I used to go when Kumar was the Owner, I started watching City with my mates at around 14 years old, as although my dad is from Cardiff, he is an egg lover and never took me as a kid

You're right though Wez, the crowds were small back then. I bloody loved it mind

the 93 season was probably the best I remember as a kid this was the season I started going down without my dad or grandad

I left he UK end of 87 and my last game was Rochdale at home. It was around 2,000 people there.

After that I use to get to about 6 games a season and everything felt the same right up till Sam came. After witnessing 50,000 crowds at NP I always felt they would come back. Success and hope and they will come.

I rmemeber playing reading in the FA cup one year and I rmemeber being well impressed with the massive 10K crowd at ninian.

This was in the mid/late 90's I think?

Burnley home 1991/92 16,000 crowd pandamonium on the streets and Bob Bank, I'll never forget that day. BLUEBIRDS.

First game I was 8 (as my mum reminds me she took me down) 17 years ago sitting in the lower grandstand which was the family stand at the time. I really started attending consistently when I was about 14 standing in the bob bank and that's when I really fell in love with Cardiff. Looking back I can barely remember anyone in my school supporting Cardiff, only the 3/4 of us who used to go down. Shows how far we've come though even though our attendances have dropped lately, but success brings crowds it's just a reality of football the world over!

I remember that awesome crowd

I remember going on the pitch last home game of the season against Crewe when Eddie Newton last game was, I think that was 91/2 season ,my sisters boyfriend use to take me down around then lol

City's attendances up to and including the Schoular era were pretty decent. After that era, maybe brought on by the sale of Toshack, apart from the odd exception we went into general decline, the 80s and 90s the club was in total stagnation with gates at an all time low. Like him or loathe him, it was Hammam who revitalised the club. If you had told me in the 80s and 90s we'd be averaging 20k plus crowds for a number of years I would never have believed it. The way things are going though, we could see the club in terminal decline again.

Disagree slightly. Sam did get crowds back but Rick Wright was brilliant at marketing the club and he revitalised fanbase and proved that we were a sleeping giant. Some of the crowds we got in his day were superb. When Sam was first interested I wouldn't mind betting that he'd seen attendance stats from the Wright era.

Rick got the youngsters involved by putting junior bluebird area in lower grandstand
