to 60 in 5 hours but a true city legend nonetheless. Also a nice bloke, the few times I spoke to him.

Moley.
