Hopefully this will pick up steam in the morning
Depending on the answers I’ll Taylor part 2 of this too suit
In your opinion also do you think more go too home games/travel away, from the surrounding valleys

Bridgends fine but it ain't home, Rhondda's home but it ain't mine no more !
Catching the train to Cardiff to watch the City early 70's with the Rhondda boys , still got wonderful memories .
Now its the supporters bus from Bridgend , making more wonderful memories.

Your Cardiff history is similar to mine. Born in Glossop Terrace, lived in Llanrumney (moved there from Adamsdown), regularly visited old St Mellons (the Ton Stores), got married and moved to Rumney.
