" HOME COMFORTS FOR CARDIFF CITY "
Latest News on City viewtopic.php?f=2&t=161031
City are unbeaten in the last seven of their opening home matches of the season. The last three years have seen two victories over Huddersfield Town sandwich the Bluebirds’ famous defeat of Manchester City in the Barclays Premier League. Before that, Mark Hudson, Craig Conway and Robert Earnshaw were the scorers in a 3-1 Severnside Derby victory over Bristol City in 2011.
Meanwhile, City fans will also have fond memories of 2009, when Michael Chopra’s brace, a Jay Bothroyd strike and Peter Whittingham’s penalty secured a 4-0 win over Scunthorpe United on a beautiful summer’s day in the capital – a textbook perfect start, and the very first competitive action on CCS soil.
Indeed you have to go back to a 1-0 home defeat to Stoke City in 2007 to find our last loss on the opening home tie of a campaign, while we have won ten and drawn three of fifteen such fixtures since the turn of the millennium!
